I will believe it when I can buy it in the next few years.

RAZBAM has ceased being relevant in FSX and DCS. They've announced so much, and yet delivered nothing for many years.

[+Dave 2,318]

They are still doing stuff for FSX, but DCS is non existent.

The last release/update has been years. They keep saying they are TacPacking the A-7s, but so far nothing released, save for some screen shots that dont prove a thing.

My only curious question is how does it take so long even without using sensitive information? I mean before the Super Hornet project was nixed I was looking at less than a month to get a flyable prototype (the AI could fly it at least reasonably well) working.  And even then back on SimHQ I predicted an FC level version with six months (man was I wrong, in a good way).  So yeah okay, ED hasn't been much help given the lack of documentation but overall... I figured if we kept on trucking as they were, within two months we probably would have at least the E and F in a flyable condition to include basic weapons use and texture work done (even with a small or large list of basic liveries).  So... Granted yeah okay, they got other things going but overall even that two week period we were killing it easy.  So I don't see how it's so difficult.

It's very hard to finish something when you don't work on it.

Fair enough, and in my case (or team's case rather) when you got morons offering you to send classified data makes it real hard to move forward.  I mean seriously do they think it's "cool' to do so? But anyway yeah, had that not happened it would have been in full swing.

Eric,

 

I don't think that was pointed at you, but more directly at RAZBAM & ED.

I know, but what happened is hard to wash off and hard to forget as well.

 

But otherwise it'd be great if more established groups get to workin, I mean I have a thing for the A-7 (USAF or USN) in a small way as well as the Intruder, but as said, promises but no action, and kinda leaves us hanging.
