Dear Fighter Pilots, Partners and Friends,

The final Key Feature of the DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer is the inclusion of the ARC-210 radio. The radio will be fully compatible with the Voice Chat system. Please read the details below and expect it in the next Open Beta update.

The next Open Beta will also introduce three new campaigns; the DCS: Mosquito FB VI V for Victory campaign by Reflected Simulations, the DCS: AV-8B Kerman campaign by Ground Pounder Sim, and the DCS: F/A-18C Inherent Resolve campaign by Looking Glass.

ARC-210 Radio for the Warthog

The Final Key Feature

The ARC-210 radio is the final Key Feature of the DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer, and it’s planned for the next Open Beta. The ARC-210 replaces one of the two VHF radios on the left console and provides UHF and VHF modes that can also be programmed from the COMM page on a Multifunction Color Display. The ARC-210 can also be controlled from the Upfront Controller (UFC) and display the current setting on the HUD.

Following the initial release of the ARC-210 with UHF and VHF modulation, the satellite radio functions will also be added, in addition to other DCS aircraft that support satellite radio communications. The ARC-210 will be fully compatible with the integrated Voice Chat system.

Three New Campaigns!

Coming in Next Open Beta

DCS: Mosquito FB VI V for Victory campaign by Reflected Simulations

The ‘’V for Victory’ campaign includes thrilling missions like night intruder, ranger, pathfinder, and photo recce to mention a few. It also contains accurate recreations of some of the most iconic Mossie missions of the war. Help the prisoners break out from the Amiens prison, bomb the Gestapo headquarters, and attack the radio station as Reichsmarshall Goering is delivering a propaganda speech. Put on your Irvin jacket, climb into the cockpit, and see if you have what it takes to be the leader of a Mosquito Squadron.

This campaign consists of 12 historical and semi-historical missions, nearly a thousand specially recorded voice-over messages and radio broadcasts, historically accurate liveries, and much more as you’d expect from a Reflected Simulations campaign.

DCS: AV-8B Kerman campaign by Ground Pounder Sim

Join ‘Detachment B’ of US Marine Corps Harrier squadron VMA-311 as they embark on ‘The Kerman Campaign’ over the Persian Gulf map. The 2011 Arab Spring has sparked civil unrest across southwest Asia, and this has led to violent Iranian repression of its citizens. This chain of events has led to the formation of a US-led coalition and the launch of Operation Persian Freedom. The Kerman Campaign puts you in the shoes of USMC Captain Mitch ‘Mike-Mike’ Mickleson as the Harrier pilot of ‘Det B’ to fight to protect his fellow marines on the ground.

This highly-immersive and exciting campaign is set across 11 missions, and it features a standalone story set within the Operation Persian Freedom campaign storyline. The Kerman Campaign will push virtual Harrier pilots to the limits as they experience intense and detailed close air support operations.

DCS: F/A-18C Inherent Resolve campaign by Looking Glass

This exciting and player-friendly Hornet campaign takes place over the Syria map. Join the multinational coalition to fight against ISIS in 13 epic missions that are suitable for flyers at all skill levels. You are “Stryker”, a rookie deployed to Incirlik Air Base with your wingman “Jazzman”. This progressive campaign utilizes a wide range of target locations and airfields such that you will be bombing some of the most interesting parts of the map! The action piles up fast as you navigate your way through a series of dramatic and exciting missions that you will enjoy playing again and again. Mission briefs are quick and easy, and it comes supplied with kneeboards, mission PDFs, and associated imagery.

These three new campaigns are planned for the next Open Beta update and will provide you with a wealth of new gameplay from talented DCS campaign makers. Stay tuned!

Thank you again for your passion and support,

Yours sincerely,
