One of the planned air-to-air weapons for the Early Access will be the AIM-7 Sparrow. In addition to the M version, we also plan the F and H versions. While still very much work-in-progress, the AIM-7 SMS page is taking shape and some of the basic HUD symbology. Still Sparrow work to do on radar integration, along with FLOOD and HOJ modes.

Work on the caution and advisory system continues with good progress; this has been a very complex and time-intensive undertaking. Other areas being worked on are the bombing HUD modes, A/A radar, INS waypoint system, RWR, and countermeasures.

There have been a lot of questions regarding what sensors and weapons will be available at the launch of the early access DCS: F/A-18C Hornet. This decision is based on balancing a great, first experience, while getting quickly into the hands of those prefer early access adoption. We realize that early access is not for everyone, but for many, it is. If you prefer a completed product, we ask that you wait for the final release. Take that time to monitor previews and early access reports to make an informed purchase.

We believe that starting with the more “simple” systems at early access roll-out allows a more shallow learning curve at the start. By then adding new systems gradually, it introduces the Hornet’s sensors and weapons in a more structured manner… much like what a real Hornet pilot goes through when learning the aircraft. This also allows us more time to fully develop the more complex systems in a way that delivers the most realistic experience possible.

Note that this is all very much subject to change for our mid-2000s F/A-18C USN Hornet.

A/A radar with RWS, STT, and ACM modes

Jj 1.5.x. Hlavně na 104. serveru. Když už člověk překousne ty brutální lagy, to že AA střely maj svoji hlavu a dělají si co chtějí, zvlášt u strojů sovětské provience ( holt jsem v tomhle zmlsanej BMSkem, kde třeba R77 patří k tomu top ) a tak nějak na tu jejich hru přistoupí, začne zas blbnout tohle. Fakt se na to patří v....t a lozit max. do těch 15ctek a Saberů kde se člověk může spolehnout max. na svuj zrak a pilotní (ne)dovednosti.

Co se týče Horneta, slušná vybava, vlastně všechno co jsem tak +- očekával ( jen koukám,kde je Dčkový Maverick ). Druhá věc, vzhledem k tomu jak ta early acces verze bude ořezaná, těžko odhadovat, kdy se na ten zbytek dostane.

** Heatblur is proud to announce the addition of a FREE for all AI J-35 Draken for DCS World!!! **

As part of our commitment to fill our products to the brim with content and value that increases your immersion both in Singleplayer and Multiplayer and give you a variety of options for authentic mission creation, the J-35 Draken will be the first major addition by Heatblur for DCS AJS 37 Viggen!

The art team has been busy with recreating this classic aircraft to the quality you expect of Heatblur. We’ve approached the creation of this project in the same way as we approach the creation of our full fidelity, flyable modules - and have utilized all of our latest techniques in achieving a perfect reproduction of the Draken’s iconic shape and characteristics.

Our draken will include authentic weaponry and will span across various eras and variants of the aircraft. As an AI aircraft, it will be a perfect addition to missions and campaigns, and serve as an immersive escort or authentic opponent for Heatblur and community mission content. Once it is complete, it will be available across all maps and versions of DCS as part of the base DCS World game regardless of whether you own the AJS 37 or not!

The Saab 35 Draken ("Dragon") is a single-engine supersonic fighter from the 2nd generation. Its first maiden flight was way back in October 1955, and it has been operated by countries across Europe - including Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Austria.

For now, the inclusion of the Draken is limited to an AI aircraft; but we have always considered the Draken to be a prime addition to our high fidelity roadmap, and hope to make it a reality at some point!

Much needed for "The Widowmaker"

DCS World: AV-8B N/A Harrier II - Wild Weasel

I feel the need, The need for SEAD.

A special thank you to Eagle Dynamics and RAZBAM for the early access to the Harrier II module.

It’s a small thing, but some of the art for the HUD camera control panel and the UFC has been cleaned up a bit. As these portions of the cockpit are often in your face, it’s pretty important to get these looking as good as possible.

Also, we have had to move the Mk-77 to the post-Early Access release list for weapons. Not only will the Mk-77 require a new object and napalm effect, but an all new warhead type needs to be created (quite different than HE and pen-aid warheads) and all units and objects will need to be updated to account for this all, new weapon type. As you might imagine, it's going to be a lot of work to support this.

/u/DCS_Sport wanted to tell us something. We'd like to reply the only way we know how.
