I really think I could enjoy flying around low and slow in an armed turboprop trainer, hunting for insurgents among the mountains. But otoh, I might have to get the Hawk first, if nor for something else, then for the fact that with it and the F/A-18C the whole tactical fleet of the Finnish Air Force is represented. thumbsup

I really enjoyed Iris' early FSX releases...but they often started projects that often turned to vaporware. They also seemed to have tapered off of their FSX support for their current stable of aircraft in FSX. So, while I do love the stuff I do have from them, buyer beware of their support and releases in DCS. Perhaps they were purposely weening off of FSX to better support DCS, least it's my hope. I think they're trying to solicit Dino Cattaneo for their F14, which should make for an excellent model. As for their F22, again, I hope it's modelled in depth much better than their FSX variant.

So... the end of the year is looming...albeit around 8 weeks away...

As 2012 draws slowly to a close, we've been able to reflect on a good year... we've put in place significant groundwork this year, contracts with The Fighter Collection now sees us developing for the DCS platform, whilst other new and exciting opportunities from a variety of other areas means that 2013/14 will be busy and productive for the entire IRIS team.

We've been recruiting new team members, some from within the industry and others from far afield, all bringing a fresh and unique element to our team.

Now where does that leave you and all your toys? Well, between now and Christmas, we're focused on the Pilatus PC-21. That's our Christmas toy... It's being focused on development for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Lockheed Martin Prepar3D. Once we have those platforms released, we will also be investigating the use of DCS.

The F-14 Tomcat is a labour of love and will take a fair bit of time... we want it right..not right out now. So expect early betas around late next year all going well... there's a lot to learn as we've always said and we're working hard with ED and the DCS community to ensure it's up to scratch.

In the interim, we'll keep developing, and no doubt the community will keep on supporting as you always do.

Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Regards

David
