First Time poster… Was just on the leatherneck site and clicking the coming soon link on the leatherneck projects page would redirect to this 404 page : http://www.vmfa-531.com/leathernecksim/coming-soon/. VMFA-531… F-4s?
Ehhh…don’t know about that F-4… somebody did image analysis of the coming soon pic over on the ED Forums … looks like a P-38 fam
Hasn’t that been back there since before the Tomcat was announced?
the real question here is what Tomcat news will come out from Heatblur shortly after this announcement of a pre-announcement. The hype attempt is admirable though.
Like I know.
So, the clue is a geometric shape. When I think of geometric shapes in relation to aircraft, only one springs to mind and it is no longer in service. Wishful thinking maybe.
When I see the cube…I was thinking “outside the box”…but that’s just me…
XF-85 confirmed.
Over on the REDDIT/Hoggit forum, the consensus seems to be the Super Galeb.
Light Strike/Aerobatic jet
Personally, not a purchase I see making if true.
Why the super galeb? I don’t see the hints for that.
LNS devs made a comment about it being a Super bird, there was a picture of an aerobatic pattern, the grainy picture is supposedly an airbase in Serbia, and I believe their in house MiG driver is also Serbian.
I think it’d be a nice AI aircraft in game for Balkaning, but I can’t see myself ever flying it.
Super Galeb would be a waste of manhours. Only Serbs and completionists would buy it.
Theres many more jets that are thuper; super sabre, super etendard are tqo that come to mind…
Well, the latter is present a lot in the DCSW community so… maybe it is worth it.
…says the guy who owns half a dozen modules just because they are there and hasn’t flown those more than one hour each…
Its not a waste of manhours if the Serbian Air Force has already paid in advance for it or signed a contract. We probably wouldn’t have the A-10C without ANG sponsorship.
That said, my wallet isnt interested either.
That makes sense Wade, or it would if it weren’t a plane built in a limited run for a very small, very poor little airforce back in the early 80s. those things are ancient if they are at all still operational.
