List of landmarks in DCS World


Recommended Posts

Hello pilots!

 

In the midst of my mission making, I thought it would be a good idea to compile a list of all the neat locations and things of the like around the Caucasus map, and maybe Nevada after it's release. Feel free to contribute to this thread, and I'll add them to this list.

 

  • Anapa:
    Football (soccer) stadium, 44°53' 0" N, 37°18' 53" E
  • Commo Tower:
    43°10' 44" N, 40°18' 28" E
  • Dam
    42°45' 35" N, 42°1' 52" E
  • Krasnodar:
    Football stadium, 45°1' 42" N, 38°59' 33" E
    MiG-19 monument at gates to Krasnodar-Center, 45°5' 26" N, 38°58' 1" E
    Largest lake in game, 45° 0' 0" N, 39° 18' 0" E (if someone knows it's name, let me know)
  • Kobuleti:
    Unlisted airstrip 41°50' 31" N, 41°47' 52" E

    Two unlisted airstrips, 42°14' 49" N, 42°37' 29" E and 42°15' 58" N, 42°39' 31" E
  • Maykop:
    Small football (soccer, again) field: 44° 35' 43" N, 40° 7' 53" E
  • Mt. Elbrus
    43°21' 0" N, 42° 26' 0" E
  • Nalchik:
    Race track, 43° 30' 30" N, 43°36' 55" E
  • Novorossiysk:
    Largest port in the game, 44°43' 25" N, 37°47' 50" E
    Yet another football stadium, 44°40' 56" N, 37°47' 7" E
  • Observatory:
    43°21' 8" N, 40°17' 28" E
  • Oil Refinery:
    44°49' 26" N, 38°36' 22" E
  • Roki Tunnel
    42°36' 33" N, 44°11' 3" E
  • Sochi:
    Two oil platforms off the coast, 43°33' 31" N, 39°40' 14" E and 43°32' 21" N, 39°43' 14" E
  • Tblisi:
    Two football stadiums, 41°42' 43" N, 44°45' 4" E and 41°44' 3" N, 44°46' 57" E

 

(If you've got more, feel free to let me know! I know I don't have much, but I'm kind of relying on you guys :))

 

Many thanks to Mike Busutil for making his flight plan of all these locations! I've attached the file to this post now. However not all listed locations are in the flight plan, I've added some since he made it. I'll update it on my own later.

Ah yes, I remember that from the P-51's challenge campaign. If you can get me a location (it can be relative, say "45km bearing 075 from this airport" or something, I'll throw it in.)

Since you are starting out, maybe list rough coordinates from the map for said items?

1) Mount Elbrus on the border between Georgia and Russia. (It´s Europes highest mountain).

 

2) Oil platforms along the coast off Sochi.

 

3) MiG-19 (?) on pole at Krasnodar-Center airport.

 

4) Roki-tunnel at the RUS-GRG border (in South Ossetia)

 

5) A giant water reservoir in the western parts of Georgia near Abkhazia.

Do you mean latitude and longitude? Hope so, because I'm starting work on that.

List is up to date with everything so far. I found that dam, too :D it's in a town a bit NE of Zugdidi.

Hi,

 

I remember an old video (when the Crimean Peninsula was still a place to fly, was FC1.1). You can dowload it on flankertraining.com.

 

Here is the link: http://flankertraining.com/ironhand/flightbasics.htm

The video's name is "The Crimean Tour: Taking in the Sights." I am not posting a direct download link since the file is quiet big (355Mb).

 

To be honest, I am not convinced that it reveals anything special. But it was fun to watch once :P

That's exactly what I meant. :beer:

Haha, that would have been useful if we were still flying LOMAC or Flaming Cliffs.

 

The big bridge north of Sochi.

Got a location or image or something of it? There's several bridges around Sochi, not sure which you mean.

 

That's exactly what I meant. :beer:

Cool, glad I got that one right.

There are a few oil fields around Krymsk/Krasnodar. I don't have the exact locations, but they make good targets.

Awaiting: DCS F-15C

Superb list.

What about the train station at the coast with parked tanks on wagons?

It is South of a big city (Sochi?).

 

Wonderful, I'll have a look-see as soon as I can get to my computer, and then see what I can do. As for those trains, I'm pretty sure they appear in several cities although so do the football fields, so I'll throw them in.

 

On that note, I've changed this into a bulleted list for aesthetic purposes :)

 

Edit: might I add, I won't be around my computer for a few hours... >_<

Cool, I'll check it out. Not really sure if a railway in a valley is really special enough to make the list though, bro :/

That mission's not compatible with the current DCS version, is it?

 

Edit: Also, I can't seem to find those oil fields. Any help here?

could someone build a mission with all these points in, I'd love to fire up a chopper and spend an entire Saturday flying the Shark around to all the points

 

 

Yes, but I would prefer to get Lat Lon coordinates or MGRS...

 

I am planning to build a flight plan for this tonight.
