Negative, you need to read more, thats a fake name claimed 45 years ago however its persian gulf since 200BC ! i will not discuss on politics here, there is not such name as arabian gulf;
give you an example, imagine the UK call the Norwegian Sea as British Sea for 40 years from tomorrow! or Russia start calling Gulf of Finland by gulf of Russia ! and 45 years after wikipedia open a page as British Sea or Gulf of Russia! We (People) will respect your history and call it as it was with original name (perhaps not as you call in Norwegian or Finish but for us will remain as it was); I am sure you know wikipedia is not an academic resource/references as anyone can edit and open a page or claim! I hope i could be clear about it

What's Finland got to do with it? It's not even part of Scandinavia? You call it the Baltic Sea, we call it Østersjøen.
I was just leading you on. I shouldn't have done that. Apologies!
But you missed the point. Read again. It was a suggestion for another map. A complete new map actually. And just to have another name other than Persian Gulf, AG was suggested. Again, re-read, you completely misunderstood the context.
And your right, Wiki is well, you know. It just was the first hit. LOL
Don't be so offended! Haha
Couldn't give a rats ass about "Norwegian Sea". Any other Norwegian would be a question mark anyway.

While I agree that filling in this blank would be great especially if you could fly between Maps I would rather See Turkey modelled to allow for the transition back to the Caucaus. 

Of course I still think an eastern Australia/New Zealand Map would be pretty awesome. 

[shu77]

The engine needs to support a world map with individual region maps able to be used as added.  Until we can support that the conversation about overlaps is a but superfluous.

[aviation360]

Personally I would like to see The Persian gulf map filled out, with the parts of Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, and the rest of Iran included, just the parts of those countries you can currently see in the F10 map. Would definitely make the Persian gulf map much more filled out.
I would also like to see a Vietnam map as we get More and more Cold War aircraft.

Although a map including Iraq up to Baghdad and all of Kuwait and part of Northwestern Iran, probably would be Called the Arabian Gulf.

A map including Most of Isreal, Jordon, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt so from Haifa-Amman-Al Qurayat-Tabuk-Qena-Cario to Alexandria probably call the Red Sea map or like the Suez Canal map idk, would be cool to have all of Israel including Jerusalem and most of Jordon, some of Saudi Arabia, and some of Egypt. Not sure how much conflict takes place there but would be a cool map to have but a map including Iraq would be more practical.

My Understanding is that both NTTR and SOH currently tap the edge of the 8GB minspec for Ram so further additions would push them over.  Theres a couple references to this in threads but I have not found a proper reference to how it works and Syria can pack in so much.  My hope is that once we get the world engine, its possible to start adding additional resource to the sim in which case the logical flow would be to push out the detail from the current maps.  Being able to fly from Syria through to the Gulf would be great even if iraq and Qatar were blank space initially.

[aviation360]

I see your point with the 8g of ram, and when the world engine is released I feel that map making should be made available to public but has to go through a submission process before it can be added to the sim. Ether way I would still like to see the PG map extended for those ultra long missions where s*** hits the fan and your bingo fuel all the way up near Kuwait and the current closet friendly airfield is Al Dahfra. Kuwait, Qatar, The  Saudi Arabian coast, and the Iraqi Coast would be a nice edition to the map of they could find a way to still keep it around the 8gb of ram area

My proposal for a Desert Storm map

[Knock-Knock]

Yes please.

[VTJS17_Fire]

I would expand this one to the north-west to combine it with the Persian Gulf and den Syria Map. DCS would have it's first "global" region, where exchange rate deviations in navigation occur, because the the distance, you could fly.

 

The next step could be expanding the Persian Gulf map to the south and south-east, including the Red Sea and more of the Gulf of Oman and the northern Arabian Sea.

 

Or expanding the Syria Map with another map, to merge the Mediterranean Sea with the Caucasus Map. Expanding this to the north, they could add the region of the Kosovo war or to the south, Agypt and Lybia. To beginn a global DCS map, this whole region would had the most potenial for mission/campaign designers.

[Tnt Snipes]

Afghanistan map, would be the better option than Iraq. Iraq is more or less the same as persian gulf. Afghanistan offers more than PG, Syria and Caucasus.
Afghanistan is more like a cross between Caucasus and the Persian Gulf. I wish they work on Afghanistan.

[KWard]

We already have two Middle Eastern maps and three desert maps. I'd rather see anything else.

Afganistan Mas was planned some years ago, but put "on hold". Irak actually has not planned yet (someone talk about waiting to "whole map").

 

The 'whole map' would work for me 

[Dongpo]

I began flying DCS three weeks ago and bought Persian Gulf and Syria at the same time. I thought the two maps could conbine so that I could fly from Isreal to Iran...

[Dlang]

Amazing

[Thunder_]

good idea

[Pikey]

i'm with this. Iraq is sadly missed in the game, missing iran-Iraq and everyone vs Iraq and the ISIL operations later. Yeah, it's pretty boring in that region but it offers a lot of fighting and usage of some fairly significant hardware that is often unique.
I'm also up for lots of other things and I am also happy with what I have.

I'd love Iraq provided we had away to pan over to the Persian gulf and Syria if we have them. which I do.

[Marko.H]

that... +1... and more of northern Iraqi mountains. with addition of this country to a new map, or preferably, as an extension to Persian gulf map, many scenarios can be added:

1- Iran-Iraq war with the most extensive use of tomcats in the world (plus lots and lots of MiG-21 vs F-5 scenarios)

2- The Gulf wars

3- Invasion of Iraq

4- Insurgencies and ISIS rise to power, and of course hammering ISIS

etc...

[Enduro14]

Yes please Iraq my old stomping grounds,  would be epic.

[Gunnar81]

Would you just allow the boy to have his Iraq map!?!? All he wants is his map!!

That looks like a great map
 

Not just for Desert Storm and Iraq War, but more interestingly for the 1980s Iran Iraq war

The coalition actions against Iraq were a little one sided from an air Ops perspective, whereas the Iran - Iraq clash seems to have been far more closely balanced and involved some interesting tactics on both sides.
 

We also have, or have inbound, a good collection of aircraft for Iran v Iraq.  Mirage F1 v F-14 for example…
