Read about the A-10C pilot model progress

The A-10 has a long history in DCS, and today we are proud to share another leap forward with a greatly improved and accurate pilot model, complete with a new ejection sequence  and a highly detailed first-person model that is ideal for VR.

The A-10C II Tank Killer pilot model new features:

• A fully redesigned, high-fidelity 3D pilot model

• Updated flight gear, survival equipment, and harness details

• Realistic helmet, oxygen mask, and goggle geometry

• An entirely new ejection animation, bringing more authenticity and impact to emergency procedures

• Enhanced cockpit body mesh and textures

• Accurate gloves, flight suit materials, and animations

• Improved posture, limb movement, and control interaction

• Better visual integration with cockpit lighting and shadows

Final tasks include work on more realistic animations, specifically the ejection sequence, seat trajectory and more realistic body movements in cockpit. This is part of our ongoing efforts to make the A-10C II Tank Killer cockpit feel more alive, especially during long CAS missions while in VR. Please stay tuned for the upcoming DCS update, you love this new pilot model.
