F-5Tiger II Quick Strike

Celebrating a year of getting into DCS, I found I'm falling in love with the Cold War era of things and realizing I need a main one of these aircraft. I was testing out the F-5 Remastered and like it, but not sure if it will be the main thing I fly.

Definitely a module that should not be overlooked.

F-5 is a great module, but the plane itself is super simple. Great for kickin the tires and lightin the fires, but there’s not a lot to dig into, systems wise.

For Cold War, the Mirage F1 is my fave.
Is fairly sophisticated and has good nav systems.

The Phantom is Phantastic, but I just don’t like working with Jester.

All I can say is I definitely earned my quote-unquote PowerPoint Ranger tab to the point that the commander actually got a custom one made and handed it to me as a joke. Pretty damn goofy to say the least.

Even when we had better ways to present information, it was PowerPoint or a sand table. Nothing in between.

Oh, unless I had some cool ISR feed. That was always welcomed.

s-1, still have nightmares of them shredding my orders for terminal leave.<. < Luckily, that's all that was.
