Dragon1-1 Posted January 6, 2023 Posted January 6, 2023 Come on, the D? That's too modern, give me a Vietnam-era A model any time. Complete with the ACH-47A, miniguns and spiffy jungle camo. 6

Razorback Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 Hind...released in June 21! CH-47 release : I don't expect anything for 2023...and there is no rush! I prefer to wait for a module nearly finished than a to early release... 1
MemphisBelle Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 What I've learned about ED releases is that they look for a close release after announcement (within 1 year +- a few month). Third party devs on the other hand are different. They shouldn't announce anything until it is ready to be included in release cycle. 2 BlackSharkDen | BSD Discord | DCS Tutorial Collection

I seem to remember it was pencilled in for Q4 2021 and people got angsty though…
BaD CrC Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 Looks like the F model. Don't care much. It is a CH-47 in DCS made by ED. Can't be more awesome than that. 4 https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden

ustio Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) I hope they add the C maybe as pay (down)upgrade since it saw a lot of action from Vietnam to Iran-Iraq, Falklands all the way to war on terror. I might skip this until they add the C Edited January 13, 2023 by ustio 7
Northstar98 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) I'm inclined to agree. Personally, I think I'm going to pass on this one - it seems to be a very modern ICH-47F (it at least has what looks like LOAM V2 underneath it), which doesn't really fit with anything else we have right now. A CH-47C covers more scenarios and a CH-47D better fits with the Apache (in the same sorta way that the Hip fits the Hind).

slowmover Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 I wish ED give us the D verzion. I like to see the guages rather than the big displays 6 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
snocc_ Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) would love to see ED lean more into multi-variant modules like a couple 3rd parties have and deliver an early 47D or C after the F is out, i really like the idea of getting a chinook in DCS but the F doesn't do much for me Edited October 26, 2023 by snocc_ 3 el articulo 140 de la constitucion
ustio Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Yeah agree. If other 3rd party dev is block from making other variant then thats really suck. 2
TheGhostOfDefi Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Maybe for the older generation of helicopters you need to hope for a 53. Same goes for the 64 and cobra… 1
AC_Snowman374th Posted November 14, 2023 Posted November 14, 2023 Yeah we need Vietnam missions. Where's Vietnam?.. As much as we pretend to be there, the map should have been made by now. And we could have a bad arse rescue and attacks missions etc.. Man I get excited thinking about it. Because I make missions or? too.. Trying to make some similar. CH-46 too
LuseKofte Posted November 19, 2023 Posted November 19, 2023 I would never skip this ship. But I prefer a Vietnam era version. To me Huey and chinook are symbols of that conflict. 3
Clyber Posted February 15, 2024 Posted February 15, 2024 (edited) Nah man, screw old version Ch47. Why would they start with an old version and wait another few years before they would add the latest upgrades just as what happened with the KA50 ? Just make the latest F model with its full capabilities with options to strip it down to the lightest version as preferred. We have a lot of old gear flying around in DCS already lets have some more modern aircrafts before this becomes a old aircrafts club. Edited February 15, 2024 by Clyber

Because it's almost certainly easier to sell a later version as an upgrade, than an earlier one. They've done this with the Ka-50 twice and again with the A-10C so it wouldn't be unprecedented. What hasn't been done yet is going newer and then selling an older version later. HB comes close with the Tomcat, but the older variants are bundled in as one. 2 hours ago, Clyber said: Just make the latest F model with its full capabilities with options to strip it down to the lightest version as preferred. ? 2 hours ago, Clyber said: We have a lot of old gear flying around in DCS already lets have some more modern aircrafts before this becomes a old aircrafts club.

By the sound of your post, the newest airplane we got entered service probably before you was born, . So it is an old aircraft club. But I accept and respect your opinion on the matter. I know many here wanting newest possible version of it, I get that, I still buy it. and it would have a lot of work to do. I wasn’t “ordering” ED to make a Vietnam era Chinook. I was expressing what I wished for. Edited February 16, 2024 by LuseKofte 1

LuseKofte Posted February 17, 2024 Posted February 17, 2024 In one of the videos I think it was explained why we do not have the Vietnam map. I do not remember what exactly was said but they simply do not have tha map tool yet. Elevation of water or something. big problem with big rivers 1
