DCS: Mi-24P Hind development progress.

19 March 2021



Dear Fighter Pilots, Partners and Friends,

Today, we are pleased to announce the Early Access features for DCS: Mosquito FB Mk.VI. The Mosquito will be optimised for multi-crew and will be the first two manned, twin-engined WWII aircraft in DCS World. Please have a look at the In Development Screenshots.

The main weapon control system features for DCS: Mi-24P Hind have now been completed. We have also connected and finalised the interior and exterior sounds from the engines, systems and rotors. Pre-orders will soon be commencing and we would like to share our on-going tasks.

Check out the cooperation between Reflected Simulations and Tomcat officer, 'Bio' Baranek in the DCS: F-14 Zone 5 Campaign by Reflected Simulations. If you are interested in becoming a campaign creation for DCS World, check out our forum for more details.

Thank you for your passion and support.


Yours sincerely,

Eagle Dynamics Team

Mossie

Early Access

Mi-24P Hind

All systems and components have been modelled in excruciating detail and include the recent cooling system updates that were made to DCS: P-47D Thunderbolt.

Early Access Features;

  • High-quality external 3D model
  • 6 Degree of Freedom fully clickable cockpit with latest visual effects
  • Flight Dynamics based on official reports, our own CFD research and pilot feedback
  • Full Fuel system and optional external tanks
  • Full electrical system
  • Full hydraulic and pneumatic system
  • Propeller feathering

Early Access Armament:

  • 4 British Browning .303 machine guns
  • 4 Hispano 20mm guns
  • 250lbs and 500lbs bombs in the bomb bay and under each wing

The damage model for the Mossie considers the internal wood structure of the airplane and uses each internal element of the aircraft - oil, air, hydraulic and cooling systems, engine, throttle, trim, and the airframes main strength spars and stringers to calculate the visual damage.

We are now able to consider all these factors, which in turn enables us to more accurately simulate damage to the airframe and the effects on the flight model. For example, damage to the wing skin will lead to a decrease in the lift and cause more drag, damage to the spar will cause strength reduction and potentially wing snap under certain strains.

We look forward to sharing further progress, please check out In Development Screenshots.

Features coming after Early Access:

  • Rockets armament
  • Radio units T1154 (transmitter) & R1155 (receiver)
  • The historical accurate navigation system for WWII aircraft
  • Controllable AI navigator/radio operator

When the Mossie becomes available in Early Access, we will be considering feedback from the community and working on the next stages of development.

Development Report

Mi-24P Hind

We are currently improving in cockpit reflections using our new pre-calculated ray tracing technique. This enhancement will be deployed to other modules in the near future.

We are adjusting the sight line direction controls and missile guidance from the operator's seat.

The operator AI features are being tested and debugging is going smoothly.

Zone 5

Reflected Simulations

Zone 5 Campaign

‘Bio’ entered the US Navy in 1979, and he boasts a 20-year long career. Barnek has over 2,500 F-14 Tomcat flight hours with 688 carrier landings. His logbook also records 450 instruction flight hours in the F-5E Tiger II.

This campaign gives a taste of 1980s air combat training and is fun and challenging.

Thank you again for your passion and support,


Yours Sincerely,
