Hi Andre, thank you for the great content, HIP becomes one of the best newsletter for DCS. I also believe that your videos being followed by the ED guys that’s why I wanted to share some of my wishes here; Although Viper in DCS is one of the best modules, I still think it's half-baked. If you could provide updates on the sniper pod, other AIM-120 variants, LANTIRN, and the improvements in low-resolution texture areas, I'm sure the community would be very happy. After all, Viper is one of the best-selling and most-used modules.
I hate to say it, but quadrupling time estimates is generally best practice when it comes to DCS products. Q2 2025 is 4-8 months, which likely means 1-2 yrs.
@@ivaniuk123 I die quite a lot 😄 but it’s not even that. I love when the sim crashes at the end of the mission and then you have to repeat everything knowing what is going to happen 🥸
How can you possibly expect to pay an upgrade fee for a completely new module? The FC3 MiG-29 and the FF MiG-29A have nothing in common, it was created from scratch like the F-15E
Still waiting on the A-7E, A-1H, F4U-1D, F6F, A-6, C-130, EF-2000, MiG-23MLA, F-100D, F-8J, and the Kfir. a lot of these modules are probably dead or sitting waiting for the dev team to do something.
This is how rumors are spread. From our connections to most 3rd party devs, there is no such thing as a dead announced module. Razbam has their case now with ED in private, and the other devs are chucking on with development. You must be new to DCS or any flight sim, full fidelity modules take many years to develop, thats the reason behind the long wait, not lies and fake rumors spread by attention seekers and people who have an agenda against the only current combat flight sim on the market. Its sad, I hate the long wait too, but enjoy what we have until so far
@@hipgames Long waiting is not a problem. Most of us knows about it. Silence is a problem. For example Deka with their F-8 keep silence more than TWO or even THREE years. We doesn't care if they communicate with narrow circle of RUclipsrs. They must not forget about whole community.

@@Inv1ns1bl Understandable I guess. Thoug the mig23 and mig25 are old enough to be "obsolete" by modern standards are they not? Hell, I would accept these planes even in flaming cliff detail. I just crave more variety
Na. Been buying ea dcs modules for something like 10 years now. It's cool to try them out early. You just have to accept ea for what it is and always has been or if you can't handle it then wait
Thanks! Thanks for continuing with your awesome newsletters in 2025. Best wishes from Switzerland
Thank you for your support 🙏 I really appreciate it!
It certainly brings some slither of hope to see the MIG-29A release period, shining light on this module has brought me on my toes!
Thanks again for another great update! I love your channel and your positive approach! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the development report/update Andrei, nicely done. Happy holidays to you and your crew 🙂 Looking forward to more of your videos in 2025...
Merry Christmas Andrei and team!
I hope ED will still release a last update this year with some goodies for all our nice folks.
ME too... me too :)
@ and they just did. Just disappointed that there’s no talk about the second Afghanistan instalment.
@@johanverhoeven3661 they already talked about additions to Afghanistan.

