deonkwon Posted May 30, 2022 Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) How about develop P-8 Poseidon base on B737? There are many players who enjoy both DCS and MSFS or X-plane. B737 is loved very very much from airline users and there are so much data and models so it will be not so hard to develop I think. I saw many gamers who are eager to transit to DCS from airline. And I saw many C2 Tactical Controllers who enjoyed theater controlling. So I think it will be one of the good way to them. Edited May 30, 2022 by deonkwon 3
bies Posted May 30, 2022 Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) P-8 Poseidon has been proposed at least few times before. But we would need anti submarine warfare simulation as it doesn't exist in DCS right now, you can play i.e. Sonalyst's Dangerous Waters to see how enjoyable P-8 Poseidon (or SH-60) is with proper ASW simulation. ED most likely doesn't have any free manpower to make ASW simulation from the ground so we would need to wait some specialised naval 3rd party to join and to make it. When it comes to 737AEW&C - yes, some more detailed and realistic AWACS simulation is very much needed in DCS as it influence the whole air combat since 1960s - 2010. At least very basic factors like radar dish rotation and limited refresh rate, angular resolution and limited accuracy and merges, limited target diambiguation/identification capabilities etc. Commanding an air battle, like in "F-22 TAW", with resonably realistic AWACS would surely be satisfying. cheers Edited May 30, 2022 by bies 1 1
