Digital Combat Simulator World (DCS World) 2.7 is a free-to-play digital battlefield game and simulation environment. Our dream is to offer the most authentic and realistic simulation of military aircraft, tanks, ground vehicles and ships possible. This free download includes a vast mission area of the Caucasus region and Black Sea that encompasses much of Georgia. It also includes a flyable Russian Sukhoi Su-25T ground attack aircraft and the famous WWII North American TF-51D fighter. An additional 38 aircraft are available for purchase.
The download comes with one of the most powerful mission editor ever designed, full network play and more than 156 AI weapons systems, 105 ground vehicles and trains, 50 air defense systems, 19 ships and 84 AI aircraft permitting you to plan and play highly sophisticated missions. DCS World is massively extensible through additional DCS modules as well as user-made add-ons and mods which you can purchase and download from our site.
DCS is a true "sandbox" simulation that is also designed to cover multiple time periods of interest such as WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, Gulf War and others. Current regions to battle include the Back Sea, Marianas, Nevada Test and Training Range, Persian Gulf, English Channel, Syria, and Normandy 1944.
DCS World is fundamentally a deep, authentic and realistic simulation designed also to offer a more relaxed gameplay to suit the user and his particular level of experience and training. The ambition is to hand hold users from novice pilot all the way to the most advanced and sophisticated operator of such complex weapons systems as the A-10C Warthog, the F/A-18C Hornet, F-16C Viper, and F-14 Tomcat. The only next step is the real thing!

[@ReflectedSimulations]

Hey Wolfpack, thanks so much for this wonderful preview, I really love the way you edit your videos to make them enjoyable to watch, with external shots, music and all that. I'm also looking forward to the release of the campaign: All 16+ missions are detailed recreations of original squadron records and combat reports, so the player can experience the exact same events as these young men in '43 - from the safety of their chairs, that is. It's probably the most realistic RAF experience ever released in a simulator.

[@leeonardodienfield402]

I need it

[@jonridley]

I’m fortunate to live on the South Coast on the Channel and we still get Spitfires flying over on a fairly regular basis (for various reasons, air shows, flybys of Seven Sisters (iconic white cliffs in Sussex), films and tv programs etc) we also get other planes such as mosquitos and p51s/p47s occasionally and the odd modern aircraft such as chinooks or (once or twice!) Apaches. It helps inspire my next dcs flight seeing the real thing 😊

[@HispAnakin42]

Imagine flying in WW2 and you look at your wing mate and he just has his camera and is like “Hello everybody, wolf pack here”

[@thespeeddemon7832]

"this flight is sponsored by RAID SHADOW LEGENDS!"

[@HarrisonCooper21]

Fun fact, there’s a pub that is next to Biggin Hill airfield that was shot at by a rear gunner of a Dornier when it flew low over the airfield That is where you could find the pilots and crew. It destroyed 2 cars

[@JessWLStuart]

Spitfires are such gorgeous aircraft!

[@andytothesky]

I’m sure you read it, but Chuck’s Spitfire guide has a fantastic table that you can use to estimate fuel burn for given engine power settings. I use it to plan cross channel sorties on the 4YA WWII server

[@PappyGunn]

To add to this. I have a few engine settings by default. Cruise is 2450 rpm and about 4 boost. This is what the formation AI uses. Max continuous is just that, 2650 and 7 boost, good for cruising in a hot area. The Spit has a special climb mode, 2800 rpm and 12 boost, 180 mph. It can do this for an hour. I actually use this setting in combat, so I don't blow the engine.

[@MrKamusta]

I live in Kent and we still have Spitfires flying over our house from Biggin Hill!

