I think it would make a great addition to DCS because:

1. Cold-War era is rising and the "C" or even "C II" isnt really fitting in.

2. It would be a "Back to the roots" Version. When setting up the Pavepenny-Pod was a thing and the Maverick  was essential for Situational Awareness.

Was initially a planned version by ED, but that was supressed by the A-10C project.

For Work/Gaming: 28" Philips 246E Monitor - Ryzen 7 1800X - 32 GB DDR4 - nVidia RTX1080 - SSD 860 EVO 1 TB / 860 QVO 1 TB / 860 QVO 2 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Warthog / TPR / MDF

If you can get it Running A-10 Attack! And Cuba! Are this exactly with a clickable cockpit and realistic flight and damage model. A temporary aid to your thirst.

There's always RedK0d's project

A remarkable effort, and fun. I'm a sponsor, so maybe my view is biased. Decide for yourself. It's at least a stopgap, and as a VR user it makes the the 10A so much better

What is interesting even our FC3 A-10A is not Cold War/Desert Storm version. Our FC3 A-10A is mid 1990s Low-Altitude Safety and Targeting Enhancement (LASTE) upgrade, which provided computerized weapon-aiming equipment, an autopilot, and a ground-collision warning system.

That being said proper Cold War/Desert Storm A-10A with green camo would be great, quite simple to operate, friendly for the new players, not requiring remembering very long MFD computer procedures, even if you just want to fire unguided rockets. At the same time it would require to go close and personal to attack enemy targets using classic pilot skills and manual aiming gun, rockets, bombs. And in 1970s/1080s it was still capable to operate in high threat enviroment, not only anti-insurgency CAS. A-10A would be easy to learn, hard to master.

I never specified which version i´d prefer. Honestly if i could choose, i would choose each variant :D. I like the idea of a raw aircraft as well as i like the idea of a Late "A" model as an in between version. Im pretty shure i wont get any of those but since everyone here is dreaming i thought i tell here my two cents.

With that beeing said i will absolutely take a look on that. But this is just void filler. As far as i understand it, i cant use this mod on public servers but just on servers that support this mod which limits its use. (Not shure about that one)

This is news to me,  it did not fail integrity checks(at least not the version I'm using), so you can use it without restrictions on any server (AFAIK). No server support is required for this mod. But please verify yourself.

Do you have any issues with the mod after each patch update?
