The Toad is a shocking amount of fun. More people should fly it tbh.

Didn't know the froggy T was on Enigma's, I will have to check this out...

Contention

[@agidotexe7167]

seeing it from this angle i get why you were panicking now 😆 me and Sovereign had a few close calls but yea that was next level haha

So... what server is this?

[@sunapse1055]

it's in the title

[@risingsun9595]

The Su-25T desperately needs a model upgrade from ED...

[@Joemate23]

They did inside but the outside is still poor

[@risingsun9595]

@@Joemate23Really? Still looks pretty 2014 inside the cockpit...

[@BumpyLumpy1]

@@risingsun9595 to me it looks far better. it looks a bit darker and the dials are easer to read, and small details are less blurry.

[@RoamingAdhocrat]

Given it's practically a fictional aircraft, I think they should mothball it and spend their efforts elsewhere. make another aircraft the default aircraft - F-5 perhaps

[@tarraux5971]

Joemate has the same voice as Severus Snape from the Harry Potter movies. And that's great

[@BarkerVancity]

the plane needs more love.

[@GoldenGnu]

I really wish they would do a full fidelity S-25T

[@EuropaTelesBTR]

Effective and beautiful Soviet plane

[@MrScar88]

Frog gang, represent.

[@giangi6913]

is the su25 stable in DCS? I play war thunder Sim and I find the su25 incredibly unresponsive on the elevons, doesn't have any sort of auto-stab and I have to fiddle with the trim continuously, makes it really hard to do gun runs or to keep the plane stable while guiding a missile, does the T get any update on the standard 25 in DCS? I might have to make a bug report to Gaijin if I find any info on elevons stabilisation.

[@maxwellwarde1715]

yes it’s stable. warthunder flight models just suck huge butt. it’s actually arguably the most stable weapon platform for a2g rn besides the a10

[@Cyyanss]

It’s very stable, the trim up and down does shift a lot during flight due to altitude/weight loss after expending ordnance which requires some work. Only annoying thing is the elevators are only just good enough so it maneuvers like a bus.

[@brentg2947]

No Diamond SAM hud marker?? i’m not real familiar with the SU - 25T, but I thought the hud shows Sam threats? Is it disabled on Contention? Enjoyed the video, could feel the tension😅

[@Joemate23]

When you take the elint pod in the middle it does

[@GipsyDanger41]

they only show up if you take the ELINT pod

what mod makes the froggy sound so good?

I'm pretty sure if you can lock a target it's not dead

[@dangerdorito1107]

out of pure curiosity , which sever is this?

[@Joemate23]

I asked for it

[@Hulle19]

SPS Contention 80’s (Syria), it’s great you should try it out. Quite ’hardcore’ but very fun for the people who likes a more dynamic and intense battlefield.

[@WayneHaworth]

Does red have red only aircraft?

[@conductingintomfoolery9163]

They got f16s

whats server

[@mikeck4609]

I spent several hours on contention, and even though it showed 9 to 12 people on SRS nobody said a word for the entire three hours, except for me and my radio check. Are they using Discord or something else? Can Anybody who plays the server regularly advise?

[@commanderstud2417]

I think people use discord because it’s easier

[@Joemate23]

Just depends who’s on I only ever talk shit on SRS sometimes the od tactics but that’s mainly saved for my pals on discord

[@mikeck4609]

@@commanderstud2417 ive never used discord for that. cant imagine anything easier than SRS. I just figured people would want the "realism" of communicating via the aircraft radios on set frequencies. But, seems to be this way on most servers except Hoggit Cauc. Still a great server tho

[@RoamingAdhocrat]

use SRS, on a private channel if you like, and enjoy the radio simulation :)

[@davezed3677]

What server?(pls find me😏)
