exray Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 A P38 would go great over Normandy to mingle with the plane that replaced it in the theatre it had to be withdrawn from.

Donut Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Wow, you guys are good! I am always amazed with the resourcefulness of some of the members on here. Your investigative skills and sleuthing abilities are top notch! The image is very convincing for the P-38. This would be great for DCS. I look forward to the official announcement and any other suprises. i5 7600K @4.8GHz | 1080 Ti | 32GB 3200MHz | SSD | DCS SETTINGS | "COCKPIT" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarraceno Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hopefully not :S i'm not one of those who goes constantly MEDONOTWANTPROPRAIPLANEESSSS!!!, in fact i quite enjoy the few i have... but honestly... P-38 would be the last in my "interest list". However, for those who are actually interested, if finally its a P-38, great for you! that... or is DAT FACE of Leatherneck logo for the 3d model of our pilots, which would be.... funnily odd :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absha Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I'm not against props, i'm against WW2 planes. Well, we've had plenty of super WW2-sim. Don't need more of them. Now, if we could do some 50's to modern-era fighter, that'd be great. Even modern propeller would be great, i'd kill for an OV-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree, but at the same time they sell well and they fund development of more complex aircraft. Reformers hate him!

WolfK33 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 that figure was never a hint as far as I know? Its been on their website for months!:doh: Hmm, but I just noticed that that logo usually isn´t green. Maybe that´s the hint and not the background ? I remember somewhere in the back of my head that when M3 and Heatblur where still together in the early teasing of the Tomcat there also was a corsair in the background or something like that that had nothing to do with the teasing. Maybe someone can tell if it´s an "Army green" or more of a "USMC green" or whatever. HH53 Super Jolly Green Giant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firmek Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 given the migs are ruled out, it must be a SU aircraft, SU17/22/24? At least I am hoping!... Can you post a reference stating that the MiG's are not being/can't be done in DCS? Otherwise the latest communication on that topic that I can refer to is RAZBAM saying that they had been asked to stop working on MiG-23 while the specific reasons for this decission can't be reviled due to NDA. In other words, the discussion if the MiG-23 had been canceled completly or transfered to another team - be it 3'rd party or ED are only a speculations.
