Catching up on Friday and weekend DCS World news with the latest updates coming in. DCS: F-16C has a new DTC based feature that allows for colour displays and information that should help the jet be even more effective. Meanwhile, Operation Wags has been a busy one over the weekend.


DCS: F-16C is one of the next modules to get some attention. A new MFD colour setting feature will allow for 40 different symbology elements with 8 different colour options. The description from Eagle Dynamics indicates that the coloured areas can be loaded in from the DTC and that the system can be used for everything from kill boxes to airspace boundaries and battlefield frontlines. Interesting.
Operation Wags
As previously reportedly, Operation Wags has been underway over this weekend and continuing next weekend. You can support Matt Wagner’s cancer fight here.
Operation Wags continues with prizes, multiplayer sessions, and giveaways next weekend.
Three REDFOR aircraft have been signed off on
Get speculating because three REDFOR aircraft have reportedly been signed off on by the Eagle Dynamics team. This according to Matt Wagner who is apparently doing a bit of work right now.
This was mentioned in the comments of the High Alpha Hooligans stream with Matt Wagner saying the following:
Over the past two weeks, we signed three redfor aircraft that I think many players we be very excited about. Look forward to their announcements.

Aside from the confirmation, we don’t fully know what the plans are going to be. An easy to speculate option would be that we’ll be seeing the Su-25A Frogfoot come in as a full fidelity module. It’s already been something that Eagle Dynamics COO Kate Perederko mentioned previously and it is an aircraft that is currently undergoing a significant update for its Flaming Cliffs variant.
The other two are much more speculative. A Su-27 Flanker may, thanks to the passage of time, finally be an option though it may be a cut down export model of some kind. It’s also would be a nod to Flanker 1.0 and 2.0 that helped start the series off.
As for a third option… your guess is as good as mine!
