It'll be interesting. MANPAD range is significantly reduced against piston powered aircraft. Just isn't hot enough

Sounds like they're pocket-AH fans.  :aok

Can't be bad, might turn some jet dweebs into prop dweebs.

I think this is going to be slicker than owl poop...I can't wait to get that puppy in the air in the DCS engine with how it handles all the stuff with the A-10 and now BlackShark 2. They have a very dedicated group that does a bunch of work and turns out a quality product.

That Mustang is beautifully done. Someone definitely did their homework and had a decent poly-texture budget to work with :)

Come a long way from the first texture mapped few hundred poly 'Stang in Air Warrior :)
