One it hits Steam I'll get it that's for sure. Not much you can do with it but a more modern "sport" jet would do good.

I think the main reason I don't fly Red is that you get shot to hell against Blue, or maybe the game didn't like me. Still have memories of taking off in SoCal and bushwacked by some Eagles and was like "Never again"

I could be wrong but I think until the 90s? Or maybe somebody in the USAF can confirm if they're still in the inventory but with stuff like Thermobaric warheads (which I think was the evolution of FAEs) they're pretty much extinct? I mean most of the development I've seen was smart warheads and the like, and Thermobaric weapons just around of some kind of variety. Again I could be wrong but overall in even Afghanistan the only thing remotely close was White Phosphorous fired from artillery but no FAEs or the like.

I really can't say much more personally about FAEs as I just don't use them in any missions (HE has always worked for me ) so no help from me. I can get in the seat sometime but overall again... HE works :)

DCS Skinning Guide: -Refined some text - Added some stuff about the Arguments slider - Grammar fixes.

I think the rare times I actually flew the A-7 as a DACT it wasn't too bad. Given the time period though it was sort of like nothing impressive. Then again it's been so long as well.

Yeah it blows monkey nuts that Don Color is down (permanently?) as that's THE site to get colorschemes from...

I'll buy it when it comes out in a few years.

Same, full merged with some DLCs.

That'll be in a decade man

Yeah I've noticed the Super can sometimes be a bit more finicky with certain decks so unfortunately that's just beyond my control.

Yeah but as soon as you make a globe everybody wants to go everywhere and given the issues with one area it'll be in the next century (even at the FSX level so I think for a "globe" would be FSX.. But as a shooter? Yeah I'd like that given the fidelity of the DCS terrain mapping, but that's another issue then you get into various areas such as basic gun mods and so on. Overall with the dearth of aircraft able to be brought in it's just a bigger issue rather than just hoping. Then I'd stop playing Arma and go for DCS as I can do what I like, go flying and if I feel like clearing buildings, etc. then it'd be great. But overall it's just not feasible at the current moment in my mind.

That's cool I do a lot of (admittedly rare) mountain warfare training in the Caucascus as it's the only thing I got to play in the mountains with as far as being in the pilot's seat.

Yeah like Stick and Fubar512 said it's not so much a jet issue but a deck issue. Land on a normal runway and taxi you'll see that the jet doesn't "lean" as you say. Decks are a hit and miss as far as collision LODs and such so that's going to happen like they say.

That's true but I don't think I'll be taking off from there much, Nellis baby

Yeah I think my point came off wrong so yeah I'm also with Dave, its great their modelling it but seriously more area would be nice.

It'd be cool if i was like Arma 3, but since it's not... Though I have been through the airport in FSX and in real life, Nellis was far more interesting...

Man it's been a long time.... trapped with the E model and... I don't think it's a defect, more or less you coming in maybe hard or something? Other than that looks fairly normal to me and sorry for the delay got caught up in other stuff.

No it doesn't, as Steam handles it's own way or they would specify it too.

Improved the DCS Skinning Guide some more, fleshed it out.

Precioussssss needsssss a Whiskey for Precioussssss

Given that I land "like an air force pilot" (said by a guy from India no less) I've never had that issue with any of them. May be something but I never noticed any wheel bend, but... in fairness I rarely taxi and just escape. I'll do a trap and see if I can't see it on my end.

http://562.50megs.com/562nd/DCSSkinningGuide.pdf Not finished per se but overall still WIP, I just have a bit much to do and working on a manual or skinning for DCS is not a priority right now. It's still rough but overall can help, somewhat.

Yeah it does help, I'd still buy NTTR just so I can fly somewhere else other than the Black Sea Region.
