Dear Fighter Pilots, Partners and Friends,

The biggest savings of the year are now available with our DCS Summer Sale that will be running until the 14th of July 2024 at 15:00 GMT. Go and grab 50% discounts on a wide range of modules and terrains. Enjoy!

We're excited to bring you the latest updates on the DCS: CH-47F. We are currently debugging phase 1 of the cargo and sling loading functionality, an important aspect of CH-47F gameplay. We are also wrapping up the pilot models and door gunner operations. After careful evaluation and due to some stopper bugs, we have decided to delay the launch of the DCS: CH-47F, along with the DCS: Afghanistan map and our huge update to the 3rd of July, 2024. We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

We are thrilled to announce the release of the Four Horsemen campaign by ‘Fight’s on Sims’ for the DCS: AH-64D in the next update! Check out the details below.

Thank you for your passion and support.

Yours sincerely,

Eagle Dynamics

CH-47F

Development Progress

CH-47F

We are preparing to launch the DCS: CH-47F into Early Access, along with the new DCS: Afghanistan map. Much of the remaining work focuses on the cargo carrying functions, damage model, flight control systems, and avionics. We are also working on the countermeasure systems and door gunners. Furthermore, we are pleased to introduce new pilot models that will enhance the visual authenticity of the cockpit experience. 

Based on the results from recent internal and external testing, we have decided to move the launch date to the 3rd of July, 2024. This is your last opportunity to take advantage of the DCS: CH-47F -30% pre order discount that stays valid until launch! Consequently, we have decided to move the whole of our upcoming major update to the same date. So hurry and get your hands on DCS: Afghanistan also with the -30% pre order discount before time runs out.
