Fri13 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Just watching that "inside Su-22 cockpit" video, and again spotted the same thing as Su-25 and Su-27 etc. Why did soviets place a RWR warning (SPO-15) to bottom right corner? Like the furthest place they can find? Was it because in the high G maneuvers your eyes stay better at low, or that it is in shade as it would be hard to read otherwise or what? It can't be a accident that there is no space to place it anywhere else than to bottom right corner? Was the SPO-15 so "ugly child" position that it was wanted to be place furthest possible corner? SPO-10 on left side of the HUD, but then SPO-15 at bottom right corner? I just don't get that SPO-15 positioning in any of those aircrafts... i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

WinterH Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Ok, TBH he is speaking mostly about modern Russian aircraft, and also says that it may still be open for 3rd parties. So didn't seem as doom & gloom. As for the Mi-24, yeah it looks to be kinda distant, but that isn't exactly news at this point.

Harlikwin Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 as per latet Wag's interview all russian modules are proihibited for them. I'm not sure he said they were prohibited explicitly. It sounded more like neither mikyoan or sukoi would work with them on those modules, which is probably what kills it. Otherwise, how do you reconcile the fact he said 3rd parties could do red air modules. If the Russian govt said, no red air in DCS that would basically mean no red air period, 3rd party or not. So I took this as meaning as the plane makers weren't too enthused with doing it. If a 3rd party can get enough info to do a mig29 from western sources (and I think that should be possible) then I think we might be able to see one. Though I think it would be difficult to get the required data on the systems in detail. I think there is probably enough aerodynamic data out there in the west (I think NASA might have done some even), and certainly enough on basic systems function. The main problem would be weapons/sensors IMO, but we already at least have symbology from the FC3 planes... Switchology could suck though. The other interesting comment was "while the company was in russia" implying that maybe they might move at some point, but I imagine that would be an insane undertaking. Anyhow my .02c take on the interview. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

OnlyforDCS Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Anyhow my .02c take on the interview. He "literally" said its a "NO GO" for them. Not unless they open up major offices outside of Russia. He also stated that this restriction doesn't carry over to 3rd party developers, who DO have offices outside of Russia and who HAVE access to materials and didn't have to ask for permission to develop said modules. How this all works out legally, I have no idea, but the main takeaway from this is that Eagle Dynamics will not be producing Redfor aircraft in the forseeable future.

Yeah, but the point is why its a no-go. If the actual goverment had a problem with it, then there would no red air period 3rd party or not. I think the real issue is "offical sources" for documents. I doubt mig or Su will work with some 3rd party either. But on the older planes, there is a ton of soviet era documentation out there anyway. Also from western countries that either flew or evaluated the planes. I would think Germany or the Czech republic or Slovakia or Poland would be good places to go looking for documentation I'd add hungary, but no one could read that :megalol: . At the end of the day I'd love to see HB do a mig29. Edited March 12, 2019 by Harlikwin New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

If the actual goverment had a problem with it, then there would no red air period 3rd party or not. Sorry but that is pure speculation, and it's inferring a lot from Wag's statement, which we can only take at face value.

I'm not saying ED is going to do red air when he said they weren't going to. But I find the fact he said a 3rd party dev could do one and they could plunk it into DCS world very interesting. To me that says its not some explicit govt "ban" on those aircraft, but rather there is something else going on in terms of sources/cooperation with 3rd parties thats potentially problematic. So if say HB got western sources and data to do a mig29 (of which plenty exist), maybe they could. I actually find the whole thing a bit weird, why not just tell us the actual reason?

OnlyforDCS Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I actually find the whole thing a bit weird, why not just tell us the actual reason? I expect the complete reason is not for public knowledge. They are a russian company owned by someone who is not Russian. (Stephen Grey) They also have several former military and intelligence specialists of various nationalities working for them. (Wags himself is a former CIA analyst) I believe that due to the current political situation in Russia they are just being careful and don't want to go even near that can of worms. NO company in the world wants to undergo close government scrutiny, even if they have nothing to hide this makes operating in a business sense quite difficult. I also expect publishing a module and developing it itself are quite different under Russian law, which is why they are willing to publish 3rd party software of this kind and not willing to develop it.

It could be some kind of deal or special dispensation. Also, the Mi24 has been on the backburner for a while now. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was quietly shelved to be released at some future "TBA" date and never heard from again.

erniedaoage Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I think the whole discussion is about getting documentation, a real bird and a couple of pilots who operated that bird. I can't speak for the ka-50, but every other redfor module we have is a warsaw pact/export model. I think it's a huge task for any developer to get their hands on a real bird of a special version which fit into dcs, get all the documentation and probably an ex-pilot who operated the aircraft and is willing to contribute his experience into the module.

Yeah, I agree there. Documentation and willing pilots are probably hard to come by. Doc wise, I think the mig29 is probably realistic since it was the "tier 2" fighter of the era, and its been tested and evaluated by basically everyone. Same thing pilot wise, lots more people flew the mig than the shukoi. That being said, I still want the Su-27. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.
