kontiuka Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 When I was a kid in the mid-eighties, I got a book as a present that featured 10 military jets. I wish I could remember the name of that book but it really kindled my interest in military aviation. Anyways, if I recall correctly, the list of planes was, in no particular order ... F-14 F-15 F-16 F-18 Mirage-2000 Viggen Panavia Tornado Harrier Mig-23 B-1B I just realized that with the latest news updates from RAZBAM, 6 of these childhood loves will become a reality in DCS as full fidelity sims! C'mon ED and third parties, lets do a sweep of all 10! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 6? I think it is 8. The only ones not remotely hinted at by any dev are the F-16* and B-1B. Everything else is in progress in some form, five of them by Razbam (although one of those five might be tackled by Polychop). *Do not say ED, their F16 is clearly a cancelled or Government-only project at this point. Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackLion213 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Is this the book? I suspect so since it contains the same 10 you mentioned. :) It's still a great book to thumb through and I remember having the same thought as you - ED and 3rd Parties are creating an awesome collection of aircraft that are very much to my taste (late Cold War - aircraft of my youth). Glad to see I am in good company...:D -Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kontiuka Posted December 10, 2016 Author Share Posted December 10, 2016 ^ Thanks so much! Same book but a different cover. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Perhaps you're thinking of "The Great Book Of Combat Aircraft" ? The full volume is about two inches thick and they also published each chapter as individual books.
