P-51D into DCS Sims.

i understand you, but, it's example of technology - if not mistaken p-51 it's first plane with piston-engine, AFM and just high level of modelling, in real combat sim - little part of famous history, and money-making etc, so, personally i even seriously not think about maps, planes etc for something like DCS il-2...

in fact, personally i suspect that now could be hidden agrement between 1C and DCS or it's just understanding of situation, without agreements/words... although, unlikely...

and about this real perspective, i read what have problems with documents for soviet planes, but, if DCS will do yak-9p or la-9/11, well, it's great and with p-51, f-86 and mig-15 it's could be little variant of war 50-53, or real battles of cold war, or just hypothetical scenario usa vs ussr (in fact, without competition DCS could use this for advertising a la MG earlier - first time, p-51 vs la-9, AFM, what if etc etc etc... but i hope no... or, no matter)...

but and now, with p-51/fw 190d, it' could be hypothetical scenario usa vs ussr'45, i think, this is not news...

well, DCS legends it's just LITTLE dream for some peoples, without context and for serious money ie mainly for real lovers of old aviation...

(what i'm talking about, i even not playing in p-51 sorry for this "explaining" and sometimes even "advertising", if that, just trying to ponder about...)

yep... although, p-51 and d-9 are too similar in they performances, so, maybe, better do famous and most mass fw 190 a-8 (later it's could be a-7?, a-9, Fs and Gs), but, maybe not... well, no matter, because d-9 already in progress...
