mattebubben Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Even as i´ve been a huge Buc fan, i have to say that the moment we get A/G radar ready for integration, our #1 project is the F-15E...after that, many others (including a Buc) would be in line.. Best regards Prowler What about the A-7? =( Does that mean the F-15E will be before the A-7? =( Edited March 7, 2016 by mattebubben
Sierra99 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 - Blackburn/Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer S2 - Unquestionably the best low level strike/ground attack aircraft ever produced! I question this...perhaps the argument could be made for the best BRITISH Strike/Attack aircraft ever produced but overall...it falls short of the A-6 intruder and F-16... - Best looking military aircraft - no question! Except for anything produced in the United States in the 70s. Even the Warthog is better looking.:music_whistling: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Primary Computer ASUS Z390-P, i7-9700K CPU @ 5.0Ghz, 32GB Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 @ 3200Mhz, ZOTAC GeForce 1070 Ti AMP Extreme, Samsung 970 EVO M.2 NVMe drives (1Tb & 500 Gb), Windows 10 Professional, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS, Thrustmaster Warthog Stick, Thrustmaster Cougar Throttle, Cougar MFDs x3, Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals and TrackIR 5. -={TAC}=-DCS Server Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3, i7-3770K CPU @ 3.90GHz, 32GB G.SKILL Ripjaws DDR3 @ 1600Mhz, ZOTAC GeForce® GTX 970.

tombeckett2285 Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 - Blackburn/Hawker Siddeley Buccaneer S2 - Unquestionably the best low level strike/ground attack aircraft ever produced! I question this...perhaps the argument could be made for the best BRITISH Strike/Attack aircraft ever produced but overall...it falls short of the A-6 intruder and F-16... - Best looking military aircraft - no question! Except for anything produced in the United States in the 70s. Even the Warthog is better looking.:music_whistling: The Bucc and the A6 are very evenly matched aircraft. The Buccaneer is superior in terms of manoeuvrability and performance, as well as it's self defence ability which the A6 lacks; it is probably fair to say it is a better airframe, but the A6 benefitted enormously with superior avionics from day one. If the Buccaneer had been upgraded throughout it's life in a similar way to the A6 then there would have been no doubt of the Bucc's superiority. As it is, the strengths and weakness of both airframes even themselves out in comparative terms. The F16 is not a strike/attack aircraft - it is a lightweight multirole fighter. Considering it is twenty years newer as well, I still don't think an F-16A would make a better bomb truck. If you put a LITENING pod and the Tornado Ground Mapping/Terrain Following radars on a Buccaneer there wouldn't be much to touch it for ground pounding, even today. Well of course, looks are all subjective - but I won't even justify the A-10 comparison with a comment.....:lol: "The only replacement for a Buccaneer is a Buccaneer".
WinterH Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 At the risk of sounding instigative, I'd have to say Bucc, for me, is one of the ugliest combat aircraft ever, which is some achievement since it is difficult to make aircraft ugly :). A-7 and even A-10 look much, much better than it, and Viggen does not even compare in same league as far as looks go :D. But yeah, obviously beauty is in eye of beholder as they say :). That said, it does indeed seem to be one of the most capable low level attackers built. Still, as a module I'd personally prefer any of A-4,A-6,A-7,MiG-27,Su-17,Su-24,Tornado,F-111 or Jaguar over it. Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script
mattebubben Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I love the Low level type of missions that the AJ 37,Bucc F-111 etc were made to do with low level high speed flying. And i would have nothing against a Bucc being made. But on the other hand With the Viggen comming (wich was very much all about low level flying where 20m above land or 10m above sea was a common flight altitude) and the A-7 wich also does that type of mission / flying very well id say a Eastern aircraft for that type of mission would be prefered instead of a third western aircraft (atleast for me) And while i would have nothing against a Bucc i would personally not get one. I will get both the Viggen and the A-7 when it comes out and as such i dont see anything that the Bucc can do that those to aircraft cant do aswell or better and as such since im not british nor have i ever had a facination with the Buccaneer i dont see myself getting it. But then again i have full understanding for Preference. For example i have full understanding of ppl (especially britts etc) that would take a Bucc over a Viggen due to a Fondness of the Bucc / the fact it was operated by their nation. And also in my eyes if they are gonna make a Two seat aircraft they might aswell just make a F-4 Or Tornado =P. But hey thats just me =).
Fer_Fer Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I am the only one here that want's more 70-80's fighters?
mattebubben Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) I am the only one here that want's more 70-80's fighters? 60s-80s designs are actually what i want the most in the game atm. Id rather have more 60s-80s aircraft then have more modern later 90s and 2000s aircraft. Mostly because i love the older airplanes. But also i think those kinds of aircraft makes for more fun gameplay. Getting away from The Spamraam combat and Super high tech weapons and instead going to 60s-80s combat with less advanced missiles and more close in combat. And also 60s to mids 80s designs are easier to get enough info in as they are less classified. So we can get both western and eastern designs of that timeframe. While more modern designs are harder to get info about and as such those timeframes are less balanced in game terms as its harder to get aircraft for both sides from the same timeperiod. (90s-present designs) Edited March 8, 2016 by mattebubben 1
Jacks Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 Mattbubben, could agree more. I would prefer to see more vintage jets as they are complex enough yet generally unclassified so a higher level of accuracy can be reached. Of all the vintage jets I would love to see the English Electric Lightning so RAZBAM please consider developing this. System Specs: i7 8700k @ 5.0GHz (not delidded), ASRock Extreme4 Z370 MOBO, EVGA GTX 1080 SC 8GB, 32GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200MHz DDR4 RAM, Samsung Evo 240GB SSD, Samsung Evo 500GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Noctura NH-D15S Heat Sink, Acer VE278H 27" 1080p Monitor, Ocukus Rift CV1. Controllers: TrackIR 5, Thrustmaster HOTAS X, Saitek Throttle Quadrant (with DIY removable collective mod), Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals. Just trying to keep my number of takeoffs and landings equal!
PiedDroit Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I am the only one here that want's more 70-80's fighters? Not at all! I'm most interested by those too. See mattebubben's post above, I agree with all his points.

mattebubben Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 I believe another developer has an F6 variant of the Lightning in their roadmap. Probably VEAO.
Cool Breeze Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Probably Veao. That's the one!

mattebubben Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Well they have it on their roadmap but id be suprised if we see it before the early 2020s...
King_Hrothgar Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 VEAO has just about every fixed wing aircraft used by the UK's military between 1940 and 2016 on their roadmap. I don't think it is one they are actively developing and so is fair game. That is one of the few 1950's onwards combat aircraft I'd definitely skip though.
joanvalley Posted March 11, 2016 Author Posted March 11, 2016 Okay guys, this a tiny bit of what I'm working on after reading all your suggestions, can't give you more right now because It's at a very early stage of development but this will surely get your motors running, better yet, your jet engines:
WinterH Posted March 11, 2016 Posted March 11, 2016 Hmm interesting, that looks like Tornado's vertical tail. Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script
