Just to cast in my two cents: clearly, we do accept unrealistic "tier 2" even now in DCS and in many other simulations. For example having Kuznetsov in F4 AF or having a simulator of the Comanche in the first place.

 

Also, there are a lot of things that might not currently be realistic, but would be plausible in the case of a large shooting war. For example, mounting a rudimentary RWR on tha Ka-50 would be plausible, and giving a handheld GPS receiver to Mi-8 and Su-25 pilots has been already tried in conflict zones. Also, carrying triple mavericks with the A-10 is no-go, but in a Fulda gap-scenario it would work.

 

So I'm all for plausible possibilities and house rules on servers. Like no nukes or Triple mavs.

 

So, I'm not for silliness, but if we have to have a war simulation, then we also have to make some assumptions and call it 2025 scenario or something :) Maybe the mods could move this in to a separate thread; I'd say this is not only about the advertised AA missiles of the Ka-50.

I don't dispute that and think we're mostly on the same page. And I don't have a problem with it personally. It's been in good taste thus far and has been a good middle ground.

 

Afterall we often fly missions of the what-may-have-been or what-may-be sort and filling a need in war often leads to improvisation and development. We're all well aware of guns on F-4's in Vietnam as an example.

 

So why not suppose in the right situation either beam riding A-G missiles on MiG-21's or antiship missiles on C-101's, both things that based on real world input seem fairly feasible couldn't have been.

 

I was just saying if they could be all things to all people having a few categories of realism could silence these discussions.

 

It exists or existed in real life T1. Otherwise depending how far removed from reality T2 or T3... Maybe a thought for DCS 3.0.
