  1. I don't believe that there will be a video today, more likely tomorrow Friday they will announce whether or not the video will be released

Now that Christmas has passed, let us reflect on this year and the current status of the MiG-17F module. • Flight dynamics are 95+% complete • Cockpit model and texturing are 95+% complete • External 3D model is complete and undergoing texturing (60% complete) • Systems modeling is in progress (15% complete) In addition to the module status, we’re taking the opportunity to introduce you to the ASP-4N gunsight and SRD-1M radio range finder (gun radar). The MiG-17F is equipped with the ASP-4N in combination with the SRD-1M. The ASP-4N is a gyro-stabilized, optical, semi-automatic gunsight, similar to but an improvement on the ASP-3N gunsight used in the MiG-15. However, unlike the ASP-3N, the ASP-4N has 3 modes: fixed, gyro and gun radar. A mechanical backup sight is available in case of failure. The SRD-1M is a radio range finder works together with the ASP-4N and can only be used against aerial targets. The radio range finder sends out short periodical electro-magnetic pulses and receives them when returning from a target, distance is calculated and sent to the gunsight. Gunsight Modes: Fixed • The reticle is fixed in position, where the wingspan and distance are manually adjustable, as in ASP-3N gunsight. Gyro mode • Reticle moves automatically approximating the flight of the NR-23 cannon rounds; gyro sight is programmed only with the ballistics of the NR-23 cannon. • It is engaged by setting the handle on the left side of gunsight to gyro mode. • Wingspan and distance are manually adjustable. • Gyro mode is only to be used in aerial combat. Gun radar mode: • Set the gunsight to gyro mode. • Turn on the SRD-1 gun radar located on the left wall, aft of the throttle. • Gun radar relay needs to warm up for approximately 90 seconds by turning ON the high AC voltage switch on the console. Turn off High AC voltage switch after 90-120 seconds. • Gun radar tracking is automatic, the radar chooses the most convenient target plane and locks it on. • Two lamps mounted on the left side of the sight head note a gun radar target tracking. Bottom green lamp illuminates when the target is locked at a distance of 300-2000 meters. Top red lamp illuminates when the target is locked at the ideal shooting distance of 400-1200 meters. • Radar determines the distance and shows the ideal shooting solution. • Ballistics of the gun radar can be switched between NR-23 or N-37 mm cannons. Enjoy the pictures and please note that everything is subject to change. All of us at Red Star would like to thank you for your support over the last year. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year

    What next?

    It is not yet confirmed if the next map will be the Balkans and it may be too early for them to decide how big the final map will be And of course I hope it's the Balkans but there's a chance it won't be, I believe they'll announce from 2024 what the next map will be

    What next?

    Does this mean the next map you develop has to do with the Balkans?
  6. A-7E Corsair II development updates https://flyingironsimulations.com/blogs/news/dcs-a-7e-development-update
  7. Sure Yes, I know, I don't have a capacity problem, I just don't have, as I said, a fast connection (I have 50mbs because I live on an island in Greece, which unfortunately does not have such good connections) And of course, the bigger the update, the better I guess...
  8. As far as I know, quite a few things will change in the DCS core and also because I have all the DCS maps e.g. the Sinai which has, if I'm not mistaken, an expansion with new airports, buildings, etc. maybe the South Atlantic too
  9. Is there a chance that the update is too big? So is the 50gb somewhere? I don't have a fast connection, that's why I'm asking
  10. Do we know if there is a new map in development? Syria and Normandy 2.0 are complete I think
