Even an f-18e/f would add some excitement to naval ops. And maybe a different theater of operations would be nice. this combined arms angle is exciting... _________________________ ENO "Go Ugly Early."

Honestly, how many were even aware of the Ka-50 before DCS decided to do it? I think It's not about them making sims for the platforms we love, it's about them making us love the platforms they make sims for.

True, same applies to the Eastern front and Il-2. If the product is good enough...

BillyRiley Member Registered: 01/28/04 Posts: 1518 Loc: Colchester, England	I agree with rud24 - and in truth, whilst I have my favourites that I'd like, I'd be quite stoked about a relative unknown. I just can't get excited about props. So whatever they are working on in the jet/helicopter department, I'd be stoked about. Just wish I knew

To my understanding this indeed is the main criteria when they choose what to model, i.e. all pertinent data has to be available for the plane in question in order to reproduce it accurately.

Frederf Member Registered: 10/26/09 Posts: 613	I couldn't imagine an aircraft that has seen military service that I would not find entertaining. KC-10? UH-60? P-80? F-5E? C-130? Each one has something new to offer in terms of experiencing aviation in a way that one hasn't before. There are ones better than others, namely ones with lots of functions and ones with a prevalent role on the FC/DCS combined battlefield. P-51 sounds cool if for no other reason than I haven't seen a plane of this type in enough depth. IL-2 just doesn't cut it. And I'm making a mental bookmark about the combined ops thing. If it's exactly as I think it will be I claim the right for an "I told you so." If it's not then you can laugh at me.
