/images/notams/notams22/dcs0121.jpgWe have made tremendous progress on the AH-64D. Release ready itemsinclude the external model and internal cockpit models, pilot andgunner high resolution models, external and internal lighting andsounds, IHADS, MPD pages, PNVS, TADS and sensors, 30mm cannon, Hydraunguided rockets, laser-guided Hellfire missiles, the ASE, CMWS,George AI pilot and phase one of the DM. Despite suffering from the most recent variant of COVID-19 the teamhas accomplished a minor miracle and the Early Access is very close tobeing available for release. However, certain aspects still requireextra polish notably; flight control system heading, attitude andaltitude hold modes, MultiCrew, cold start, George AI co-pilot gunner,certain crew animations and system damage effects. We understand that our decision to delay the early access releaseis frustrating and disappointing. Please accept our apologies. Ourcommitment is to deliver this exciting new aircraft to you in thenearest future, hopefully in February. Thank you for your patience andunderstanding.

/images/notams/notams21/dcs0916.jpgDCS: AH-64D | TSD Sneak Peek: In this AH-64D sneak peak, we'll look at the Tactical SituationDisplay, or TSD. The TSD can be displayed on either multipurposedisplay in the pilot or co-pilot/gunner cockpits, and it will be yourprimary source for navigation, situational awareness, storing points,and more. The TSD can be interfaced with using the fixed and variable actionbuttons arrayed around the MPDs and the TSD cursor for hands on cyclicand collective TSD control. You can select between chart, satellite,and digital moving maps. Both Navigation and Attack phases can be selected, and storedpoints can be created and set as an acquisition source. Source

/images/notams/notams21/dcs0904/dcs-ah64d-4.jpgThis week, we have prepared some In Development Screenshots of thePilot and Co-Pilot/Gunner cockpits of this beast. We hope thesework-in-progress images will provide you with a glimpse of what is tocome and start your cockpit familiarisation. We await yourfeedback. /images/notams/notams21/dcs0904/dcs-ah64d-3.jpg /images/notams/notams21/dcs0904/dcs-ah64d-2.jpg /images/notams/notams21/dcs0904/dcs-ah64d-1.jpgSource If you like the look of the DCS AH64D, then why not head on over tothe store and check out the Virtavia version for FSX: Virtavia - AH-64D Heilcopter for FSX

/images/notams/notams21/dcs0828/ah64d-1.jpgWe are nearing completion of the DCS: AH-64D external model, andwe'd like to share our progress. Visible on the wingtip is one of theCommon Missile Warning System (CMWS) sensors that can passively detectsurface-to-air and air-to-air missile launches using in-bandultraviolet detectors. It can then manually or automatically engagethe Chaff and Flare dispenser as part of the Aircraft SurvivabilityEquipment (ASE) suite. We are also working on the external stores and pylons that canarticulate to provide launcher elevation. When landing, the pylonsautomatically translate to ground stow mode, so that they are parallelwith the level terrain. Several skins will be provided for the U.S. Army and several othercountries. During the Early Access period, functionality of the FireControl Radar (FCR) that sits on top of the main rotor will be madeavailable. /images/notams/notams21/dcs0828/ah64d-2.jpg /images/notams/notams21/dcs0828/ah64d-3.jpgSource If you like the look of the DCS AH64D, then why not head on over tothe store and check out the Virtavia version for FSX: Virtavia - AH-64D Apache Longbox For FSX

/images/notams/notams21/dcs0226.jpgThe AH-64D is capable of adapting to several roles within thecontext of close air support tasking. In addition to the 30 mm M230single-barrel chain-driven autocannon, it can carry external storesand weapons on its stub-wing pylons. Equipment we are planning torelease includes: Mission EquipmentSighting SubsystemIntegrated Helmet and Display Sight System (IHADSS)Modernised Pilot Night Vision Sensor (MPNVS)Modernised Target Acquisition Designation Sight (MTADS)Night Vision Goggles (NVG)Armament SystemsArea Weapons System (M230E1 Automatic Gun)Rocket Management Subsystem (2.75 Inch Aerial Rocket)Hellfire Modular Missile System (Semi-Active Laser)Weapons pageDefensive SystemsOne chaff and two flare dispensersAirborne Survivability Equipment (ASE) pageCommon Missile Warning System (CMWS)Radar Warning Receiver (RWR)Dedicated designers are also working on photo-realistic cockpitdetails and labels. In parallel, work continues on the external modeltextures. The flight model and flight control system are highly complex anddemanding. We are confident that the fidelity will be very high atEarly Access. Much more information on the development of thissophisticated attack helicopter will be coming soon. Source

/images/notams/notams21/dcs0108.jpgPerhaps our biggest new aircraft project for 2021, the AH-64D willbe the most accurate and detailed simulation of this iconic Americanattack helicopter. Like the Mi-24P, it will feature front- andback-seat operations in single player and multiplayer. Based on a 2002Block II version, the AH-64D will be armed with Hellfire anti-tankguided missiles, unguided rockets, and a head-tracking 30mmcannon. The early access AH-64D is planned for release in the 3rdquarter of 2021 and will be available for pre-sales as of February2021 with a 30% discount. Note: Due to new Russian Federation laws pertaining to thegathering of information of Russian military equipment, we have had toreconsider our plans to add new systems to the Ka-50. We continue tomake the updated cockpit freely available, as well as a highlydetailed updated external model. Source
