NahkaSukka Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I have to say no, since i'd rather have multi crew attack chopper like Apache, Cobra, Mi-24 or something similar. Link to post Share on other sites

NeilWillis Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 And come that revolution, would you rather a great big helicopter came along to rescue you, or an Apache? Seriously though, I'd love a Chinook, and I'd love an Apache too. But I said yes here anway. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
firmek Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I have to say no, since i'd rather have multi crew attack chopper like Apache, Cobra, Mi-24 or something similar. Mi-24 is already under development, Cobra if I recall correctly also or at least planned. Nothing about AH-64. Though probably there would be more more incentive and a chance for wider interest if the transport heli capaple of equipping some armamemnt rather than one that can take it provided that it is loaded into its cargo bay :) Pretty much like Huey or Hip today. F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all Link to post Share on other sites
Yuya6104 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Big helicopters huh ok give us the Mi-26 helicopter since it is biggest in the world and it can carry airliners. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKALdniCfyY 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Cytt0rak Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 YES FOR CH-53 (I'd love having one with air refueling capability). Doesn't really matter actually I just want to lift some weights. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
gospadin Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 CH-53 or CH-53E would be fabulous. A UH-60 would also be great, and allows for many variations. Genuinely not as interested in a chinook / puma or other euro medium/heavy lift helos. 1 My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E Link to post Share on other sites
Yurgon Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 And come that revolution, would you rather a great big helicopter came along to rescue you, or an Apache? Don't you know your Firefly quotes (opening of Episode 2, "The Train Job")? Wash: "Every man there go back inside, or we will blow a new crater in this little moon." [Crew gets rescued] Jayne: "Damn locals can't even tell a transport ship ain't got no guns on it." If someone pulls that stunt with a Chinook, I'm guessing it'll be quite impressive as well. :D 1 Link to post Share on other sites

98abaile Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I'd rather you spend your time on more interesting modules. Spending time on an LHA and large utility helicopters means we aren't getting cooler stuff sooner. Link to post Share on other sites
CharDee MacDennis Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I voted yes but buying a heavy lift helicopter module would be contingent on the module introducing some new functionality. For example i bought the Mirage 2000 and was very pleased with it; however i'm not at all tempted to buy the Mirage III as it brings little to nothing new to the table. If a heavy lift helicopter is just an MI-8 without weapons and desk fans then i'm not going to be motivated to buy it. Some ideas i read in this thread that would convince me to go in on a module are aerial refueling, underway replenishment in the CH-46, Attack Chinook :D or any major change to the way internal cargo is managed.

adonai Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Yeeesssss!! This can be a perfect avenue to begin fleshing out more support roles in DCS, which technically, is a big part of "Combat", and one area I think is quite overlooked by DCS as a combat platform. Plus, the 53E is a great analog to our in game mi8, albeit without direct action capability. Overall, i think investing into the logistics and support systems that would make the stallion fun to fly and challenging in game could go a long ways towards opening up alot of different aircraft types that aren't necessarily fast movers, which can attract a broader audience of people into DCS and really solidly this platform as the premier name in flight simulation. Long winded response yes, just my 2 cents :) Link to post Share on other sites
frixon28 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Maybe its just me, but after the Harrier and Mirage 3, I really just hope RAZBAM will put in some unique jets, like the A-7 instead of some whirlybirds. But thats just me. Link to post Share on other sites
Angelthunder Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Voted Yes.By the time Razbam does get to making their first ever helicopter.Belsimteks UH-1 Huey & Mi-8 Hip should already have fully modeled infantry,muti-crew door gunners and other mission type scenarios by then.By the way,i want the CH-53 Super Stallion for the Harrier and the LHD ship.It's always been on my wishlist of big helicopters that i wanted to see fully modeled.Other helos on my wishlist that i want in DCS include the OH-6 Cayuse,AH-64 Apache,CH-21 Shawnee/Flying Bananna,CH-37 Mojave,UH-12 Raven & maybe the H-43 Huskie.

Call911 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 (edited) Look @ all the Afganistan ops that had the Chinook, and a Sea Stallion or which ever the one is that was in the first part of Transformers. Can just picture it now seeing guys trying mid air refuel that thing.:music_whistling::lol::pilotfly: This.. Edited October 22, 2016 by Call911 Link to post Share on other sites
flyingscotsman Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 CH-53 For me, still in service with the Marines, in fact about to be upgraded and get even bigger. Has been in CSAR role for years, See the number of Medal Of Honour medals have been earned in it. So yes it did/does do combat, Ask any Helo pilot from Iraq, Afghanistan etc, they get shot at....that's combat. I second most of Angelthunders list. Nice to see so many people want the Mojave.

Kaszub Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 At this rate..i think there is a genuine interest for big rotary wing haulers... I voted yes, but I think as probably many of you, the priority is to finish the current projects and add more adversaries for incoming modules, like late version of MiG-23 for Mirage2000C, "clickable" MiG-29 for F-14 and F/A-18. Maybe even early version of Su-27 if it's possible. If nothing will be done, in two years, it's going to be "BLUFOR all the way!" situation on the servers. Link to post Share on other sites
Orange Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I think Sea King definitely should be the next big helicopter Link to post Share on other sites
some1 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 At this rate..i think there is a genuine interest for big rotary wing haulers... I think there will be a genuine interest for whatever you decide to make for DCS, that doesn't mean a big choppa is the most anticipated or cost-effective DCS addon (sales versus complexity).

Teldja Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I voted yes ! More Helicopters, more options, is always good in my books. I would like to fly the Puma ! :) Link to post Share on other sites
