Yes total agree.
But they are not there yet. P-51 from DCS is FSX with guns - but there is nothing for your P-51 to do except fly around and shoot at the ground because DCS world is modern jet sim where P-51 gets blown down from the sky by G2A missiles and radar AAA and jets and choppers with A2A missiles. You can blow up trucks with WWII rockets, but not main battle tanks! You can fly P-51 vs AI P-51 but the AI P-51 does not understand laws of physics, and you can fly online P-51 vs other P-51 pilots but good luck finding a server with this, I have tried a couple of times only one server can I find, and usually no one on it when I log in. Anyway how much fun is P-51 vs P-51 online - once you have done a couple of times, it is yawwwwwn.
They will get there though, I think P-51 is just first step. Then then need bigger maps, different theatres, different aircraft. I am faithful they will.
