The H-6J is a naval version of the H-6K long-range strategic bomber. It has a reinforced structure made of composite materials and enlarged engine inlets for Russian Saturn D-30KP-2 turbofan engines. A glass cockpit with large multi-function displays and a reworked nose section contain a powerful radar. The H-6J is one of the first high polygon model AI bombers in DCS World.
Six underwing hardpoints can carry new KD-63 and KD-20 cruise missiles as well as YJ-12 supersonic anti-ship missiles. Another three hardpoints are used for ECM and datalink pods. Conventional and guided bombs can be carried under the wings or in the bomb bay.

The M230 Area Weapon System (AWS) is a 30 mm single-barrel chain-driven autocannon. We have finished the 3D modelling and texturing of this lethal chain gun as well as the 2 hp electric motor that drives linkless ammunition at a rate of 550 rounds per minute into the firing chamber.
AWS ammunition will include both M789 High Explosive Dual Purpose (HEDP) and M788 training rounds. Note that these rounds do not have tracers. Please check out the In Development Screenshots and this DCS: AH-64D | M230 Chain Gun Showcase.

The Sd.Kfz. 124 Wespe (German for “Wasp”) is based on the chassis of the formidable Panzer II and features a 105mm artillery gun with light armour plating capable of absorbing small arms fire. The Wespe was appreciated by axis forces for its mobility and firepower, able to keep up with the fast moving panzer formations. A fantastic addition to the DCS: WWII Asset Pack, the Wespe gives axis forces a powerful long range punch. Download the pack now to ensure you have access to the new units as soon as they are available.
Thank you again for your passion and support,
