The key feature for this updated JDAM is the new autopilot. This weapon now incorporates enhanced trajectory laws and provides the capability of programming for an impact with a specific terminal heading and vertical angle. These options are designed to improve weapon effectiveness depending on the type of target. The graph below demonstrates this effect.

Effect of desired terminal vertical angle on GBU-38 bomb path

Due to aerodynamic restrictions precise impact points are not always possible, in this case, JDAM uses an algorithm to check the impact heading and vertical angle. If the check indicates a noticeable miss, the algorithm will seek for conditions that will allow for an on target hit. In addition, to reduce the probability of a near miss and to improve ballistics penetration, the autopilot will command a zero angle of attack during the last seconds of flight.




We encountered a target lock issue with objects in close proximity to the desired enemy. Symbology errors on the WPN page will be fixed in the next update. The seeker depression angle markers are currently being adjusted as well as the Sensor of Interest (SOI).

In the next Open Beta update, the addition of the BSGT option and uncage ability will be added. The LOS handoff indication on HUD can also be expected. The possibility to engage target lock with two missiles prior to launching the first will also become available. It will be possible to ripple fire two locked-on missiles with RP 2 option. We are also working on the TMS-right re-command handoff.

With the core of the fuel system in place, the team’s next focus will be on integrating cockpit switch functionalities, gauges and displays. Work has also begun on the electrical system, which powers avionics and sensors. This is highly detailed work and one of the developers top priorities.

The instantaneous turn rate was tested and improved. It was noticed during this test that maintaining near-stall AoA was a bit tricky due to buffeting.

We have tuned our buffeting model to match the reference charts and then, the tests were conducted again in the same conditions. Load factor fluctuations are now gone, resulting in the ability to maintain near-stall AoA.

The GAU-8/A “Avenger” 30mm hydraulically driven autocannon has received an improved set of sound effects to take advantage of better doppler shifting, sound delay between round impacts, round flight and cannon fire effects. The seven barrel gatling-style gun is capable of delivering 4,200 rounds per minute, striking fear into any surrounding enemies.

Brrrrrtttt on!

Our improved AI will encompass variable decision making protocols dependent on a continuously calculated environment in order to enhance fight/disengage/run behaviour. The AI will make emergency landing decisions on land or water (ditch), it can also react in case of sudden attacks even if the attacker is not visible. If there is light damage, it will attempt to evade the ‘unseen attack’ and search for the attacker. When damage is more serious, it will evade and RTB where and when possible. Potentially the damage can be too high and the only solution is bailing out.




Closed beta testing is now in final stages as we plan to release for public testing at the end of this month. The new damage model will also be integrated into WWII AI bombers.

Each aircraft has unique hydraulics, pneumatic and electrical systems and materials. As a result, the predicted damage depends on the type of munition, munition velocity dependent on distance and location of impact. The internal effects such as engine/radiator damage, coolant or oil temperature variation, loss of pressure, loss of control or other effects will generate the corresponding internal and/or external visual effects.

We have deployed this technology to all our World War II fighters, and we trust that the long wait will be worth it and we hope that it will be to your demanding expectations.

DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer adds new weapons such as; the Advanced Precision Kill Weapons System (APKWS), AGM-65L laser-Maverick, and GBU-54 laser-guided JDAM. A completely remodelled cockpit with options for factory-fresh and weathered textures. The “Scorpion” system used to train the 355th Wing cadets and the updated external model now set the bar for our future releases.

We have updated the preset key commands for HOTAS hardware to make new users feel more comfortable learning this in-depth system. The fully interactive Forward Air Controller (FAC) will also help you find and engage enemy targets, cooperative target engagement has been taken to a new level.

With the improved ability to command ground forces, the vast number of land, air and sea units as well as feature-rich cooperative missions and head-to-head multiplayer; We are proud to say this is the most realistic model ever done for PC simulation.

