DCS G-91 PROJECT UPDATE
++++++++++++++++++
In the past few weeks our DCS Team made significant progress with the G.91 configuration and weapon system, so here is a quick update on where we are with this:
NOTE: AICRAFT TEXTURES AND 3D MODEL ARE JUST WIP PLACEHOLDERS - ALSO SCREENSHOTS INCLUDE GEOMETRY WITH MISSING TEXTURES - rest assured that everything will look much better in future
In addition to the familiar MK81, MK82, and MK83 in their low-drag, snakeye, and AIR versions, LR-25 rocket pods with ARF-8/M3 rockets, LAU-3 rocket pods with FFAR rockets, and cluster bombs, we have decided to add air-to-air capabilities to our module by integrating the AIM-9B.
Although the designers of the time had already equipped the aircraft with a dedicated system for this missile, flight tests (particularly those conducted by the Portuguese Air Force) never yielded positive results due to the seeker's inability to lock onto heat sources. Fortunately, DCS is not reality and allows us to achieve goals that the designers and specialists of the time could not.
So, keep an eye on the sun and prepare for the best firing solution to maximize your chances of a successful hit!
We have alos been working on the specific launcher for the HVAR rockets. The G-91 could carry from 3 to a maximum of 6 HVAR rockets per pylon. The screenshot shows the configuration with 3 HVAR rockets per pylon.
Lastly, but no less important, we want to show you a very preliminary version of the AS-20 Nord missile and its dedicated launcher. Full integration with the aircraft, including the ability for the pilot to control it remotely, is planned for the next quarter.
We are also working on other weapons for the G.91, such as the LAU-32BA and LAU-51BA rocket pods, as well as the capability to take off using JATO rockets.
We are also evaluating the M116A2 Napalm, but at the moment we cannot confirm it will be included.
As usual we'll keep you posted on our progress as soon as possible.
