Easy ;) Fly. Gunner is just watching at some pretty screen and moving a joystick :)

 

I was going to point that out as a plus. You can play gunner with an Xbox controller. :P

Ya know it occurs to me that we may be looking at this all wrong. We're talking about what we want to see...we need to look at what can DCS bring to market soonest that will:

 

A. Be popular

And more importantly

B. Can be done to DCS standards.

 

We keep talking about modern aircraft and weather or not developers would be granted access to classified data required to make a DCS quality aircraft. Personally, I'm pretty sure that's not gonna happen. With that in mind, what sims are readily available of aircraft from the same era as the A-10? You probably stand a better chance of gaining access to the information required to make a DCS aircraft. If you look at current 3rd party projects most are 2nd generation aircraft. Not sexy, but the data is available to make them accurate.

 

My vote is it'll be an F-16. First, the data is available. Has been since the falcon days...Second, it compliments the Hawg. Finally, everybody and their brother owned them...lots of different countries and paint schemes to make people happy AND lots of flexibility in red vs blue scenarios with F-16s on BOTH sides of the engagement...

 

I think it would be popular enough it'll keep people happy till the new model they have to do real work to build is complete.
