Hueyman Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Sure there is a chance. The future is a very long time. +1 man, that sentence is probably the more plausible and realistic one I heard during this day ! Future is theorically the time that happens between right now and + infinite, so yes you are so true, there are so many chances we can see a Sea Hawk in the future, as well as a flying chicken, a Cessna 152 or a batmobile in DCS, who knows where and when this fabulous sim will end :megalol: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] CPL(A)IR ME/SEP/MEP/SET - CPL(H)
Fifi Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 I see AH-64D Longbow has the most votes...to me it's an other Black Shark kind of, nothing new. I voted "other", cause my helicopter wish isn't listed here (and sadly will never be). It's a French one very well known, multi-tasks in the army, police, life guard etc...still used but not build anymore. Very agile and probably great fun to fly, without all that technology we can see aboard Black Sharks and other Apaches. Though it can carry guided missiles anti-tanks. I name it: Aerospatiale SA342M Gazelle ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTHL15qdWPg [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
mr_mojo97 Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Yeah, I'm also in favour of the Gazelle. Partially because my old boss had one. Every now and then he'd fly over to Glasgow from Edinburgh and land it in the car park! Never gave me a shot in it mind you, but he'd take all the girls for a ride. Sleeze ball! Anyways, yeah this is a cool chopper, suppose it's on par with the Hughes 500E which I'd also like to see MSI M5 z270 | Intel i5 7600k (OC) 4.8GHz | MSI GTX1080ti Gaming X 11Gb | 500gb Samsung 970 Evo NVME M.2 (DCS World) | 500gb Samsung 850 Evo SSD (OS and Apps) | 32Gb 2400MHz DDR4 - Crucial Ballistix | Be Quiet Silent Loop 240mm | NZXT H440 case | Thrustmaster Warthog - 47608 with Virpil Mongoose joystick base | MFG Crosswinds - 1241 | Westland Lynx collective with Bodnar X board | Pilot's seat from ZH832 Merlin | JetSeat | Oculus Rift S | Windows 10 | VA |
Scrim Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Two different Apaches, but no Kiowa? IMHO, there'd be no point in an AH-64D, just like there wouldn't be with planes like the F22 and F35. With so much of their abilities and characteristics classified, there's no way we'd end up with accurate DCS versions of them.
GunfighterSIX Posted October 28, 2013 Posted October 28, 2013 The last thing we need is an SH-60. This game is about fighting wars, so if we have to put a 60 in then let it at least be a uh-60. Being a blackhawk pilot might be influencing my opinion though. Once we get some more war fighting equipment in then we can bring in the Navy "civilian" helicopters :D HHC, 229th AHB, 1st Cav Div http://1stcavdiv.conceptbb.com/
Rammit Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 DCS H-60 series? Just wondering if anyone was interested in a DCS H-60 series helicopter as I am? "If the MWS didn't see it, it didn't happen"
AlphaOneSix Posted November 3, 2013 Posted November 3, 2013 That would be pleasing, especially if it's a Mike model.
Dudikoff Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Well MH-60R carries Hellfires... But it's also very new and doesn't do CSAR so I propose HH-60H then (carries Hellfire for ASuW, USN special forces, does S&R; doesn't do ASW missions which is a moot point in DCS).

Being a blackhawk pilot might be influencing my opinion though. Once we get some more war fighting equipment in then we can bring in the Navy "civilian" helicopters :D I'd rather have a MH-60S over a UH-60A/L/M. The Sierra is equipped with a FLIR/Laser Designator and is armed with AGM-114, Hydra-70 FFAR's and GAU-19 on the ESSS. Additionally it has the GAU-17, GAU-21 and M-240 door mounted weapons as well. Its missions include Special Forces Infil/exfil, CSAR, SAR, Vertical Replenishment, Sea Control, Mine Warfare and of course the general trash hauling. The Sierra is a true Swiss army knife of a helicopter. The MH-60R is more of a dedicated ASW, ASuW platform but it is also armed with AGM-114's as well as AGM-119's and Mk-46 and Mk-50 torpedo's. The Romeo could do the pinpoint attack mission in a pinch. I'd rather have the Sierra before the Alpha, Lima, or Mike. Just because they are not painted green doesn't mean they are not combat aircraft. It is definitely not a "civilian" helo. Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills. If you ever find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! "If at first you don't succeed, Carrier Landings are not for you!"
Vampyre Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 You can paint it purple with yellow polka dots, don't make no nevermind at night :D But during the day you just look fruity.

shagrat Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 In that case, any Apache would be a great game! Yeah! I voted for the Apache AH-64A. Unfortunately, I learned a bit about the HOTAS Controls... Let's say, veeery challenging! Just the cyclic and collective sticks are hellish overloaded with buttons. Not even thinking of the weapons operators "gamepad" controls, which alone mount more buttons and hats than the current HOTAS Warthog. Look at the collective of the AH-64D in this post! And here a good rendition of the Longbows cockpit including controls... Honestly, I cannot imagine to control this with mouse-clicks and just "a normal" HOTAS. Even the Thrustmaster Cougar MFDs have 20 buttons per MFD plus the 4 Switch buttons, only. Apache MFDs have 6 OSB per side = 24 buttons plus rotaries. With current classified systems, the Apache AH-64A is the most likely we may get. Even that has more controls you normaly can emulate with a HOTAS. It will require a lot of modifier keys or at least an additional XBox controller to manage "some" of it. :music_whistling: Shagrat - Flying Sims since 1984 - Win 10 | i5 10600K@4.1GHz | 64GB | GeForce RTX 3090 - Asus VG34VQL1B | TrackIR5 | Simshaker & Jetseat | VPForce Rhino Base & VIRPIL T50 CM2 Stick on 200mm curved extension | VIRPIL T50 CM2 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Plus/Apache64 Grip | MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals | WW Top Gun MIP | a hand made AHCP | 2x Elgato StreamDeck (Buttons galore)

With so much of their abilities and characteristics classified, there's no way we'd end up with accurate DCS versions of them. Kiowa would be nice esspecially in recon or stealth missions. But A 129 is also efficient factor. There is too much Ah-64 sims. I think different models of chopper would be great...
Revan Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 MI-24 Hind would be AWESOME! it is a mix of the KA-50 and the MI-8 DCS: F-4E really needs to be a thing!!!!!! Aircraft: A-10C, Ka-50, UH-1H, MiG-21, F-15C, Su-27, MiG-29, A-10A, Su-25, Su-25T, TF-51
Oggii80 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 There are Apache games maybe, but I wouldn't really call most of them Sims. I'd love to see DCS do a full-on add for this, especially since it's so heavily used in the era that this game covers.
Calico Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I'd very much like to see the CH-47 Chinook Developed!
WRAITH Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 DCS AH-64D I voted for this beast.................... Cheers, :beer:
AlphaOneSix Posted December 12, 2013 Posted December 12, 2013 I voted for this beast.................... That video is not an Apache.
