  1. 1. Next DCS (US) Fixed Wing Aircraft Wish List



Recommended Posts

Maybe it's just me, but the idea of being fired off the end of an aircraft carrier, knowing that if you haven't planned your route and fuel correctly you might not get back, flying towards a hostile coastline doing whatever you can to avoid the SAMs and CAPs, dropping a couple of GBUs on your target and then doing it all all again to get home sounds so good it's giving me a semi.

 

But hey, maybe it's just me.

We aren't alone, you and I... and you.

 

Can we have this?

If F/A-18C is the next aircraft, they (ED) can keep it to themselves, cause I'm sure as hell not gonna buy it. It's either F/A-18E, F-16* or F-35*, or no money from me.

I feel sorry for you, I really do. Life must really suck when you're not happy with anything unless it is exactly what you want most.

Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

You have to realize that ED is the only developer on the horizon that is willing to dive into this niche market head first. I feel privileged to enjoy DCS "Whatever"; even if it was DCS crop buster I would still buy it because I want the developer to continue to churn out modules. Sometimes you have to look at the bigger picture.

It is for sure...err I hope so :music_whistling: Seriously it should be a joke...unless maybe TFC gets some customer interested in having a training simulator for this plane....:smartass:

 

On the other hand, the only hint I could find until now is from TBS and they are saying on their website F-16 and F/A-18 projects are under development, so my bet is one of these !

If this is not a joke, I'll be really, REALLY wtf'ed. I don't think ANYone would've thought about this.

But there ARE three pro's:

-first, if it's real, I'm sure it won't take THAT long, because it's a kinda simpel aircraft,

-second, if it's real - the -U is a tandem aircraft, so we'll encounter the way ED is building tandem piloting and they'll get used to that,

-and third, we've all read the art of war and know about good deception, don't we? ;-)

 

It's not unpropable 'cause a acquisition program for the 802U is in progress and the Aircraft is realtivly new.

I only fear this would be kinda be a long shot 'cause the 802U was concepted in the late '10s and so all the equipment available in DCS must be brought up to that level to simulate an realistic enviroment...

There's no "Overkill". There's only "open fire!" and "time to reload".

First please keep in mind that it still an assumption so no need to conclude anything too soon. But between Wag's avatar and this material, I would choose the second.

 

Reminder for those who don't know who TFC and TBS are :

 

""The Battle Simulator"(TBS) creates a synthetic environment of elements of modern land, sea and air warfare. It is based on The Fighter Collection Simulation Engine (TFCSE), developed for The Fighter Collection (TFC) by its associate company, Eagle Dynamics, and currently integrated into a commercial "Serious Games" simulation product."

 

They are mentioning F-16 and F/A-18 as under development projects for their FACSE (Forward Air Controllers Simulation Engine) :

 

"Currently nine flyable aircraft (A-10A, F-15C, Su-27, MiG-29, MiG-29, Su-25, Su-25T, Su-33, Ka-50) with more under development (F-16, F/A-18 )."

 

Source Link : http://www.thebattlesim.com/index.php?end_pos=9&scr=list⟨=en (under section "pilot view)

 

According to this, the LEAST that can be said is that TFC/ED team would have already started working/thinking about it...when, where and how are still with question marks...

Too nice to be true ;) I, for one, would be completely satisfied with such aircraft :)

 

It could be also a diversion: imagine an aircraft that is completely different from this one, in every aspect, and we'll have the answer, what really is in the workshop ;) A supersonic jet, single seat, carrier capable.

Modded or not, it is still FSX, a broken game that is poorly optimized with awful controls.

 

Anyway, the Hornet could be a fun challenge, considering I have never ran out of fuel before over a combat zone :joystick:

US. Carrier ops one day...? :music_whistling:

 

 

F/A-18E
