toni Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 Great news indeed, a great machine to the collection. Now, ED could think about developing some naval helo, SH-3 Sea King , SH-2 Seasprite, and not talking about the SH-70 . What about that guys ? 1
Silver_Dragon Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 That helos only will coming to DCS if ED build ASW environment with realistic sonar engine and antisubmarine weapons.

I don't really see why this is always brought forward against a real navy helicopter. When the UH-1 and the Mi-8 came, there was basically no real purpose for these in the game except for flying around casually, and without external scripts that would still be the case today. So let us have a helicopter to fly around that really fits into the naval scenario we have now with the Supercarrier and its assets. The Huey simply doesn't look good on the landing deck of a modern USN destroyer or cruiser, it's really odd.

Let me make that choice for you: Definitely Navy! ***Edit*** I should add that of course even now there is more to do with a naval helicopter than just flying around. ASuW is possible in DCS today (in case of the Lynx with Sea Skua or guns), transport missions as well, VERTREP... so it's not a real issue that a naval helicopter would be without a mission in DCS.

Johnny Dioxin Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 You can always do resupply between ships (I remember the Courier mission and landing the Ka-50 on a frigate - that was interesting!) and there's always anti-ship stuff plus search & rescue (find the dinghy! Do we have a dinghy in DCSW? If not - why not?).