Pricing Policy
DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer is available now for $79.99. If you own DCS: A-10C Warthog, you can upgrade to DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer for only $9.99 until the 31st of October 2020. After that, the upgrade will cost $19.99.

The upgrade option and module are both available on Steam now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK6-8iL0_9E

A new addition to the renowned A-10C is the Helmet Mounted Cueing System (HMCS). It provides excellent situational awareness and the ability to cue weapons and sensors by just looking at the target and setting a designation. Please note that this is not the same helmet implementation as for the Viper and Hornet systems; it is in many ways far superior.





We are currently working on the animation engine capabilities. We have added additional animations to vary operations phases on-board DCS: Supercarrier. A new skeleton that better matches human anatomy is in progress, this will improve realistic deck crew movement.

We are also working on improving the catapult launch animation for the DCS: F/A-18C Hornet pilot. The hand models have been corrected whilst we continue to develop Nomex® flight gloves. We are also using highly detailed 3D scanning technology to better model the pilot for point-of-view experience. When complete, the CWU-27 / p Flight Suit and the CSU-13 / p Anti-G Suit will be available.




August, 1944. You arrive in Merville-Calonne to take on leadership of 7./JG26 flying Focke Wulf 190A-8s. Most of the pilots are mere teenagers with only a few flying hours, and your job is to turn them into an efficient fighting unit under the ever-increasing pressures of the war. The Allies have gained complete air superiority over the continent, and their ground forces are advancing rapidly through France.

Experience the thrill of attacking large bomber formations head-on and the terror of taking off amid the bullets of low flying Mustangs. Download DCS: Fw 190 A-8 Horrido! Campaign by Reflected Simulations now.

• Weapon systems

The module will also receive a damage model, detailed flight manual, and many missions.




DCS: A-10 II Tank Killer is currently undergoing a lengthy closed testing period to ensure accuracy, stability, and a smooth launch. We continue to improve the Helmet Mounted Cueing System (HMCS) indicators, add more skins and mission content, and tune flight model changes. We encourage you to get familiar with the new weapon systems to hit the ground running.

This update is being developed in parallel with the A-10C VR Training Software for the 355th Fighter Wing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42LBTv9tdhc
In this video we introduce the primary features of this substantial update and instruct on the use of the AGM-65L laser-guided Maverick. The Laser-Maverick provides excellent range and ease-of-use to lock onto a target by using the targeting pod.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyVIss-EcSg
The GBU-54 is a 500-pound bomb with options for INS/GPS and laser-homing guidance. It can be loaded on all 1760 smart racks.

While INS/GPS allows launch-and-leave and the ability to engage through cloud and smoke cover, the laser-guidance provides increased accuracy and can engage moving targets. It’s up to you to determine the best guidance based on the engagement.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spLvR97LlNA
The Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) is a cost-effective method of engaging unarmored and lightly armored targets based on pinpoint laser-guidance. Both M-151 high-explosive and M-282 penetration warhead versions are available with seven rockets per each LAU-131 rocket pod. With a range of approximately 5 miles, the APKWS offers accurate firepower.

Get a grip on how to use the APKWS with DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer Laser-Guided Rockets.

We will be introducing two expansions to DCS: P-47D Thunderbolt. The P-47D-30 (Early) modification will become available; equipped with a Mark 8 gunsight, an earlier version of the control stick and throttle lever, as well as modified bomb dropping mechanics. From the exterior, the model is easily distinguishable due to the absence of the fin strake in the upper fuselage.

Our second modification is the P-47D-40 with rocket capabilities. These rockets are the familiar HVARs and the M8 rockets, both used extensively by the Allies in large numbers during World War II. The aircraft bombing loadouts have also been expanded.

Coming soon: integration of water methanol injection, improved engine damage modelling, and compressibility recovery using underwing dive flaps.

F-16C Viper

Most notably, we are working on the HARM and Maverick missile systems and look forward to sharing more information with the next 2.5.6 Open Beta update.
