VEAO Q&A Ha1112 Buchon http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=125149 In this thread feel free to ask any questions you have regarding this module and myself and the rest of the VEAO team will do our best to answer them as best we can. To cover a few commonly asked questions from the warbirds thread : • No ETA yet • The Buchon will have EFM to PFM standards • Full ASM • Our intention is to do the Spanish airforce variant • Potential for the converted Bf109 lookalike akin to those at IWM Duxford One of the primary questions that we are always being asked is why the Buchon rather than a real Bf109? Well there are a few reasons, one major one is that we can lay our hands on several real airworthy Buchon’s, we have access to pilots who have flown them, to detailed mechanical information (that is in English!). The engine is something that we also have ready access to. It is our philosophy that all of our modules will be completed to military specification. With that in mind having access to airworthy aircraft is very beneficial to us. That’s not to say that in the future we wouldn’t travel for access or do aircraft where we only have access to statics, but for our initial wave of releases it’s something that we had to consider. If you guys have any questions for us then this is the place for you! I can’t promise that we will answer all of them (usual NDA stuff applies etc etc) but we will certainly try! Keep an eye out for the Eye Candy thread and the Dev Diary not only for this aircraft but for the other warbirds as well! All the best Pman

F-86F Sabre on July http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=125117 DCS: F-86F SABRE TAKING OFF IN JULY 2014 DUXFORD, UK, May 29th, 2014 –The Fighter Collection and Eagle Dynamics in cooperation with Belsimtek to release DCS: F-86F Sabre as a digital download in July 2014 The North American F-86F Sabre was the most capable western fighter of the early- to mid-1950s. This swept wing, single engine jet was the most important western aircraft of the Korean War and often tangled with Russian-made MiG-15s over the infamous “MiG Alley”. It was a hard struggle not only for the Korean sky, but also between two excellent aircraft builders of the East and West. In addition to its primary role as an air-to-air fighter, the Sabre could also carry bombs and air-to-ground rockets to attack ground targets. The Belsimtek simulation of the Sabre is by far the most authentic recreation of this famous warbird to date. Feel what is to fly the Sabre with a professional level flight model, an interactive cockpit, fully functional weapons, a detailed damage model and a richly detailed aircraft. Experience the strengths and weaknesses of the Sabre in combat and find out why seasoned fighter pilots often look back at the Sabre as the most enjoyable aircraft they ever flew. As part of DCS World, fly the F-86F Sabre in a fully realized combat environment with working weapon systems and capable air and ground threats. Teaser video: Key Features of the DCS: F-86F Sabre: • Unmatched flight physics that allow you to truly feel what it's like to fly this legend • Highly detailed six-degrees-of-freedom cockpit • Interact with cockpit controls with your mouse • Fully modelled weapon system • Accurate F-86F Sabre model, squadron markings, and weapons. • Detailed modelling of the F-86F Sabre instruments, weapons, engine, radios, fuel, electrical and hydraulic systems • Battle the MiG-15, the Sabre’s nemesis over Korea.

F-100D Update http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2056029&postcount=125 3D Cockpit: Work on this has been pretty much minimal due to availible time for a while. Other than Limited time, I also wanted to study and experiment with several methods to aid in building the cockpit. Once Time allows I will begin using these methods in a trial basis in a separate 3D scene before moving them to the F-100D Cockpit Scene. Like I've stated before, Cockpits arent my thing, I'm used to building external meshes. So I'm having to learn and re-evaluate things as I do them. In December I had started re-building over the external shape, (side panels, floorboards etc), The Methods I'm studying will be used to re-build the canopy frame, canopy, and adding details to the cockpit once it's basic shape is completed. Once that's all done and Texturing is finished, I will resume work on the panels, switches, gauges, and their animations. Once the cockpit is in a basic functional state (All gauges/switches animated and imported to DCS), It will be passed onto the system coders to integrate systems. While Systems are being coded, I will continue to Building up the details in the cockpit and also resume external Mesh. External Mesh: Still havent 100% decided if I want to continue using the one we licensed or start dedicating the time to building up from scratch (which I had started to reference using XSections in Max). I've also been planning/working on Improved Afterburner Effects for Vietnam Era Afterburners, which I will move into testing sometime in the next 2 months. AI Only/MIG-21 Adversary Release?: I'd like to do it, If I can get time to finalize the external mesh and stuff, But it's not 100% my decision. External mesh needs some work and I need to modify the Pylon Permissions some more, as well as Gear/SFM for AI. If Anything I'll put whatever free time I have in the next few weeks on getting the External Module Ready for that just in case. __________________
