Su-27 and Fw-190 Update

[Raven68]

Skates didn't you have a hand in the F-86F? Or am I thinking of another?

[GGTharos]

The Flanker's AFM will be very detailed. It's flight augmentation system will probably be modeled as well as the F-15's.

 

Great!

 

Su-27 AFM will be detailed as the F-15C? FBW will be modeled?

i'm asking because, on the F-15C AFM\EAM\ARI|FAC we got lot of info and a video, and with the Su-27 not much..

 

Thx

[tonialkon]

Awesome updates . Great ED Team !!

F-100 and a few others

[Raven68]

F-100 and a few others

 

:doh: Thanks for clearing that up.

[Esac_mirmidon]

And the proportional control? Or it´s too much to ask?

 

[Neon67]

very nice update and communication from wags :)

I hope they will start reworking on the ground unit aswell after edge and those afms before going on F18C

ED/EDPartner: FW-190

3rd Party: Mi-21Bis

Unknown: L-29 (Pretty Sure he Meant L-39?)

ED Partner: UH-1H

ED Partner: MI-8

As Well as Others

 

Yes, I have watched that one ad nauseam, but in the first KS-video Igor Tishin talked about "having developed 8 modules (whatever that may include from your list, or cancelled 3rd party projects so far) and an additional 20 scheduled for release within 18 months" (from 6:10 on). There is a slight discrepancy with regard to the number of modules here and this kind of background info about the MiG-29 pit plus your list still leave some room for speculation, wouldn´t you agree? Additionally, the overview is from January whereas the KS video is from September...

I'm glad ED is listening about the complaints about the lack of updates....

Keep up the good work. An update once in a while won't cause any delays on the schedule...

BTW, i can't wait for these next 3 modules (FW-190, F-15 and S-U27)

DCS world just got better!

[blackbelter]

Excellent news! Thanks ED!

[Witchking]

Can't wait for flanker and eagle. :D

I want ED to take as much time as it takes to get the F-15 and Su-27 AFMs correct, but having expected the F-15 in November and now not having any clue as to when it will originally done is killing me. Not to mention the delays on the MiG-21bis that seemed like it was going to be done last year, then by Christmas, now March. Fortunately, I have a great time flying the UH-1H and P-51D thanks to their awesome flight models and even enjoy some F-15C despite the simple flight model.

That's what I wanted to hear :) The announcement of the F-15C's AFM has mentioned stunning low speed maneuvrability so we are kind of expecting even more capabilities at those regimes for the Flanker as aside from unscripted 'Cobra' and 'Hammerhead' nothing has been added on the heads up.

 

I 'fee'l that we are slowly moving towards a fully DCS modernization for almost all FC aircrafts. (6DOF-->3Dmodel---->AFM---->clickable cockpit..) :thumbup:

[KeyCat]

Great news! Looking forward to get back in the saddle when the new Su-27 is ready for takeoff...

Sorry, it's my fault: HAMMERHEAD must be read as TAIL SLIDE. :)

ED always updates us when they have something to update us about. So this isnt a matter of public pressure, more likely they had a good healthy meeting on Monday :)

[Rotorhead]

Woohoo! Awesome Flanker finally gets some deserved love! :yay:

 

Such an important update for me and I almost missed it! Going back to non-clickable cockpit will be step backwards for me, but no matter - just can't wait to kick in the afterburners and enjoy some of its low-speed-high-AOA-awesomeness!

 

Man, I feel like a kid two weeks before Christmas... oh, wait... :D

[NineLine]

Just looks like another manoeuvre that will get me blowed up ;)

Having in mind that russian Christmass is not 24th December, but 7th January I will raise the question: will we have that important update untill Christmass ? :))

 

Kidding ... I took my expectations 'till end of March anyway :)

Doesn't matter for me. My ass will still get shot no matter what! :lol:

[blackbelter]

Any news on this front? :music_whistling:

[Krupi]

Wouldn't it be rather nice to do more than just shoot Fw 190's :pilotfly:

[ExGreyFox]

Is the new DCS: Su-27 going to be the same bird that we have at the moment but just with an advanced flight model or will it be the Su-27SM with the 3 MFD displays + advanced flight model? http://www.natenow.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Sukhoi-SU-27-Front-Cockpit.jpg

 

What a beauty of a cockpit that would be if it is indeed the SM.

Yes.
