No in the F5E

I can't wait to see the videos of you taking out fully armed F15s and Flankers. It would be very educational.

Spain does not use the F/A-18C... only EF-18A and F/A-18A+ Hornets. I'm looking forward to seeing what I can accomplish with this austere version of the F-5E. It's going to be good fun.:thumbup:

Go look at the screens. Says right on the right side vertical panel below the tail hook.

I don't really care about the reasoning... I'm just happy to have the module. A good pilot will find a way to be successful and that is the fun part for me. I'll probably get shot down a lot in the F-5E at first and that's ok while I am still learning from the experience. In most modern combat aircraft the aircraft does most of the work for you. That is not the case with the F-5E, you have be smart in its employment. MiG-21's, Su-27's, MiG-29's, F-15's... the opponent does not matter. Get in, hit the target and get out and if one of those other jets want to tangle then we'll dance. I care more about mission completion, solid tactical decision making and learning the airframe/systems operation than how my score stacks up in death match server so most of the arguments against this jet seem kind of silly to me. To each their own though. If you don't want a simple DCS ASM/EFM tactical fighter don't get it, it's that simple.

i never said anything about not buying it..... its just that people keep thinking this is going to be facing modern fighters, forgeting about the Mig21bis module here, and also other legacy fighters that are not yet in DCS.

ultimately modern fighters vs others of the same generation, does take skill getting in a proper intercept, and launching and evading missiles too, its just oriented at longer ranges, and using the more sophisticated technology is more chanagling to learn is in its oen way vs simpler more primitive technology thats easier to learn.

realistically Mig21bis and F5E vs 4th geenration fighters is really just those who want a masochistic challenge, the minority id say.

IM buying it because ii like the aircraft. However the primarily reasoning is related to BST reason for creating the F5E. I like most people here, want a fairer and more competitive matchup for MP , not unfair 1 sided matchups ( ie vs Modern jets).

Which now the F5E vs Mig21bis, and future LN A37J viggen will offer against each other in the 3rd generation legacy aircraft era. This legacy era will continue to expand in the future, with modules like the A7 corsair and A6 intruder being planned by Razbam, an potentially addtions like the F4 phnatom, Mirage 3, Mirage F1 etc. etc.
