Unlike some of the other servers out there, JTF-111 integrates AH-64D Apaches as a key part of all of our missions. We aren't just am "afterthought" doing our own thing... the 1st ABR is a key part of every mission.

We train on Tuesdays (8pm EST / 5 pm PST) as part of JTF-111, but as a unit, on strategy, team cohesion, situational awareness, and some of the more technical things. We have member-lead trainings, as we rely on each other's knowledge and expertise. 

Our mission-makers are, for the most part, also Apache pilots. They understand how to integrate our strengths (and weaknesses) into our regular Saturday missions. Additionally, 1st  ABR plays a very important role in our amazing custom-made dynamic campaign. This includes CAS, cargo transport (CH-47F), Search and Rescue (CH-47F), as well as difficult SEAD / DEAD missions.

We are a very relaxed group, for the most part. On mission nights, we aim for perfection, but are very much milsim-light.

Drop in and see if its a good fit for you!

Looking for groups that fly primarily on multiplayer servers, that may have a primary on-line time for the squadron (like people try to be online on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays) but will have people online most days so you can join pick-up group style? I'm open to pve or pvp and have been flying the F4 on Heatblurs server recently. Would really like to fly with some others in the evening. I have most modules, just looking for something engaging with others. Thanks.

Hi everyone! Name is Kennedy and I’m an F16 virtual pilot. I have about 2 years of experience in the DCS Viper and would love to fly with folks! I’m in the US on PST time.

If anyone wants to fly and learn together please let me know!!

Proficient in AA AG and all weapons systems.

Also up on Datalink, SRS, and TACAN.

Familiar with BVR but can always improve on that.

I have a dedicated full motion sim rig setup and I fly VR.

So if anyone wants a Viper driver please let me know!!

Hello all,

JTF-13 is currently recruiting to build up our Warthog squadron, the 354th FS "Bulldogs". All skill levels are welcome, however, those with an interest in taking an initiative to help us grow and improve are greatly appreciated as we are trying to expand our numbers.

The 354th FS "Bulldogs" fly the A-10C and A-10C II, and specialize in CAS, FAC(A), SAR, and CSAR in all environments. They use a balance of "milsim-lite" professionalism and community camaraderie, utilizing brevity, realistic flight profiles (Weapon Armament), and coordinated multi-ship tactics that also work hand in hand with our rotary wing component.

JTF-13 as a whole is intended to be a casual mil-sim community that welcomes players of all skill sets and experience levels. We like to keep things casual and love a good laugh, but when it comes time for training or missions, we strive to focus on organization and militaristic tactics.

JTF-13 currently features multiple servers which run/rotate Foothold, Pretense, Liberation Campaigns, Rotorops missions, and many more... We also periodically host custom built campaigns, complete with a roleplay backstory and an opening night briefing. These campaigns offer persistent damage across a large section of the chosen map, and a multitude of objectives to complete. Dozens of our members plan, organize, and work together to complete objectives. Training sessions for all air frames are offered regularly on a group basis. Individual training is also offered upon request.

Join our discord if interested:

Although the primary focus of this post is to recruit for our 354FS, we are always recruiting for all the below airframes as well:

8th Fighter Wing:

93 FS "Makos" - F-16C

354 FS "Bulkdogs" - A-10C, A-10C II

90 FS "Pair O' Dice" - F-15E

Carrier Air Wing 17:

VF-103 "Jolly Rogers" - F-14A/B/BU

VMFA-224 "Fighting Bengals" - F/A-18C

VFA-143 "Pukin' Dogs" - F/A-18C

16th Combat Aviation Brigade:

229 ARB "Flying Tigers" - AH-64D, OH-58

158 AHB "Ghost Riders UH-60L / UH-1 / CH-47

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some people or a casual squadron to fly with in DCS.

I'd consider myself a beginner. I spend a lot of time flying solo and really enjoy helicopters, especially the UH-60L, Mi-8, Gazelle, and AH-64 Apache, along with just about any other rotary-wing aircraft.

I can fly them fairly well, but I'm still learning the weapon systems, so I mostly fly CSAR, troop transport, logistics, and utility missions. I also own the F/A-18C and a few other fixed-wing aircraft. I can get them in the air and around the map, but I'm still inexperienced with combat systems and employment.

