DCS: A-10C Warthog

DCS: A-10C Warthog es una simulación para PC del principal avión de ataque y de apoyo aéreo cercano de Estados Unidos. Es el segundo avión de la serie DCS, tras DCS: Black Shark, y eleva aún más el nivel en la serie DCS. Warthog ofrece la simulación para PC más realista de un moderno avión de combate de ala fija en lo que se refiere a dinámica de vuelo, aviónica, sensores y sistemas de armamento. También tienes la opción de jugar a Warthog en modo "Juego" para disfrutar de una experiencia de juego casual. Vuele en misiones en la región del Cáucaso del Mar Negro y combatir al lado o contra una amplia gama de fuerzas aéreas, terrestres y marítimas con inteligencia nueva y mejorada. Crea tus propias misiones y campañas con el editor de misiones y campañas incluido, y vuela al lado o contra amigos en línea usando el navegador de juegos en línea incluido.

Campaign

A-10C includes two campaigns in the Black Sea combat theater that take advantage of the many new Mission Editor features like commanding friendly air and ground groups. You will also see such functions as commanding other AI air groups to break orbits and attack and sending "Go Codes" to ground forces to advance.

Virtual JTAC

A critical part of the A-10C Close Air Support (CAS) mission is working with a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) to help detect and attack enemy ground forces. A-10C includes the most detailed and realistic virtual JTAC ever created for the desk top.

Depending on the JTAC location to enemy forces and the time of day, JTAC target designation can be by sending UTM coordinates, laser designation, mortar smoke marker, or IR pointer.

In addition to tasking instructions over the radio, a digital tasking can also be requested as a text message and target location on the TAD moving map.

Improved Ground Force AI

Given the A-10C's mission, ground forces artificial intelligence is critical. Important improvements include:

• Water crossing vehicles will bypass destroyed bridges
• Other units will re-route themselves if their route is blocked
• If a moving ground group is engaged, the group will disperse and evade
• Ground groups will now better use formations and employ new ones
• Some groups will pop smoke if engaged

Training

Particularly with such a detailed simulation as "DCS: A-10C Warthog", a step-by-step, interactive training system makes the job of learning to fly the aircraft monumentally easier.

The A-10C training system uses a combination of icons, voice messages and sub-titles to walk the player through each training mission. At each step of the mission, the instructor requests the player to perform an action, and not until the action is done, will the instructor move on to the next task. A graphic highlight is used to point out to the player specific cockpit switches to manipulate to progress to the following step.

The A-10C training module features a syllabus of lessons to progress the player from a general introduction to the A-10C trough a series of lessons in systems management and weapons employment.
