MiG-19P Farmer "B" Status

OK, back on topic:

Can we assume that system wise the module is complete?

BTW is there a chance we can get the manual before release?

Prowler says so.

Exactly, we planned to release this aircraft by 2018, and in fact all development goals were achieved BUT we decided to go further with art and also manuals, training missions etc, since this is going out as a complete module.

I'd assume complete means all systems are working. Can't wait for the Farmer if that's true.

Thanks for the video. Can't wait to fly it !!!!

Guys I have cleaned this thread. Please keep on topic.

If you have any concerns over the voiceover please approach Baltic Dragon, but may I suggest you provide helpful feedback with volume rather than simply attacking a Russian actor for speaking Russian!

Looks really good, but please make sure that subtitles come readable. The accent is on point here, i have yet to see someone complaining C-101 tutorial for being entirely voiced in spanish, or L-39 in russian, so this complains here are really redundant, as Rudel said before not all of us here are born in english speaking countries, so sometimes we just have the subtitles for when we cannot understand the full sentences.

How's the manual progressing? Do you need some help with the proofreading?

There were such complaints on the language, actually, because the voice was Russian when English locale settings were set (for the L-39), which makes no sense. In the MiG-19 it is coherent with the user settings.

Regarding the 4K issue mentioned several times, and from what I see on the video, the subtitles are shown in the usual log window, so they'll be at whatever resolution you are using with your monitor when running the training mission. It's just a temporary issue with Youtube, but we'll all be able to read them in DCS :)

Englishmen really, russian language on you. Enjoy the subtitles like whole of the world mostly in foreign language. Stop whining.

Complaining about complaining about the voice over isn't helping the thread stay on topic either. Let this be the last time someone complains about complaining about complaining. :)

Thank you for letting us have training videos before the release. If a full cold start and any weapon employment vids are on the way then I'm excited!

Mad-MM I don't know if it's just a simple light but this is what's been said before about Sirena anyway:

The MiG-19P RWR, when mounted, it is only rear aspect and only warns when a radar is locked on you. It does not provide any other info.

 

Search radars are not detected.

I'd assume it's just a light if it 'does not provide any other info'.

Yes, that is correct. I am not sure if there was a sound warning to go with it.

The RWR panel is actually a switch and two lights, one to indicate that it is working and the other to indicate a locked threat.

It is not mounted by default. You have to select it in the ME.

Thanks for the info!

Looking forward for more videos. Is it still due for release this month?

P!L!E!A!S!E! R!E!L!E!A!S!E!

I haven't watched it yet (will shortly) but I saw in the Italian section an early access gameplay video that went to YouTube a few minutes ago.

Edit: Watched the video now.

Great to hear the release is still for this month, and still a mostly complete state! The cockpit has come far since the first WIP pictures so I'm excited to see what the new textures coming shortly after launch look like.

Yes cockpit textures will have some more love according to Zeuss !! And if the interior textures reach the incredible level of realism than the exterior...well gentlemen...we'll have some serious fun with that bird !

Love the external textures, not sure about the afterburner glow though.

I will buy after i see the final cockpit textures. The external model looks beautiful but the office doesnt cut it for me now. And since i will be spending most of my time there it has to be perfect.

So please make the textures the same high quality you would expect looking at the outside ones.

Great video!!! Can't wait to spam my server with MiG-19's :lol: F-5's watch out!

Excellent video.

I'm quite disappointed by the rockets effectiveness, that will be hard to find other jobs than interception with that aircraft.

So final cockpit textures will be released afterwards, yeah ok why not. But I still will wait to see the final product before opening my wallet anyway.

Well it's the S-5... has been mostly the same in L-39, MiG-21 and Su-25. Need to be very accurate with them and even then fire a bunch of them to have a decent chance of causing damage.

Excellent video.

Those 57mm were initially designed as air-to-air weapon.

Indeed. Planning to get that into the A-A training mission :)

Well… I learnt something today :D

B-52 vs unguided rockets? :D

B-52 vs unguided rockets? :D

Tried that with MiG-21. Hysterically fun.

B-36 and B-47 were still mainstream then. RB-66 was shot down exactly with S-5 rockets in 1964.

Yes, that true, S-5 were created in first place for A-A fight (variant with fragmentation warhead). During trials of early jets, Soviets realize (and not only them) that in some cases cannons, even those with quite big caliber, can be inefective against big aircrafts. In early 50's effective A-A guided missiles didn't exist so FFAR's were seen as a kind of solution for cannon's weakness problem. This is reason why MiG-19 had those small pylons for ORO-8 launchers only, if cannons are not working, have to shoot down target with salvo of FFAR's. Main weapon for first serial MiG-21 variant were doubled ORO launchers called UB-16. Last aircraft in Soviet inventory with FFAR's launchers as a A-A weapon was MiG-23, he had lot of external stores variants when guided missiles were mixed with FFAR's. Btw, S-5 wasn't so weak like in DCS, S-5K anti-armour variant was able knock out T-55 like tank, was able pierce about 150 mm of steel, modernized S-5K1 about 170 mm of steel. Arab or Indian Su-7's destroyed many armours with those rockets.

Thanks for the info, very useful!
