Whish for the F-111

[Pallette]

Hello there people,

 

After a succesfull swing wing project F-14 I was wondering if Heatblur or any other developer is taking on the F-111 as a future project?

 

I find it has a lot of features that would suit DSC mission building whell like the TFR and its tactical strike bomber capabilities. And its just a really beautifull special aircraft with a bit a good dose of "if it doesnt work we just keep pumping money into it untill it does" history to it and was updated to perfection, and just as the action was about to die it outbombed the A-10 in a breeze. Although some crashed through airframe/pivotbox failure in the past it was quite a succesfull piece on its own and with that said that monocoque cockpit that enhoused the pilots after ejecting is just one of the details that makes the F-111 what it was.

 

Since i am dreaming why not add a Vietnam and/ or Australia training map map and a bundle of missions and ground assets to go with it :matrix::lol:

 

Just joking a bit but I just hope to trigger a vibe about the F-111 and really hope to see it coming in the future on DCS.

The 111 would be awesome in DCS.

[Scotch75]

^^^^^ +1000, please, lol

[Spudknocker]

They could certainly leverage their work on the TF-30's thats for sure!

[CarbonFox]

The F-111 Foxtrot version would be a great addition and a true interdiction aircraft in DCS outside of the nonflyable Su-24.

[Jester986]

Between jester ai, the engines, swing wings, and their ground radar work it just makes too much sense.

[Leadnap]

+1! This is 100% of my wish list. To be honest, it pretty much is the No.1 spot on that wish list as far as aircraft are concerned (more realistic fog and weather exist in front of it, but thats all ED).

 

Not that I don't like other brands - but I think HB is the only developer currently who has the tools already to put it together. Hell I would pay upfront for pre-early access (like, take my money now, develop it and then I get one when it goes to early access). If I could code I would offer those services as well (but I can barely do Power Shell...)

[JagHond]

+1 here too, just as for the A-6 and (who knows 'who', 'if' and 'when') the Tornado IDS/ECR.

 

With best regards.

The ultimate Bomb Truck!

[Miasma]

I would much rather the Tornado, bit more variety instead of it primarly being american air frames.

so much more the Tornado :thumbup:

+1 for F-111 and/or Tornado. First day buying.

[SandMartin]

Tornado will be better.

[splash]

+1

 

+1. My vote for a Su-24, but I suppose it's impossible.

[Magot]

F-111 its too impossible, because majority parts from avionics is still secret.

[Saber42]

Can we please have an F-111 in some form or another. This jet would be Ideal in DCS, unclassified, cold war area, strong appeal. I understand that the A-6E has more smart weps like harpoon, Slam and the Agm-123 Skipper (very cool). But the F-111 would be more fun to fly with its highspeed and TFR. plus most of its ordinance is already in DCS bar BLU-109, BLU-107, GBU-15, AGM-130 and AGM-142 (C version only). please Heatblur, Razbam or ED

I can see the F-111C being classified because raaf....

 

but the F-111F hasent flown since 1998. we have newer aircraft in DCS

[EcceHomo]

I would very much like to see HB F-111. Although the performance is small, its value should be higher than A-6 and F-14.

[Sajarov]

First of all. Enjoy what we have now. And what we will have in a few weeks/months.

 

 

 

I want a F-111 too but I prefer fly now!

[JagHond]

+1 for F-111 and/or Tornado. First day buying.

 

Agreed, just the same mind here.

 

With best regards.

[Vampyre]

I'd love me some F-111 of any version please... with a preference for the ones that actually saw combat (A/E/F).

 

The F-111's were capable of night time all weather low level penetration and strike with very heavy war loads. It was fast, with its speed only limited by airframe temperature. It had incredible range, with two F-111A's sent to its first Paris airshow flying across the Atlantic from the US in one flight without refueling and, get this, without drop tanks. They were used in combat in Vietnam, Libya, Iraq and stood ready in bases in the UK if a shooting war had started in central Europe during the Cold War.

[Magot]

but the F-111F hasent flown since 1998. we have newer aircraft in DCS

but several parts of avionics are still secret.

Like with F-117A. Is gone but still under information embargo.

 

 

Its not possible create complete DCS modul. There are missing needed data.

[JefCostello]

F111! That's a real kickass plane!

[WinterH]

I'd prefer A-6 first but, I would absolutely LOVE an F-111, same for the Tornado and Su-24.

 

That'd be the holy trinity of swing-wing strikers/interdictors :P

 

Crazy speed at crazy low altitude, oldschool TGP, boatload of LGBs, what's not to love? :)
