New DCS 3rd party! #7237

Looks like a new DCS team is in the works and they are currently applying for their license.

Here is their facebook page and a teaser of the first aircraft.

Here is a possible look at their aircraft, with the quote, " In the dark everything will be revealed".

Nice find!

Well, I think we're definitely looking at the front end of a canopy.. Looks like a couple of reflections on a HUD. And if it's right up to this point, that's a canopy bow so it opens rearward. Let the research/wild speculation begin!

Seems like the canopy flattens out instead of dropping back down like the real photo?

Since when can the words, "Coming soon". Be trademarked?

lol noticed that too.. And if anyone were to have rightful claim to trademark the phrase "coming soon," it'd be ED.

They've also got some renders of AIM-9 and Python 3, or possibly Chinese knockoffs of them.. No idea what the pod thing is, my guess is ECM/ACMI pod? Looking at the picture of the end of it, it looks a little bit like Chinese lettering..

Could be a J-10 without the refueling probe visible?

Or JF-17?

I don't think it'd be a J-11 or any of their other Flanker-knockoffs, I think they all have IRST bubbles.

Yep, KXD-2 is an ACMI pod. I'm 90% sure we're looking at our first "something Chinesey" in DCS.

Good find! So now the question is what does "coming soon" mean? Normal soon (weeks or months) or DCS soon (years or decades)?

J-10 would be interesting I think. I guess that's what I'm hoping for, though I can't really say I'm waiting on the edge of my seat no matter what it ends up being. Nothing Chinese is "original." Everything is based on stuff bought or stolen from other countries.

I'm thinking J-10 or JF-17 Thunder.

Edit: I see others have come to the same conclusions

Those would both be interesting subjects and definitely not the usual F-16 or F/A-18 multi-roles that have already been done to death.

Edit2: After thinking about it for a few more minutes... Deka is Ten... Chengdu J-10 confirmed! Of course I really would rather have a JH-7.

Edit3: After looking at their logo I was thinking more JF-17.
