DCS F-14B Tomcat - Wing Physics

[@watermanpc85]

Wings shake looks gorgeous, vapour effect has a big margin for improvement thought.

[@harshlens]

Yep, that's what I was going to say, when are we getting wind over wing in this game. You see some of the videos online and you get such massive vapour effect over the wings and it's yet not simulated in DCS...

[@19Clutch69]

you realize it's also atmospheric based on the conditions of that given point in time or regarless of angle attack and drag and speed

[@JoelLinus]

@@19Clutch69 Indeed, in videos where the F14 is much lower it does not stop vaping around like snoop dog

[@GreatistheWorld]

found my ASMR

[@Fercyful]

glad u get to play the module earlier! totally deserved. And sure u pre order it the same :)

[@uberneint3297]

Props to the cameraman

[@monikathomas4985]

Right? Beautiful

[@DanOdalson]

No easy days for camera-crews

[@alanyesilipek7959]

would have liked to see the vertical stabilizers shake aswell.

[@glitchjockey6551]

Razgriz Squadron would be proud

[@The_Fumbles]

Am the only one wondering how that camera wasn’t ripped off the moment he left the ground

[@angelporyazov534]

yes, because it's a video game

[@Baba-yv6ml]

lmaoooo I was also confused until I saw in the description it was DCS

[@mingzhu8093]

How the video is taken? Or is it CGI?

[@nemzecski]

Its a video game

[@simplydesan211]

What DCS modules are as close to original plane as Mirage 2000C, which is used by french air army for pilots training?

[@TonerLow]

The A-10C is pretty close to the sim that ED make for training ANG pilots. It's just older tech and Ive heard the real engines are a bit more powerful.

[@Foxhound617]

Seems to be just one triggered MiG-23 pilot disliking these videos

[@theonefrancis696]

No one: Wings: wiggle wiggle

[@PHVeteran_CODM]

That's Infinite Flight

[@ricklee4220]

Is it literally just for tight turning and higher speeds then?

[@johnb4545]

What are the control surfaces that open upwards on the wing called? Rear slats?

[@WhiteEagleTube]

Spoilers

[@johnb4545]

@@WhiteEagleTube Thanks!

[@Brimmlinn]

I believe they are called spoilerons as they combine the function of ailerons (which the Tomcat does not have) and traditional spoilers. Similar system to B-52 flight controls.

[@jjansgi]

@@Brimmlinn But on the F-14 they are still called spoilers.

[@discoverlight]

What video game is this?

[@ChuckOwl]

DCS World, it's a flight simulator! www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/

[@Andrecio64]

See the wings shaking too hard gives me anxiety

[@danwells7691]

thankyou jimmy carter for giving these planes to iran. now they have their own assembly plant for the f4s and f14s and now our newest drones

[@gaglug2897]

Iran ordered them from the US in January 1974, 3 years before Carter took office. Good try, thanks for playing.

[@danwells7691]

Gaglug as they sat on the runway the shaw of iran told us to get them outof there and peanut farmer refused. contracters disabled the fire controls . get a clue .

[@starrynights467]

you do realize that irans f14s havent been maintained in 20 odd years right? theyre basically held together with fuckin duct tape lmao

[@simageorge63]

Little flutter there

[@harshlens]

Wind over wing inexistent... not heatblur fault, dcs common man !!!

[@Default3628800]

I disliked

[@elonmuskhaslostit]

I dislike your disliking
