I don’t know if it’s just me, but I find myself ‘flying’ the more sophisticated mods as much as or more than the paid modules sometimes. The A4, the Blackhawk, the Bronco. They are less complex, sure, but sometimes I just want to fly and blow stuff up without having to review full checklists etc. Don’t get me wrong, I’m familiar enough with the Viper these days and sometimes I do want the full service. But if I’m sitting down for a hour or so the Bronco or the A4 definitely scratch an itch. And as they are both ground attack focussed I probably have more fun as I’m not that good at A2A fighting, even when flying against the Ace level AI :D.
I agree, tho the simplicity for these mods also comes vecause they are older aircraft and had simpler systems. I do love ground attacks, not good at A2A either :P
Very good video as always! I knew this mod thanks to a friend and I love it! I would really like more content with this plane such as anger management...
This is awesome, I didn’t even know it was a thing. How do I get to experience this? I have loved this plane since reading a book about it in the Vietnam war
I installed this mod but there is problem with landing gear, the wheels are moving up and down always. Is there some posibility to write about bugs to authors of this mod?
That's definitely a weakness, but I have noticed the plane is remarkably tough compared to other DCS aircraft. On multiple occasions I've lost entire wings and managed to limp home to an airfield and land safely.
Haven't tried the OV 10 yet, but generally these planes seem to be harder to get tracked by MANPADS and are very maneuverable, so they still can dodge missiles, at least on the C 101 it works. But anyway yeah, its still a weakness, but that what makes it fun
last I checked (not the current mod version so it may have changed) the AI flight model is not properly tuned/configured. I tried to dogfight against an AI bronco and as soon as the fight started it climbed to 50,000ft at mach 6.
Love to see an OV-10 "NOG" mod. A miniature version of the AC-130 Specter.
That would be amazing
Omg they just “ripped trough those trucks” :000
Smashed them
@@dcs_one absolutely demolished

Anger management will deffinetly be a video in the future
Absolutely love this mod!! The additon of the MkIV gunpod is amazing!
Mk4 gunpod eith the guns already on the plane make it a beast

Its a mod in DCS World and it is free! I also have a mod install tutorial on my channel
Good info!
Didn't know about this. They btought these back for a short period of time for SOCOM in Syria.
Oh I didn’t know that
Saw this beauty fly at El Toro Marine Corps Air Station in SoCal, back in the late 1980s! #awesome mod!
I bet that was nice to see. Really is an awsome mod!
Hello, any other server for downloading? MEGA has a download limit per ip, and it is impossible for me to download it completely. Thanks
Its the only link that I know of

In their discord
OK, I knew about this problem. It happens in Multithreading version and authors will not plan to fix it.
unfortunally without flares is a little useless for real combat, as soon there is a manpad is goodbye

Thats true but since you can make missions the way you like them in DCS, you can just not add manpads and stick with AAA for example
Q: can this act as AI FAC(A)?
I’m not sure but I bet someone on the split air discord could tell you. Here is a link: discord.gg/splitair-dcs
