Well I’m sure that’s gotta be up there as one of the most common 1v1 DACT training scenarios, simply on the number of airframes built… sure we’re using real simulated weapons instead of simulated simulated weapons - but still! 
Yeah, this is a mistake and I hope ED don’t do this.
Greg’s Airplanes and Automobiles actually did this. Can’t remember if it was the Jug or Dora but he was trolling jet jocks by shooting them down in a piston engined prop haha.
It did happen in Korea, albeit against first gen jets. It happened in WWII as well, no Me262s were shot down by Allied jets!
It happened in Fight Club as well. Very humbling experience. My lower back stil aches when I think back of it.
On the other hand when I was flying the Mudhen on Marianas I had your MiG-21 on radar when you were 70 nautical miles out hugging the waves, had a solid TWS track around 35-37 nautical miles and I send the first amraam around 30 miles flying at around 40000ft doing Mach 1.3(ish). With the sensor fusion of the F-35 that’s going to be even more bonkers I imagine, especially when operating as more than a single ship.
Last time I checked, you couldn’t see through the floor of your F-16.
You forget where @Harry_Bumcrack lives. Everything is upside down there. So the floor is actually the canopy…
Taking candy from baby seals. And don’t deny that sounds like a good time 
Seen the way he maintains his machinery? Tactical rust holes baby!
That was my finest hour. I should of got a medal for that
Ill be trolling for a fight tonight LOL

A new -free- SU-25 is incoming
https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/newsletters/f4ff3a7a71a8c1aabe2b9031757f16a9/
Interesting. I wonder how much they improve, vice just simply offering the current FC Su-25 as a free module.
I love flying the Frogfoot, so any improvement (especially free) is welcome, but here’s another FC bird I’d love to see in full fidelity some day!
Clicky -25 would be…
My feeling is this will be a revamp of the 25A in FC with a better 3D model and animations and such, but still FC-level, then just made free.
FC1 for LOMAC had the Su-25T but you had to pay for it. FC2 brought the LOMAC plane set to DCS, and then DCS World made the 25T separate of FC3 and free.
FC 2024 includes the Su-25 along with 3 new planes, but I guess they will strip it out of the list and just make it free, too.
If ANYONE purchased the standalone Su-25 for DCS without having all of FC3/24 (and I can’t imagine more than maybe 10 people!), they will be a bit disappointed they could have waited, but unless it was very recently, they at least got to enjoy it earlier.
Really, though, to make the 25 paid while the superior 25T was free never really made sense.
I’m expecting it to be exactly as much improvement as the ALL NEW F-5, but for an honest price…
So, I’m all for it.
I would love a clickable 25T. Would be great! Blue has the A10C Red needs a Su-25T. Just like Red is getting a MIG-29 and Blue is getting a F-15C.
However the line below means it will be an updated version of the FC 25T.
Maybe they’ll add some FC+ features to the 25’s autopilot and nav system, similar to what they did for the 29.
Sorely needed visual update for the Grach. I used to love that thing on days when I’m too tired for clicky-pits. Making it free is also a good move that I think will bring in more players. The Su-25T and TF-51 haven’t been the best starter modules for people on the fence about an $80 module.
I think the Su-25T is almost too complex for not having a clicky cockpit, but the standard -25 is just right. It’d be good for it to get a nice update
