DCS is downloading lots of unneeded aircraft

Maybe this has already been asked dozens of times, but I am not able to find any thread related to it. DCS is downloading near 100Gb of aircraft that I do not own, which is wasting up a huge space on my hard disk. How can I avoid it to download all those aircraft under the folder "CoreMods"?

Hi, 

you can manage your downloaded aircraft in your module manager, use the bin icon to delete aircraft you do not want to use currently. 

CoreMods however are required so you can see other aircraft in game. 

thank you

Thank you everyone for your quick help!

I do not think deleting my 15gb of the aircraft that I actually own and use would be of any help, compared to the 100gb that are not directly used by me (having in mind that are actually needed to see other aircraft in the game.

you get all these core mods because, if you use MP for instance, how would the AI appear or other players for that matter appear to you? all AC have to have a model to display. SP is the same. if you download an SP mission, you need the models.

You have installed 360 GB worth of maps, if you are short on space you can always uninstall the maps you are not currently flying on.
