Title says it all really. All generic RAF squadron codes have 'always' been wrong in DCS WW2 aircraft. Port-side only. It would've taken about 25 seconds research to see that historical RAF codes always had the 2-letter squadron code 'before' the roundel. followed by the individual aircraft letter 'after' the roundel. This is a huge oversight and I'm sure, one that would've easily been fixed but never has. Is there hope that this can indeed be fixed?

Hi Max. Many thanks for your response. They're all my missions from the editor & no views are locked out. the 'enforce' tick is in place on Externasl Views & F10 Map All in the Mission Editor options. It's also across the board, in all forms of DCS missions or Campaigns for me. I've not changed any settings whatsoever since the update so I'm going to put it down to a very strange anomoly on my part & try backing up/deleting the config folder etc. Good at least to know it's not a problem that's affecting all.

Tried on F-4U, Spitfire & P-47D in Marianas WW2 map, Caucasus & Normandy 2.0. I have 3 PC's & 3 accounts (LAN etc) & same results on all PC's since update. No F7 views, no F9, no recycling through other a/c using F2. This is so strange indeed.

Anyone else having 'F' view problems since this update? This is so strange & has only occurred since the update. F1, F2, F3, F4 & F5 keys all work as per normal on player aircraft but F2 no longer cycles other aircraft. F7 no longer jumps to ground units & F9 no longer cycles shipping. Ctrl + F11 seems to work as normal (as free camera). I've tried it on different keyboards, no mods active, different aircraft, different maps & have even checked the keybindings (which are fine btw, F7 registers as F7 ground units view when pressed, and so on). Never experienced this problem ever before and all was fine before this patch. What on earth is going on? I've put a post in the views section of bugs but it's not getting much coverage there.

Since downloading the latest update (October 2025), my 'F' keys are suddenly no longer working. They seem ok for 'player aircraft' ... but that's about it. F7 no longer works to cycle ground units, F9 is dead (no longer cycles shipping), F2 will show external view of player aircraft only & further presses of F2 no longer cycles other aircraft. I've checked the key bindings & nothing has changed there, just ingame. My keyboard hasn't changed, no peripheral changes & have disabled all mods as per usual with new updates. Tried different modes (mission editor, mission, quick mission, different keyboards also).

"Aircraft are loud?" Not the most helpful tip ever as this is clearly an oversight. AI Corsairs have absolutely no spatial sound like all other vehicles & aircraft in DCS. No matter how far away the aircraft is, within a distance of around 1/2 to 3/4 mile, they will sound as if they're right next to you until they're outside that 1/2 mile bracket then they're silent. It's very distracting tbh.

Checked other created missions on the Normandy 2.0 map & same thing. All other AI units like B-17G, C-47, Spit, P-51, P-47 etc are fine but every A-20G is minute in scale. Ah great thankyou. Good to see it's been reported already.

This is a weird one. Since the DCS 2.9.20.15010 update, my A.I. A-20G aircraft are miniscule in scale. The pic shows the A-20G IN THE FOREGROUND with the crew standing 'behind' it after engine shut down. So far, only tried with the A-20G on the Marinas WW2 map at Orote airfield on Guam. I was working on this mission of mine last weekend & all was fine so has to be the latest patch as the culprit.

Nope. Bypass the MiG. Bring on the Work horse

Tried that ... nothing. Nothing under 'access', 'maintenance', 'panel', 'door', 'ammo', 'gun'. But then I came across it in 'Systems' .... Service Hatches Open/Close ... Right Alt + Right Shift + H Problem solved lol.

What about the gun ammo panel doors on the nose that is shown in 4 out of the 6 product pics on the 'Details' section of the F-5E Remasterd? I can't find any bindings or find any way of opening those outer panels? Would be a very strange and slightly mis leading selling feature if you couldn't access them when the product pics rely so heavily toward them.

Get a grip. It's just a game with hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars worth of invested modules, tens of thousands of pounds worth of sim equipment. It's just a game that stops you from utilising all of that with a simple Login discrepency. If it is 'just a game' scenario with you, why bother to become involved in this thread with such a child-like passive aggressive comment?!

2 PC's for me but I have 2 seperate accounts & each PC is only ever logged in to its individual account so there is never any crossover etc & besides, this problem has only become really bad in the last few weeks whereas I've had a problem-free time of it with multiple accounts for years.

Me too. It's so frustrating. Especially when mission building. It's now a common occurrance and has been for around 3 weeks to a month now.

Yep same here. The noise is insane after a few mins. The best WW2 bird of DCS currently unflyable. Tried disabling all mods, tried at cold start, hot start, no difference & seemingly no way to rid of it.
