I thought it was obvious and then I ran it by my kids (who are in their 20's) and they looked at me like I HAD LOST MY MIND. And I started to worry. Of course, my wife got it as soon as I said it. for the record, I was 11 when it came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrike88 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Greetings, Jumping back into the A-4, noticing some liveries that I had made before the large update no longer show up. Just the default pixelated when the livery is applied. Guessing external model changed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASW Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Friends, is there a server somewhere where you can fly on this plane? I only found out yesterday that such a plane exists, downloaded it and flew all night! GreyCat_SPb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I like to watch others going at it to see their ACM capabilities. Rather than just seeing it on Youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidekick65 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 A Tour of the Syria Map in the A-4 Lots of potential for Scootering on this map! Given that the IDF flew the A-4 for more than 30 years, it would seem like there is lots of potential for some great historical missions and campaigns too.

Given that the IDF flew the A-4 for more than 30 years, it would seem like there is lots of potential for some great historical missions and campaigns too. Skyhawks served in the Israeli air force for 48 years! First ones arrived December 29 1967, shortly after the Six Days war, last ones were grounded in 2015. Amazing. “Mosquitoes fly, but flies don’t Mosquito” :pilotfly: - Geoffrey de Havilland. ... well, he could have said it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudel_chw Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) Hello, After today's DCS update (to version DCS 2.5.6.54046 OB), the Hook command (U key) doesn't work on the Stennis. The aircraft doesn't latch to the Catapult and starts sliding backwards, even if the aircraft was set to start from catapult. This was working fine until yesterday I know because I was editing a mission that starts with the aircraft at the catapult. I will report it on the Bug Tracker, but wanted to comment it here in case other users wonder about this. Note the launch speed, the catapult didn't work.
