TaxDollarsAtWork Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 They keep telling us MP is only 10% of the community and refuse to believe anyone buys FC3 because they actually like Eagles and Flankers etc Lets hope they at least bother to Fix the F-15Cs bugs at this point 1
bies Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 Personally for me pure single role fighters like MiG-29, F-15A/C, Su-27, MiG-25 are the most exciting. And let's not forget there were only 3 pure multirole planes Hornet, Viper and Phantom. (excluding classified and impossible to model like F-35, Raptor etc.) Only Phantom left.
Northstar98 Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 LOL....really?. I wonder why being a "pure fighter" is a disqualifying factor for the F-15C, while being a pure "mud-mover" clearly isn't for the A-10. Yet another one of those bombastic claims, like there being no demand for a MiG-29 or Su-27 or any other Russian aircraft "in the west". But I guess this explains the equally unfounded claim that the popularity of FC3 is merely down to "easy accessibility".....since all the fighters included in this apparently are "low demand products". While I absolutely agree with your sentiment, with the A-10C, as far as I know it was a military contract, which is what caused it's development. Modules I own: F-14A/B, F-4E, Mi-24P, AJS 37, AV-8B N/A, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk. Terrains I own: South Atlantic, Syria, The Channel, SoH/PG, Marianas. System: GIGABYTE B650 AORUS ELITE AX, AMD Ryzen 5 7600, Corsair Vengeance DDR5-5200 32 GB, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070S FE, Western Digital Black SN850X 1 TB (DCS dedicated) & 2 TB NVMe SSDs, Corsair RM850X 850 W, NZXT H7 Flow, MSI G274CV.

Frostie Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 From the latest interview with ED https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=282292 (around 1h36m) F-15C is not in plans as being a pure fighter make it a low demand product. He might as well say L39 and F5 are more popular choices, much more chance to fool someone with this statement "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 'Red 5'.

I know mate :) . But there are plenty of other single-role aircraft in DCS including "pure fighters" and I fail to see how an iconic and well known platform like the F-15 could ever be considered a "low demand product".....same goes for the MiG-29 and Su-27. 1
