P51 Mission creation

[R. Joergensen]

Hi im new to the forums, bought dcs a-10c 1-2 weeks ago. Now the dcs p51 sim. Before that I have played aces high 2 mmo, f18 korea f18 iraqi freedom ect. Well they game is awesome, love the sound of that engine mixed with .50 cal mg's. I was just wondering what planes you other playes use when making your own missions in the editor? I bet you just as me would prefer flying against planes from the same time of age. Please include the names in the reply. Also a question for the devs, what german figther planes will be in the end product? Salutes from Denmark

Short answer to your 1st question is that the AI plane set used is really up to the person designing the mission. People make missions with everything from F-16s, Mig-29s, Su-27s, Su-25s etc. Eagle Dynamics hasn't even stated yet on if they are going to build a German WWII fighter: its way too soon (the P-51 is still a beta right now after all). On the other hand, third party developers for DCS are already looking into developing more WWII planes (not sure if they'll be flyable though). The next DCS fighter is supposed to be a modern U.S. fixed wing fighter (no word on which yet).
