Lucas_From_Hell Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) DCS F-18 is going to be a C as you mentioned. "E" model will be tricky due to the lack of declassified information. I wouldn't bet on it anytime soon :( I don't think we'll see the DCS 18 until *maybe* December to line up with the holidays. I'm betting the Hornet won't be here until mid-2014. Bezcl's MiG-21 seems to be going fairly well though, and it seems IRIS Simulations has got something going as they were searching for beta testers not long ago (see here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=105361). Coretex Designs is working on a DCS-level (AFAIK) Super Hornet, seems to be going well (http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=90154) :) Edited May 14, 2013 by Lucas_From_Hell

Mistermann Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 So I am a little confused ... is ED creating the F-18C? I thought this was a Cortex Design project. Sounds like they are doing the E and possibly ED doing the C? Is that correct?

Kougar Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 F16/F22 I would love to see in DCS world the F16 and the F22. :thumbup:
skouras Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 agree for the F-16 as a member and a flyer on falcon community for years as for the F-22 forget it most of the systems are classified if not all maybe in 10 years;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]W10(64bit)Asus Rog Strix Z370-F - i7 8700K - Dark Rock Pro 4 - 16 giga ram Corsair vengeance 3000 - MSI RTX 2070 Super - Asus Rog Phobeus soundcard - Z906 Surround speaker - Track ir5 - HOTAS Warthog
ericoh Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Theres not enought known about the F-22's systems to make it anyhow close to DCS quality standards. That why there wont be an offical F-22. I agree with the F-16 tho im not sure how confident the systems of the F-16's are nowadays. But the F-16 is a very nice multi-role fastmover, would love to see it too!
joey45 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 Think 10 years is a bit too unrealistic.. More like 20 years. ...... And the rest.

SUBS17 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 F22 will rock in DCS World, I wish someone would make an F-16 addon for DCS World.:pilotfly: [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
Cake Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) F22 will rock in DCS World, I wish someone would make an F-16 addon for DCS World.:pilotfly: The F22 rocks in the real world, and while it would be fun to learn the systems, it certainly would be a strange fit in DCS world. How do you fit in a fighter that can probably solo kill 6 or more Su27s simultaneously and would be virtually invincible when it hunts in packs? If the F22 were available, it would basically suck flying anything else in terms of fighters in multiplayer.. Edited May 19, 2013 by Cake Clarification 6700K@4.6 48Gb - 1080Ti Hybrid - Warthog - RIFT
howie87 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 As said before: F-22 - No, classified. F-16 - Hell to the yeah.
Krebs20 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 I would like to see the F22 modeled as AI in dcs. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Didnt you get the news that newer radar systems detect the so called "stealth" aircraft easily? :music_whistling: Article on Pupular Mechanics: "Asked if the new seekers could track and destroy an F-35, Shalaev grins and says, "Well, we're going to try."" :D Edited May 20, 2013 by ericoh
GGTharos Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Maybe he didn't read the papers where air forces are actually quite worried about their missiles being almost completely ineffective against F-22's. After all, those seekers don't use magic - if you've got 1/8th the range on a fighter radar, you've got about 1/8th on the seeker as well, and that's a rather bad situation.

QGEMjzkYIekAjwKyo92S Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Add More Modern US Fighters The game needs more current us fighters. The F18, f22, and F35 are the current us fighters. The f15 is being phased out. So lets add more US fighters to today.:pilotfly: 1
Robert1983NL Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 Original nickname. DCS is all about realism. There's no way you'd get the F22 or F35 anywhere NEAR realistic.
QGEMjzkYIekAjwKyo92S Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 There are already more Russian than US fighters or NATO in the game. Add more US modern fighters.
Lucas_From_Hell Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 (edited) The F-15 is still active, and is receiving upgrades. The Eagle and Strike Eagle fleet is expected to fly until 2025, that's a pretty long time. Also, the F-15E is probably staying around beyond that mark. You did forget the F-16 (800+ of them :D) on your list of US fighters. To get an idea, we're already missing some A-10C features because they're classified, and that's an upgraded 1970s aircraft. When it comes to modern fighter, it gets even harder. Coretex Designs (who are making an F/A-18E) had to choose the APG-73 over the APG-79 because of the lack of public information on the latter. I can't even think how would they be able to model an F-22 and especially an F-35, since it hasn't even been introduced properly. My vote went to the F-16 because it is at this point the USAF's (and many NATO air forces') 'go-to' true multirole fighter, much like the F/A-18 is the Navy's. A second reason is that although the thread says "Western", it should actually read American. It's much of a shame to ignore all the European legendary designs. Fortunately third party developers are doing a very good job on that, although so far I've only seen British aircraft. PS: JAS-39 anyone? :D Edited May 25, 2013 by Lucas_From_Hell 1

JetlinerX Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) Chances of these two modules? Hey all! First off, this is based on Scarecrow's topic (<-- thread was moved, so scratch that.), I wanted to ask if anyone has some inside info, or maybe knows ED and their thought process to answer these two questions? What do you think the chances are of seeing: DCS: F-16? and DCS: UH60? Edited May 26, 2013 by JetlinerX Take a look at our in-depth DCS A10C tutorials If you want to participate in these tutorial sessions, please send me a PM and I can get you setup! :) TUTORIALS TO RETURN "VERY SOON"
