    ***Small Update from Today's Weekend News***

    "
    Another item in development is the DCS: Supercarrier module. We recently completed the external model, and we plan to make CVN-71 & CVN-74 versions available at early access launch. The team is now focused on implementing the high-poly Landing Signal Officer (LSO) and Air Boss stations. Here is a list of the planned Early Access features, but this list is subject to change.

    Early Access Features
    1. New Nimitz-class aircraft carrier model:
      • Highly detailed polygon model.
      • High-resolution textures that include realistic weathering and markings
      • Animated arresting wires and blast shields
      • Animated radar antennas
      • Animated aircraft elevators
      • Catapult bubble between catapults 1 and 2
      • Steam from catapults
      • Risers (guard rails) around aircraft elevators when lowered
      • Long-range line-up lights
      • IFLOLS
      • Animated “rabbit lights” along landing area centerline
      • Deck lighting
      • Functional air defence weapon systems:
        • Sea Sparrow
        • CWIS
        • Sea RAM

      • Option for Nimitz-class aircraft carriers of the Roosevelt sub-class:
        • CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt
        • CVN-72 Abraham Lincoln
        • CVN-73 George Washington

    2. Deck parking allowing up to 14 aircraft to be spawned on deck. We will review the possibility of increasing this number to 18 in the coming months.
    3. Carrier radio communications for Case I, Case II, and Case III.
    4. Static deck vehicles (AS32A-31A Flight Deck Tractor, AS32A-32A Hangar Deck Tractor, AS32A-36 Aircraft crash and salvage crane, P-25 Fire Fighting Vehicle) that can be placed by mission designers.
    5. Static deck crew that can be placed by mission designers.
    6. Animated deck crew for bow and waist catapults launches.

    But is there progress on the earlier carriers that were supposed to be part of the Tomcat package?

    From HB Facebook post, 2018:

    "The mighty CV-59, Heatblur Forrestal Class carrier leaves drydock for the first time! While the art team begins the texturing process, we'll be bringing her systems and functionality online. The Heatblur F-14 project includes the free DCS addition of the Forrestal, Ranger, Saratoga and Independence Forrestal class carriers amongst other free included content!

    Thanks, NC
