Solty Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) I also preordered. One of few jets that are truly fascinating to me. The mission variety alone is astounding. Everything from interception, escort, strike missions, CAS, CAP, SEAD, Anti-Shiping, etc. And on top of it a fighter with excellent manoeuvrability and a beautiful Bubble cannopy. AiM-9X and AiM120C. It will be definitely an amazing Co-Op plane! Edited September 26, 2019 by Solty [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]In 21st century there is only war and ponies.

The Mavericks can be used in anti-ship mode, so..dedicated, no, capable, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_mu110_ Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Interesting see the "paralell" progress on systems on Viper and Hornet. I agree, with all the systems the two aircraft have in common it seems like ED’s development strategy is really paying off :thumbup: Check out my skins and mods on the User Files.

Sierra99 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Interesting see the "paralell" progress on systems on Viper and Hornet. I think this is where "DCS: WORLD" is really beginning to shine. The common core of the game allows much quicker implementation of systems from one Aircraft to the next because they don't have to reinvent the wheel every time.

Dagger52 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Idk if this was asked already but are there 2 hardpoints missing in our upcoming F16? I looked at all the screenshots and there are Always the two hardpoints missing where the F16 is usually carrying ist TGP. Or is it just there when a store is added in the Station? https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheaviationist.com%2F2015%2F01%2F20%2Fnellis-afb-ordinary-day%2F&psig=AOvVaw2UWPHjmA_VmF0QgQ8_tsNq&ust=1569647550790000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCLjPofie8OQCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
