Jayhawk1971 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Would a full fidelity A-6E module be pre or post SWIP? In any case, A-6 would be a most welcome, very iconic companion to the Tomcat! Edited February 5, 2021 by Jayhawk1971 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too early to discuss such details just yet, SWIP, TRAM, etc... the first step will be to finish the AI now first, then we will see, and of course keep you in the loop, as always. In that sense, please be so kind and have some patience with us. There's a lot of other things for us to finish first, before we will devote ourselves fully to such questions.

Please don't feel pressured by the community, most of us can be very patient (really, I swear.... well, sometimes.....at least on a full moon in February in a leap year.... ). Just happy that we'll get a flyable Intruder. Please call the B/N AI "Tiger" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As nice as the mod someone's made for DCS looks, is there any chance that an AI model for the EA-6B Prowler to get made from the current A-6 you all are working on?

EA/EW is a bit barebones/pretty much non-existent in DCS at the moment sure, but with promising EW work in an upcoming IADS module it would be a must have AI asset in any scenario with SAMs [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skysurfer Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Awesome! All I ever dreamed of for DCS, honestly. I am sure it will take several years just like the Tomcat but just to know it's coming eventually is quite nice. Together with the F-8 this is going to build a really nice 70's to 80's ecosystem.
