Odds are that they will make a new plane to oppose or supliment the the A-10-C or branch off in some other Weird and wonderful direction like vietnam
When you think about it we don't have a player flyable equivalent to the Blackshark yet!
DCS World at the moment product is a group of unrelated study sims. It's all out of context. And look at the time it's taken them to get the Navada map off the ground. (Has it been released yet?)

DCS has the problem of classified information for modern aircraft that is why they are having a hard time producing aircraft to counter the KA-50
This is why they are now starting the new flying legends series. Old WW2 aircraft are now declassified and they are able to model them far quicker than modern aircraft.

Map is of little consequence, people want to fly.. people are already hosting server and dog fighting just with the one WW2 aircraft they have.

They have already announced that the flying legend series is separate and is being developed in parallel with their modern projects, resources devoted to modern aircraft have no bearing on the development of the flying legend series.

They will not announce/confirm nor deny anything... however I am privileged enough to have insight in their development direction.
