BavarianPilot Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 The F16-A could be a great mod idea using the A10-A FC3 avionics. Im wondering when this module could eventually be announced. Could be after all the content of the Hornet is included? Or other work have to be done before (maps maybe) ? 2.5 is almost "stable" so they are focusing on maps , environment ( carriers , ATC , etc ) and aircrafts. Could it be 2029? Am I too optimistic?

frixon28 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Could it be 2019? Am I too optimistic? Yes you are imo. I'm calling early 2021 or Christmas 2020. Anyone else placing bets?
Vitormouraa Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Yes you are imo. I'm calling early 2021 or Christmas 2020. Anyone else placing bets? Why would I? :) SplashOneGaming Discord https://splashonegaming.com
Boberro Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 Yes you are imo. I'm calling early 2021 or Christmas 2020. Anyone else placing bets? I bet it will come out when I would be bald. For now I am still like Chewbacca, so... xD Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make...

ED Team NineLine Posted April 24, 2018 ED Team Posted April 24, 2018 @Nineline, Viper or Falcon? :D I believe they stated a Viper. I bet it will come out when I would be bald. For now I am still like Chewbacca, so... xD Will you shave your head if it comes out before you are bald? Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**
Vitormouraa Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 I believe they stated a Viper. Viper is just a nickname that the pilots gave to the F-16. They didn't like Fighting Falcon at all :D Same thing at the end of the day... SplashOneGaming Discord https://splashonegaming.com
Home Fries Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 Same reason pilots refer to the A-10 as the Warthog, not the Thunderbolt. -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide

Well it will be cool in DCS as well, so it should only be known as the Viper here too ;) Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**
Vitormouraa Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Agreed. Viper sounds much better for sure. Btw, nice signature! SplashOneGaming Discord https://splashonegaming.com

beppe_goodoldrebel Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 The more I see about F16A the more I think it will be a good addition in the DCS world... It fits very well against aircraft already here (F5, Mig21 ) and incoming ( mig19 ) A good mod idea at least...
ED Team cofcorpse Posted May 4, 2018 ED Team Posted May 4, 2018 Ok Only C Great videos, it was fun to watch!:thumbup:
Wizard_03 Posted May 5, 2018 Posted May 5, 2018 The more I see about F16A the more I think it will be a good addition in the DCS world... We already have the F-16A its called F-5E.
