NaCH Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 There are already plenty of opponents for the Tomcat in the game. Eagle, Flanker, Fulcrum, upcoming Hornet. The Tomcat can use the AIM-54's long range as an advantage to get it's driver into the position they want to be in, it has a very strong radar, and it's got plenty of power. Assuming the F14 will be done at the same level of the MIG21... I hope we have an opponent with the same level of detail and to me the actual F15/SU27/MIG29 are not in the same level. Not to mention that and f14 will never go against f15 or f18 unless they plan to simulate Iran's F14A with of course with some modifications in the electronics. (Iran / Iraq) So far the the only series that has same level of opponents are the WWII with P51D /FW190 and 109. Soon we will have the MIG 15 against Sabres & P51d. To me it would really nice to have M III, F4, F104s, F100, F1, MIG23. But I know I don't represent the majority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester Darrak Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Simulating Iranian Tomcats? Easy! Just roll a dice before you flip a switch. Unless you're 5 or higher you are not allowed to do so. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aginor Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 By now those Iranian F-14s are completely different aircraft, compared to what they originally were. IIRC they have Russian engines and Chinese avionics. So I guess we don't even know what they are capable of, in some regards they might even be better than the old Tomcats we know.

JaNk0 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 The reason why I think it's not a F-14 is this statement by Cobra. Some of you will be pleased, some of you will be very disappointed and some of you will, without a doubt, want our heads on a pike. Hence my doubts...

Paradox Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 The reason why I think it's not a F-14 is this statement by Cobra. Some of you will be pleased, some of you will be very disappointed and some of you will, without a doubt, want our heads on a pike. Hence my doubts... Just to play into the delusion for a minute: If it's an F-14A it could be seen by some as a "so near yet so far" move since the F-14D is so much more capable. (I might be one of those people). Probably nobody would want heads on pikes for any F-14 variant but it might not be disappointment proof. But I'm 90% convinced that you're right, it might not be possible to accurately simulate this machine in the next 20 years without express permission from Northrop Grumman and accurate insider knowledge.

Jona33 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Has anyone considered that Cobra may be changing his avatar in response to the discussion, not leading it. So after everyone mentioned the F-14 he switched it to a goose etc. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAW_Blaze Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 What if by "missing a digit" he actually meant that the digit is wrong? When it comes to trying to guess something if you actually fail, it technically could be called a "miss" in my opinion. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aginor Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) What if by "missing a digit" he actually meant that the digit is wrong? When it comes to trying to guess something if you actually fail' date=' it technically could be called a "miss" in my opinion. :D[/quote'] I thought about that as well. That would mean it is a fighter jet with one digit, but not a F-4. Not much possibilities if we assume he didn't lie when he said it is not a fighter flown by the USMC. EDIT: And if mattebubben is right, well, it could be almost everything. EDIT: F-20 Tigershark: two digits after the dash, Marines didn't fly it (nobody did), people will be very disappointed (yep, lots of guys here) others will like it (those who like every plane, regardless of what it is) Edited October 29, 2014 by Aginor DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nefron Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'm certainly surprised that it could be an F-14. It wasn't something I expected after the MiG-21. But then again, I see no reason for them to continue playing this game if its not the F-14. Its just setting everybody up for disappointment, and it makes no sense to mess with people like that. They'll just end up pissing off a part of the community greatly. So, I believe it really is an F-14, or its the most pointless trolljob in the history of DCS.
