celestHawk Posted August 20 Posted August 20 Hello, I would like to ask about two specific Airfields in PG map. The one I noticed on SAT picturnulle of the map - Zahedan The other one is 'no name' and I wonder what are the plans with it - info in the screenshot However Zahedan airport I noticed first on Afghanistan map and transferred the beacon info to PG which make me wonder 'How can I create Airports/AFB on a map"?null Win10 • E5-2698 • 64GB • Quadro P4000 Ai-Track • Xbox F-15C • F-16C • F/A-18C || Su-25 • Su-27 • MiG-29 || F-22 • F-15EX • JAS-39 MilitaryAircraftMod • CH-Iran • Clean Cockpit Afghanistan • Persian Gulf • Iraq • Syria → will see
GeoS72 Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM +1 for making this an active airfield in the PG map! Based on my research, this airbase has 2 names: Qusahwira Air Base and UM Elzumol 1. If this airfield in the Abu Dhabi Emirate doesn't exist in the game, then why does it have parking slots? Since it is modeled, it would make more sense to just add it to the list of airfields and warehouses. I'm unaware of how much work goes into making all the logistics for a base work but it looks like most of the hard work was done! As an interim, laying down invisible FARP pads in several locations can replicate the refuel/rearm functions. The "invisible" airfield that represents Qusahwira Air Base has at least 16 parking spots. Here are 2 satellite images with ID labels. 1st label is Um Elzumol 1. The 2nd satellite image has the ID label of Qusahwira Air Base.
Tholozor Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago As far as I know, Qusahwira was still under construction during the time period the PG map is representing. Same can be said for the air base in Zayeed Military City. 1 REAPER 51 | Tholozor VFA-136 (c.2007): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3305981/ Arleigh Burke Destroyer Pack (2020): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3313752/
Minsky Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Additionally, "opening" Qusahwira would require reworking the whole area which is currently a barren wasteland (no mesh, no GIS data, no proper textures). Probably too much of an investment for such a remote location on a map that has been considered complete for years. (But for the record, I'm two thumbs up for the idea.) 1 Dima | My DCS uploads