What other news about RAZBAM?😕
Thanks for your entertaining and informative newsletters across the year. Hope you have a great Xmas and New Years :)
The Mig 29 is a much needed addition!
I'm very excited for the Mig-29 though i do wonder, will we have an iron fisted ground controller to go along with it??
You are not authorized to launch comrade!
Still nothing about “save game” for campaigns 😬
If you're not good enough to beat the mission without dying... then you're probably me because I usually die two or three times on average 😂
@@ivaniuk123 I die quite a lot 😄 but it’s not even that. I love when the sim crashes at the end of the mission and then you have to repeat everything knowing what is going to happen 🥸
@@ivaniuk123for me it’s not even the dying - I have a toddler and need to step away and resume playing hours later.
Happy Holidays Everyone!!! Another great video!
Feliz Navidad Andrei!!
Consider me excited! Great video my friend
We’ve been hearing about the A-7 for 4 years. I wish Heatblur, ED or some other 3rd party who actually wants to develope it would take over
Going to keep flashing Sabre Dog, going to have to produce at some point. We need those 20 mm cannons.
ED should seriously consider adding the Mig29A M. The mod that just released shows how its done and the base with the A model will be there.
Petrovic! Do we get to say it again? Gib Phantom!!!!
I am waiting for the A-1 Skyraider. Still hoping it is coming out soon.
Expect years if it ever comes out
You’ll be more likely to get it in IL-2 Korea as a premium plane.
What will be of the F15E? :(
Someone needs to do a full fidelity su27 😮
when they will make clickable cockpits?
I have a feeling i'll be playing exclusivly mig-29 for a bit when it releases
Q2 2025 means they will be announcing it will be delayed until Q3 2025, and releasing it Q1 2026
Q1 2026 half-baked.
They announced it over a year ago bro
Full fidelity MIG-29A is a dream for me, instant purchase guranteed 😍
Jeez, why a A model and not the K ? Would be much versatile fun to have a additional naval fighter.
Lack of documentation on systems, and probably a no-go from the Russian government to boot.
Disappointed we didn’t get the mig-29 this year but it’ll be a major advancement for multiplayer especially
new modules and new maps but no news about the strike eagle
Thank you Andrei
When will the Eurofighter be available as a full fidelity model? Greetings and Merry Christmas
Two weeks
Did they say early access in Q2 or "release" which can also be a pre-order ?
Early Access, no doupt!
So many planes from the Cold War. Now only the map of Germany Fulda Gap is missing!
Will be an upgrade possibility to the Fulcrum or must it be paid the MIG-29A complete as a new aircraft?
I can answer that with the new Fulcrum will be a completely new module with the usual price tag, it won't be an update to the existing Mig29s.

@@439sparky1 If you are referring to the Razbam F15E, the model was made by ED and a Contractor made adjustments only. If you meant the F-5, correct.
@@vimfuego8827 either way, it’s a FF module so it should have a FF price just for the work alone that went into it
@@439sparky1 100% agreed
EchoIndiaFox A-7? This is new. Don't you mean Flying Iron Simulations?
People complaining about the mig29a I get that’s why I’m excited but I hope the mod
Community brings some upgrades to it.
Hope that #DCS will soon release some detailed Russian maps! #russianmaps
im a noob. is this a hi fidelity model or no?
Yes, it will be a standalone high fidelity model 😊
@@hipgames sweet. i want it.
I detected message subtly imbeded when you asked yourself about the other simulations.
Heatblur should do the F4U. Please.
Someone else is already doing the corsair 😊
9:40 WHERE is EF 2000
in development, where we last left it :)
Please give us a euro fighter update 😭
So a hint for console? The reason we haven’t seen the new simplified version they are working on. Maybe for console players.
Still waiting for the AI A-6.... :)
Still waiting on the A-7E, A-1H, F4U-1D, F6F, A-6, C-130, EF-2000, MiG-23MLA, F-100D, F-8J, and the Kfir. a lot of these modules are probably dead or sitting waiting for the dev team to do something.
R.I.P to all these Modules…
I hope they aren't dead
Agree. After Razbam case, a lot of third party faded. Something wrong with ED.

This
I think Deka was going to do one but said they didn’t have enough info for it to be accurate enough
I'm happy we get a new full fidelity redfor aircraft, though it bothers me that it is not a new one.
I doubt we will get any new ones other than the jf-17 we have already, russia doesnt like developers poking around their modern military stuff.
@@Inv1ns1bl Understandable I guess. Thoug the mig23 and mig25 are old enough to be "obsolete" by modern standards are they not?
Hell, I would accept these planes even in flaming cliff detail. I just crave more variety
@@odysseus9797 23 was in development by razbam until the whole situation happened. anything made before the 29 is probably all good to be made
Still waiting on the a7 🙏
Wait?! Are you romanian?
PRO TV 📺 😊
Remember guys: never purchase a module until it is fully functional.
Na. Been buying ea dcs modules for something like 10 years now. It's cool to try them out early. You just have to accept ea for what it is and always has been or if you can't handle it then wait
Can any modules even be bought? (I agree fwiw)
@@Dracomarine well, or never rent and unfinished module ;)
please as a full fidelity Model 🙂, not as Flaming Cliff Model
It it a Full Fidelity Model
@@hipgames Thanks for the answer
Day 1251 of waiting for the eurofighter
