Wildcats Recruitment

Thank you for your interest in the Wildcats!
 

What we are:


We are group of veteran DCS Pilots who have been a force within the DCS Community for over 10 years. 

Combined, we have had the joy of being a part of some of the most well-known groups within DCS over the years and have helped to support and grow the community.

The Wildcats break away from the norms of DCS in the form of becoming a Private Military Contractor or PMC.  We strive to set a different standard!  We are the only ''Authorized NATO based Private Military Contractor (PMC)" *A little role playing there* within the DCS community.

We specialize in Air and Air to Ground Combat through the recruitment, training and retention of veteran DCS World players.  Our goals are to effectively prosecute any objective as a structured, organized and controlled group to include Land, Sea and Air Assets and set a specific, achievable standard in flight, ground operations, controlling and mission making and design.  

The Wildcats has always been a group based on fun while learning.  While we strive for a sense of realism, we also like to keep the learning environment fun.  We are what you would consider casual mil-sim.  In that vein, we have set ourselves not only as a PMC, but we also take elements from the old "Strike Commander" video game.  As a PMC, we have the freedom to run as we wish, without being tied down to specific regulations or a pre-defined way of doing things.  As it is, we all pretend to be pilots (most of us, some are actual real pilots) when we strap on an aircraft, there is nothing wrong with some added role-play as well when it comes to the overall group.  We are hoping there is an interest in this and have firmly planted our feet in this direction.  Yes, it's different, but shouldn't your flight time be spent having more ''fun'' instead of the samen old hum drum?  We thought so as well... 

What does that mean to you?  It means you can fly just about any aircraft you wish to fly assuming you are at least familiar with it and its systems.  It means you will have a wealth of varied mission types both fun and challenging.  You’ll be a part of a much larger campaign based on various story line missions along with the normal, everyday types of missions and campaigns you are used to seeing along with a typical, standardized training you've likely seen before in larger groups.  You’ll be a part of regularly recorded video’s showcasing these missions and campaigns and you’ll grow to be one of the best, well rounded DCS Pilots in the community.
 

What we are looking for: 
 

Currently, we are rebuilding our structure, brand and base.  We are looking for like minded pilots familiar with their preferred air frame.  You will need to know the basics of your aircraft; take off's, landings, patterns (or CV procedures if applicable), your aircraft systems and its weapons along with formation flying (to an extent) and refueling.  As long as you know the basics, we can help you hone those skills into something better, something that makes you part of a larger group.

Pilots:  Those familiar with their air frames and can complete basic assigned tasks in them along with committing to the format and atmosphere we are trying to create.

CO/XO:  Those not only familiar with their aircraft but also considered experts in them.  Those willing to teach others how to become better at what they do.  Mentors willing to take time away from their own flight time to help others become successful.  Leaders who are on board with the CAG version of what the group's overall vision is, without question and will help carry that vision forward.  This is an interviewed position within the group for obvious reasons.

Map Makers:  Those familiar with generating missions on various maps using or not using scripting.  Those familiar with Combat Flight and can incorporate that into their mission ideas.  This is also an interviewed position in the group.

Skinners:  Those familiar with the DCS file structure and how it relates to skins.  Capable of working through ideas with others to complete skin projects in a timely fashion and to everyone's satisfaction.  This is also an interviewed position in the group.

Flight Leads/Trainers:  Similar to the CO and XO positions, FL's and Trainers will help CO's and XO's train squadrons in a given air frame based around already pre-determined training plans for the group as a whole.  Step by step instruction for each pilot wishing to become a Wildcat.  This is also an interviewed position within the group.

In-Game Videographers:  As the title suggests, individuals familiar with capturing video in the sim and compiling that into awesome videos!  Also, an interviewed position within the group.

The above listed positions within the group are the basis for a strong foundation.  These folks will form the core of the unit overall.  Other spots may open up from time to time and will be interviewed positions as well.  The overall need is a basic knowledge in these areas along with a dedicated understanding and commitment to what the overall group vision is.
