The "F-14 in second half of 2016" is what caught my attention.. That's entirely too long to expect me to wait. It really better not be pushed much further back than July or August.

If it goes supersonic, it'll be here in 30 seconds.

"Both of these aircraft have afforded us an opportunity to develop critical technology for the future, and...provided an easier path to unlock other aircraft making use of similar technology (AJS-37). It's also very important to remember that you may only catch a glimpse of the big picture with just the module names."

DO TELL, LNS.

"In particular, some of the advancements we have made with these two modules are as follows:
Various FM improvements and extensions, including e.g. thrust reversers, carrier trap simulation."

I am all to excited to see what is possible for the carrier navy of DCS, even if we start with the old bird, the f14 does have a timeframe and if they can perfect traps with the older model, landing ought to be as fun as the mission itself!

Here you go sweeper. It'll probably be more like this in the beginning.




... and then, hopefully not too long later, we'll be able to do this.

Never seen the flood lights come on like that.. Really lights up the deck, doesn't it? So they just do a FOD walk and it's back to business recovering jets?

Yes, if we are doing blue water ops. If we have a divert close by the rest of the jets go there. We would also put up a tanker for the low state birds if needed. It is all situation dependent.
