The team is very hard at work on finishing up the Phantom, as per our last update there’s a few last elements remaining before we’re EA ready. It’s a busy summer - as it’s finally time to get the early A out as well and continue making important in improvements across all products, so if we were stressed before it’s been ramped up to 11.

We’re keeping it fairly low key for now as there’s a big boi 15E saturating the airwaves and we’re focusing on being more complete before removing our chocks."

ā€œWe’re warming up your seat! The last miles are always the hardest, and the team is presently working night and day to get DCS: F-4E ready for launch.
The Phantom has now been in development for just over two years, and we’ve been working incredibly hard to build not only the ultimate recreation of the Phantom, but a sustainable platform for Heatblur moving forward, starting with the launch of the F-4.
Every rivet, screw, breaker, lamp, and otherwise will be accurately recreated in what we hope will be the ultimate simulation of the legendary Phantom. Our current focus is still on wrapping up some of the most complex and intricate systems coming to DCS: F-4E, such as Jester 2.0. Not only do we have to make sure that new features developed are great, polished and fun on day one; but since we’ll be re-using a lot of our new technology in both past and future aircraft, we’re treading thoughtfully. We’ve always tried to look for new ways to further DCS and our own products, and the Phantom will be no different. Elements like better in game learning or RPG-lite mechanics in JESTER are just some examples of where we’ve gone this time around.
Our key priority however is ensuring that you have a great experience on launch day, with a rich and as close to feature complete experience as we can provide, and we’ll be sparing no effort to get to the quality you all expect.
We can’t wait for you to fly the F-4. Stay tuned for more news, including F-4E, but also MSFS F-14 as well as updates to DCS: F-14, Viggen and other Heatblur elements shipping this year. We’re somewhat quiet at the moment as we have our heads down and are working hard, but we hope to share much more soon.
Thank you for all of the support, we couldn’t do this without you all!ā€

what I consider funny is that F4E seems to get release slot before long-time-promissed early F14A.
makes economical sense oc, F14 is not going to generate same sales as F4 anymore.

I made decision long time ago that I will buy F14 once the early one drops. unfortunately for me I already lost interest despite these being not only the best DCS modules but best flight sim modules in general.

anyway, looking forward to seeing you guys having fun with the F4. shaping up well.

I thought the F-14A had been released?
Just goes to show what little I know. Haven’t been playing with the Tomcat since I mounted my BRD-N stick in my SimBox. That stick can’t handle the analogue lift dumper axis of the VPC VFX grip and I can’t land the thing without it… :dizzy_face:
My DIY FFB stick will be able to use all the VPC grips, so I’m looking forward to fly the big cat again soon!
