The cockpit has also received significant attention. Although Eagle Dynamics has not confirmed any systems changes, newly released screenshots reveal a dramatically improved level of detail throughout the cockpit. As NineLine described it:
“The screenshots speak for themselves; these are not renders, but screenshots from the viewer. The cockpit is top-notch, the best you’ve ever seen. The level of detail in every single element, even the smallest, is exceptional.”
The Su-25A is one of the six aircraft included in the long-running Flaming Cliffs 3 package, alongside the F-15C, Su-27, Su-33, MiG-29, and A-10A. As one of DCS World’s oldest aircraft collections, Flaming Cliffs has gradually been receiving updates to bring its modules closer to Eagle Dynamics’ new and improved quality standards.
DCS: MiG-29A represents one of the most extensive Flaming Cliffs upgrades to date, introducing a fully clickable cockpit, an updated flight model, and completely redesigned internal and external models. Eagle Dynamics is also developing the F-15C along a similar path, with plans to transform it into a full-fidelity module.
Eagle Dynamics has not announced a release date for the updated Su-25A, but the material shared so far suggests the project is well advanced.
