I am pretty sure a P-51 downed a Mig-15 in Korea. What are the chances you could get a Mig-29 in FC?

No - for now it is a P-51 in the modern world - Mods are in the works but they are not by ED and I couldn't say if they extend yet to theatre wide overhaul as that would be a massive undertaking for mod makers, let alone ED.

Nate,

How are updates planned? Is it a patch to patch for now or entire world would have to be re-downloaded.

AFAIK you download DCS:- World and then download and install each module. It is now one integrated install rather than many. Note this method is still currently an open Beta.

You can download and install those modules into DCS:-World - if you already have Warthog and Black Shark activated, you can fly straight away in DCS:-World.

EDIT:- A-10 and Ka-50 Modules are due soon*

Me? I don't do that, I just test. I'm Sure modders will come up with something if there is demand. I know other WW2 stuff is in the works by modders.

I see that this is one of the very late build P-51's. It has the two antenea, which means it's equipped with the direction finding gear the Mustang pilots over Japan used to find the B-29's that led them home. Also, it has rear facing radar that picked up enemy planes getting in behind you. That light in the control panel lit up when a plane got on your tail. Does it work?
