Just wondering if anyone knows if any of our current mutli-seat aircraft will be getting multi-crew any time soon? Huey, Hawk, Gazelle etc...

Indeed, this will be a world changer if and when it does get applied

id love to see multi-crew capabilities for every possible aircraft however with the hawk is is a trainer which i assume means the controls for the front and back would be close to the same. so i don't see a benefit but i think it would still be fun.

The Gazelle is supposed to be getting multi-crew in the future no ETA has been proposed that I have seen.

 

The Hawk isn't getting multi-crew any time soon as VEAO says they must build the cockpit and rework most of the coding to allow it. So its very low on their priorities.

 

The Belsimtek modules.... who knows they may get around to it they may not. I hope they do implement it. An actual working crew chief/gunner position would be great!

If they don't implement multi-crew in the Hawk that would be pretty upsetting considering it is a TRAINER aircraft........

 

I assume a lot of people bought it for that purpose.

 

Not being able to train others in it would be a slap in the face.

I might be mistaken, but I in no way recall there being any significant talk about the Hawk being multi-user, or a promise that you could train other people in it.

 

I'm not sure I'd use a multi-seat aircraft to train a new DCS player, either: a Twitch (like? esque?) stream and TS3 would work just as well, and allow you to use any aircraft.

 

The Hawk is also a aerobatic team aircraft - and I suspect that many people bought it for that aspect, totally independently of its use a a trainer aircraft, although - since I can't run around and poll any significant number of the people who bough the Hawk - I can't make that assumption, either.

Do you mean multi crew as in the AI targeting and firing weapons as you fly (and vise versa) or do you mean multi crew as in two people in the same aircraft working together?

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

 

 

Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

Multi-crew stands for multiplayer crew, so the latter.

F-18C is single crew.

The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

A and C are pilot-only, B and D are dual-seat trainers.

C-101 does have second seat as well.

My current stand of information is the following:

 

Multicrew available:

- L-39 Albatross

 

Multicrew planned:

- UH-1 Huey

- Gazelle

- F-14 Tomcat

- Mi-8?

 

The Hawk is not supposed to get multicrewing. Don't know about the C-101.

 

 

A and C are pilot-only, B and D are dual-seat trainers.

Only B is a Trainer. The backseat in the D is a fully operational WSO-cockpit like in the F-15E.

You sure about that?

Crow has also started on remodelling the ejection seat and soon to start on the rear cockpit model.

 

Cheers,

Chris.

Don't you think BST and ED shares parts of codes or 'way-to-do-it' regarding such features? ;)

VEAO has announced recently they will create the rear cockpit of their 'DCS: Hawk' (source)

Guess it's to use it...

 

No promises (EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE ;) ) but we are looking at multi-crew capability. When we have solid news we can share, we'll let you know. 8)

 

Best regards,

Tango.

 

Not sure if Tango works for VEAO or not but the way he worded his post makes me believe he does.

We also plan for this module to include multiplayer front seat / back seat capability. We believe that this feature will add a new dimension of gameplay for this aircraft and several others like the UH-1H, Mi-8MTV2, Hawk, and C-101.

The exact words I heard during one the VEAO streams is that they hope do a multicrew plane one day. And then try to reverse engineer that into the Hawk.

Check my F-15C guide

@ZQuickSilverZ, those are very old posts. I don't think they reflect the current situation. For example, Tango no longer works for Aviodev and hasn't for quite a while. I know Aviodev is definitely working on multiplayer multicrew though. VEAO, not at this time, is my impression.

It would be very nice for the Gazelle & Huey. I can't wait to have it for the F-14!

Hopefully more will be done in the future.

Tango may have when he posted that but he is no longer involved in any DCS development. So I would not put much stock in a three year old post.

Pretty sure there were clear statements from VEAO about the multicrew situation on the HAWK and why it wouldn't get one. (AFTER those posts

QuickSilver linked)

Last information was along the lines of "No multicrew planned atm, but never say never"

Just to make sure, you did not mean to imply another F-18 in development, did you? To the best of my knowledge, in development is F-18C which is a single seat jet. Am I wrong here guys?

Might just be a brainfart.... yes, the model for the Hornet is C and no sign of a two-seater in the forseeable future...

 

Though the F-14 and the F-4 are coming and will have multicrew.