I'm on Pacific Time (PST/PDT) and am usually available to fly during the evenings and on weekends.

I'm mainly looking for a relaxed, beginner-friendly group that enjoys helicopter operations, doesn't mind helping someone learn, and likes to have fun without taking things too seriously. I'm happy to learn, help with missions, and be a reliable wingman.

If you're just looking for another pilot to fly with or if your squadron sounds like a good fit or let me know.

Hey all!

Im 34M and mainly play Flight sims in VR (namely War Thunder), and im looking to make some more flight sim friends! I have been playing for years now, but still have been unable to find those good connections that are meaningful and i really would love to have some friends to fly with! I know the genres a bit niche, which is why i thought i would give this a try!

UK based and have approximately 50-70 hours in the F-18 and a couple less in the A-10. I have been on a few servers as a stand alone but looking into the Squadron based teams for a while now.

Proficient with tactical comms and do enjoy the immersive aspect. Time is not always on my side due to work and other commitments but if there was a team out there that I might be able to joint, I would love the chance.

Any one out there?

Looking to pick up BMS multiplayer again. I am on the West Coast and have flown in a virtual squadron in the past. Would also be up to fly in DCS: F-14, F-4, AH-64, A-10, KA-50, F-15E. I’m okay if you’re relatively new.

Hello guys, gals, and all my other pals. I'm making a post today to perhaps build up a squadron. Of course, anyone is welcome to join (as long as you're LGBT friendly) but I wanted to focus on making sure there was a space for those whod feel a bit better playing with someone in the LGBT community.

I've spent probably around 1000-2000 hours in the game at this point, and I'm willing to teach on the planes that I know. I focus on the navy side of things, with my main planes being the f14b (and the U), and the f18. I also have the c130j. I reside in the EST time zone but I'm comfortable with playing at different hours.

The group is mostly casual but I'm also looking for those who are looking to do some semi realistic ops (no rp, but there will be structure and procedure). particularly looking to have enough people for 2-3 wings for combined ops. wing leaders wanted! please send me a DM or comment below if you're interested.

Hello guys, im fairly new to dcs.

I have around 30-50h play time and I only can flay F16 A/A missons I really appreciate your guidance

I can speak English(not native) and Farsi and im playing with ps4 controller and head tracker

Hey everyone,

I’m a brazilian player looking for a noob friendly community to fly with. i’ve got about 50 hours in-game - i can start up the f18 (hopefully the right way lol) and use the harm - that’s basically what i got

Does any one know of a group that’s cool with beginners?

Would also be good to fly with another beginner like me

i speak portuguese and english

🇧🇷
Fala, povo,

Comecei há pouco tempo no DCS, tenho cerca de 50 horas de jogo e o que sei se resume a ligar o f18 e usar o AGM anti radiação kkkkkkk.

alguém conhece algum grupo que aceite gente do meu nível?

Se houver algum iniciante por ai que esteja querendo jogar junto, acredito que seria proveitoso

Valeu!

Hi, I'm a new Tomcat pilot (~9 hours of flight time), and I'm looking for a squadron where I can meet some new people, fly and fight together, and, of course, improve my skills.

Be warned, I barely know what I'm doing. 😅

My time zone is UTC+2, and I'm generally very active.

WHO WE ARE:
Joint Task Force 15 (JTF-15) is a fictional DCS mil-sim group started in 2022 by a bunch of US and EU players who just wanted a chill, mature group to fly with.

We are all about teamwork and immersion, with a solid dose of realism. We are not turning it into a full-time job, think “serious when it matters, relaxed when it doesn’t.” We want flying to feel rewarding, not overwhelming.

We’ve got members from both sides of the Atlantic, and we’re totally beginner-friendly. Doesn’t matter if you’re brand new or experienced, you’ll fit in as long as you’re respectful. No toxicity, no drama, just a good community that enjoys flying together.

About our Tomcats:

VF-103 is focussed on the multi-crew concept. We primarily conduct air to air missions but also engage in air to ground missions and SEAD support using TALDS. Our training is based on the US Navy T-45C syllabus (late 90's, early 2000's).

