Cybermat47 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) I'm enjoying DCS World a lot. The Su-25 T is the best ground attack plane I've flown in any flight sim, and the TF-51 D is a beauty to cruise around in. So, I'm looking for another module to play. I'm looking for a Vietnam or modern fighter (I'm not very interested in WWII or Korean War aircraft, as I already have flight sims with those aircraft), and preferably cheap, because I really don't have much money. Perhaps a non-Russian one, too, so it's as different as possible from the Su-25 T. What would you guys suggest? Edited July 24, 2015 by Cybermat47 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Joni Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 If a vietnam modern fighter is what you want, then get the Mig-21, it is an amazing simulation and very fun to fly. Good luck.

Getting them all is certainly my end goal :) If a vietnam modern fighter is what you want, then get the Mig-21, it is an amazing simulation and very fun to fly. Good luck. The MiG-21 is a very retro looking plane, I'll be sure to check it out :thumbup: Edited July 24, 2015 by Cybermat47 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
AussieFX Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 The Mig-21 is a blast. It's not the easiest in the world to fly but it's not ridiculously hard where you end up parking it either. It will give you a lot of satisfaction. (I still have the odd landing oopsie if I don't concentrate) Weapons are easy enough to deploy, so no massive learning curve like the A-10C. It's fast and can deploy nukes. It is worth every cent. :thumbup:
Cybermat47 Posted July 24, 2015 Author Posted July 24, 2015 Thanks, guys. The MiG-21 is a bit too expensive for me, so I went for the F-15 C - but the MiG-21 is certainly on my wishlist :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
lanmancz Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 Get the FC3 package. If you do not require advanced system modeling it has the biggest bang for your buck.

felthat Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 FC3 and Mig21 (actually wait for sale and get em all)
King_Hrothgar Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 The MiG-21Bis didn't enter service until after the Vietnam war ended. That said, I highly recommend it as it is a lot of fun. Systems are fairly simple on it though using them effectively is another matter entirely. The A-10C and Ka-50 (Blackshark 2) are also very popular.
