pyromaniac4002 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Well, if I may be blunt, How come that there is so much resistance for the F16 in DCS? It's always baffled me too. Anyone who's completely honest about wanting a top-notch realistic military flight sim with 4th-gen fighters is forced to acknowledge how essential an F-16 module is in accomplishing that. For the most part I think it's just that the people with a personal agenda that puts the F-16 as a lower priority are louder about it than the rest. edited. If we live long enough, I'm sure we'll see a DCS: F-16C. It's just an absolute necessity in the subject matter which DCS gives the most attention and whether it's ED or 3rd party, someone is going to do it. We know they have the information to make it, we know it will instantly be one of the most popular modules (if not the most popular outright), there's too much common sense involved that's supports the idea. My bet is once the F/A-18C is out with its A/G radar and the other basic foundations of multirole airflcraft, an F-16 announcement won't be too far behind. Everyone here who wants to tear down the F-16 in the hopes of a MiG-31 or something will just have to live with it.

mattebubben Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) I to would have nothing against a F-16. I would probably want to see multiple F-16 Variants though. Both a F-16A and a F-16C. The F-16A being a either a "older" F-16A Block 15 or a later F-16A OCU (The OCU having a New improved hud aswell as the ability to use the Aim-120 and was able to carry other weapons the other F-16As were unable to carry) And the C being anywhere between Block 30-50. Id probably prefer a Block 30/32 or Block 40/42 over a 50/52 but a MLU would also be very nice. (id prefer the C not to be a 50/52 since i think all other F-16 simulations are of block 50/52s) And maby a Block 30/32 or 40/42 would be easier to get Permissions for. (My prefered for the most modern F-16 variant would be probably be a F-16C Block 40/42) But yea i would love to see both an early and later F-16 model. And who can resist This cockpit xD.

VIKBELL Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 No interest here either. There are 2 categories of fighter pilots: those who have performed, and those who someday will perform, a magnificent defensive break turn toward a bug on the canopy.

Just wanted to add: F-16 block 15, 20 OCU, MLU can be referring to the same aircraft depending on the country and the year. I mean the same serial number specific aircraft. There are so many countries and so many different updates and every country choose different updates and different times so it gets confusing quickly. Every OCU or MLU is different and most block 15 where updated to block 20. Same applies to block 30 to 52. They all different capabilities added over the years and different countries got different updates and capabilities. Some (but not all) example; - Turkish AF Block 40 where converted to block 50 (still using older GE-100 instead of the block 50 GE-129). Visually you can tell because a block 40 serial number will have Advance IFF fins and block 50 HUD. - 180th FW is the only block 42 user with F100-PW-229 engine IIRC. - Republic of Korea block 52 have different HUD mix, some have normal block 52 HUD while others have block 40/42 wide HUD. - Hellenic AF, Israel AF, etc. block 52/52+ can carry the AN/AAQ-13. Not the same on the USAF. By the way, the block 52 is only used operationally (in combat) by the 169th FW in the US AFAIK. - Republic of China block 20 where made from the factory with AIM-120 capability and their MLU might include AESA radar update, different that the Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Portugal MLU (which differentiate among each other as well) - AFAIK, some of the F-16 sold from one country to another get modified, changing their capabilities (upgrade or downgrade) Here is a good list of different updates that aircraft got at different time http://wiki.scramble.nl/index.php/Lockheed_Martin_F-16_Fighting_Falcon To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

FSKRipper Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Depends on the country, year and specific aircraft. In general terms, some blk 50/52 can now carry several different TGP. And welcome to the problems.. I followed this thread over weeks and everybody has another idea of which version with which weapons should be made. I stopped counting at 8 versions... How should do ED this? Hm wait, a module with 10 subversions for 400 bucks :megalol: If you choose one model you will disappoint many fans of the other versions (and countries). Remember the numerous demands in the LNS forums for more modern MiG-21 versions.

I followed this thread over weeks and everybody has another idea of which version with which weapons should be made. I stopped counting at 8 versions... How should do ED this? We ( the community, all of us in some way or other) have demonstrated that no matter what module ED or ED partners release, we would have something we do not like. Mig-21, Mirage 2000, A-10C, KA-50, P-51etc. People always complain, from the weapons to the avionics systems. So on the question; How ED should do this? My guess, Anyway they want to. People will complain no matter what, so whom ever makes an F-16 module can make an amalgam or they can make a specific version (i.e. USAF block 30, circa 1998 with X, Y and Z capability but without this or that) Does not matter.

mvsgas Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 (edited) Possible F-16 acquisitions Pakistan Iraq Bahrain Republic of Korea (ROK) Singapore Belgium This are just some of the ones that mention the F-16 directly. If we look at weapons (AIM-9X/120C-7, JADAM, etc.) and systems (TGP, JHMCS, etc.) there is even more updates, upgrades and sales related to F-16 around the world.

Others disagree. Whenever someone brings up the F-16 for DCS were told BMS has done it already and it's not needed. Why?

Remember the numerous demands in the LNS forums for more modern MiG-21 versions I think a Block 30-50 range would best compliment the other aircraft in the sim.

WelshZeCorgi Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I honestly, don't see why not. I mean people point at BMS and say that's good enough. But BMS is a totally different game, you can't exactly join a DCS server on BMS in multi, not to mention better graphics, sound, different maps (Strait, Nevada, Georgia,) and also the graphics make me queasy, (it sort of shifts weirdly, as you travel forward, as if what was being rendered in was slightly off and the game corrected it by shifting all the pixels by one, if that makes sense) It's not like DCS: F-16 release = No more BMS ever for anyone that loves the game.

Thanks Yes, and BN said, these discussions between DCS vs XXX never seem to end well, this isnt a comparison forum so we try to avoid those discussions, at the end of the day if an F-16 comes to DCS some will love the DCS version, some will love another and some will love both... but the discussion of those 3 opinions is not for here. We only care what is going on in DCS, if you want to discuss other sims as well as DCS, I suggest going to http://www.mudspike.com, they have a great forum for all things sim and then some.
