Knubinator Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I've chatted up a couple Gig pilots at air shows before, and a couple had actually played DCS before, and were impressed by it. My roommates older brother drives the F18C, and he's agreed to come on a leave and try it out when it releases. i7 4790k @ 4.4, 32GB RAM, RX480 GTR I fly it all.

If I remember correctly the A-10C module was initially tailor made for the USAF - as a desktop tool to learn the avionics in the Charlie model when the squadrons transitioned from the A-model.

Supersheep Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 @Skate: That looks ergonomically stressing as 'uck. Now, it's the military, but if they do eight hour training events in there, jeez.

Warthog was released Around Sep. 2010 DCS A-10C around Apr. 2011 *Dates taken from Wiki. USAF HAD the A-10C Training Platform Long before that, as ED was Given Permission to Make an Entertainment version in May 2008.

BitMaster Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Come to my place, not far from Spangdahlem, next to RAB, and you can watch the A-10 and Ah-64 playing games above my roof. Sometimes...last time about half year ago, they had a huge High Altitude thing going on at night... very very impressive...as long as my shindles stay where they are ( to the last AH-64 Pilot ) Greetings from Altenglan, Rhinland Palatine, squeezed in between Ramstein, Spangdahlem and Baumholder. You just can't get more military around you. BTW, the Shirt would be a cool thing to buy off the website, or a hat or coffee mug or such ;) Bit Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Asus 1080ti EK-waterblock - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus PG278Q 27" QHD Gsync 144Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
