DCS Aircraft Service Years - Spreadsheet

Recommended Posts

Yes, Please! also to the Phrog, UH-46 Sea Knight!

Yeah, the 46 is there ^^

So is the UH-60 - added it as a version-less entry, as any version would be good to start with :P

 

As for the UH-1N: Maybe! I'll look into it. Edit: Added it.

DCS has been out for long enough now, that the spreadsheet could have a dot in the year column that the DCS implementation was released:

 

          ...  2017 2018 2019 2020
F-16          |    |    |  o |    |
Viggen        | o  |    |    |    |
etc.

 

Interesting idea. But why? :)

I think you'll find the EE Canberra had a rather longer service life than the B-57 licensed copy btw - 1951-2006. I'd like a Hawker Hunter myself - introduced 1951 and still active as contracted OPFOR. Westland Lynx heli, 1971-in service is another long lived machine.

Yeah, but the licensed US copy had a better looking cockpit. ;)

 

And most helicopters have had long service lives :D

well its hard to say which tranche and block will be give, but tranche block 5 was already operational and flying ADF missions in nato starting in 2007 and by 2008 the UK declared initial A/G capability for the block 5.

 

Germans began an retrofit program to being up earlier blocks to tranche 5 standards. Not sure when thiers went operational.

Yeah, it seems that the capabilities of different tranches/blocks also differ from country to country. For example, AFAIK, UK Block5s have AIM120s, but the German don't.

I'll leave it unspecified until they've decided on exact version =)

They are still exploring what they can actually do;

do they?

 

I mean even in the WIP photos we see a luftwaffe skin EF carrying some Aim120.

 

The Germans were already using AIm120's with their F-4F ICE's.

If one goes by what the Wiki says, Block 10 was the first (german) Typhoon that could fire the 120's (so the one in the pictures could be a B10+?). And then I heard other, UK, sources say that the UK Block 5 was upgraded with 120 capability as well.

 

The whole Typhoon project is a huge nest of versions and test versions over multiple decades, so I would not be surprised if everything is actually true xD

 

 

And yes, they are still exploring. Read their FAQ :)

I think its safe to say we can take his word on it.

 

 

Even doing my own digging, i have found some publications myself from 2005 ( which is pre block 5) there is already AIm120 references.

 

 

Someone also made a thread of EF features

Cool!

Now the big questions is instead A2G capabilities.

AFAIK the german ones never had much of that.

I've looked and can't find the FAQ, could someone point me the way or tell me why I'm not seeing the Mig 29 and Su27, 33, etc in the spreadsheet please?

It's because all FC3 things are hidden (they are there) because they are not fully modeled, and don't really count. 😉
