Kubatko Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Hey, I know it hasn't been long since L-39 was released but I am wondering if there is a probability of putting out L-159 into play. Would be nice to have this kind of sexy in the game.
Mobius_cz Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I don't think we will see L-159 in DCS. L-39 is well known and it is quite good training aircraft. L-159 is quite advanced aircraft and from my point of view it is not classified (probably except IFF system). It takes some time to develop DCS module and Alca is not so known aircraft and i doubt there are a lot of people that are interested in this plane.

Cann0nF0dd3r Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 L159 would be sweet! That and a Hawk 200 would be awesome.
King_Hrothgar Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Doubtful, but mostly because the trainer fad is largely over. I would like some decent modern COIN aircraft like the Yak-130 and A-29 at some point, and those are considered trainers too, but they are pretty far down my wishlist tbh. I don't know off hand what kind of ground attack abilities the L-159 has. As for development difficulties, I don't think there are any sort of secrecy issues with any of these aircraft. Pretty sure you can call up Yak, EMB or Aero and order one of these aircraft right now if you have $15-20 million USD to blow.

GeorgeLKMT Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Doubtful, but mostly because the trainer fad is largely over.. L-159A is not a trainer. Armament (from memory): AIM-9s Mavs GBUs CBUs Dumb bombs Uunguided rockets Gun pods Beer kegs and idiots. It even has a radar and is TGP-capable (although we're not using them, but I've heard about a purchase). But considering it's used only by us, iraqis and now Draken intl bought a few, I doubt that anyone would care. ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■

Pretty sure you can call up Yak, EMB or Aero and order one of these aircraft right now if you have $15-20 million USD to blow. Actually L-159 Alca is not trainer aircraft. It was designed as non supersonic light combat aircraft. Basic verison is L-159A - it is single seat plane. It is quite advanced plane. For ground attack it can use laser guided bombs and mavericks. Also this plane has radar, it can detect air targets and it can also be used for ground mapping but L-159 is not capable to use any radar AA missile only sidewinders. The biggest problem is that this is not THE PLANE for DCS. There are too many more interesting planes to develop than this so as i said before - probably we will not see this plane in DCS.

Forget, but maybe someone will do a mod? External of L-159 and interior of L-39. Just thinking....

Agg Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 But considering it's used only by us, iraqis and now Draken intl bought a few, I doubt that anyone would care. I'd love an Alca in DCS, I have a soft spot for small and cute aircraft like the AMX, the Gnat and the Alca - but, you're right that there probably isn't a huge market for the it in DCS.
