After an extensive pre-flight check on Dev-Branch, the Arma 3 Jets DLC is almost ready to land onto your hard drive. Whether you're a milsimmer, mission maker, fixed-wing enthusiast, or someone who just can't get enough of the 'Danger Zone', there's a lot to look forward to. So, in anticipation of the release on May 16th, here's a special devblogon 10 of our favorite things about the Jets DLC!



You can purchase the Jets DLC with a 10% pre-order discount until the DLC releases next week on Tuesday May 16th. Alternatively, if you already wish to enlist for all planned upcoming Arma 3 DLC, you can purchase the Arma 3 DLC Bundle 2, which saves you more than 25% over purchasing the upcoming Jets, “Orange” (working title), Tac-Ops, and Tanks DLC separately.

SITUATION
With less than two weeks to go before the release of Jets DLC, we're now finishing all of the remaining tasks, making sure that everything will be in a splendid state at launch. This means we're sweeping bugs left and right, preparing the data for final adjustments, and processing the community feedback. Meanwhile, various covert units in our development team are also working on the other DLC listed on our 2017 roadmap.

OPSUM: Target Locked: Improving threat detection, tracking and engagement in Arma 3



EVALUATION:
As soon as Arma 3 Jets DLC appeared on the horizon, we began to think about its so-called 'platform features' (improvements available to everyone that owns Arma 3). One of the key items on our wishlist was the 'radar' (also sometimes known as 'magic radar' to its detractors!). While its ease-of-use was convenient in some ways, Jets DLC represented a splendid opportunity to add more depth to detection and targeting gameplay. Now - after many, many hours of development, and the commitment of the whole team (and Electronic Warfare Task Force in particular!) - we're almost ready to distribute our new approach to our Arma 3 service members. In this OPREP, we'd like to introduce what we call the 'Sensor Overhaul'.

SITUATION
After a short Easter break, the Arma 3 development team is working together with BRAVO ZERO ONE Studios to apply the finishing touches to the Jets DLC. Internally, we have entered a Data Lock period. That means that every change to the internal development build of the game will now need to be individually reviewed and approved to ensure a smooth and stable build. Prepare to take off, this REPort will be full of Jets details!
