Come da newsletter ED cito quanto pubblicato oggi!

DCS: F-16C Update

As mentioned in our yearly wrap up, one of our biggest projects for this year is the legendary F-16C Fighting Falcon, also called the Viper. In parallel with the Hornet, we already have a sub-team working on the Viper that includes programmers who have completed their Hornet tasks. Much of their focus is currently on the flight model, Flight Control System (FLCS), cockpit and the external model. Using much of what we learned with the Hornet, progress has been good, and is in no way slowing down Hornet completion.

As we pour the concrete, we can start to pass along some of our plans. Please remember they are plans, not timeline promises.

Our Viper will be an F-16C with the Common Configuration Implementation Program (CCIP) upgrade. We feel this to be the most versatile version of the F-16 with capabilities for SEAD, precision attack, close air support, anti-ship, and of course air-to-air. We will be taking great care though to develop a very accurate simulation of the F-16C Block 50 operated by the United States Air Force and Air National Guard circa 2007.

Core systems of our F-16C include:

F-110-GE-129 turbofan engine
AN/APG-68(V)5 multi-mode radar
AN/ALR-56M Radar Warning Receiver
AN/ALQ-131/184 ECM pods
CCIP (Common Configuration Implementation Program) update
ALE-47 countermeasure system
This will be a massive project, so we will separate it into two phases: Phase 1 Early Access release and then Phase 2 Product Sustainment.

Phase 1 Early Access Release:

Color Multifunction Display (CMFD) symbology, Horizontal Situation Display (HSD) format, and Head-up Display (HUD) symbology
Digitally TACAN and Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator (EHSI)
BDU-33, BDU-50LD/HD, Mk-82LDGP, Mk-82AIR, Mk-84LDGP, BLU-109/B, CBU-87 CEM, and CBU-97 SFW unguided bombs
2.75” rockets LAU-68 and LAU-131
Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS)
AIM-9L/M/P/X Sidewinder
AIM-120B/C AMRAAM
M61A1 20mm cannon
Phase 2 Product Sustainment:

Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS)
Link 16 Data Link
AGM-65D/G/H/K Maverick
AGM-88C HARM
AN/ASQ-213 HARM Targeting System (HTS)
Sniper XR Advanced Targeting Pod
GBU-10, GBU-12, GBU-24A/B laser-guided bombs
BRU-57/A Smart Rack
CBU-103 CEM and CBU-105 SFW Inertially Aided Munitions (IAM)
GBU-31/A, GBU-32, and GBU-38/B JDAM
AGM-154/A and /B JSOW
AGM-158/A JASSM
Integration of the JHMCS with the HARM Targeting System (HTS), Link 16, and AIFF
ALE-50 towed decoy
As this project accelerates, we will be providing updates to keep you abreast of our progress to this much awaited addition to DCS World.

Sapete cosa c'è di nuovo?
All'improvviso m'è venuta una voglia di tornare in ufficio...

Per Vs. informazione, in riferimento all'ultima newsletter della ED, il preordine del modulo in oggetto sarà disponibile a partire dal 24/05/2019 (e non il 22/05/2019, cioè oggi).

Semplicemente, si sono sbagliati a scrivere la data.

No, non avevano il trailer pronto.

Inoltre: altra mazzata, non montera' neanche gli sparrow.

We will be taking great care though to develop a very accurate simulation of the F-16C Block 50 operated by the United States Air Force and Air National Guard circa 2007.

For this project, we are striving to create a a very authentic simulation of this particular aircraft at a specific point in time. We have no desire to create a Frankenstein's Monster that combines multiple F-16C versions from different time periods.

Core systems of our F-16C include:
F-110-GE-129 turbofan engine
AN/APG-68(V)5 multi-mode radar
AN/ALR-56M Radar Warning Receiver
AN/ALQ-131/184 ECM pods

Phase 1 Early Access Release:
Color Multifunction Display (CMFD) symbology, Horizontal Situation Display (HSD) format, and Head-up Display (HUD) symbology
Digitally TACAN and Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator (EHSI)
RWS, SAM, TWS and ACM A/A radar modes
BDU-33, BDU-50LD/HD, Mk-82LDGP, Mk-82AIR, Mk-84LDGP, CBU-87 CEM, and CBU-97 SFW unguided bombs
2.75” rockets LAU-68 and LAU-131
Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS)
AIM-9L/M/P/X Sidewinder
AIM-120B/C AMRAAM
M61A1 20mm cannon

First skin will be the 55th FS at Shaw AFB.

Phase 2 Product Sustainment:
Multifunctional Information Distribution System (MIDS)
Link 16 Data Link
A/G radar modes
AGM-65D/G/H/K Maverick
AGM-88C HARM
AN/ASQ-213 HARM Targeting System (HTS)
AN/AAQ-28(V) LITENING targeting pod
GBU-10, GBU-12, GBU-24A/B laser-guided bombs
BRU-57/A Smart Rack
CBU-103 CEM and CBU-105 SFW Inertially Aided Munitions (IAM)
GBU-31/A and GBU-38/B JDAM
AGM-154A and AGM-154B JSOW

Dal modello 3d esterno sembra di essere tornati alla 1.5

Dal modello 3d esterno sembra di essere tornati alla 1.5

Il modello esterno più dettagliato verrà implementato in seguito, nel trailer è presente il modello 3d attuale.

 

[Falcon]

new map new map new map!!!

 

[Djmitri]

Direi proprio che quella mappa li è la Siria... 

 

[Harley]

Già lo amo.  [ilota]

 

[Jackal]

Ora sì che si comincia a fare finalmente sul serio.
E voglio proprio vedere com'è il modello di volo di quest'uccellino.

Non so perchè ma a me il 16 stuzzica più del 18... Forse perchè fin da bambino l'ho sempre visto ad Aviano... Comunque non vedo l'ora che esca.

Idem, ma per quanto mi riguarda la colpa è stata del film Iron Eagle che avrò visto tipo 724489 volte quando ero ragazzino (insieme a Top Gun). Il 18 infatti neanche l'ho preso perché sapevo che avrei pre-acquistato il 16.

 

[Djmitri]

Anchio lo aspetto in gloria, sarà anche che lo abbiamo anche noi italiani e lo sento più "nostro"; la guerra dei balcani (quella vera) dove la maggior parte degli F-16 utilizzati dalla NATO, partivano dalle Basi Italiane; Falcon e di conseguenza BMS.

Il 16 é da sempre uno dei multiruolo che preferisco.

Io pure non ho preso il 18 proprio perché aspettavo il 16.

 

[Harley]

Il 18 l’ho preso avevo iniziato anche a fare qualche tutorial ed iniziare a simulare Ma poi è arrivato lui. L’F16.

Che voi sappiate, il block 50 ha i conformal fuel tanks?
