Jaster Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 That was a great interview with some very interesting insights into what it like to develop an aircraft for DCS. Like some of you have said, the Tornado or F111 would be nice but like some of you others I think they'll expand on the USN aircraft, incorporating another multi-crew aspect. Only time will tell I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert31178 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Yeah, or a F 111 :) But a Tornado would be a dream. And absolutely stunning would be an IDS AND ECR ^^ Or Inteuder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad_Karma-701 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I still think the Intruder is the most likely candidate. Just like they are developing an AI Draken for the Viggen, an AI Intruder is most likely as an addition to the Tomcat. The Intruder is simply needed as a strike aircraft to complement the air wing in the targeted time span. More so as the USS Ranger, one of the Forrestal-class carriers which HB invests much resources to develop, is featured in their planned Persian Gulf campaign. Ranger had the so called "All Grumman Air Wing", which featured two Intruder squadrons and no other strike aircraft. That campaign will simply not work without Intruder. In addition an AI A-6E could be easily modified as KA-6D tanker and with some more effort into a EA-6B Prowler (both important assets to the Tomcat). I think this makes an AI Intruder very likely to happen. Going from an AI A-6E and taking into account that the planned aircraft will have ground radar and multi crew, a full A-6E module just sounds most logical. Agreed kind of !! especially with them spending so much time on the Ranger and with the Tomcat the INTRUDER makes the most sense especially with the Improved air to ground radar that is being worked on but, It could also be the the Prowler or the Crusader as well. but I do think their next project will be something that flew off the Ranger.

I think you nailed on the head with this one. Look, I'm in the F-111 fanclub, but I think it is very safe to say it will be an A-6. If not an F-111, the A-6 would be my second choice and I'm very much looking forward to flying the intruder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I also love the F-111, but an Intruder would certainly make sense, as it compliments the carrier and the Tomcat. Tornado would obviously also be awesome. I'd love to see more European aircraft.

westr Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 The Tornado would fall into the catagory of utilising previously developed features by HB.

QuiGon Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 The Tornado would fall into the catagory of utilising previously developed features by HB. Very much so, even more than the A-6! But the A-6 has the advantage that it would be a good complement to the Tomcat. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

amalahama Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Intruder is an OK choice. But Tornado... OMG the Tornado, that will become a Blockbuster from day 1!!!! So many memories from the old DI simulator, and so many interesting weapons to play around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
