Freeware DCS World developer Veco Simulations has just dropped a new status update video detailing the latest work on their T-38A Talon project. The two seat jet trainer project is coming along although the team also have shared that they have seen their share of bumps in the road. Let’s see how things are coming together!

Updates on the Talon

The team had initially hoped to release something in 2025, however, its now March 2026 and of course it hasn’t come out yet. Common for payware developers and freeware developers alike!

They are now four iterations in on the external model and 3D scans of a real world T-38 revealed discrepancies in the scale of the aircraft and they are keen to get the details right. They’ve also shown off the cockpit model which is looking really impressive for a module of any status, much less a freeware offering.

The Veco Simulations team are also busy working through issues with the flight model and adding multi-crew support with the ability to pass primary flight control between pilots.
