VEAO is doing the A-4C "Skyhawk"?

By their very nature they are restricted, I can't tell you or talk about them, Sorry.

Ps. Note I say restricted, not classified.

How odd.

We would need the A-4E Super Echo IIRC, but I can be wrong of course.

 

I like the list, hope to see a Super Tucano there one day.

 

BTW regarding the Phantom, there are tons of countries that used the, some are still in use, anyone tried to contact them? Spain used the C version (I would prefer a E, but will take wathever you guys can release). Or the restricted systems apply to all the countries?

How odd.

I really hate to kill a conversation dead guys but we just can't speak about it. There are some restrictions in place that mean that we just talk about the specifics. In this instance your just going to have to take my word for it I'm afraid.

There are just too many things that are off the table for us to consider either the Tomcat or the Phantom.

One would imagine the Vulcan would present no legal issues:music_whistling:

The most iconic aircraft of my youth. Please Jim could you fix it for me....................;)

I wasn't pushing the issue.

nah it's ok, we are getting alot of questions about them, especially the Phantom.

It's as frustrating for us as it is for you, but we have to obey the

law and guidance we have received from official sources :)

Pman

Is understandable.

Hope you can create more advanced versions of the Skyhawk in the future.

Hmm now let me think...Skyhawk....Harrier...where did those two meet I wonder?? ;)

What about sneaky sneaky Super Étendard :D

No choppers VEAO?

Shhh... Dont give pman any ideas :music_whistling:

Probably just sticking with what they know best for now which makes sense. Although I know what would be nice to see down the line.. :smilewink:

hahaha, he doesn't have to give me ideas, just ask Chris!

Haha... Okay :smilewink:

Very nice, gentlemen. Love the A-4. I think it was my first scale model that I built as a kid. You knew which kids back then were into aviation if they knew "that plane" that the aggressors flew in Top Gun :thumbup:

 

Sad that we won't see the Tomcat anytime soon. But thus is life.

 

I used to pass the rows and rows of them at Davis-Monthan every day. There are plenty of airframes left :D

There's some guys working on an F14D mod details are in the mods and apps section of the forum. There intention is to maybe have a better than standard flight model and a clickable pit. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they can produce something.

Haha... Okay :smilewink:

 

Hahahahahaahah! Yes please!

Good buddy of mine is probably jumping with delight at the prospect of an A-4 in DCS

I supose we will see all the weapons used by this bird, including player directed AGM-12 Bullpups, AGM-45 Shrike ARMS, M117 iron bombs, Mk-82 Snakeyes bombs and several gun and rocket pods...

Man hope ED adds a SA-2 soon!!

VEAO is a group of dedicated professionals, whose goal is to produce the highest quality product for DCS, which is why we chose them to produce this aircraft. We wanted to make sure the baby that we had created was in good hands.

Having you and Anthony on board is a privilege Jim and the work you have done on the Skyhawk is amazing!!

Do I read this correctly? No NWS on that plane? I wonder how the ground handling will feel like... Definitively looking forward to that.

The original scooter had less systems than you would believe as a means to reduce weight and NWS was one of the options left out on the earlier models (I believe it was introduced on the F model) which in this case does include the C. If you watch videos of Skyhawks on carriers you will see deck handlers assisting the steering of the nose gear with an attachment to the wheel. The pilot had to use differential braking for steering.

I'm really looking forward to this. I was very impressed with JazAero's model and knowledge of the aircraft and now with a partnership with VEAO this is the one aircraft I'm looking forward to the most from all the works in progress from all developers. I'm stoked. Good times indeed. Maybe an F-8 Crusader down the line?

Anyone know if the AGM45 will be included or not? Either way - seriously looking forward to this module! Day 1 buy for me.

Exact munitions etc are tbc at the moment.

We would expect to do a full array of weaponary for any of our aircraft.

Appropriate announcements will be made in due course :)

Will be interesting.
