Vulcan confirmed!!

[PaulRix]

The Vulcan would be a first day purchase for me! When I was a young kid I used to watch them fly over the house. Probably one of the things that sparked the aviation bug for me.

[BadKarma]

Vulcan- oh boy! That will be an AWESOME addition to the ranks.

[Silver_Dragon]

Remember Razbam team show a VC-10 tanker and other UK aircrafts was show in the past, surelly Victor, Vulcans and argentinian stuff can coming in a future.

[JediMaster]

While I can imagine AI Vulcans, I can’t picture a player-flown one until we have our first heavy from ED.

I like the idea of a Sea Harrier, but I want them to finish the AV-8B first.

We don’t have the map size for strategic bombers. Intercepting them is one thing, actually flying them we need A LOT more space.

I think the Sea Harrier FRS.1 might actually be easier to finish completely than the AV-8B. Less systems and special stuff to do.

I think we’d just need to temper our expectations. I don’t see anything wrong with having strategic bombers operate from our smaller theatres, even if the maps are ridiculously small for that. Trade away fuel for extra ordnance and it all balances out.

Make that first big bomber from WWII instead! (With multicrew).

Sotoyomo class tug

I find myself wanting to drive the tug. Err…pilot it…or helm it…or whatever you do with a tug. They should add it to Combined Arms…

[PaulRix]

Only if it uses Merlin engines .

Take off from the most rearward bases, then climb in a holding pattern, then press on to the target. I bet missions of well over an hour would easily be possible… or for online just air start at the far edge of the map.

I would really enjoy trying to try in flight refueling in a Vulcan.

It really should be relatively simple. They already have the VSTOL aspect figured out, we have the AIM9L , and the Blue Fox radar should be fairly simple to model when compared to something more modern.

[Franze]

I think the most complex avionics are the inertial nav and the HUD in the FRS.1? Makes a huge difference in systems development work, though they’d still need reference material.

Wonder if ascension island will be modelled for the V force home base

DCS: BN-2 Islander, confirmed!

Or, as @wagmatt would put it: ”What are those Islanders doing there?”

[schurem]

I’m afraid those are static props map looks good though!
