Cutlass72 Posted January 24, 2019 Posted January 24, 2019 It's a beautiful aircraft, one of the favourite models I made as a kid.

thrustvector Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 I'm really not sure on this plane, I'm mean its a little light recon plane really isn't it, when would you use it over anything else, even a copter?

Well, its armament wasn't so 'light' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Rockwell_OV-10_Bronco#Specifications). Armament Guns: 4 × 7.62×51mm M60C machine guns Hardpoints: 5 fuselage and 2 underwing and provisions to carry combinations of: Rockets: 7- or 19-tube launchers for 2.75" FFARs or 2- or 4-tube launchers for 5" FFARs Missiles: AIM-9 Sidewinder (Wing pylons only) Bombs: up to 500 lb Other: SUU-11/A or Mk 4 Mod 0 gun pods Edited January 25, 2019 by norbot
thrustvector Posted January 25, 2019 Posted January 25, 2019 oh ok, that's quite interesting then, I hope, I know it may be a small thing, but it has a descent sound module for it,
Mig Fulcrum Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 Well, its armament wasn't so 'light' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Rockwell_OV-10_Bronco#Specifications).

norbot Posted January 26, 2019 Posted January 26, 2019 I think you are referring to the D version (Gulf War) but I think, looking the screenshots, they are developing the A version (Vietnam) so the armament may vary. Nope. It's the A version. Armament of D version is: Armament Guns: 1 × 20 mm (0.79 in) M197 cannon (YOV-10D) or 4 × 7.62×51 mm M60C machine guns (OV-10D/D+) Hardpoints: 5 fuselage and 2 underwing and provisions to carry combinations of: Rockets: 7- or 19-tube launchers for 2.75 in FFARs/2.75 in WAFARs or 2- or 4-tube launchers for 5 in FFARs or WAFARs Missiles: AIM-9 Sidewinder on wings only Bombs: up to 500 lb (227 kg)
Mig Fulcrum Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Ok, sorry for my ignorance. I just didn't expect the A version could carry AIM-9.
norbot Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Ok, sorry for my ignorance. I just didn't expect the A version could carry AIM-9. No problem. Didn't know it either. But that's what the wikipedia link tells about it. :book:
Sealpup Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 Ok, sorry for my ignorance. I just didn't expect the A version could carry AIM-9. Just about anything can carry an AIM-9, provided its either uncooled or peltier cooled. For boresight use all one needs is an audio hookup for the seeker output, a power source for the cooler if its has peltier cooling, and a voltage source for the igniter. Its the LN2 cooled ones that complicate things.
fl0w Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 While this aircraft looks awesome at the moment and may serve well as a testbed for the Super Tucano, I am still quite worried about the MiG-19 development. Should we be believing in what RAZBAM has to say on that or the ED newsletter?
MAD-MM Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Very nice one of my favourite Aicraft... Did you consider we get a Pave Nail equipment? Would be nice all Weather additon, and lase Targets for the upcoming F4 with precission Ammunition? Once you have tasted Flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your Eyes turned Skyward.

Should we be believing in what RAZBAM has to say on that or the ED newsletter? OV-10 is being done in one of the artist's spare time for the moment. Meanwhile, the MiG-19 is being done by a completely separate team within the company.
Baco Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) so it has a "cargo bay" we can use it to resuply bases then ;) now we need an AN 2 LOL Edited January 29, 2019 by Baco
ams999 Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Now this is a plane I'm looking forward to! I hope there will be an option to remove the sight? It looks rather cumbersome when I just want to fly around.

xvii-Dietrich Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Just found this OV-10 thread. Wow. What an interesting aircraft! I would absolutely get it if it was released into DCS one day.

Snoopy Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I’d much rather RAZBAM focus on what we already have with the Mirage and Harrier, neither of which are complete than continuing to show pictures of a “passion project.” Even more so since ED doesn’t feel the MiG-19 isn’t ready for release. Doesn’t look good from a PR perspective IMO. Dear all, After an extensive review of the MiG-19, we have decided to postpone its release until a few items are resolved. It’s RAZBAM’s desire to release the MiG-19 in a finished state so it will need just a little more time in the oven to meet this expectation.

drPhibes Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 I’d much rather RAZBAM focus on what we already have with the Mirage and Harrier, neither of which are complete than continuing to show pictures of a “passion project.” Razbam are focusing on other projects. The OV-10 is a personal project of one of the new devs: The gears are moving, there is a new guy who is checking stuff up...at his pace, no rushes, so whenever something comes out i´ll post it here, just keep the hype under control, it can take a long time since A. is not a priority (sorry for this guys, i´m just being honest here) B. It´s up to the person who accepted the task (his time, his priorities). On the bright side, it does not affect in any way current scheduled projects(which are all moving)

DeathAngel1 Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) Who needs this plane? I think its much better for whole DCS community to get ASAP full capabilities of Hornet and F-16CJ + F-15E, instead of planes like Cristen Eagle and Bronco. Thats my opinion. This is combat simulator first of all. Edited January 31, 2019 by DeathAngel1 ..:NAVY PILOTS ARE THE THE BEST PILOTS:..

DeathAngel1 Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) Its light combat aircraft. Its even more observation aircraft. Edited January 31, 2019 by DeathAngel1 ..:NAVY PILOTS ARE THE THE BEST PILOTS:..
