Bucic Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) From the latest entry in official news: Quote As previously announced, this year will see substantial extra resources allocated to improve the DCS Core and address longstanding bugs on the UH-1H, Mi-8MTV, F-5E, and more. Please stay tuned for upcoming details.

Could you post a link to the bug report? I'm interested whether there's a workaround since the RWR is one ofe THE main strengths of F-5E.

DimSim Posted June 11, 2023 Share Posted June 11, 2023 Came looking for update on this topic. Bought the F-5 last year, planning to fly it and play a single player campaign once I've finished my F-18 and Spitfire content. Almost there. Was hoping for some improved visuals by the time I got around to serious flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noctrach Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 There was a newsletter... a year or so ago? That mentioned the wing AIM-9 drag as an improvement point. Right now if you pull >15 AoA with only a single AIM-9 on the wing, it basically flips the aircraft sideways from the drag induced. You have to put in full opposite stick and a lot of rudder to compensate. 1 hour ago, jaguara5 said: ''flight dynamics modelling''.

Curious to know what everyone thinks - I'd still like the RWR to be addressed as the highest priority, but I can't say I'm unhappy about the love it got today! I could give it a bump.

Ramius007 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 With slighty updated weapons and bug fixing this would be interesting module, could buy along PG or SA maps, not asking for AIM 120, becouse this is would be too advanced upgrade and i dont even think healthy one, but AIM 9 L or M, defiinitely Shrikes and some Chinese/Russian basic weapons on Iranian f-5s would be fair and realistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramius007 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 I m new to DCS, F-5 looked like interesting first full fidelity module, I have FC3 and i was toying around with free Skyhawk, but with so restricted loadout F-5 looks too limited and not really realistic, weapons we get looks liike very early model, or not even this (lack of Shrikes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why we would "need" an updated version. The one we have is perfect as is. It just needs a new cockpit with correct geometry in VR, new textures and perhaps some bugfixes. If the existing systems/FM get looked at in order to make it more realistic (if that is needed), all the better. 1 Spoiler Ryzen 9 5900X | 64GB G.Skill TridentZ 3600 | Gigabyte RX6900XT | ASUS ROG Strix X570-E GAMING | Samsung 990Pro 2TB + 960Pro 1TB NMVe | HP Reverb G2 Pro Flight Trainer Puma | VIRPIL MT-50CM2+3 base / CM2 x2 grip with 200 mm S-curve extension + CM3 throttle + CP2/3 + FSSB R3L + VPC Rotor TCS Plus base with SharKa-50 grip mounted on Monstertech MFC-1 | TPR rudder pedals OpenXR | PD 1.0 | 100% render resolution | DCS "HIGH" preset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-5E even if entered service in the 70's, is still operated to this day by many countries, issue with F-5E loadout is rather DCS systemic than module related, thare are plenty of weapons after 1970 that were added without ingerention into or with little ingeretion into avionics. System with no timeline based loadouts limit content per module, you are more or less forced into playing very narrow window of time, and again some weapons are just missing, even for 70's time, maybe we get Shrikes for F-5E after Phantom realese somehow, free A-4 mod have Shrikes, very far from being game changer gameplay wise, with like maybe 20% accuracy at best, but at least give option that was historically availble and reflect historical effectivnes of the weapon, or lack of it Again, nobody is asking for Amraams, Maverics and other stuff that require new FCS, HUD and MFD's to work, just really basic weapons, like ungaided munitions and slighty more modern Sidewinders, even Aim 9L would be an upgrade. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m perfectly happy with this aircraft as represented on DCS, if you want a better armed aircraft then purchase a more modern one, like the F-15E While shrikes would be completely a-historical, Taiwan and Saudi Arabia used EO Mavericks on their F-5Es for a long time. If the F-5E is going to get a full rework on the level of the A-10C II and Ka-50 BS 2/3, I would shoot for one of those. Mission maker option for x4 winders, and EO mavericks (in addition to the long standing bugs and inaccuracies of the current offering) would be well worth it, and would better place the F-5E in DCS as its most advanced and capable version that saw the most service outside the USA. The F-5E we currently have in game is a bit of a franken-plane Swiss re-export back to USN for aggressor training, but it's what ED/BST could get a full document/performance library for, so its what we got in DCS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
