Next aircraft speculation

Glad to be of help, and to dispel odd thoughts 😉

Oh and, worth mentioning remaining stuff from current modules too, like 2 more tomcat variants, an actual AI A-6, AI Draken, etc :))

2? I knew about the GR-95 (?) with ALR-45 (was it that?)

The second is 135 early. We have 135 later one now.

Actually the second is the 135 early only.

The 95GR is basically only what we call the IRIAF variant, which will be the 135 early minus weapons, TCS, etc. plus IRIAF liveries.

Yeah iirc the datalink shares some common features and as a result the documentation for a lot of stuff is classified (even if the implementation of the datalink itself wouldn't be a big deal in DCS for obvious reasons).

Correct. Currently not possible. Not that it wouldnt be a wish of ours to do it.

Obviously its going to be this. 

Saab JAS 39 Gripen - Wikipedia

 

Just may have to wait ~10 years 

Oh my God if that were the case I would be so excited. It would be hard to figure out which plane I would want to fly, the eurofighter or gripen.

Gripen C could also be a possibility, seeing as it's soon replaced by the Gripen E. Likely won't be several years before HB make their next aircraft anyway. 
It's not being replaced. Five countries use the C and are likely to continue doing so.

Even Sweden will keep up to 60 C/D while adding another 60 E.

Only Brazil, the sixth country, will solely operate the E.

I'd wager the C will soldier on in Sweden until the next generation aircraft is taken into service in 2035 or later. Probably later, eh?

Both are very good at what they do, not to mention total eye candy. Although, I'm a bit of a canard slut so it doesn't take much for me 😛

Anyone ever circled back to the very, very first post in this thread?

That is right, a then young Farlander, is now, 7 years later, working for us and a full blown Heatblur dev. And we couldn't be more happy about it.

Some things don't just age well, but brilliantly. 🙂

Oh...

Now you have to reply to this again and clear everything up before it hits all the headlines...

...or just pretend you are not doing MiG-25BM next.

Mig 31 never had a chance, if that was doable, then, at least the Su-30 would have been. I believe the Mig 31 is too secretive and still in service. 

 

The Mig 25; day one purchase. Eagerly waiting. I guess this one would take 2024 late or 25 for it to be a reality.

The first post, the choice was between Mig 25 and 31. Mig 31 never had possibility; too secretive. A Mig 27 or Su-30 could have been the choice in place of the Mig 31. Either way, Mig 25 is good indeed.

Uh, we're not doing a MiG-25 guys... Not saying it wouldn't be cool, but I think we have our hands full for the foreseeable future. My comment was not even remotely about that.

Oh well...thanks for clearing that up. It was too unbelievable anyway, a former USSR era fastest secretive plane. Hard to get solid data on.

 

I am already very eager for the release of the most iconic F4 Phantom. 😁

Looks like ED is going to be unable to make a FF MiG-29 9.12 due to the current geopolitical situation so maybe Heatblur and TrueGrit could make a FF German MiG-29 (both the non-upgraded and upgraded models) thanks to their connections with the Luftwaffe.

You mean...[pissy comment removed]...Why not just say so?

 

A change of tack from me, returning a type I've not fanboi'd since Il-2 days:

G-OMHD-Canberra-0889.jpg

Here's lookin' at you, kid!

She had a huge number of operators, roles, years in service...it's got a lot going for it. Heaps of personality, so naturally no other developer but HB could do it justice 🙂

🤣 Agreed! Other options exist, shown off in a lovely 3/4 shot:

For more sectional and profile views, how about these courtesy of the RAAF in Vietnam trim:

Better?
