how to write if there is no russian keyboard layout?

How? You just add the language and the keyboard layout? Install language packs?

Personally I wish for as much realism as possible, and that means I'd love to have the cockpit seen in NATO-converted examples. That way I get English labels and some NATO standard instruments, mixed with very few Russian labels, which will be easy to learn if needed. 

So since this NATO cockpit exists, it would be a shame if they simply took a Russian Air Force cockpit and translate all labels to English. Why do an unrealistic English cockpit if a realistic English one exists in reality! 

[Gierasimov]

I guess it will be like it is with Hind. Full original cockpit and full EN translated one. 

The actual one will be dependent on reference aircraft ED is going to simulate. So far they only confirmed it is going to be 9.12 Warsaw Pact export version, however this could mean very different things as far as cockpit labels go; therefore I think it will be like it is with Hind.

WP military hardware typically had Russian language cockpits. Russian was usually taught in schools the way English is now, so that wouldn't have been an issue.

[pjbunnyru]

if there were screens with multiple systems and subsystems, desire for translation would be understandable.

but what cant u remember in cockpit?  location of  switches is unchanged.

Because that would also mean TACAN instead of RSBN/PRMG, a different radio, different IFF system, etc. pp. ... a lot of additional work for ED.

It would be great if there was a 'spotlight' translation, where only the area you were looking directly at was translated into your native language.

I think this is a bit too much to ask. It'd be seriously complex to implement, with little benefit.

Dear ED: can you please release to all the Mig-29 manual / QS guide before the actual release of the module, so that people will get ready for it in time?

Thank you very much!

[tradingwaste]

It would be cool if we got it soon, cause am guessing another 1-2 months before we actually get the FF Mig29A. So at least in the mean time we could start going over it

Did you know one single module there which have a fully completed manual?

BTW: I'm not asking for the full module manual, but for the Quick Start /EA guide they said/promised will be released along with the module.

IMHO that whould be enough to start

Yep it would be nice indeed!

In the meanwhile I am digesting this one:

Yep, it is actually a re-print of GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1. Searching via google GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 pdf will lead to a few hits.

I would like to have such a book nearby just for beauty. But they probably don't release them in Russia (because there are "American, European, Japanese and other spies around"), and they can't order it from the United States because of the sanctions. I wanted to buy the books "Operation Linebacker I 1972: The first high-tech air war" in a paper version, but due to the sanctions, the price turned out to be very high. About the same as two modules in DCS. Moreover, I have no doubt that hardly anyone from all over Russia was going to buy these books.)

 

[LordOrion]

Think I found the full (450 pages) version of the manual above.

The german version has a TACAN radio, I don't think we can expect to get it.

For sure we won't. DCS is based on initial Warsaw Pact version although a lot of Polish Air Force Fulcrum in the trailer (which were modified to fit into NATO standards).

As always, DCS simulation game manual will differ from the real one.

Do you have a link? I've found part 1 and part 2 that takes you up to about 150 odd pages.

Google for "GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 pdf avialogs", should be the 1st result.

There's already an option for cockpit labels highlighted by the mouse cursor.