[@HydroSnips]

Spitfires, RAF Fighter Command & an actual historical campaign??? >drools< This is gonna be awesome. LOVED the detail of the French accent given due to the mention of 340 (Free French) Squadron following in the briefing. Even got the RAF Interior Green right :D

[@RedHawk785]

This is right out of "The Big Show" written by WW2 Spitfire and Tempest Ace pilot Pierre Clostermann, DFC. I read his book 55 years ago and it stuck with me to such an extent that back in '01 I had dual instruction in a TF-51D which is as close as I could come to flying a Spitfire. At least they share the same Merlin engine produced by different manufacturers.

[@DanBlake3rd]

You are in luck. The campaign designer has already released one based on The Big Show, also my favorite WW2 flying book.

[@Gigi-ik3br]

That is so cool! My partner just finished a short story about Biggin Hill. So it was quite exciting to see it represented in the game.

[@Wolfpack345]

Oh really? That is awesome!

[@PappyGunn]

I flew this a couple of times, and I am flying it again! Great campaign, and it will make you work for it. I am now flying it in VR in Dec 2023; being able to use Mutithreading and NVIDIA DLSS makes a heck of a difference. Very immersive and there are sights that will take your breath away. Imagine overtaking 3 boxes of B-17s , watching them drop bombs and then have the Wing of Spitfires diving to intercept German fighters. I really recommend this one, it's not easy but it si very rewarding. And well made.

I absolutely love the way it feels to fly in IL-2, almost as if it has your back, doing anything and everything you need it to do. Just wanted your take since you have experience in both games.

Nice. But i suppose DCS does not have FW-190A-5/A-6 for the timeframe of this particular campaign.

[@andytothesky]

The Spitfire LF.IX is also slightly anachronistic. Realistically we’d be flying F.IXs with M61 and 63s, not LF.IXs with the M66. Overall, the performance between the Fw 190A-8 and LF.IX aren’t massively different from the A-5/6s and F.IXs they would otherwise be facing.

[@clibanarius3122]

@@andytothesky Agreed. But still, A-8 in '43 is a little thorn in a side for anyone who claims to be an aviation history grognard. :)

[@ReflectedSimulations]

This should answer your question ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpTPgJt3qbl5bZI

[@JamesLaserpimpWalsh]

I doubt they would have took off from Biggin Hill(Not enough fuel to have a fight on the other side) They would have taken off near the coast. The UK was PEPPERED with minor airfields especially down where I live in the New Forest area of Hampshire. I still gallop my horse up some of the abandoned grass strips. Nature has taken them over but you can still see the outlines of the grass ones and many of the concrete ones are still bout as well.

[@Wolfpack345]

They did infact take off and heavily use Biggin Hill. Here you can see the airfields 611 squadron used. Looks like they were at Biggin Hill from September 1942 - July 1943. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/No._611_Squadron_RAF

[@HydroSnips]

Huh? Biggin Hill was a sector airfield. Squadrons from there defended the evacuation of Dunkirk in 1940 & later flew sweeps of all descriptions (rhubarbs, circuses, ramrods etc) over NW France in 41, 42, 43 & 44. It was one of the most well-known & most famous British airfields of the war. Yeah, the Spitfire didn’t dawdle over France with fuel precious, but squadrons from Biggin were in continuous action over both UK and north-west Europe (France/Belge) from 39-45. You’ll also note the external fuel tank at the start (plus Wolf mentions it at a couple of points).

It's kind of 6 of 1, 1/2 dozen of the other. They each have advantages over the other. As someone just out of noob stage with this generation flight sim, I feel IL2 is more approachable for a noob but I'm sure someone will disagree with me.

[@shatteredreality46]

question, what would you say is your favourite plane so far that you've flown in from any of the flight sim games you play and which do you think is better DCS: World or IL2

[@tomjewell4098]

Just to jump in on the DCS/il2 question. It's very subjective but if I had to choose one it would be il2 for the breadth of content you get for your buck. They both look beautiful in different ways. Both are super immersive. And both do some things better than the other. Whichever you go for, wait for a sale, they're fairly regular. And perhaps over time you can just get both?
