+streakeagle Posted March 7, 2021 Posted March 7, 2021 The efforts of modders are bringing DCS World closer to being able to replace SF2 as the best simulation of the Vietnam air war. The free A-4E Skyhawk mod I posted about earlier has continued to improve. It now has an accurate external flight model, supports basic radio operation, and can perform mid-air refueling as well as having 100% compatibility with carrier operations. Some of the other mods are not as ambitious and rely on old tricks like borrowing Flaming Cliffs functionality, but still look quite impressive. Right now, anyone can download the free A-4E and join the Vietnam server for some great missions. If you own the modules you can also fly the F-5E, UH-1, C-101 (standing in for A-37 Dragonfly), P-51D, and P-47D (both props standing in for the A-1 Skyraider). Previously the MiG-21, MiG-19, and MiG-15 were available, but the host decided to get rid of the PvP option as he much prefers a co-op environment. Take a look at what is currently possible: 4 Quote
