DCS: Syria Map - Desert Frogs

In this Syria map video for DCS World, we’ll move to a more desert location of the map, south of Damascus at Marj Ruhayyil airbase. This is a major airbase for the Syrian air force that also acts as an important command, control, and communication center. It also often a host of Iranian units. For those two reasons, it’s been the subject of multiple Israeli air strikes over the past few years.

 

In this mission, we’ll fly an Su-25 Frogoot as part of a Russian detachment to the airbase to strike Isis fighters south of Jabab. We’ll also take this opportunity to show some of the many military facilities that dot the map.

2S6 Tanguska is nice but in Syria one of the most used Air Defense System is the Pantsir S-1 (SA-22 Greyhound).

 

It is also used by the Iraqi and the russian in Syria.

It's maybe time for ED to create this very common SAM system...:music_whistling:

An update of the "old" other trucks, those mostly used on Air Base could be nice too...

Not mine argument, but why is S-25 rockets still allowed in DCS, when in reality those are not allowed to be launched as their smoke gets in engines and stalls them, causing aircrafts to crash?

well Pantsir has always been a tunguska on steroids and wheels, so no wonder we see it in that video

At the weapon system level indeed but at the representation level, the Pantsirs exported to the Middle East are ALL on truck chassis...

In order to have realistic scenarios and sceneries, which is the goal of DCS, it would be normal to find it in our favorite simulator.;)

Now is when we are missing the most clickable Russian birds to fly and there is only the Mig-21 and the L-39 and the latter does not even have Syrian skins (not counting helicopters)

Pointed to the contemporary conflict, so do not name the Mig-15 and 19
