Edited for desktop wallpaper;

Nice to see more sharks flying around. It's a great sim for sure. I can barley touch the helicopters in ARMA2 now. Hope to see the shark-patch before christmas...

Glad to be flying again.

After Longbow 2, nothing ever felt right anymore. Patch should be out next month, iirc.

A10-C should be next, probably followed by AH64-A. I guess SU-25 after that.

At least it didn't explode this time.

Me too. Question is just if it is declassified enough to get the level of fidelity ED wants for DCS. If not, it's not gonna be there.

The Su-27? It's ancient and half the world is using it. The Ka-50 is a lot more classified...

Thing is, KA-50 doesn't have any radar, FLIR or fancy countermeasures/warning equipment, stuff that is more likely to be classified.

You sure KA-50 is still relatively classified? I doubt it to be honest, since ED won't do a playable model unless they have about all the information you can think of. They don't like filling blanks with guess-work for the DCS series.

Aaah, Warthog missions are great fun, nothing like using Gods finger on some rusty T-72s

Oh, and Arclight, you should have seen me in Comanche vs Hokum, trying to find the switch to do something, I think it was one of the MFDs when I hear:

"Ejecting rotors..."

Random button pressing is never a good idea...
