The aircraft you listed are mostly post Vietnam blocks that feature significant changes to the Vietnam era jets. If I remember correctly even the F-8 is a post Vietnam model more inline with the Mig-21bis, which is also post Vietnam. It would be like saying that the F-18C we currently have is a Desert storm aircraft. The same for the Viper. Nether are even close the their Desert storm couterparts system and capability wise. The only kinda Vietnam aircraft in DCS at the moment is the Mig-19, with the A-1, and the F-100 on the way. Trust me I want DCS Vietnam as much if not more then the next guy. But for awhile to come it just isn't a thing. I wasn't sure which versions of the A-7 and A-6 were were getting but I was thinking the F-8 was out of production in the 1970s and the F-4J would be a linebacker bird and there was a B planned. Anyway my point is still remains the A-4 mod isn't stopping them from being made
FlankerKiller Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 I certainly hope your right. I would love to see the early cold war. There was alot of attention given to the A-4 in the 2023 and beyond video. So I'm hoping something is coming there. I really wish it could be made the official free aircraft of DCS. I personally think that the Korea, India/Pakistan Civil War, Sueaz canal crisis, Six Day War, early to mid Vietnam War would be absolutely a blast in DCS. Provided enough coverage. I think the F-8 is a post Vietnam NATO model.
