badger66 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Yeah , the F-105 float's my boat big time . Big dirty fast mud mover . Don't know how well it really would stand up in a modern day battlefield ..... as its fairly outdated now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I would LOVE an F-105D in DCS. One of my favorite aircraft. Thud Ridge is still required reading for USAF officers I'm told. As for how it would stand up in a modern battlefield it's hard to say, it is still one of the fastest aircraft at sea level and its bomb load is pretty impressive. Aiming those bombs is certainly a challenge but you can wreck a pretty large area with a 4 ship flight of F-105s. No pesky back end multiseat stuff to work out either unlike the F-15E or F-111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

komemiute Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Nothing beats the intruder ! Gimme an A6 Amen, Brother Mainstay. I could even probably erase all the other modules and just grind hours over hours on that beast. No matter if it's the A, the B or *whatever*... Bring back the Navy one and only true bomber...

frogger Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I personally would love to see a system built into a modern simulator that requires the use of a license system. for eg: start with a trainer aircraft with no weapons systems and have to pass certain missions to unlock more advanced aircraft. i only free fly and do formation flying these days and i personally haven't found a more stable multiplayer system then lomac. i fly from Australia with people in Greece and despite having 500 ping we can fly with in inches of each other without having spikes causing crashes. fsx however its like someone is dangling there aircraft on a string and bouncing it up and down. it will be awesome the day comes when my friend who likes to fly airliners can load up his KC10 and fly around over dcsw and then we can rock up with our jets and he could switch to the rear boom view and control it while guiding us over the mic's :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X93355 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) Frog, I like the sound of that. It would be like an aircraft conversion course. BeachAv8r - I would love to see the A4 and the A6 or even a prowler. I think the Vietnam era was enough to be more reliant on skills than technology but also still fast jets, mud movers, sead, carrier landings and refuelling etc. Would be mint. Flight of the intruder - all the way!

BadK Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 (edited) I don't know why, but the F-105 does something for me. Maybe the name Thunderchief excites me? Regardless it is an awesome aircraft. Now that baby makes me want some alone time! I'm sure there will be someone within the year to grasp the kickstarter for the Vietnam era. There should be a lot of material out there to support the level of detail on the level of the A-10C also. + 1000 When this happens, I will probably say goodbye to the outside world! I already daydream about weasel missions in the F-105G. SAM hunts are where the real action is.

Tengah Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) Its a must for DCS to have 105D, F and G variants. In my humble opinion :D Anyone wanting inspiration: Thud Ridge, Jack Broughton (as mentioned above), 100 Missions North by Ken Bell (dec) and Ed Rasimus's When Thunder Rolled and even his later book Palace Cobra. I have Dash-1's and various USAF paperwork on the 105 out the ying yang for anyone who wants to start one off for DCS and £500 (GBP) to the first Vietnam Theatre Kickstart program. Ron, pls, may we have a 105? :) Edited October 17, 2013 by Tengah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadK Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 That's impressive, Prowler. Hoping that learning DCS is going well for you guys. For me, it's really enjoyable to sit back and watch this thing (DCS World, and 3rd Party content, etc.) take shape. I don't mind waiting for this one bit.
