What is "The Battle Simulator"

[Coder]

Hello there.

 

I found the following site: http://www.thebattlesim.com/

What is "The Battle Simulator"?

Does ED / TFC develop a highely realistic simulator for military use?

 

Why is, as example, the Air-to-Ground-Radar shown here: http://www.thebattlesim.com/?end_pos=44&lang=en&scr=list&page=1#523 not modeled in DCS?

 

What is the difference between DCS and The Battle Simulator? Can I use The Battle Simulator?

Screens look like FC1

Was there a Air-to-Ground Radar in FC1? Why do they have trouble developing one if there was one already? I'm curious, cause I never heard of "The battle sim.." ;)

Interesting:

 

• Currently nine flyable aircraft (A-10A, F-15C, Su-27, MiG-29, MiG-29, Su-25, Su-25T, Su-33, Ka-50) with more under development (F-16, F/A-18 ).
  

This made me smile a little:

 

Terrain from any part of the world and to any level of detail can be developed in a short time frame.

The general purpose and usability, under my point of view the same difference that occurs between ArmA 3 and VBS 3 so TBS is for military training and DCS for entertainment, and after ED have completed EDGE technology using as a testing ground the public entertainment, they'll move EDGE technology to military training purpose, the same happened with Bohemia Interactive, they used ArmA 3 as a testing ground for new engine technology and then they moved that technology to VBS 3.

 

Very smart and thankfully everyone will benefit about this business strategy, entertainment customers, professional customers and hopefully ED itself.

 

I'm glad that all rumors about ED is running out of buisness due to the cost of making new maps and RRG absorption are just fake rumors, now i'm waiting for normandy 44 map and more WW2 modules (such as CA WW2) :thumbup:

The Battle Simulator as part the professional / military division of TFC/ED to the DCS: W engine. Actually the webpage and youtube video section was very outdated, but the same engine (actually the professional EDGE version, aka SmartGraph) have use by other affiliate companies (Avia Ltd, Concord XXI, Dinamika, etc) to professional / training proposes on different training products.

 

That products has outside of the "entertainment" market.

 

Jimmy talk about them on your videos more time ago before leave:

....

 

Thought it was the other way round?

 

Military sector > commercial sector

Negative, VBS 3 technology has previous to ARMA 3 (Downgraded) release, as professional EDGE technology has previous to DCS: W entertainment EDGE version release.

What are the differences between a military grade simulator and DCS? Aside a more powerful editor. What are we missing out?

I don't think that website has been updated in years.

Believe me, without explain too much, since the year 2011 i really know what i'm talking about, when talking about VBS :smilewink:

Military grade simulators purpose is to train the pilots on the platform systems (switchology-avionics-mfds...), accurate flight models and or nice environmental-terrain graphics are irrelevant (they learn to fly the platform in real time in the real platform itself) ;)

 

Though there are some exceptions, like AVIA.

They had Nevada (EDGE) quality terrains, dx11 and CF SLI support back from 2012..

Vbs engine has make on a military / profesional engine, always was more powerful and have more funtionality as any entertainment ARMA version.

 

if you chech the VBS YouTube channel you discover great quantity of funtionality, features and contend implemented on them as never implemented on ARMA entertainment version. That funtionality and features as "locked" by contract and / or restricted by secret / sensible laws.

 

To no convert them on a OT, release versions of VBS vs ARMA: (VBS 1 2004, ARMA 2006, VBS2: 2007, ARMA 2: 2009, VBS 3: 2013 ARMA 3: 2013)

But many functions from VBS was later implemented via Mods, e.g. Replacing wheels or towing cars. But of course, the functionality of VBS is far superior to ArmA
