NeilWillis Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 The announcements about the new airframes were made because the cat was inadvertently let out of the bag, not because Leatherneck planned it this way. Bottom line though, DCS World continues to expand, and LN are certainly front runners in module fidelity. The more they work, the better they'll get at avoiding the bugs too. Next year looks to be as exciting as last year was, and it's only five days old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year looks to be as exciting as last year was, and it's only five days old! Have they been announced now? Because I read Cobras post like "There will still come an anouncement, but here is some info already". Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

QuiGon Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) Have you read the first post of that topic ? That's what I meant when I said "Cobras post"... Delicious Leeks – AJS-37 & F4U-1DWhoops! No, it's not a red herring. (We're bigger fans of cod and salmon, actually). Obviously we screwed up a little here, but hopefully you'll forgive us. We might as well talk briefly about these two, while we're at it. [...] With an average development time of several years; every module we have built or will build will be very special to us. Thus we want to make sure that your first look, but more importantly- your first impression of our work is exactly as good as you expect of us. The simple but honest truth is: they're just not quite there yet. At least visually. If a cockpit is 95% done and but there is a big white blob instead of a HUD– we'd rather ensure that we get that done before disappointing you. It will be a few more weeks until we are ready. I understand his post as not beeing an official anouncement of the Viggen and the Corsair. He just admitted they're developing them and it looks like there will be an official anouncement in the coming weeks/months.

QuiGon Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Alright, I guess I should have been more clear then in my first post. I was talking about an official announcement, which I'm still looking forward to :) Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

Drift, taking a new fix position, alignment, all that good stuff. This also ties in with the weapons and HUD systems in a big way. With regards to the RWR stuff listed explained on the previous page: I am mainly referring to (apart from the RWR's normal functions as explained by Jedi) -- basic ELINT and Recon capabilities and RWR data recording features.

This is so nice. Then we must have a map with the island Öland and the light houses. Just read a story about one of them being used by Viggen pilots to do a fix update of the navigation system and it also had a radar reflector so it was easy to spot :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
