RLSinCO Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hm....according to Wags today on the Air Combat Sim Podcast - Episode #25 on YouTube, there is another helicopter in development at the moment (no, not the AH-64D Apache) but it is secret. Maybe this is already known, but it was news to me. So, may I be the first to ask - "When is the release date"? Just kidding, of course. But anyone have a clue what the next chopper might be? (Admins, - I know this is the AH-64D thread, so apologies if this isn't the right landing spot for this topic). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belsimtek wanted to make AH-1G, as it would have the most commonality with UH-1, but people (understandably) wanted at least a TOW capable Cobra of later Cold War. Then they have said they will consider AH-1W. Then loooooong silence. Afterwards it was said AH-1S will be developed, to which community answered "yeah but which S?" To that, "ok" said the devs, "it is AH-1F". ...and then ED took over Belsimtek, and Cobra got postponed indefinitely, which is where we are I do really hope for an 80s to early-ish 90s F or W. Would be very cool, be a different, late cold war experience to go with modern one from the Longbow, and it would go really nice together with Mi-24P. Anyway, helicopter folks over in ED will have quite a bit to do for sometime, with AH-64D and Mi-24P. So I would think next ED chopper is awhile yet to come, I would think. They are perhaps working on art or research portion of it for now. More helos, happier I am though 2 Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But anyways, it probably drives the developers nuts when someone brings up something in the pipeline rather than focusing on what is in hand, or about to be released. So, again apologies if I've riled any feathers with the mystery chopper question. Back on topic - thank you to ED for making the best combat sim in the world, and the AH-64D will undoubtedly set a new benchmark in simulation add-ons. My thanks for the incredible work by everyone involved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was originally planned by BST. Guess the W would be a decent candidate, but I wouldn't mind the Z either. I think even the F was rumored.
