Next DCS (US) Fixed Wing Aircraft Wish List

[omarkabbani557]

Don't take me wrong but aren't you/we enough of su-25's?

actually no :smartass:

the su 25t is an amazing aircraft with amazing A/G capabilities and id love to see it moved to DCS.

its another matter if they can/cant get top secret info and stuff, im just hoping that they can put the Su 25t in DCS:)

But it was also a nightmare to fly IMO and its still there with AFM in FC if you want to fly it :P I would much rather have something else.

I'm sure it's on here some place, but why do a sim on an aircraft that has been done several times, like the Apache. Why not something more multipurpose that seems well liked but has only been used once really, Eurofighter Typhoon. Sure there was the Eurofighter series back in the day, but it's the only one. A hardcore DCS title with this aircraft would be awesome, IMHO.

[Eddie]

Awesome yes, never going to happen though. At least not for quite a few years.

[Ninefingers]

I suppose that the most logical thing would be to have some air superiority fighter, but my most wished dream would be a carrier ops mod

Well from my point of view the AH-64 has never ben dun at the DCS level of detail and that is what I realy want(A sim not a game).

F-18 superhornet or the F/A2 harrier would be good as the next DCS module. Both fit the communities multi-role fighter request.

[omarkabbani557]

i just got an idea!

Su 24 would be cool :)

2 seater aircraft=awesome multiplayer :thumbup:

+ its a great A/G aircraft (ive been doin some reading)

the FA-18 superhornet >>> never gonna happen gue to classified avionics

the Sea Harrier FA2 >>>>> never gonna happen.......

Well, there are the earlier models of those aircraft.... If not, maybe the F-15E or SU-24. But even then these aircraft are 2-seaters. I am stumped:noexpression:

[Ninefingers]

Still thinking about this, the F16 is a very good option... many people have already buit home pits, Nellis is the home base of ThunderBirds, is not a bad plane to do aerobatics, is that multirole fighter we need to support our A-10's, a lot of research has already done for simulate the avionics on sim's and most of us have experience on it...

And as the sim must equalize west and east forces SU27, 25 and Apache would be the next....

sorry, just dreaming.... :music_whistling:

Would love a plane like that. But OMG how many buttons does that thing need? I really like the routing of that red cable thing. :thumbup:

Too many buttons to cram into my tiny head.

[Saeid]

TOMCAT with pilot and rio with multiplayer would be the best thing in all of the simulation history :D

[joey45]

Most of them buttons you wont even touch.... maybe once or twice but not all the time.

Best thing for Iranian pilots, anyway. :music_whistling:

 

Multiplayer's only a small part of the potential market though, and making a bearable AI RIO would be hard. Totally awesome if they could pull it off though.

[power5]

Well, in an F14, the RIO is simply a navigator. Calling out threats and what not. At least that is what it seems from the documentary I watched in the 80s called Top Gun. So, in that instance the pilot does everything except the nav stuff. So, an AI in an F14, or any other plane with similar RIO requirements should be just fine. Any A/C that has the RIO using the weapons would be the a/c that I doubt we ever see. Who would want to be the RIO in MP of a F14. "Um, hey pilot, we got a bogey." "Okay, got him, now go back to sleep."

[GGTharos]

Nope ... definitely not all the RIO does.

 

There is a reason why he is called the Radar Intercept Officer.

[power5]

In that documentary he also did a lot of bitching. I think they are captains as well because he was captain obvious much of the time too. :) Besides these two other duties, what else does a backseat do? I would like to know. And is it something AI could do well enough?

[GGTharos]

The RIO has control of the intercept, and thus the aircraft, until BFM happens; even though the pilot is physically flying the plane, the RIO controls the intercept, weapon selection, engagement, etc.

[power5]

Not sure what control of intercept means. Or what BFM is. Maverick picked the guns or missile on the flight stick though.

[GGTharos]

RIO tells the pilot which weapon to pick until the merge.

[evilnate]

Oh I have another suggestion.. This is very minuscule as far as importance but would be pretty sweet to see in a flight sim.

I would like to see AI aircraft marshalling! It would take a little animation work with the human AI, but I think it would be awesome.

[Rambler91]

AI aircraft marshalling

 

Ok, now you got me there... :huh:

 

What is a/c marshalling???

[Callsign.Vega]

Single-seat multi-role fighter would make a great next DCS release. I'd love to fly any of these: F-16 block 60, F/A-18E, Dassault Rafale-C, Mig-29/35, Su-27/35, JAS 39 Gripen and the Eurofighter Typhoon.
