AlphaOneSix Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Speaking of which, we talked to Darknight on the radio tonight, that callsign should be familiar to most DCS fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Isn't that the JTAC? I forget, haven't 'spoken' to JTAC in a while ...

AlphaOneSix Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yeah, JTAC. I'm not sure how they choose the callsigns, since every time I've talked to a JTAC over here, it's always been Darknight XX, but maybe it's just because we always have the same customers.

WRAITH Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) DCS AH-64D Apache One of the revolutionary features at the introduction of the Apache was its helmet mounted display, the Integrated Helmet and Display Sighting System (IHADSS); among other abilities the pilot or gunner can slave the helicopter's 30 mm automatic M230 Chain Gun to his helmet, making the gun track head movements to point at where he looks. The M230E1 can be alternatively fixed to a locked forward firing position, or controlled via the Target Acquisition and Designation System (TADS).The AH-64's standard of performance for aerial gunnery is to achieve at least 1 hit for every 30 shots fired at a wheeled vehicle at a range of 800–1,200 m (870–1,300 yd). If these systems can be modeled correctly with high defined clear picture detail it would be fun to have the helo firing hell fire missiles. It has a nice pit...............

Raven_Morpheus Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) Apache Longbow! Apache Longbow! Apache Longbow! Apache Longbow! Apart from the rather ancient games Apache Longbow 2, Apache AH-64 Air Assault, Enemy Engaged Apache vs Havoc (and Commanche vs Hokum with community mods/support) and Janes Apache Longbow 2 (if you can get it working) there is no decent game that could be called a "simulation" with an Apache AH-64 (I don't count FSX because it's not a combat-sim). I'd settle for a Hind or AH-1 Cobra (Vietnam era would be good, so not a Whiskey or Zulu, probably best as an Foxtrot or Golf) though. I'd also settle for a Jolly Green (Sikorsky S-61 (known in the USAF as a HH-3E)) or Super Jolly Green (M/HH-53 (Sea Stallion/Pavelow (and some other designations, including CH-53))) with a dynamic CSAR career/campaign set in 'Nam.

Belsimtek, a third party developer currently working on the UH-1H and the Mi-8MTV-2, has announced plans to develop modules for the F-86 and the AH-1G, so at least your wish in that regard should come true.

heloguy Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I think I voted for an H-60 somewhere about 30 pages ago...but, again, H-60. In fact, any flavor of H-60, as long as it doesn't have the old SH-60B tail wheel, and has a conventional Hawk tailwheel. The cockpit/systems would probably be the deciding factor on which model could be developed. It would probably be hard to do an MH-60 DAP, as the material required to do the cockpit and systems would be pretty hard to come by. A UH would be easy, but I'm sure people might get bored with the only options being assault and MEDEVAC. An M model might be hard to do as well, as the glass cockpit setup might be hard to get right in the sim, but would be pretty cool if it could be pulled off. i9 12900k @ 4.9ghz, 32gb RAM Nvidia RTX 3090 Windows 11 x64 Valve Index Brunner CLS-E w/RS F16GRH, Virpil TCS Rotor Plus Collective, BRD F1 Pedals, WH Throttle, FSSB R3 w/WH Grip, PointCTRL v1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRAITH Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) DCS AH-64D Apache - Riding the Dragon Well what you guys have to consider is the whole experience from the PC point of view. I think the AH-64D offer quite allot of fun for a DCS Combat Sim game. What that means is to take into account the systems that a DCS AH-64D Apache can offer and how that will translate with say your Tracker IR, VOIP and soon DCS EDGE Terrain environment. Weapon Systems Armament Guns: 1× 30 mm (1.18 in) M230 Chain Gun with 1,200 rounds as part of the Area Weapon Subsystem Hardpoints: Four pylon stations on the stub wings. Longbows also have a station on each wingtip for an AIM-92 Stinger twin missile pack.[62][253] Rockets: Hydra 70 70 mm, and CRV7 70 mm air-to-ground rockets Missiles: Typically AGM-114 Hellfire variants; AIM-92 Stinger may also be carried. Avionics Lockheed Martin / Northrop Grumman AN/APG-78 Longbow fire-control radar[254] (Note: can only be mounted on the AH-64D) See also Aviation portal Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center Desert Strike: Return to the Gulf United States Army Aviation and Missile Command There are many helos that would be kool but how well do they translate in the PC Sim I would still go for a DCS AH-64D Apache and it seems I'm not the only one. It looks good to especially on a carrier...... :smilewink: :thumbup: I really hope it will be developed for a DCS Series of Air Craft. Not to long ago I was watching this video Documentary I hope you guys like it.......... Cheers, :beer: Edited December 19, 2013 by WRAITH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaOneSix Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I feel very confident when I say that as long as the AH-64D documentation is restricted from the public domain, there will not be a DCS-level AH-64D. The AH-64A would be more likely, in my opinion. It's also what I voted for...how convenient. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
