BuzzU Posted September 21, 2022 Posted September 21, 2022 I bought the A-10C II two years ago to the month. That seems long enough to install a radio. I'm not impatient. Just saying. 2 Buzz
ASAP Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 The delay isn’t a bug, it’s a feature! In an effort to be as realistic as possible DCS is following real world timelines for getting updated equipment on the jet. Congress has approved funding, it’s gotten through testing and development, now it’s waiting on inspection phase inspection cycles on the jet to align conveniently for maintenance to install them… but oh wait the air force is trying to kill the jet again and took away our budget to do the installs so standby on any new updates, put the parts in a warehouse and stand by for words until we forget the part is there… DCS is crushing the realism of the USAF acquisition timeline! 10
BuzzU Posted September 22, 2022 Posted September 22, 2022 Yeah, but i'm getting old meanwhile. It's just a radio ED. You can do it. Throw the Hog Drivers a bone. Fighters get all the meat. We just want a bone. 4 Buzz

Same really as the current AH module - D model.

Could also argue for the Brits out there why hasn't the UK DAS suite been modelled, likewise Israeli, etc etc etc... I guess ultimately as 'simmers' 'we' will never be happy (to a more or lesser degree), similar to real life pilots, and will always want the best kit, against what the simulation actually represents in terms of modelling at a particular date stamp?

I would just like ED to actually finish a product. That's the whole point. A radio has taken them over 2 years to implement, and now coming up on six months since the developer "returned" to it, because it does not pay them anymore to put in the work. It's frustrating from a customer perspective. I don't require them to add more than was slated, just that they don't take eons to achieve what would appear to be a relatively simple task. ED lacks follow through. 4

The A-10C (v1 and v2) isn’t anywhere near a specific suite. The original release had a mixture of suite 3 and 5 features and version 2 has a few suite 7 plus features but has so many items in the TAD, HMCS, TGP, and HUD missing you couldn’t truly say ED was trying to model that suite either. it will be interesting to see how accurately the ARC-210 is modeled and if things like UFC integration and HUD projected info is included. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website

Snoopy Posted December 16, 2022 Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) Another update and newsletter with the no mention of the A-10C II. I know what the response will be but it really does appear that the module is abandoned. Released over two years ago but we’re suppose to be patient for promised and advertised items not being included yet. It would be nice if a newsletter at least mentioned the progress of the ARC-210 instead of just telling us a programmer has been assigned. We were told 6 months (and counting) ago they were assigned.
