Mike Force Team Posted August 6, 2023 Posted August 6, 2023 Here is a suggestion for a future map. Let's have Alaska's Glacier Bay Map. This is a beautiful, unspoiled part of Alaska that would be a joy to fly virtually. You get to set pristine forests, small fishing communities, and many passenger cruise ships. You also get to see many large glaciers. I attached a map. Mike Force Team Alaska Glacier Bay Map--on August 6 2023.pdf
draconus Posted August 7, 2023 Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) A 50x100 miles DCS map? No sea, basically one country, no historic or even probable conflict relevance... Seriously?

Extend the map 3000 km to the west and you can include the Aleutian Islands. Depending on how you do it, you could end up with a lot of water without too much land to model for naval operations, too.

Bosun Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Yup, natural way for that to make it in, would be to include it in an entire map that covers Southeast Alaska, up through the peninsula and out to the Aluetians. You could get Behm Canal in there, where they do secret sub stuff.
IndyNavy Posted September 24, 2023 Posted September 24, 2023 This would be great for artic training and CSAR. And logistics eventually with C-130J. Lots of F-22s/F-35s up there so makes sense for a training map. 1 1 https://www.twitch.tv/indynavy
IndyNavy Posted September 24, 2023 Posted September 24, 2023 Yes please, this would be epic. T-45C for FCLP PC-9A for Primary Training Maybe one day a T-6 Texan. 1 https://www.twitch.tv/indynavy
toni Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 Indeed, that portion of the Gulf would be nice for trainning and given that we would have a lot of sea southbound,may be Key West NAS could be included 1
Vmac77 Posted February 19, 2024 Posted February 19, 2024 I'll bump this, although change the area in Alaska to cover both Anchorage (Elmendorf AFB and Ft. Richardson) and Fairbanks (Eielson AFB, Ft. Wainwright, Ft. Greely). Cover an area roughly outlined by W 156°45' to W 140°53' and N 59°15 to N 66°57. It would also include Clear Air Force Station Base......."Clear Air Force Station is one of the most strategically important installations in the United States. The location of the base places it in an invaluable position for defensive monitoring of the west coast and Untied States as a whole. The station is one of the first in a series of early detection installations that […]"........quoted from https://militarybases.com/alaska. Large MOA's around the Fairbanks area and could have a lot of "what-if" scenario's defending the US early warning systems and invasions.
IndyNavy Posted February 8 Posted February 8 (edited) With the F-35A coming now to DCS, would it be crazy to see a Bering Sea map with Alaska? Could be used to simulate arctic simulations and defense exercises against the Russian ADIZ. About 78 F-35As operate in Alaska between Eielson Air Force Base & Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson.

unclesneep Posted March 17 Posted March 17 (edited) Please let me relive my childhood Red Dawn fantasies! Portland, Salem, maybe Seattle including the naval bases and the puget sound.. Dont forget mt st Helen's, Mt hood..etc.. I think it could make an exciting map.. Edited March 17 by unclesneep 1

smoking_ace420 Posted April 25 Posted April 25 (edited) I would like to see a map of Cuba, Florida and the Gulf Coast modeled. It would be great for a second Cuban Missile Crisis campaign occurring in the late Cold War with the Admiral Kuznetsov, Su-33/27 and Cuban Mig-29s to meet another Bay of Pigs invasion. I think this would be a cooler and more interesting map than Syria as it offers a chance to fly missions involving the USA's borders. Edited April 25 by smoking_ace420 1
upyr1 Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Yes, I'd love to see some of the other islands there if possible, the Gulf would be awesome. My requests for assets would be the following USS Lexington- F-101 F-102/6 - They would have a role in a Cuban missile crisis gone hot F-105 (we just need the Thud mmmm Kay preferably fliable) B-56 B-66/A-3 (my dad's plane) B-52 with tail gun more amphibious warfare stuff 2
__Timberwolf__ Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I would love this (as another Pacific Northwesterner) This would be an awesome spot to fly the upcoming A-6E out of Whidbey and F-15C out of Portland and historically McChord. This would also be great for the AH-64D and Chinook from JBLM, maybe a future UH-60. A C-17 would be cool, but an official Growler or Prowler module is probably half a century out . The map wouldn't have to be too big either, with the height of both Washington and Oregon being about half the width of the Sinai map! Too bad there would be no reason to extend it to Mountain Home for some Strike Eagle action... V I R T U A L E L E C T R O N I C A T T A C K
Gambit21 Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I live hear NAS Whidbey, and would love to see this. It would never happen though. We'd need the Cascades as they fly low lever VR's through there etc. More plausible would be an Alaska/Bearing Straights map. That would also give us Red Flag Alaska. That I can actually see happening at some point.

__Timberwolf__ Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I'm from Anacortes. I'd do anything to be able to fly the VR1355 in DCS, unfortunately, there's not enough to justify this map. This is why I wish we could have community-made maps. 1 V I R T U A L E L E C T R O N I C A T T A C K
Mike Force Team Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I have, also, suggested a Cuban Missile crisis map on several occasions. We have the jets for it on the REDFOR and BLUFOR. Mike Force Team 1
bies Posted May 13 Posted May 13 Dictional something would be medicore. But 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis would be awesome. With F-4B, F-8, MiG-21F-13 and ather aircrafts of the era. 1

With F-4B, F-8, MiG-21F-13 and ather aircrafts of the era. Yes, it would be better than the Syria map, but we also need more SAM and ground units from the era (i also don't see that version of the Mig-21 or any of the jets from the era on my end, but I also ran out of room for updates almost a year ago. The Cuba map would also be greatly lacking without the naval assets. Edited May 20 by smoking_ace420 2

Mike Force Team Posted May 21 Posted May 21 @bies ED has their different teams working on other projects. Perhaps a team from ED might start working on it in the future.
