Convoy Posted March 1 Posted March 1 (edited) Wags mentioned in the Q&A there's "another" helicopter in the works. I am really hoping it's a Cobra and if it is, I plead with you ED, to start on that sooner rather than later. My assumption is you want to delay it until the Apache is more complete, but I think they can coexist now. Vietnam/Cold War era is obviously the best era for military aircraft and the AH-64D is a bit too modern for that. So if it is a Cobra, I say bring it on. I can't think of a single helo flyer I've ever talked to that wouldn't love to fly one. Edited March 1 by Convoy 5

MAXsenna Posted March 1 Posted March 1 If American, it's probably the Cobra, or the Sioux, while Comanche would be dope.As for a European one, I can't really see what possibly could be in the works.Russian? Wouldn't surprise me if we get a real surprise like the Ka-52 or something. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk

Since the Bo-105 (hopefully soon) may become reality, I'd love to see Eurocopter Tiger (I've got a soft spot in my heart for the Bo-105, as that was the main attack chopper when I served in the (West-German) army and it was awesome to see them getting into the action during our dynamic exercises) 2 1

That's why I don't see another European coming. Except I did forget my other wish. Now bring me a Lynx!The Tiger never peaked my interest. Not sure if this is still true:"The German Ministry of Defense is considering scrapping its fleet of Tiger combat helicopters and replacing them with Airbus H145Ms, modified for anti-tank missions".

DD_fruitbat Posted March 1 Posted March 1 (edited) I'm hoping for the Cobra..... Unpopular opinion probably, but would like a Whiskey... Edited March 1 by DD_fruitbat 4

Tom P Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Most likely AH-1W. Wags hinted at it almost a year ago on a podcast. 2
Kev2go Posted March 2 Posted March 2 If its the cobra i hope its the Ah1W not the Ah1F. Whiskey can still use TOW's for those who want an olderschool missile, but it can carry the Hellfires too.

Mainstay Posted March 2 Posted March 2 To be honest another bluefor helo is just boring… For the love of rotors I’m hoping for a Ka-52 or a Mi-28 3

erniedaoage Posted March 2 Posted March 2 I don't know if i remember it right, but before the announcement of the apache, there were talks about the cobra. And i think someone said the are using the apache as a testbed for the george ai and it will be easier to impement it into the cobra. Instead of doing it the other way around. But i could be false i mean it's a couple of years ago since there were talks about a cobra. 3 Specs:WIN10, I7-4790K, ASUS RANGER VII, 16GB G.Skill DDR3, GEFORCE 1080, NVME SSD, SSD, VIRPIL T-50 THROTTLE, K-51 COLLECTIVE, FFBBeast Virpil Alpha+VFX Grip, MFG CROSSWINDS, JETPAD, RIFT S Modules:A10C, AH-64D, AJS-37, AV8B, BF109K4, CA, F/A18C, F14, F5EII, F86F, FC3, FW190A8, FW190D9, KA50, L39, M2000C, MI8TV2, MI24P, MIG15BIS, MIG19P, MIG21BIS, MIRAGE F1, P51D, SA342, SPITFIRE, UH1H, NORMANDY, PERSIAN GULF, CHANNEL, SYRIA Thrustmaster TWCS Afterburner Detent https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=223776 My Frankenwinder ffb2 stick https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/254426-finally-my-frankenwinder-comes-alive/
hmleao Posted March 2 Posted March 2 (edited) I'd like a Viper. After getting used to the Apache, I don't think I'd be inclined to get another attack helicopter without longbow. Edited March 4 by hmleao 2
Fear-Factor Posted March 2 Posted March 2 As for me a Cobra or Mi28 would be the best choice. It has to fit the acutal available helicopters in DCS. Dont really understand those proposal of "flying motorhome"..... what would you do with that in DCS? Transport helos do not make lot of sense of missing logistic possibilities. When proper logistics would be available so a CH53 would be then interesting. Blackhawk would be also great. Attm i would prefer to have the Mi28 to be a counterpart for the AH64D 1 Corsair 7000D Airflow Big Tower Case / i7-13700k / MSI Mag Z790 Tomahawk DDR5 / Corsair Dominator 64GB DDR5 5200MHz / Palit RTX4090 GameRock 24GB / Corsair HX1000i / Corsair H170i Elite Capellix AIO with Display Kit / 1x Samsung 980 Pro SSD M.2 / 1x Crucial SSD M.2 / 1x Crucial SSD MX500 / 1x Samsung 870 QVO SSD / Samsung Odyssey G8 34 Inch Oled 3440x1440 175Hz / VR HP Reverb G2 v2 / VKB Gladiator NXT + RH Premium grip / VKB Gladiator NXT + LH Premium grip + 45 deg Omni Adapter / 2x VKB GNX SEM Side extension module / self made rig frame
