Very true unfortunately Casino Royale intro is my ring tone...............to much effort to change it really.

They are easily my top 2

There was but no idea if anyone still does it.......................you might need a time machine to go back 10 years.............. Buddy lasing? AFAIK only the A-10C module has this type of fidelity with the Litening pod it carries............but that's Falcon BMS level avionics and no idea if you can do it for other A-10Cs...........in single player you can pick up ground based lasers from troops after setting the laser codes etc....see the massive manual.

Yes DCS is multiplayer...........and there are squadrons out there........you want FC3 level jets though.

There are the Su-30s

Is that on the landing Su-34 at 00:22?

Nice............would report any Bugs ASAP..............after the main update comes out there may be less emphasis to fix them.

Gets up close to the Su-25s and those FAB gravity bombs........wonder if they are Su-25SM3. You would expect a high level of self defence capability so Su-30/ advanced SAMs & plenty of ground troop all likely.

When Matt Wagner, producer for Eagle Dynamics, asked me if I’d be interested in doing some play testing for some of the forthcoming DCS World content, I excitedly proclaimed my enthusiasm before really stopping to think about it. In the back of my brain however, my Spidey sense was tingling. It wasn’t until later, sitting in front of my monitor, reading the briefing that I remembered. Valhalla! How could I forget?! Matt Wagner and Hornit’s signature campaign for Jane’s F/A-18. It was a project squarely in line with Matt’s capabilities as one of the designers of Jane’s F/A-18. With unprecedented realism and difficulty – Valhalla kicked my ass. I’m pretty sure I can still feel the knots in my shoulders from the tension of trying to dodge Russian SAMs and fighters, tanking, and trapping aboard the carrier (at night). *Shudder* So, a realistic DCS World Red Flag campaign huh? I should have just agreed to be blindfolded and kicked in the nuts (repeatedly). The Red Flag campaign will come in two flavors with both A-10C and F-15C mission sets.Wags collaborated with renowned author Steve Davies (yes –that Steve Davies!) to add authenticity to the DCS Red Flag experience. Steve crafted the briefings and additional assistance was garnered from an F-15 pilot with actual Red Flag experience............. http://www.mudspike.com/dcs-world-2-a-10c-red-flag-campaign/

Two seat Jet trainer aircraft L-39C is intended for basic and advanced pilot training in visual and instrument flight rules weather conditions, day and night and also for combat use against air and ground targets. Its development started in the middle 60s of the last century by the Czech “Aero Vodochody”. In the 70s the aircraft has entered service and is still in the operational use in over 30 countries worldwide. The DCS L-39C is the most accurate computer simulation of this aircraft among flight simulators available for PC. The aircraft systems, engine and weapons have been simulated in full. The professional flight model has been developed. All the real procedures are possible in two interactive cockpits. Highly detailed and accurate model of the aircraft will make you feel the unforgettable sense of flying the famous “flying school desk”, which opened the way to the sky to thousands of air forces pilots worldwide. Key Features of the DCS: L-39 Albatros: Professional Flight Model that accurately mimics the performance and flight characteristics of this legendary trainer Highly detailed, six-degrees-of-freedom (6 DOF) cockpit Interact with cockpit controls with your mouse Fully modelled weapon system Accurate L-39C model with correct country markings Detailed modelling of the L-39 instruments, weapons, engine, radios, fuel, electrical and hydraulic systems Fly from either the front seat or back seat Planned cooperative multiplayer in the same aircraft (not available at release) Two versions of aircraft: L-39C that will be available in the initial beta and L-39ZA that will be later http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/modules/albatros/

Gangbang style or whatever kept Skyfall from the top spot if I remember correctly. Shame really there have been some great tracks over the years

Sam Smith's Writing's On The Wall has made history by becoming the first Bond theme to reach number one in the UK. The track achieved combined chart sales and streams of 70,000 copies - 13,000 ahead of its closest competitor, Justin Bieber's What Do You Mean? The previous highest-charting Bond themes were Adele's Skyfall and Duran Duran's View To A Kill, which both reached number two. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-34425299

What drivers are you using?

Radar keys are the same so you may need to check your settings http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2343 http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_061a.html Yeah dont turn with MiG-17s.......basic BFM really Your radar wont look down in the early versions and the missiles are generally useless.........so fairly realistic if you dont know anything about it........although easier to employ them in this, especially AIM-4Ds!! If you fly low and straight...prepare to get shot down a lot......attacking guns head on also very risky but can be done.

