A -14D would be fantastic... I always think that if the F-14 could have survived 10 more years, we would be seeing a resurgence just like we are with the F-15 and F/A-18 Super Hornet, and to a different extent, the F-16.

None of them. Sweeping the wings manually is pretty janky stuff.

Heatblur Devs, Love the F-14. I've always dreamed and hoped that someone would release an in depth F-14 simulation. That said, I do have one gripe. I usually use the assisted start-up option to start the aircraft. In order to "check" each item off, you currently have to press CTRL+4. CTRL+3 aborts the start-up process and causes Jester to stop running through his checklist (and I assume to undo the work already done). Because I usually play in the dark, I sometimes fat finger the CTRL+3 combination when I mean to press CTRL+4. Is there any way that abort start-up can be made to fit CTRL+2 on the Jester wheel instead of CTRL+3? Also, can we get a checklist on the kneeboard please? Thanks!

Not my video, but informative.

I feel the Fw190 is also underperforming in speed and climb... I am wondering though if it is linked to Kommandogerat, which doesn't seem quite right to me. I don't know enough of the technical details to confirm or deny, but you do seem to know more.

Agree Vatikus... This is a simulation... We paid good money for the module, so I want the whole airplane. This is the closest I will ever get to flying an FW190, and DCS is renowned for study sim level products, so it should be as close to right as possible. In the field, as you obviously know, the Luftwaffe was constantly reconfiguring the FW190 to fit all sorts of missions and pilot preferences. These configurations ranged from simply changing the arrangement of the guns (or removing them all together) to adding armor, to using a different propeller (of which there are three types used on the A8 if my understanding is correct). Lots of other little field mods as well. Unlike others, I have found the 190 to be a passable PvP aircraft. I would like to have the ability to customize my loadouts like the actual Luftwaffe pilots could and did so that I can be better equipped for certain missions or even play styles. And I like to play offline, so I want to have the ability to armor up and go B-17 busting.

My wish is that ED makes Rustsatz kits an option, preferably selectable from the ground loadout menu. I would especially love the ability to load out with the R8 "SturmBock"...R11 would be interesting too... I also wish for more weapons, drop tanks, selectable shell type (Minengeschoss for some of the R variants?), the radios and other WIP items to be finished... And more late war variants maybe in the future? :D

French Nc.900 would be cool. Czech Avia S.90 paint job would be cool as well. Turkey operated some A3's and A4's I believe. Might be fun to paint up for Persian Gulf... If ED will add the R8 kit, paint options expand some as well.
