WildBillKelsoe Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) I am bidding on the version we are getting its probably the 1967 version used in NAM. I wouldn't expect glass cockpit display or digital instruments... I would expect A LOT of round dial instruments.. Edited February 12, 2023 by WildBillKelsoe AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK in the US, only the MH47 have a refuel probe attached. Not sure about other countries. I would appreciate a MH47 with wide fuel body, refuel probe and all the other tech, but I highly doubt we get that lucky. Spec Ops stuff doesnt really fit into the scope of ED sadly.

Viper ZA Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I really want this bird as I only fly Helo's now, but I still clueless as to how to use transport craft In DCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruman Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Well, there are some logistic scripts in MP around. You loadup stuff on Point A and fly them to Point B. Delivering ammo to FARPS and Airfields. Sure, it gives you a purpose, but its lacking any immersion. No soldiers visible in the back, no possibilty to jump out and walk around. No helping loading stuff into the bird. At the current stage, I would say flying rotary is more fullfilling in Arma than DCS. Too bad the flight/damage model in Arma is bad.

corbu1 Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Yep, if DCS slingloading gets improved….there‘s great options slingloading with CH-47.

The Mi-8 cockpit could use some love, but it flies like a dream. Not that it's easy, but that it's good. Really has a great feel to it.

Johnny Dioxin Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Despite not wanting to buy more modules until I'd got some use out of the last 3 I bought and have had no time in, I would have thrown my money at this had it been an analogue cockpit, especially being an ex-Support Helicopter Force member (for 18sqn Chinooks and 230sqn Pumas) - but glass cockpits don't do it for me at all.

Too bad the flight/damage model in Arma is bad. It is more fullfilling, indeed, but for reasons like complex and close interactions with other players, graphic fidelity of a terrain, etc. The advanced flight model in Arma isn't that bad. Rotor Dynamics libraries are of military-grade, but those implemented in Arma lacks crucial modules, a real shame. However, both RTD and a damage model are modable to a great extent.

I'm just as excited but the trailer just means that ED will develop it, not that its about to drop.
