Non-period aircraft in Normandy Map

[Scarecrow84]

Maybe a dumb question, but will non WW2 aircraft be able to fly in the Normandy Map?

 

It looks great from the Spitfire video...

[Medic8ed]

Yes, it has been mentioned before that any module you own will be able to fly on the Normandy map. Should be fun!

[Aginor]

Definitely!

I need big AAA guns in modern missions.

The acht-acht will be sufficient. :)

[WinterH]

There is no reason for them not to.

 

It's how DCS works : gives you the sandbox with it's resources, and you populate it to your heart's content.

[Scarecrow84]

Yeah, I was concerned the re-fueling infrastructure type items might be a problem.

 

That's really good to hear that all aircraft will work.

Good luck landing your hornet on a grass runway. :music_whistling:

The A-10 shouldn't have a problem though.

[cthulhu68]

Any word on how ground units are going to work? Will we be able to use M1's and BTR's in Normandy? Panzers and Tigers in NTTR?

Hornet's the easy one - Try Eagles for something tougher! :)

Its a sandbox after all lol

[Aginor]

Yeah, IMO it would be silly if we couldn't use all units on all maps, regardless of type.

 

Also using the A-10C against WWII tanks will be loads of fun. :D

[beagleRampant]

Anyone up for some "Final Countdown" type missions set in Normandy? ;)

[Apache600]

Gonna have to make a variation of this glorious scene ... well, using other aircraft for now

not all the airfields in Normandy are grass fields.

[Wags]

Some of the most fun I've had with the pre-release map has been helo and A-10C flights over this terrain. Because of the low, rolling hills, it really makes nap of the earth flying essential.

Saab viggen should do it, and I think some of the airbases might be longer, because they flew strategic bombers out of them during the war.

[some1]

To put things into perspective, a WWII strategic bomber has about the same MTOW than F-15C (about 30 tons). Except it also has much lower takeoff and landing speeds.

 

I don't think Viggen was designed for unpaved runways. Short/provisional yes, but not grass.

Though F-5 was, just not much used as that.

 

 

S!

[MAD-MM]

The Normandy Map dont Provide only unpaved Runways, Evreux in the Down South East Corner is a concret Runway as example..

 

And short Google provide another..

 

Seem's right of Le Havre is Saint Valery Vittefleur concrete Runway, possible at later Spot we get in England aswell
