QuiGon Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 There was a screenshot of the P-47 in a newsletter some months ago, which AFAIK has also been taken on the Channel Map. Here it is: 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!

DD_Fenrir Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 The harbour area and town is Ramsgate: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Ramsgate/@51.3451403,1.3885536,13.22z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47d94cd3255c6b75:0x579401fdfa599855!8m2!3d51.335545!4d1.419895 Given the Concrete runway shown at Manston that kind of sets the date as 1944; a product of Manston's increasing use as the first point of safe let down for ailing allied aircraft damaged or low on fuel from attacking Germany and the low countries, this "crash" runway - some twice the length and 3 times the width of a standard runway - was commissioned in 1943 and completed in April of '44. Prior to that Manston was a large grass airfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoYo Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) Will it include part of DCS Normandy map? Im confused ..... It will support missions and campaigns between the late 1930s and 1945, we will have more details in our news letter today. thanks Planes from 1930-1941? Where are there?

xvii-Dietrich Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 A Channel map for late war piston fighters, why ? Operation Steinbock Intercepting V-1s. But need to wait for the V-1 in DCS WWII assets. Mosquito cross-channel raids pre-Normandy Training area for pilots before deploying to the continent Jabo hit-and-run raids against SE-England (e.g. Operation Giesla) And maybe, they are thinking ahead to releasing earlier-era aircraft (thus, DCS Battle-of-Britain)?

Christophe D Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 "Operation Steinbock" Are the Do-217 and the He-177 planned ? "Intercepting V-1s." Is the Tempest planned ? Basically, we have not the planes for such a period and also those combats were rather limited. "they are thinking ahead to releasing earlier-era aircraft (thus, DCS Battle-of-Britain)?" What a good idea, this would be totally new, never done in any flight sim ! So, we have already "study" aircrafts, now this is a "study" map.

SpitFlyer Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 "Channel Map" "Will include Manston Detling Hawkinge Lympne" "It will support missions and campaigns between the late 1930s and 1945, we will have more details in our news letter today." ... and STILL no mention of Biggin Hill! Give me the tools and I'll volunteer to do it myself (complete with roller-coaster runway :sorcerer: ). I saw mention of it 5 or 6 weeks ago - speculation or what - but it was inconclusive. Is somebody working on it and just keeping it as a surprise? How can you have a WWII Simulation without Biggin Hill ? Anyway, the latest NEWS bulletin was good news - I look forward to to getting my hands on some of the news stuff. Thanks ED for a great ... erm ... product/experience/occupation!

Foul Ole Ron Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Haven't seen it mentioned so I'm guessing no but is London on the map? No London I think I saw mentioned in another thread. Map size limitations meant other stuff would have had to be dropped and they felt the map balance was better without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing that actually bothers me on this; for a 1930(ish)-1945(ish) mission setting they're sure missing some important places like the Scheldt estuary..
