Remember about OH-58D Kiowa!

Well, depends on what info is needed, all of our training materials were unclassified.

Three aircraft for years... A-10, Ka-50 and -64A... I was hoping to see an ED F-16 because F4 is pretty much dead, it is not going anywhere.

Really?

The info might be available, then . . .

At the moment I only know what I've been told - AH-64A and A-10. I'm not privy to the decision-making process for which aircraft comes next ;)

The F-16 was mentioned as a possible future project, along with an advanced MiG-29 variant . . . but that was some time ago, long before the DCS announcement.

Having said that, the Project Temporarily Known As Tank Killers turned out to be very similar to what we know about DCS. So hey, maybe that plan is still alive :)

Isn't Fighter Ops planning to model the F-16, though?

I already have thought of this bird (and more to :joystick:). I would fly it to support AH-64. So if you will done it, done it to became flyable. I really hope that ED would do those helos and planes that we all want... But we are only in the pre beginning. So lets see what future hold for us.

Best regards to all.

If you really saw, in real life, how very small the OH-58D Kiowa is, you would crap.. if you had to fly into battle with this small machine, but fast and agile... it looks much larger in pictures. it is freaking tiny...
:joystick:

Tiny aircraft=tiny target, that just mean we can get closer and fire more accurately.
