LowRider88 Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Some planes like the F-4 had remarkable capabilities like long range, long range radar, carrying capacity, multiple crew members, etc. While other lower cost planes like the F-5, A-4, early MiGs, etc had less technology, and so in some ways were less capable However these lower cost options were more simplistic, and cheaper to maintain, with much lower servicing times. It would be great if in DCS planes with lower servicing times had shorter wait times for rearming, refueling, etc. that represent the character of those planes. E.g. if an F-5 takes less fuel and is easier to maintain because it sits lower to the ground, and closer to the ground crew, than its times should be less than say an F-14. E.g. a plane may have a lower repair time, but a longer refuel time, compared to another plane. I understand this is the simulated entertainment world, and no DCS user has the spare time to wait a day for an F8 command, but adding delays in minutes to reflect differences in hours, would still allow users to appreciate certain modules which are easier to maintain even if they have less technical capabilities. It just adds another flavor to the sim.