http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2487387#post2487387 Dear all, What follows is a preliminary changelog of DCS World 1.5. Because 1.5 is being built from a new branch of our code, we cannot account for changes made in earlier branches. As such, we had to create much of this changelog based on memory and older bug tracking reports. Because of this and that we will probably be adding or modifying items, this changelog is very preliminary and subject to change during the Open Beta period. Also please note that we are still awaiting changelog items for most of the BST modules. As items are added or modified, they will be highlighted in red. As for the status of releasing the 1.5 Open Beta, we have good news: we created the 1.5 branch (release version) today. Just as soon as we complete smoke testing, we will release it. Sincerely, The Eagle Dynamics Team DCS World 1.5.0 Changelog General New unified executable. Separate executables are no longer used for the front end and simulation. New graphics engine with the following features: DirectX 11 Support, optimized for GPU rather than CPU, improved lighting and shadowing, and improved graphical effects like contrails, flares and missile trail smoke, improved water Improved VR support with Direct Display mode and VR front end GUI, but still very much work-in-progress until hardware reaches consumer release versions Corrected track synchronization errors Note: Once DCS World 1.5 is out of Open Beta, we will update the DCS World User Manual to reflect all of the following changes Main Menu Moved Options to icon at top of Main Menu. Moved Module Manager to icon at top of Main Menu Created Log-in / Log-out dialog at top of Main Menu New Login dialog with the possibility to stay logged in Options Changed System / Graphics “Scenes” to “Terrain Textures”.

USAF Aggressors are a special country that have all aircraft, helicopters, ships, and vehicles accessible to them. Added Fire at point task now has a quantity value allowing users to define the number of shots fired at the target. Changed All text boxes (Mission briefings, do script, etc) character limit has been increased to approx 16,000 characters. Adding aircraft to a group set to spawn on ramp now places the new aircraft at the closest available spot to the lead aircraft. Changed Triggered messages to now "stack" below currently displayed messages no longer over-writing a message that is currently being displayed. Added "Clearview" variable to triggered messages to use the old method of displaying messages. Added MANPAD units can now be transported via embarking actions like other infantry. (Side note currently you can't add them to a group with an existing embarking task, you have to create the group as you want it THEN create the embarking task if it contains a MANPAD) Fixed Bombs not producing a "shot" event. Unit.getPlayerName() is now functional on ground units and will return a player’s name if they are directly controlling the unit via Combined Arms. Many new countries have been added. These countries are not yet populated with units, although they have access to all static object and fortifications objects available, along with aircraft that are DCS modules. These countries include: Austria, Belarus, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, China, Croatia, Finland, Greece, Hungary, India, Iran, Iraq, Japan, Kazakhstan, North Korea, Pakistan, Poland, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, and USAF Aggressors. These countries are also added to the logbook with a few already populated with ranks and squadrons. Sound files triggered to play over a radio frequency now works correctly. Static ships will no longer only face east. They will respect the direction specified in the mission editor. Artificial Intelligence (AI) Aircraft use smarter holding point logic for landings AI planes now land in two-ships and can a make straight approach even if starting velocity is too high at landing IP.

AI using cranks after BVR shots to extend F and A poles Improved AI weapon system logic. AIs will more accurately estimate AAM percentage chance of kill (Pk). This is intended to prevent situations where missiles bled energy pursuing targets with low Pk. Improved AI logic of follow-on missile (AIM-120B/C, R-27 series, AIM-7, AIM-54 and R-33) shot if it determines the prior shot has been trashed Added antiship task to Su-17, Su-25 and MiG-27 4 v 2 ACM tactics have been improved. Both elements will now take part in the fight AI formations will now make altitude changes more smoothly, thus allowing with wingmen to more easily stay in formation Cruise missiles have much better terrain following guidance now Improved AI use of JDAMs. AI can now drop bombs on multiple targets on a single pass. Fixed Patriot so it now re-arms if near a warehouse Changed M-109 reload time to be less insane. Was 7000 seconds, now 3600 seconds.

France has executed its first air strike against positions of the so-called Islamic State forces (ISIS / ISIL / Daech) in Syria, French president Francois Hollande announced on the morning of Sunday 27 September 2015. Five Dassault Rafale jet were involved, plus one C-135 tanker and one Atlantique 2 intelligence aircaft. The air strike was done after French aircraft had made several reconnaissance flight of Syria during the past week. Since 2014 French air force and navy aircraft have been involved in operations against ISIS, but until September focused on Iraq only. Initially the French contingency only operated from the United Arab Emirates, Al Dhafra Airbase, since September 2014. When the contribution of Mirage 2000Ds was announced in Mid-November, they were positioned on an airbase in Jordan. The French name for the entire contribution to Operation Inherent Resolve is opration Chammal. http://airheadsfly.com/2015/09/27/first-french-air-strike-targets-syria/

FINAL GOODBYE FOR US NAVY BUCKEYE After 56 years of service, it’s goodbye to the North American Rockwell T-2 Buckeye in US Navy service on Friday 25 September. The jet will undertake its final flight from Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Md. The Buckeye was retired from training student pilots in 2008 already, being replaced by the Boeing T-45 Goshawk. A small number remained in service at Patuxent River as chase aircraft for aircraft and weapons testing. Two C-38 Courier business jets replace these jets. The Buckeye first flew in 1958, with other customer being Greece and Venezuela. A total of 273 were built in the end. http://airheadsfly.com/2015/09/25/final-goodbye-for-us-navy-buckeye/
