Hi, The MIG-21bis was delivered to Vietnam from 1979 on. http://www.mig-21.de/english/inservice.htm#vietnam

 

Aye, but how difficult could it be to downgrade a bit to get the PF?

 

DCS Vietnam

DCS Korea

DCS Middle East MiGs and Mirage III's

 

That would be something..

 

Just did a google map comparison, the stock Black Sea map size for DCS is about big enough to cover half of Korea and most of the AOR for the Gulf War. Anybody know how big a map EDGE can handle? A DCS: Southeast Asia map would be awesome.

 

EDIT: WOAH Severe necropost, didn't even realize.

Asuming it's AFM, Yes I'd love it. Much because learning fighting from that era, would give great experience and respect for the pilots back then, than modern era fighters.

1. DCS Vietnam War

2. DCS Operation Desert Storm War (ODS)

3. DCS Israeli Wars

4. DCS Korea War

5. DCS Balkans War

6. DCS Afghanistan War

7. DCS GUAM or Pacific Wars

8. DCS Taiwan War

9. DCS Falklands War

10. DCS Libya War

 

Just simply some nice scenery and elevations would be enjoyable with realistic battle-space scenes. With EDGE GEN 4 GFX and F-18 & F-16 +MiGs and Mirages, whoaa-yeah what a treat.

 

You can also add to the list many theoretical wars as well as historical.

 

There really needs to be either a 3rd Party Theater Group or maybe ED-DCS release like a SDK for public Theater and campaign building.

 

Reference:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development_kit ............. imagine yeah!:smilewink::thumbup:

 

Well we dream!:music_whistling:

 

Cheers

I said yes bus only after modern aircraft... But on second thoughts, we will have way more vietnam era aircraft in DCS in the next couple of years than modern jets so I'm actually all for it. A Vietnam map would be the most important thing for me though.

Quite possibly very true, though I wouldn't put the carriage before the horse at this point.

 

At any rate, yeah. If the OV-10 was made (which I wish folks would make as a stop-gap while waiting on ED), I too would love to participate in a Vietnam environment.

I would love a dcs vietnam that's for sure. I would like to see a dcs Mirage 2000C and Rafale before though.

The air war in Vietnam was a mess. Restricted zones, restrictions on targets. Civilians back in Washington choosing the targets and tactics. Bombing halts.The biggest threat at the time were the SAMS. To counter the SAM threat pilots were told to fly lower, which just put them in range of the guns and the North Vietnamese gunners were very disciplined. They just filled a sector of sky, that they knew the planes were going to fly through, with flack. A fascinating and bewildering war on many levels. I'm all for it in DCS

Good Grief

Hello gents,

 

Well even though I would love to have a DCS Vietnam War Theater Campaign scenario we need historical air craft beginning with a nice F-4G Phantom II being the more advanced variant for multi-purpose Theaters ie. 1980's Iraq War..... etc......

So with good planning DCS can have really good realistic Theater War and Campaigns on $$$$ SALE $$$$$.

 

In response to first post I will also say its not to far fetched if 3rd Party Game Developers join the ranks and crack onto development of these projects being posted in Forum.

 

There are many 3rd Party Game Developer avenues to pull from if ED-DCS wishes like ................

- Side Note:- wouldn't it be better to have a Global World MAP like in FSX ...............

 

Well its been many years in want, so it really is time to make headway on this stuff.

 

Cheers,

The F-4E in the photo is an ARN-101 bird modified after the war. The F-4G Advanced Wild Weasel V did not show up until after the war as well. The Navy F-4G's, 12 modified aircraft with automatic carrier landing equipment, were modified in 1963 and after being de-modified in 1967 the designation was dropped by the Navy. I'd love to have both of the Air Force birds in DCS for a mid 80's scenario to work together in hunter killer teams. As for Phantoms in Vietnam, an early F-4E would be a great start but I'd also be happy with an F-4D or F-4J as well.

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!

I'd definitely buy it as long as the Phantom was there (B/C/D/J models preferably), ...make the GIB AI...with Yankee and Dixie station carriers....oh and the Skyhawk of course...not to mention the Skyraider....and the........well, you get the idea.

Vietnam with op-linebacker style campaigns would be the quintessential DCS map for me.

 

Then we must have played controlled SA-2 sites!

Wow, a nearly 2 year old wishthread. We are still waiting even longer for ED to release this new graphics engine they announce every year again and again.

 

But go ahead posting them details about carriers. They probably aren't aware of these.
