| 18 February 2022 Dear Fighter Pilots, Partners and Friends, We continue working on bug fixing and enhancements for our piston-engined aircraft. Recently, we have resolved a long standing issue that caused engine cut outs after long flights. This issue was most notable on the D-9 Dora and has now been resolved. The next step to improving the flight dynamics of DCS: Yak-52 are underway. Please keep a look out for the next Open Beta update to see these improvements and many other bug fixes. DCS: Supercarrier is making steady progress on the functionality of the Briefing room. The work on the Greenie board is finished and relays the actual information from the LSO station to provide live updates during the mission. Development Screenshots. We are happy to inform you that DCS: AH-64D has now entered Closed Beta Testing, this means that we are confidently moving closer to Early Access release. The initial feedback from the team is excellent and extremely appreciated, read more. We are also keen to share our progress on the Advanced Infrared Countermeasure Munition (AIRCMM). In addition, if you have not already checked this out, please take a look at Matt Wagner's latest video from the AH-64D tutorial series: DCS: AH-64D | Gun. Thank you for your passion and support. Yours sincerely, Eagle Dynamics Team | |
[h=1]Yak-52[/h][h=2]Flight Dynamics[/h] As a result of the Flight Model enhancements, the aircraft will have more realistic take-off behaviour and better performance in inverted aerobatic manoeuvres. We understand that some of you have been waiting for these improvements a while and we thank you for your patience. Going forward we will address other tasks that need to be completed before moving DCS: Yak-52 out of Early Access. We very much look forward to your feedback in the next Open Beta update. | |
[h=1]WWII Engines[/h][h=2]Development Progress[/h] During the last few weeks, we have located and fixed a long standing and very tricky bug when the engine would suddenly stop after a long duration flight. As we can see the bug affected many warbirds but was mostly noticed on Fw 190D-9 Dora. We plan to include this fix in the next update. | |
[h=1]Supercarrier[/h][h=2]Development Progress[/h] The work is essentially finished on the Greenie board that is connected to the actual LSO station data, which provides live updates during the mission.We are currently working on the functionality of crew tablets where you will be able to see mission briefings as well as check and change loadouts. In addition, the briefing officer can control the projected picture that is visible on the main screen and choose what to show on the auxiliary TV screen located above his head. | |
[h=1]AH-64D Flares[/h][h=2]Development Progress[/h] We are pleased to share our progress on the M206 IR Decoy Flares that provide protection against air-to-air and surface-to-air infrared weapon systems. The Advanced Infrared Countermeasure Munition (AIRCMM) consists of the M211 Flares and supplements the M206 Aircraft Countermeasure Flares. The M211 Flares are specifically designed for low flying, slow moving rotary aircraft.To make sure you have not missed out, check Matt Wagner’s latest videos in the AH-64D Tutorial Series and get stuck into DCS: AH-64D | TADS Part II.
