What does this entail- the Falklands?

That's the best guess, and there is a harrier in the game now.... :sign13:

And apparently a Mirage III coming, not to mention the Comunity A-4 project  :thumbsup:

DCS has a Harrier?

I am at a loss for how anyone would make a good map out of the Falklands.  First, the islands themselves appear rather .... desolate of anything.  Other than rocky coast line, and a bunch of grass,  there is really nothing in the way of towns or airports.  I can't even really find a freakin forest for that matter on Google maps.  And the airports that are there are rather small.  So, if the map stretches out to the coast of Argentina, there isn't going to be much to work with, and will be mainly limited to Carrier ops.   
Don't get me wrong, if released I'll buy it, and make some missions for it. Just not sure how much one will be able to do with it.

Not to mention that, other than a non-historic version of the Harrier, there aren't any planes that go with that map.....yet. However, given Apache's observations regarding the islands, one can probably assume at least two things, it will be a fairly easy/quick build and the load times/fps for it will likely be pretty good. Regardless, like Apache, I will definitely be getting it with the idea of building Hornet missions on it!  :thumbsup:
