That mogami has a problem.... the forward turret has very aft, or has the perspective.

I think, that has Zeros.

[Diesel_Thunder]

The canopy is an easy way to tell the Zero apart from the Fw-190. The Zero has a more rounded canopy with the "window frames".

Definitely an A6M Zero in the video!

Better pics... Zero confirmed.

I came, I saw... I came. 17, 23, now even 29 - rejoice my fellow Miggers! And all the warbirds! And the maps! I mean, what's more to wish for in the map department?! (Aside from Vietnam and the world map ofc, but that's a whole different effort.) And the logistics framework can only mean one thing to me - dynamic campaign! As if the 2.9 version number wasn't enough of an indication, we're about to see some exciting times, folks!

That MiG-23 looked really good as well - just a shame it was only a glimpse

I have passed on your comment to the team, thanks

[Jayhawk1971]

Great video! I'm absolutely stoked about what's in the pipeline for the near future. Iraq (!), Afghanistan, Hellcat, Corsair (twice!), Marianas 1944, OH-58D, Chinook, C-130,  Kola, AI Intruder....the list goes on and on.

And as a bonus, every year we get DCS: ASMR  (Nick Grey's voice).

Really great seeing so much of the CH-47. That's my baby!

But there was a "downgrade" of the version during the development phase? It looks like it's now the version without weather radar and laser obstacle avoidance system.

And the fore and aft turret shapes... only turret 3 and 4 has colimators

Not a downgrade. The model was corrected to match a US CH-47F. Thanks.

Committed to deliver in 2024?! Where did you get that from? The Newsletter says , quote "Let’s take a brief look at the new aircraft under development in 2024"
Nowhere does it say these will be delivered in 2024. 

 

 

As per the screenshot.  The way that video flows is with the first 2/3rds being "this lot is on the overall plan, but with no dates", followed by the "coming in 2024" with the clips of Iraq and the Mig29a.  That seems fairly explicit to me.

The 2023 has only a "placebo", ground object of incorrect version.... the 2024 has more details.

Thanks @ED for the video  Is that the Kola map at 1:04 in the video?

Thanks for clarification, on the way to release if there will be room ( even after initial release ) for the upgraded version with LOAM V2, weather radar etc.., it will be well appreciated

Maybe there will be variants or future updates.

 

I'll be happy to fly it no matter what.

@BIGNEWY

When talking about future MiG-29A, which one is planned: 9.12 (OG Soviet MiG-29), 9.12A (WARPAC sligtly downgraded MiG-29) or 9.12B (downgraded MiG-29 for other countries).

Or did we got luck and will get 9.13?

[pimp]

Great video as always from GA. I am really interested in the Chinook and how ground troops and logistics will evolve.

How are the new ground troop models progressing? I remember a few years ago there was a newsletter showing the new troop models.

Great video and first newsletter of 2024.

@3:20 Saving Private Ryan Beach scene. How to recreate this moving MG42 view in game?

[Mikey74]

Finally the Fulcrum A, thx for this Teaser, im overhyped now

 

I've never stopped believing in you !

[dali]

I like how this has become somehow a gift for the end of the year (or beginning, depends on your optics) - the beyond video, that is. I'm over 50, but was waiting this video like a child

thank you.

[Mogster]

Not really my bag but it’s great for the sim to see the Mig-29A announced. REDFOR fans have been starved of a more modern full fidelity fixed wing airframe for too long.

and interesting to note that they were the only modules that ED have committed to deliver in 2024, i.e. that the Corsairs, Intruder, Kiowa are not guaranteed for 2024.

 

Interuder is definitely not coming in 2024(Except as AI asset) the full module is scheduled to be worked on properly after the Eurofighter, which again begins it's major development after the F4 is released.

 

I'm personally very happy to see so much Corsair and I'll take that as sign it might come sooner rather than later.

Also love all the other PTO stuff.

[linside]

I think 2024 is not the year of Dynamic campaign

But awesome video and other news...
