So I just now saw that ORBX is developing a new map for DCS:  Kola Peninsula!!!

They are new to DCS.... but they are NOT new to flight simulation terrain addons. They have been around for civilian flight sims for decades..  and now for DCS!!!

The grand map includes the northern end of Norway including Bodo and Andoya, Sweden, a bit of Finland and a bit of Russia, but includes Murmansk and many of those norther military bases... this is a GREAT THING!!  

And whenever the Typhoon module is ready, get some 90's nostalgia too!!

 

 

I just heard about this news about the Kola map on one of the youtube DCS channels. This map would offer a lot interesting missions.

Hope they create a winter version as well, it will suck if we can only fly in summer.

Both Summer and Winter versions of the Kola map are planned.

Hi,

 

I think an Arctic map similar to Janes F/A-18 would be awesome. I list the reasons below:

 

- The dominance of the Arctic region is were today's superpower rivalry is heading.

- Includes both Russian (including Russias most important naval base), NATO and Neutral territory.

- Good environment for many of the DCS Aircraft such as F-16, F-5 (Norway), F/A-18C, MiG-21, Mi-8 (Finland) and Viggen, upcoming Bo-105 (Sweden).

- Is sparsely populated, less time needed to be spent on building detailed cities.

- Gorgeous scenery with Norways mountains and Finlands and Swedens forests and hills.

Was that market research for / on behalf of Orbx back in 2019, just months after Wags mentioned Orbx was talking to ED about cooperation? 

Well played 🙂

Now I wonder if they'll have a shot at Northern Lights!

Aurora modeling is mandatory!

edit: It's confirmed here! 🙂 https://www.reddit.com/r/hoggit/comments/wgibx5/images_from_the_kola_peninsula_from_the_orbxs/
