Unlike Phoenix Squadron the book Vulcan 607 does have plenty of detail relating to the actual mission, plus its run up and planning etc. I was also disappointed with Phoenix Squadron, but highly enjoyed Vulcan 607.

And lo, Reverend Vegas did say "Take forth unto the infidel the mighty GAU 8 and expend its holy 30MM so that freedom will be brung upon them who knoweth not the joys of BBBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTT"

Would love the Buccaneer for DCS. I have been a fan of her since is was tiny. I have a joystick given to me by a pilot after they last flew at Lossiemouth in the 90's. Was a sad day to see them fly so wonderfully and the land one after the other park up and fold their wing for the last time. They single handily saved the Tornado in the gulf war with her amazing ability to skim the dunes at 10 feet and designate targets for them. A very impressive aircraft most forgot. This would be a dream aircraft for me. Keep up the great work.

Still working away here! The flight model is under constant development, we are tweaking and adapting it for the most 'realistic' feel we can (within the current confines of the SFM). It already feels pretty good, but there is still some way to go before we are happy to let you guys have fun with it. Work continues also on 3D model tweaks and advancements, animation tweaking etc.

 

Of course, we do this only around (usually very busy!) real working lives so some weeks mean more progress than others. But we are steady ;)

 

Of course, we can always do with more hands to make light work! Coders, modellers, texture guys - feel free to drop me a PM if you can make any contributions.

 

Hopefully, we'll get a video or at the very least some in depth screenshots soon. Two weeks, be sure ;)

You know I can :thumbup:

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

What do you mean by free,like the SU-25T and TF-51 Mustang for DCS World 1.5 free for the SFM.Does that mean a PFM/ASM Buccaneer will be free also or will it be payware only once you develop it.:huh:

BANA is making progress

 

We are pleased to share some progress news with you. Please be aware this is still wip.

Oh wow, these guys mean business. Thanks for sharing Starway and thanks to tombeckett2285 and all the team for putting this together!

It looks AWESOME Starway!!! I can't wait to fly it off a carrier and ARF with it as well.

 

One slightly off topic question for you Starway; Is it possible that you will ever get back to the AD Skyraider project that you were working on a while ago?

Just to know, why this Buccaneer is using a Flanker HUD? And a Mirage sound? Is this just a base to until you guys create the original HUD and Sound?

 

Note: I can't wait to fly this jet!:pilotfly::thumbup:

Looks great.. Any olans to do some clickable switches

 

 

Right now we are using existing FC3 avionics. Unfortunately our coding skills are rather limited. We are still looking for team members to help us here. But if we won't be successful on this, we might release a version with SFM and Su-25T avionics.

Thought the Bucc didn't have a HUD???

It had a Strike Sight - a very simple type of HUD. In case of radar guided attacks, the Blue Parrot radar provided heading information to a Targeting Circle. There was an Aiming Mark aligned with the aircraft nose, and indicators for roll angle and a simple TAS indicator below the Aiming Mark. In Depressed Sightline attacks, the Aiming Mark could be depressed for dive attacks, or in Laydown mode it was used to designate the aim point for the Control and Release Computer to calculate the release point.

 

When we get to the point of advanced system modelling we will hopefully produce an accurate interpretation of the Strike Sight, but until then, to provide usable weapons functionality we've got to use the Su-25T avionics.

Any plans to model the Pave Spike pod for self LGB deployment?

 

That would be awesome (All we need now is a tonka and we're laughing!)
