[h2]DCS: F-100D Super Sabre[/h2] [h3]Introducing the Hun[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//4471395/4b51aa5c8d38b24fdb0ac9a1a07f0934b7a2c0d8.png[/img] The F-100D is an advanced version of the Super Sabre that features improved avionics, landing flaps, and larger wings and tail fin. The upgraded avionics include the AN/AJB-1B low-altitude bombing system and an AN/APR-25 radar homing and warning system.

The F-100 was in service for 17 years and flew over 360,000 combat sorties before it was retired in 1971.

Working with veteran Hun pilots, the Grinnelli team is dedicated to simulating the avionics systems, weapons, performance, and unique flight model in high fidelity.

To find the sweet spot, we have made recordings starring two former military pilots with slavic accents to provide authentic and informative voice-overs. This will bring the number of spoken phrases to a similar level as in DCS: AH-64D. We intend to add new voice-overs for both helicopter crew AIs in future updates, and we will be monitoring your feedback to see how you enjoy them. We also plan to support switching between voice-over languages in the Special Tab settings. When that is done, we plan to add Russian language voice-overs to DCS: Mi-24P Hind. We are enhancing the ATGM sight after receiving new data. The first change to the ATGM sight and guidance unit is its control axis properties. Control voltage is used to move the gyro-stabilised aiming axis of the 9K113 system. There is a limit to how low it can be and the minimum speed that the motors driving this unit can move. The minimal speed of this system is 0.07 degrees per second. We've implemented this limitation for the Mi-24P Hind, and it will be available in the next Open Beta. Operators will mostly feel the difference in scenarios where the ATGM system is used at maximum range and when the target is small or moving at a speed that matches, or is below, the minimum aiming axis speed.

With special thanks to them, we have been working on adjusting the missing symbology in x3.3 mode (aiming grid and stadiametric rangefinding cues). Various overall grid size adjustments, along with FOV enhancements for both modes (x3.3 and x10), make it closer to its real counterpart. The diagram above reflects the distance to a target at 2 km.

Aircraft textures are nearly complete. The above screenshot illustrates the attention to detail of the landing gear that is now painted and animated. The aircraft's lighting equipment has been set up, and we are now texturing the bomb bay. We hope you enjoyed this update and look forward to your thoughts. Thank you again for your passion and support, Yours sincerely, [b]Eagle Dynamics[/b]
