brettt777 Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 I would love to see a functioning F-111 in DCS. Using the TFR to go screaming over the treetops at 600 knots... oh yeah! And the Bone... arguably the most beautiful aircraft ever built. 2 4 AMD Ryzen 9 5900X @ 4.4ghz, 64gb DDR4 @ 3200mhz, GeForce RTX-3060ti 8GB DDR6, Three KTC 32" QHD monitors @ 165hz, Rosewill 80plus Bronze 1000w, Corsair Hydro H100i, 2tb M.2 SSD for OS, Two 3tb HDD, 2tb SSD for DCS, P3D, Star Citizen, Sound Blaster Zx, Thermaltake Overseer RX-I, Winwing Orion 2 HOTAS F-15EX throttle and F-16EX stick, Winwing 3 MFD MIP with FA-18 UFC and F-16 ICP, TrackIR 5, Surround Speakers & Subwoofer, Oculus Quest 2 VR. :joystick::pilotfly:

Both are nuclear capable aircraft with very strict rules regarding their portrals 2. Both require a second (or in the case of the BOne, up to 3 more!) crew to operate properly. Ergo, while I'd love to see both aircraft in DCS (and yes, I agree the Lancer is a sexy angel of death and destruction), you'd have more luck stealing a B-1B from the USAF then the AFGSC letting Jon Doe Game Designer anywhere near that information.

The F-16 and F-18 are both nuclear capable and the B-1B is no longer used in the nuclear role. The real problem with the B-1B is the crew size- pilot, co-pilot, WSO and EWO. I don't see the EWO station being modeled though the WSO might. The F-111 is no longer flying so I really don't see any problems except picking the right one(s) to model . 4

Lurker Posted September 7, 2021 Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) The F111 would probably become one of my favorite fixed wing modules if they ever release it. Second only to the F14. It's the low level interdiction king and it would be perfect for the DCS multiplayer environment because it can deliver a huge payload into highly contested enemy airspace with no need for a screening cap. I don't do a lot of mud moving (other than in the Hind) but this would change if they ever released this baby. It's speed is it's defense. It's a shame that other modules get preference over this beautiful bomber, but it is what it is.

AvgeekJoe Posted September 14, 2021 Posted September 14, 2021 I love the idea of bringing in a F-111 that can also if possible fire SRAMs and drop B61s. A real Cold War warrior. But the F-111 was also the ultimate precision sledgehammer in the 1980s and Persian Gulf War. It also starred in a few Dale Brown novels! 1
