Man I always hope that the dev on a project like this is sitting back watching all of us say "It's dead, it's dead" and then BAM! strikes like a snake, just hits us with an update.....

I know the Dev, I fly in a fixed wing group with him. I'm sure its not dead, I have see a few WIP pics. He's one guy trying to code it and make it clickable. I know he's not spending twelve hours a day on it, but yeah It would be cool to have someday in game.

Maybe he should get in touch with one of the 3rd party developers or ED and hand over his 3d art to let the pros do the coding (which is the essential thing!), if they can come to an agreement and the developers have some manpower to spare. It appears that's how it was done with the very promising Bo-105.

 

A Seahawk would be so darn nice to have in DCS, especially with ED putting together an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer model

Wow, that's great looking and should be sold; not free.

 

I'd buy it.

Absolutely.

 

However, I guess if ED themselves or one of the renowned 3rd party devs do not take this up, we will be waiting for a proper SH-60B / MH-60R simulation forever. This is not going to work as a one-man project, I'm afraid.

Any chance we could just transition the SH-60B to the SH-60F? The "B" was never used on US Navy aircraft carriers; it is known in the Carrier Air Wings as a "Black Shoes' Kite". It only ever operated off of Destroyers, Cruisers, and Frigates. The iterations of Seahawks that were part of the Carrier Airwings were the SH-60F (Anti-Submarine/Surface/Fleet Logistics Support) and the HH-60H (CSAR/CAS/Maritime Strike/Naval Special War - SEAL).

 

 

The "F" defended the Carrier Battle Group with its dipping sonar dome and MK-46/50/54 torpedoes. The "H" had the best FLIR turret in the fleet and could carry up to 8 AGM-114 HELLFIRE missles. Plus the electric gatling gun.

 

 

Way more fun than a "B".

Would licensing be an issue for this? I mean, some airframe companies do require licensing of the image of their aircraft... is this for payware or freeware?

 

The model images do look nice!

I like the idea of operating off smaller ships way more than carrier ops.

 

Keep on with the -B model... if there is any keeping on at all.

Well, if you like flying out over the horizon wandering aimlessly at the direction of a bunch of ship drivers to find what turns out to be a dispersed fleet of fishing dhows, and then get back to the ship well after wardroom mess has secured (but they've prepared a couple of box lunches for you), then that is more compelling than doing CAS/Spec Ops Insert Extract detachments in downtown Basra from the carrier.

 

 

Just sayin', from real life experience...:pilotfly:

Although, our carrier helo squadron did do a Spec-Ops detachment with one of the small ships in our carrier battle-group. With the HH-60Hs we had. Unfortunately, I missed that action, as I had yet to check into that unit...

Any chance at getting an SH-60F and an HH-60H? Those were the ones that were actually in the carrier air wings. Bravo models were lone helos on small ships, and almost never operated with the carrier airwing aircraft.
