I don't hold my breath...

But just because no Dev has commented on it doesn't mean we'll never get a Jaguar. 

No developer has talked much about an F-104 either, although many have wanted one for a long time. And look, Aerges is developing one.

One does not mean the other.

Agree. After F-104G and Mirage IIIEE (obviously must have). Jaguar will be a nice to have. I love my F1CE, and can't wait for Full fidelity radar for it!

 

my best regards

 Aerges! Bring it to DCS!

Maybe we should make a Kickstarter, lol.

In fact AzurPoly is making a great work for MSFS, And the Jaguar is on the way to become a great module. I owned the C-160 Transall and love flying with it. As now you can also make AAR. I told them to make it for DCS too, but they told me, that it's a lot of work, and could be complicated to transfer the FM to DCS as they are totally different.

Unfortunately it's just MSFS, but isn't this plane beautiful? Make it for DCS after F-104! 

We now have a map of Iraq, oh how it would fit there...

Love to get a Jag even before the F-104.

Second that, I want my Jaguar, not that one with a recent ad everyone talks about. They can go super fast at super low, and show up in Germany map in the future too.

We need it for DCS! @Vibora

For those that what AzurPoly to bring the Jaguar to DCS, I recommend letting them know your interest. Here is their Facebook link where you can chime in.

I questioned them about the possibility of making the C160 Transall for DCS. They answered, that there are 2 different worlds, about coding and assigning all args... Maybe one day.

As long as they can have the weapons firing, I am fine…

Seems like they have limited knowledge on knowing how to code for only one sim. If AzurPoly is not in a position to make that expansion then they should try to partner with other 3rd parties that do know how to  code for DCS. As good as HeatBlur is they were also not in a position to bring their Tomcat to MSFS alone so they partnered with India Foxt Echo to help them do it.  Other 3rd parties like Flying Iron simulations work on both. Below is the latest update that Flying Iron put out. 

Hey guys!
I apologize for the lack of updates, I know everyone’s been really eager to hear some news and we’ve had my head in the sand a little bit. Sorry about that! The module is still very much in active development; we have just been quiet as far as news and updates to try and reduce our workload a little bit, but we can see that’s getting abit frustrating and we need to do better with our communication.

Right now our time is split roughly 50/50 between DCS & MSFS; as you might have guessed already we rely on our MSFS work to continue funding development of the A7 and so it does require us to split our time between the 2 sims, at least at this stage. After our upcoming release for MSFS 2024, we will then be pivoting to place the full team back onto the A7 to significantly speed up the development process.

Currently I am continuing to put alot of hours into the A-7 codebase & have begun collaborating with ED to work on the Terrain Following & Terrain Avoidance radar modes. The last few weeks have been spent doing some optimizations, refactoring & cleanup and improving the robustness of the code base. Not the most exciting thing, but essential for a smooth & bug-free module! More significantly I spent some time developing a new Lookup-Table system, which powers a vast amount of aircraft systems and flight model data underneath the hood. By breaking away from the traditional index-based iterative search methods (eg the CPU must search through all 50 data points in a 50-point table to find the correct value) we’ve been able to develop a mathematical index system that is able to calculate and find the correct data point in a single call. I’ll explain this in more detail in our first mini-update in a few weeks. TLDR: The heaviest parts of our codebase have been optimized to run significantly faster!

With all that said, I’ll be doing my best to post some sort of monthly mini-update here in our discord server to keep you all in the loop with how the module is progressing, and hopefully help ease some of the frustration of waiting. I’ll also be doing one of my detailed dev reports, but not for another few months when we have some breathing room.

I hope you can understand and as always thank you so much for continuing to support us! All of your messages, activity, requests for news and just general love for the A7 absolutely does not go unnoticed – it’s a constant reminder of just how passionate the DCS & A7 community is, and it gives us the motivation & reassurance to see this project through to the end, even when it seems difficult.

So thank you all, truly

Dan from the Flying Iron Simulations team on Discord
