Exorcet Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Yeah, but the Apache wasn't halfway done before the module was started. I don't get why people hate the Mustang. Besides my inability to aim at all, I love everything about the module.

Frogisis Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Yeah, the Mustang is super fun - I think it'll come into its own once it has more unique things to do or a WWII patina can be put over the setting. What I really want is a DCS-level fighter, so the F-15E, Super Hornet, or F-16 all sound great to me. The F-18 Classic would be awesome, too, of course, but it's harder to get as excited about it when you know there's a better version out there. Edit: Would seriously be down for co-op in an Apache or a Hind, too, but I think I'll stick to single-seat jets; I find single player kind of meditative and relaxing, like the cockpit is my own little cocoon.

Maddog1 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 But we've already got an Russian helicopter. So instead of a flyable Hind, an American Apache (or allright, a Super Cobra) would balance a bit more don't you think. Anyway don't let it be some old plane or helicopter anymore, it's 2013 not 1980. An modern American Fighter OR helicopter would be a good idea, i totally agree.

sobek Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I remember Wags talking about ac-130 sim they did for training, is there possibility to see this plane in DCS world as flyable? IIRC they did only the gunner position. AFAIK back when they got the contract, they said that there was no chance of it going public. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa!

uksub Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Saying it again: Apache Longbow First there came a Russian helicopter (Black Shark), then the A-10, then the old (who ever wanted that plane???) Mustang, and now it's time for an American counterpart, the Apache Longbow. Serious developers, everybody knows this machine, and a sh*tload of fans would buy that module, a hell lot more than that Mustang would sell, I can bet you that. From what I understand, they cant model the Longbow as its radar is still highly classified and they wont model systems that they cant replicate to a very high degree of fidelity (admirable, but frustrating) To be honest, the lack of any real info at all regarding the next offical aircraft is getting a bit old to be honest, but ho hum it is what it is and all that.

RIFLE_JTAC_TRAINING Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 It would be great. Even if we didnt have a DCS AC-130, to incorporate one and do integrated attacks from the wheel with A-10 while AC-130 marks tgt, Dual target attacks others.

Surely they've taken some creative licence in making the systems in the KA50 - they should be able to do the same for the Longbow. Who are we to know the difference to the real thing? Its a sim after all, not a type rating. An Apache is sorely needed to offset the KA50.

Its a sim after all, not a type rating. I believe ED had some contacts at Kamov to help them out with information on the Ka-50 - probably not to the extend of handing over "the blueprints", but nevertheless enough to simulate the majority of systems accurately. I think it may be possible to do an earlier AH-64A to similar standard with the documentation available, but I doubt that would be the case for the Longbow. An Apache is sorely needed to offset the KA50. I don't see how an Apache could be "sorely needed to offset the Ka-50" - it may be desirable for the "rotorheads" to be able to fly a US equivalent, but given their RL mission objectives, such platforms are not likely to confront eachother directly on the battlefield anyway.
