toni Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Hey guys ! What do you tell me about developing a full E2-C/D Hawkeye ? Would be quite interesting , multicrew capable with working Early Warning Radar + consoles . I think is a MUST in parallel with a Tomcat + Hornet environment + Naval Ops . :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proof Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Sure it would be interesting, I wouldn't buy it personally, but it would be fun to fly along side people putting it to good use; but I think calling it 'a must' is a slight exaggeration.

Solty Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Meh. I'd rather see an electronic warfare or SEAD plane like Intruder and Prowler :P (and those would rather be long term, other CAS and fighter planes are more interesting) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]In 21st century there is only war and ponies.

kingfish Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I would be interested in some more "utility" role aircraft, AWACS, EW, SEAD, etc. How much fun would multiplayer missions be with human AWACS? Player JTAC is already an awesome experience, AWACS seems like the logical continuation. I mostly fly the F-18, and mostly as a flight sim rather than a combat sim.

FSKRipper Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Meh. I'd rather see an electronic warfare or SEAD plane like Intruder and Prowler :P (and those would rather be long term, other CAS and fighter planes are more interesting) Nice idea but I would not expect a 3rd Party developer team to give us a high fidelity ECM aircraft as long as electronic warfare is only covered very superficial in DCS. Same belongs to AWACS in my opinion. There are some tools which give you a nice ATC view of DCS. No need to condemn a pilot to move you around for 6 hours in circles when you could simulate AWACS with Teamspeak. For bombers, yes a nice idea but not before ED finished the multicrew Feature. i9 9900K @ 5,0GHz | 1080GTX | 32GB RAM | 256GB, 512GB & 1TB Samsung SSDs | TIR5 w/ Track Clip | Virpil T-50 Stick with extension + Warthog Throttle | MFG Crosswind pedals | Gametrix 908 Jetseat [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerd1000 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Or bombers? Anyone? How about a F-111C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Legend Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 How about a F-111C? Sounds good, although I prefer Russian birds. But I'll take any bomber actually! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Because MiG - 9. That's why... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimitryNZ Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Sounds good, although I prefer Russian birds. But I'll take any bomber actually! I would love to see a SU-24M. TBH I would be extremely happy to ever see a 2-seater aircraft which can launch multiple anti-ground and anti-ship missiles along with precision bombs (which includes the F-111C, an aircraft which I would also like to see). Multirole aircraft for the win! :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the F-111 just because its so iconic in Australia, but the Fencer is awesome too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFunk1606688187 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I wanna see the F-111 just for the ejection system. Warning: Nothing I say is automatically correct, even if I think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlankerKiller Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I think a realistic air or ground radar that is player controllable would be a really great thing in DCS. There are many ways to implement this, from having the F10 screen "see" only what the AWACS sees, to fully modeling an E2. As for people buying it, I'm sure some would and some wouldn't. I'm not championing an E2 ,I doubt we will ever see one in game, I am saying that military aviation is a big complex thing with each aircraft and type having it's own challenges and bringing it's own strengths to the fight. As time goes on and DCS progresses I hope to see a little something for every one in this sim because the more people that are playing it the better it will be for all of us.

NeilWillis Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Look up lotatc, it is basically what you are describing Agreed. We ought to have a comprehensive abstract AWACS capability, but to expect some poor guy to pilot the E3 aircraft for hours on end, just flying round in circles - really? DCS World has the potential to expand in any direction, including much more in depth electronic warfare. The question any developer would ask first is how well would it sell? Can't see a huge market for aircraft that just loiter out of harms way with long endurance flights. Who here would enjoy doing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you could just turn on the autopilot and operate the radar yourself. I wouldn't be to excited about an E-3, but I'd EASILY pre-purchase an E-2 and play as AWACS online (if DCS had a good voip system). :D -Col. Russ Everts opinion on surface-to-air missiles: "It makes you feel a little better if it's coming for one of your buddies. However, if it's coming for you, it doesn't make you feel too good, but it does rearrange your priorities."
