I don't read that at all from that statement. I think all he's saying is that they have a bunch of new features and improvements and are going to release them all in a single, cohesive patch rather than piecemeal.

Not as far as I know - This could change if they decide to add in even more features though.

I'm iffy on the Cobra only because it really is a 2-man bird, and with 1 I'm concerned about pilot overload unless they've got FS/BS coop worked out?

The F-86, though...as long as it's not poorly done I think I'm in. While it can't compete against missiles, in a guns-only fight it can handle any other bird in the game. Best Sabre to see combat!

Awesome to hear, Belsimtek has been putting out quality stuff and can consider both addons already bought by me. If they have the F-86, here's hoping that they at least give us an AI MIG 15 too. Having the P-51 already really puts us on a good track to DCS:Korean War.

Now to find some map makers out there...

Is the nose gun turret on the AH-1G fixed or rotates like the modern Cobras?

Rotates.... either 2 7.62 mini guns. 1 mini gun 1 40mm grenade launcher...etc.

Big one is it does not have ability to fire TOW missiles as a general rule. Although ungraded ones later did. But was no longer a G model.


And pretty sure the turret was intended to house the m197 20mm cannon from the get go. The prototype ah1 had I think... and the Marine ah1J got it as well. US army stuck with G arrangement threw the Q model (basically a G that could fire tows).

My bad, I was trying to say I wasn't expecting to know that the response of the F-15 at lower speed is that forgiving as the plane looks big and draggy.
I envy you assuming you already have it in your hands right now. biggrin
Would love to hear some input about FM especially around energy management area(compared with old FM) from you when NDA is over.

Really interesting.
Actually I'm more excited about this new CA than new plane or chopper, not just because is a tank shooting game but it actually adds the content to DCS a lot. (RTS, MP 9-line, tank, SAM...etc).
Hopefully the new CA expands the gameplay of the DCS further.

Great pics! Awesome news! F-86 is a must-buy, for me. Hope to see a MiG-15 on the list, as well, but I'd fly that bad boy any day.

MiG-15bis FTW, but we need an SE Asia/Korea terrain as well.

A Central European terrain would suffice, though.

Ugh AH-1G.

While I do love Belsimtek's addons I wish they would do something a bit more current with the Cobra. The Huey is still in use today in many parts of the world today so its somewhat relevant, but the AH-1G is not.

That being said if its up to their usual standards I will still buy it and Ill probably like it.

Damn you Belsimtek...

Yeah I'd much more prefer a newer variant, or an AH-64D (probably hard to get the license/rights for it), but I still think the Cobra will be a fun bird to fly.

....or just a more modern variant of the cobra. Something with 20mm and ATGMs at least.
