I knew what it was and still took the bait. I’m that easy, as long as you tease me a bit with virtual planes.

Astley’s social media manager be like, “WTF, boss. We got another million views today!?”
Dafuq is the hold up? Eurofighter got cancelled?
I’m quite baffled too
PREMIERS IN 7 MINUTES. ITS ON YOUTUBE
New stuff I saw.
F-104?
C-17?
Infantry uniforms and behavior (grenade toss)
Helldiver?
Dynamic campaign screens looked pretty amazing.
Helldiver SB2C… Son of a B☆☆☆h 2nd Class was one of the worse US planes in WW2.
F-104 I look fwd to. Same w the Hun. Pacific assets… i believe it when i see it.
And i cant wait to see the Rafale in 2027 and beyond, 2028 and beyond, 2029…
a tree fell over!!
I feel that the Tomcat B(U) is going to to be a force to be reckoned with.
Troops walking in the Chinook is a great addition.
What song was that? Sounded like Lane Staley.
While I’m excited for B(U) and PTO, I can’t help but be a Debbie Downer. Without Jester improvements I won’t be able to employ the B(U) tatically, and without AI GFM and fixes to aimbot ground units I can’t make use of PTO either. Both of those have been postponed indefinitely, it seems.
Im underwelmed… My tuna steak and shrimp dinner was too much for this 6 minute, seen it all before video.
My big takeaway from that is infantry, the amount of screen time they got was fairly high, hopefully with the dynamic campaign combined arms 2 will be pushed,
unfortunately there were no real surprises in this one. The ww2 ships looked great not sure if I saw any hellcats
Tornado jp233 or whatever the Germans calll it looked amazing, troops boarding hind, new explosion effects
Overall nice vid with no new surprises, but some great improvements
So… Heatblur is making the Rafale with some new guys. They are making the C for chasseur. That unfortunately won’t mean the two-seater or even more unfortunate that it is not the Marine version. But who knows considering all the love the Tomcat got. What we will get though is the Meteor, so we are gonna get our first ramjet powered air to air missile.
I LOVE that Heatblur is doing the Rafale. Not only is it made on Heatblur’s ANVIL framework, but they are also the main developer. Great news!
Though the Marine is also my favourite Rafale variant.
But there’s more to it than just getting to fly one of our favourite aircraft.
Not so long ago, we were worried the Eurofighter would release and live in a “vacuum” without any peers.
Now it looks like we’ll be able to duke it out in Rafale, Eurofighter and F-35! DCS: Greenland 2026 anybody?
(Too soon?)
And for those air-to-air battles against modern adversaries, the Rafale C is a much better fit than the comparatively heavy M.
We’re really only missing an Su-35S and J-20 to make this complete.
I was also pleasantly surprised at how great the F-104 is looking! (Though I think it was only external shots)
well…. It’s only reddit so unsubstantiated rumour, but still…

Now wouldn’t that be just great. ![]()
Saw the J-20 news on Instagram as well. Definitely good to get more REDFOR in the mix.
