+streakeagle 871 Posted December 20, 2018 It has been confirmed for awhile. Belsimtek's F-4 was bumped to the back of the bus to focus on ED's preference for the F-16. For my entire PC/internet life, F4 has meant a hardcore sim for the the F-16. Belsimtek reveals screenshots of an F-4E that is pretty much exactly what I have wanted all these years, and its development is stopped to make way for another F-16. If it wasn't for TK/Third Wire, I would have been stuck playing Jane's Fighters Anthology and Jane's USAF up to now to be able to enjoy the F-4 in a realistic combat environment. Cheers to TK for keeping me entertained for a decade before DCS World started on the path of my ideal sim: a hardcore F-4/MiG-21 air combat study simulator. DCS World has actually bettered my vision by simultaneously providing both a survey sim and study sim of almost the entire flyable aircraft library with some of the most famous historical air-to-air matchups of all time. I would greatly appreciate it if they could just the the F-4 done before I die. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, the fervent bashing gets to be a bit much at times. Not really interested in the F-16, I feel like there is Falcon 4.0 for that. Also, to me it seems like it will be out of place as an actual flyable in the DCS universe, may be because there has been no dedicated A/G radar or sensors in the game for so long.

I've yet to get my teeth into DCS so not really in the loop, but wasn't a2g radar supposed to becoming with the Hornet module? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe so, they are updating the Latrin code as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MigBuster 2,884 Posted December 23, 2018 The last update mentioned it was being worked on still for the Hornet. The 3rd party Viggen has some kind of AG radar implementation I understand but I don't have that so not sure. Thinking that any F-16 will be released in a pre-alpha Early Access state thus might advise waiting a few years. Could get it just to review it but not really that keen - at least other modules have new things to learn - like the F-4E <cough>. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+streakeagle 871 Posted December 27, 2018 As DCS World is almost exclusively the sim that I fly and SimHQ has nothing but endless drivel about how bad DCS is, I have no use for SimHQ. At one time it was the place to go for Jane's USAF until Gulf Knight hijacked that function with a pay-to-be-a-member website. It was also the place to go for Strike Fighters Project 1 until the anti-fanboi's drove TK away leading to the rise of Third Wire's forum for official tech support and CombatAce for everything else. I like a lot of the long-time SimHQ members, but the site has been a waste of time for me for quite a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
