Top Gun Intro [1080p] - Leatherneck Simulations announces DCS F-14A/B Tomcat

[@ChuckOwl]

That Tomcat is pure sex on wings.

[@wiaf8937]

I needed to buy a whole pack of new underpants after that annoucement. F-14 is what made me love aviation. I remember sneaking into the living room when I was super young just to stealthily watch the Top Gun Scenes on VHS. That poor VHS was so raped by 6y/o Wiaf :D

[@destrocrimson]

+Chuck Owl that stalled alot lol

[@Soundtracks92]

+destrocrimson Only the F-14A variant had stall issues with it's old Pratt and Whitney TF-30 turbofan engines. This stalling issue was resolved with the installation of the GE (General Electric)-110 engines in the F-14A+, F-14B, and F-14D Super Tomcat variants :) with additional thrust weight of 12,000 pounds and an extra MPH rate of 300, with the air intakes fully open

[@destrocrimson]

+Captain Phasma leatherneck said its modeling would you include the histocal issues the 14a and b had.

[@KarayaYT]

Yay, my favourite jet fighter of all time. Can't beat the sexy look of this beast!

[@destrocrimson]

+JG4_Karaya even more so with 1.5 and maybe 2.0 coming out.

[@F22raptor46]

Was thinking I'd see the plane. Its just the scene from the movie

[@ItsACamellia]

The Hype! I don't often get hyped for DCS things but I can make an exception... "Tower this is Ghost-rider requesting a flyby?"

[@Lemard77]

OMG the hype is real !! Have fun engaging multiple targets at +100 km with the AIM-54 Phoenix :D

[@ChuckOwl]

Well there are so many great planes coming up... I personally can't wait for the french ones like the Mirage 2000 and F1.

[@Lemard77]

Chuck Owl The Mirages look great... also MiG-23 and MiG-27 (dat sharp nose). There are a lot of planes out there... Bad thing is that a lot of money will cost having all of them :( Any news on the big MiG interceptors (25 and 31)?

[@ChuckOwl]

Nothing yet...

[@stalhuth]

yes only bombers :/

[@becauseiwasinverted5222]

a little random, but why would you want a MiG-25/31?

[@ЛогистЛель-ЭКО]

So, they need playable F-5 Aggresor squadron for full topgun simulation =))

[@johnrambo84]

+Логист Лель- ЭКО F-5 is being released to as a module :)

[@Soundtracks92]

Who could possibly dislike this epicness?? XD

[@Makku293]

Best combat aircraft ever lived... I love you Tomcat.

[@TheSkipjack95]

What a night that announcement was.

[@ChuckOwl]

Didn't have so much fun reading the ED forums in a long while. ;) Was great to see people excited like that

[@TheSkipjack95]

Chuck Owl Indeed, Cobra has done a good job hyping us up. I think LNS' banker will be surprised once he sees the income spike resulting from the preorders ^^

[@evanbrown2594]

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

[@reyco1987]

...There is a God...

[@ChuckOwl]

A Flight Sim God, yes. I dunno about the other one... ;)

[@alphamale3622]

Watching this movie almost thirty years later ...1987-2017...Time flies faster than a mach 2 Tomcat i can tell you......Seems like yesterday somehow.

[@access_denied1082]

Indeed

[@karldot]

can't wait will be the first to purchase

[@Honey-Crunch]

The one coolest aero movie until now in the human history.

[@TheFaveteLinguis]

Sh*t, I'll upgrade my computer, read all manuals and buy DCS only to fly this beast! Give you the bird.

[@frodrigues2008]

youre so noughty.......the bird now is the Mig-21....if the F-14 is good enough then leartherneck simulations is the best.

[@zellhaufen8583]

I bet it will share the sound with the Su-25 as all Leatherneck planes do ;)

[@topnewsfun6415]

This is rely good

[@petrmitchell4442]

Good news l cant wait to fly back in my favorite plane :-)

[@frodrigues2008]

You must be a good Pilot...........

[@sasquatchycowboy5585]

I latterly went catatonic when I saw this announced. If any one can do this right, LN can.

[@ChuckOwl]

They're awesome. :) I mean, who else is badass enough to put "Evil Corporate Overlord" in their forum signature?

[@Lagmaster33]

How could i have missed the news 'till this day? Does the module include volleyball mini game and 80s soundtrack?

[@ChuckOwl]

Shirtless dudes, aviator glasses, non-regulatory cowboy hats, baby oil, homoerotic tension... you'll have it ALL modelled in-game! Um, maybe not... ;)

[@josh_jc_cheng]

and no one realize those LSO look at that tomcat with that face because he just got a 1 wire

[@rasheedgregory3459]

I hope the plan on adding more jets and warbirds

[@ChuckOwl]

So do I. I still have a soft spot for old prop warbirds though. ;)

[@rasheedgregory3459]

Chuck Owl Your not the only one. They need a plane selection like war thunder and il2 and have as many jets as possible from wwii all the way to jets thats in service now. But thats just my opion.

[@ChuckOwl]

I share that opinion as well, mate.

[@sasquatchycowboy5585]

rasheed gregory It'll take many years to get there, but I agree. I really want to see some more gen 3 stuff as well. I truly hope the mirage 2000c comes to fruition, and an F-5E would just be too much. That'll give us some realistic targets for our tomcats. Oh and add an f-4E too my wish list, even though I really hate that pig. And an Ah-1s or Q. Yes I have some high expectations or this sim.

[@ChuckOwl]

SasquatchyCowboy Some interesting birds have been announced (Mirage F1 and F-104 Starfighter by AvioDev for instance) and LN is supposed to make another big announcement next week. I can't wait to see what they have in store next.

[@frodrigues2008]

You have to make it better than the Mig-21

[@archangel01]

all we need now are some f5!!!!

[@ChuckOwl]

Don't you mean the "russian MiGs" of the movie? ;)

[@flare2000x]

Chuck Owl "The brand new, advanced, and dangerous MiG 28!"

[@ChuckOwl]

... "that never actually existed but whatev's" :)

[@sasquatchycowboy5585]

Yes, an E model would be really fun.

[@smokingspitfire1197]

Belsimtek (i think) announced that they are making an F5 for DCS

[@Ultranationalist941]

Is this going to be a full simulator or is it going to be simplified like the F-15C , Su-27?

[@ChuckOwl]

Full simulator, just like the MiG-21bis and the A-10C.

[@Ultranationalist941]

Chuck Owl YESSSS.... ready at the back? HERE WE GO!

[@Cybermat47]

Between the F-14 and the F/A-18, I'm afraid I have to go with the F/A-18. Why? Well, the RAAF flies the F/A-18, and that automatically makes it better :D

[@MarksUselessChannel]

+Cybermat47 How sweet will it be to have BOTH, and carrier ops...

[@SkyhawkDriver]

But do you have AIM-54s?

[@PhillMagGamerDad]

Was Leatherneck renamed to Heatblur?

[@ChuckOwl]

They split up into two groups: Magnitude 3 (MiG-21bis + Christen Eagle II) and Heatblur (Viggen + Tomcat).

[@PhillMagGamerDad]

@@ChuckOwl, makes sense, thanks Chuck

[@Fsone174]

What's the status on this?

[@wumbologytm4466]

F18 coming out first :D

[@F22raptor46]

+WumbologyTM But when?

[@wumbologytm4466]

+Stormsquad idk. All we know is "soon"

[@timn4481]

yawn..yet another f14... how about a mig 25 or 23?..31?
