Silent Film Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Hi, and thank you for the Autumn Sale! I have bought the MiG-21bis module, and I would like to point out few details that should be corrected. I couldn't find a forum for MiG-21 in English, so I am writing here. In Yugoslavia and Serbia, military aircraft carried a five-digit number, in which the first two digits marked the aircraft type, and the other three digits marked the particular aircraft. For example, here in the photo we have a Serbian MiG-21bis with the number "17163", in which "17" means it is MiG-21bis one-seater, and "163" is the number of the aircraft. There is also the number of the aircraft "163" on the nose gear door. In DCS World, Serbian MiG-21bis numbers begin with "02", which makes no sense, because all of them carried a number which begins with "17". Also, that small aircraft number on the nose gear door is missing. And the five-digit number above the flag should begin where the flag begins. The other detail I wanted to point out is that the roundels on the fuselage and on the wings should be of equal size. It is better seen on this scale model. I would say that in DCS World the roundel on the fuselage is too small, and it should be the same size as the roundel on the wings. I hope this helps, and that it can be corrected. Cheers! 1

Silent Film Posted November 23, 2020 Author Posted November 23, 2020 And one more thing, in DCS World there are some small red letters over the roundel on the fuselage, which aren't and can't be there in reality, because there are no and there can't be inscriptions over the markings.
