DCS: Mig-19 and F-14 News

We have some news about Razbam's Mig-19 and Heatblur's F-14.

The Mig-19 release was meant for this month however there has been a delay. ED and Razbam have come across some minor bugs in the Mig-19's flight model so they've held back the release until those are sorted out.

Razbam has been releasing a number of videos about the Mig-19 so if you'd like to see them take a look at their YouTube channel.

Now, on to the F-14. Heatblur is coming closer to having the B version done. They just released the manual so we can now take a look at where the switches and gauges are at, learn the startup procedures and learn how to get the weapons systems working. This is going to be a difficult module to learn, but, it'll also be a lot of fun.

Take a look at the manual, get yourself prepared, and I'll see you in the sky.

DCS: 2019 Will Be a Busy Year

Happy New Years everyone!

2019 is set to be a very busy year for DCS. So far there are three confirmed modules to be release this year. The Christen Eagle II will come out this month on the 23rd. The F-14B will come sometime between now and March 21st. And Deka Ironworks has announced that their JF-17 will be available this summer.

I'm also thinking that the Mig-19 may become available this year as well. From what I've seen from the developer's posts it looks to be nearing completion.

That's an awful lot of planes to come in just one year. So, personally, I'll need to pick and choose which I get and which I'll have to wait a while since I won't have enough money for everything. As many fans of DCS have said before "DCS is an expensive hobby." That being said, I've already pre-ordered the F-14 so it's a give in that I will have that one this year. The next plane I'm sure to get this year is the JF-17. I've been waiting for a very long time to get a full fidelity Red Force plane that's more advanced than the Mig-21.

I'd like to get the Mig-19, if it comes out this year, but I don't think I'll have the money for that one. I'm hoping that the F-4E does not come out this year too. I'd like to get that one right away but I want to save up some money first.

If you've played DCS for a while, what aircraft are you looking forward to getting? If you haven't tried it yet, what would you be interested in seeing in there?

Have a good time flying this year.
Land safely everyone.
