Belsimtek F-4E Phantom II

But yeah, the short nosed F-4s are my fav F-4 types. No gun sucks, but it certainly looks cooler. Plus, works well with the MiG-21 and planned MiG-19.

Intruders?

Well, the F16 is in active service with a lot of countries. It’s bound to have a great sales potential in DCS World. Day 1 purchase for me. Of course, every module pretty much falls into that category for me (except the Christen Eagle).

Or the Yak 52 for that matter… I can’t wait for the '16. It’s nimble and crazy fast and multiple. I want a Phantom for the historical value. But in a DF, give me the Falcon.
Who wants a Yak 52 in DCS other than someone who owns one? I don’t get that

Ah well so much for that

It translates to postponed indefinitely but whether that has a different meaning in Russia? If not I can wipe DCS off the hard drive and save some space LOL

DCS: Fighter Ops confirmed?

More proof that the F-16 ruins everything.

I sincerely doubt it means it’s not coming. With the work that’s been completed thus far, I don’t see them just throwing all that away.

I don’t think anyone is insinuating it’s been cancelled. I’m more tongue in cheek griping that the time it will take to actually see it has likely doubled, if not tripled.

all for a jet that doesn’t offer any substantially better or new capability over the Hornet, but hey, fan service!

Honestly I’d take a Falcon over the Hornet any day of the week. The Hornet is operated by probably 10 or less nations? The Falcon by 25 or 30 different countries? Yes the Hornet provides carrier ops, which I understand is huge for a lot of people, but not me. The Falcon in DCS would be the first ā€œmodernā€ recreation of it in detail, BMS has been building on a legacy code base for a long time now.

Now whether getting the whole Falcon crowd into DCS is a good or bad thing for the community, that’s up in the air. The massive influx of cash however, would certainly be good for ED and it’s plans for DCS.

Ha exactly - but you have to think of the common good - at least many will be able to do their 1 v 1 gunzo dogfights with 99.9% never knowing how to actually use it in one.

Sorry - already allocated to the Moscow red light district.:blonde_woman::vampire::frowning_woman:

Alright. Are we gonna have to force a mod clean up this thread?

HTS is one thing i’d be really curious about.

You could move it into the F-14 thread. That’s generally been our dumping ground for OT.
