CouX Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 Hello, I am trying to learn DCS right now so I am pretty new, let's say it's my second attempt to get into DCS. What put me off from DCS was the price of the modules in view of available maps (no Korea & Vietnam map) and the lack of a full fidelity Su-25T to learn the ropes, you have to understand that I really hate to fly with keybinds! I am trying it now with the free A-4E module, sad that the community has to do this work, but I am very thankful that it is even possible to get for free a full fidelity plane, thx to the authors of this great module! @ED Please make the Su-25 a free full fidelity plane. I really wish the FC3 content would be seperately released as full fidelity planes, the game lacks alot soviet made full fidelity planes IMHO. The game need IMHO desperately a Korea map in the 50s and a Vietnam map in the 60s/70s, we have aircrafts but not the most iconic maps for these aircrafts, not good! Some aircraft wishes (all full fidelity and clickable cockpits plz): Mi-2 Mi-4 Mi-14PL Mi-17 Mi-24D Mig-17 Su-22 Mig-23 Il-28 Tu-16 Tu-22 An-2 Il-14 L-410 Tu-134 Chinese copys H-13 H-34 CH-53 CH-54 CH-47 SH-3 AH-1 F-84 F-104 A-1 A-6 A-29 A-37 (one of my favourites) C-47 C-130 OV-10 V-22 F-4 A-3 FB-111 1
FlankerKiller Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 As an old timer can I just say I agree with everything you are asking for. And it's nice to see someone wanting aircraft that can be developed. I belive there is some reason the FC birds can't be full fidelity. I know everyone wants the latest and greatest. But I really want to click switches in that A model flanker. Plus as you pointed out we need some mid to late cold War jets for the Cat to hunt. 2
Boosterdog Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 FF Su25 would be fantastic. A clickable cockpit as a minimum would be fantastic. Messing about trying to remember a gazillion keybinds is a sorry state of affairs. One of my favourite fixed wings and one I never use simply because my set up doesn’t comfortably allow. 2 MSI Tomahawk X570 Mobo, Ryzen 5600X undervolted on Artic Freezer E34 Cooler, RTX3080 FE, 32GB (2x16GB Dual Ranked) GSkil 3600 CL16 Trident Neo RAM, 2X 4th Gen M2 SSDs, Corsair RM850x PSU, Lancool 215 Case. Gear: MFG Crosswinds, Warthog Throttle, Virpil T50CM gen 1 stick, TIR5, Cougar MFD (OOA), D-link H7/B powered USB 2.0 Hub all strapped to a butchered Wheel stand pro, Cushion to bang head on, wall to scream at.

Honestly so many of the switches move, it wouldn't be too far off. I'm sure it's Shikvl works the same as the one in the KA-50. Radios are the same too. Flight model is already an AFM, or PFM. I'm Not sure these days. What else is there that isn't modeled. It would be awesome. It dose all the air to ground things things. And for the old timers like me it would be nostalgic. The Su-25T kinda started it all. It was the first jet after the break with Ubisoft. It was the first AFM in Lockon flaming cliffs. It really was the first glimpse at what ED could do. Before DCS ED had planed a project called Tank Killers. When the Apache releases it will be mostly complete. It was the Ka-50, the A-10A I belive, the Su-25T, and the AH-64. That's almost there in full fidelity. Really just need the Frogfoot. And it would be nice if they would do the A-10A FF too. I'd buy that day one. But getting an FF Su-25T would really make it happen. So yeah Egale Dynamics pleas consider making it happen.
Mike_Romeo Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 There is a mod in development which works already on the Su-27, J-11A and Su-33 which makes the Cockpit of FC-3 planes clickable https://github.com/RedK0d/CLICKABLE-FC3 My skins

They wont make it for free and dont have the capabilities to work on modules and on the DCS engine at once. We need more third party developers that fill the missing gaps. 1 My skins
Evoman Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) The main reason there aren't more Russian aircraft in DCS is because Russia has a tight restrictions on data on military aircraft. Therefore making it almost impossible to acquire the necessary data and permissions to be able to make a full fidelity simulation. So unless you got some connections with the Kremlin so that they will relax some restrictions on at least some of the older aircraft it will be almost impossible. Edited February 18, 2022 by Evoman 1

All that said, MiG-17, MiG-23, A-6, and F-4 are all in development. F-4 is slated for this year. Also, we have the 24P, the dinky little 12.7 chin turret kind of loses all appeal after you rip through an IFV with that flying buzzsaw of a 30mm. 1 Reformers hate him! This one weird trick found by a bush pilot will make gunfighter obsessed old farts angry at your multi-role carrier deck line up!

I agree big time with the lack of a Vietnam or Korean map. I can see the argument that a Vietnam map would cause our CPUs to melt but Korea is different. At the minimum I would like at least like more cold war assets I'd also like a cold war gone hot Central Europe map On 2/17/2022 at 5:54 AM, CouX said: I am trying it now with the free A-4E module, sad that the community has to do this work, but I am very thankful that it is even possible to get for free a full fidelity plane, thx to the authors of this great module!

When it comes to Soviet planes we will be limited to cold war aircraft which is why I think assets and blue mods should focus on that era as well On 2/17/2022 at 5:54 AM, CouX said: The game need IMHO desperately a Korea map in the 50s and a Vietnam map in the 60s/70s, we have aircraft but not the most iconic maps for these aircraft, not good!