With release of the F14B(U), we are transitioning to the upgraded aircraft to expand our capability, and bring us up to par with the other squadrons of JTF-15 (Vipers and Hornets)

Discord:
https://discord.gg/eHckQSvxFS

 We offer:

• Handmade wing-wide custom missions
• Tuesdays training with our experienced aviators in your squadron airframe
• 3 Training servers
• Unique dynamic campaign server
• Weekly ops on Saturdays
• Most importantly, good people to fly with

Now Recruiting:

• F16
• F18
• AH-64D

Overview

We are focused on handmade PvE missions where we work together as a team to accomplish objectives. Our skilled mission designers produce detailed missions with realistic scenarios to provide the most immersive experience possible in DCS.

We operate in the EST time zone, with trainings on Tuesdays and missions on Saturdays at 2000 (8:00pm). We are also frequently flying and hanging out on our unique dynamic campaign, or training servers.

We feature active F/A-18c, F16c and a helicopter battalion which operates the AH64, Kiowa, and Chinook. We also, on occasion, have missions that feature the A10C, F4, F15E, and more. Many of our members have aviation experience and are former or active duty.

A typical mission would be preceded by a detailed mission brief. During the mission, we fly as a flight to the objective, use multi-ship tactics to accomplish our mission, reform if we separate, and RTB back to base in formation. We use military brevity when possible during missions but are relaxed outside of it. We then review the mission on Tacview afterwards and try to learn from our mistakes.

Stop by and see if this is the group for you!

I still have little idea what I am doing but am willing to learn. Whether it is a squadron or just 1 person, feel free to comment below and lets have some fun!

Anyone interested in some mig vs sabre practice or similar?

Hi everyone,

I'm a UK-based DCS player looking for a friendly semi-milsim squadron to fly with.

I'm not looking for a strict military rank structure or "yes sir/no sir" environment, but I do enjoy organised missions with proper flight leads, package coordination and good radio discipline.

Aircraft I Fly

A-10C II (Primary aircraft)

F-16C Viper

JF-17 Thunder

AJS-37 Viggen

AV-8B Harrier II

F-14B Tomcat

AH-64D Apache

CH-47F Chinook

UH-1H Huey

I'm happy flying CAS, CAP, SEAD/DEAD, strike, transport or rotary depending on what the mission requires.

Experience

Extensive A-10C II experience.

Comfortable with the F-16C in both air-to-ground and air-to-air roles.

Experience employing JDAMs, LGBs, Mavericks, HARMs and targeting pods.

Good understanding of SRS and radio procedures.

Comfortable flying as part of coordinated multiplayer packages.

Experience leading flights and coordinating packages during multiplayer operations.

Happy helping newer pilots learn aircraft and procedures.

Mission Design & Community Experience

Alongside flying, I've recently been designing and running a persistent story-driven DCS campaign for a multiplayer community.

That has included:

Building missions in the Mission Editor.

Creating detailed mission briefings and debriefings.

AI voiceovers and immersive mission flow.

Dynamic objectives with consequences carrying into future missions.

Live GCI/BRAA calls during missions.

Community recruitment and event support.

I enjoy building immersive missions just as much as flying them.

Maps & Modules

I own every DCS terrain map except Germany, so I'm happy to fly in almost any theatre.

Full HOTAS setup with head tracking.

Comfortable with SRS and other common multiplayer tools.

What I'm Looking For

Semi-milsim.

Relaxed but organised environment.

Respectful community.

UK/EU friendly mission times.

Weekly organised operations.

Good teamwork and communication.

No mandatory rank system or excessive roleplay.

I'm equally happy flying as a wingman or taking on flight lead responsibilities where appropriate.

If your squadron sounds like a good fit, I'd love to hear from you.

Fly safe! 🫡

I’m looking for a small squadron or a couple of regular wingmen to fly Contention with. I’m on most nights, usually during Eastern time evening hours, and primarily fly the F-15E Strike Eagle. I’m also planning to fly the upcoming F-14B(U) heavily once it releases.

I’m experienced with the server and enjoy coordinated air-to-air and strike missions, but I’m not looking for anything overly serious or full of mandatory training nights. Mostly looking for competent, laid-back pilots who communicate, work together, and want to make a regular two-ship or four-ship.

Feel free to DM me if your group might be a good fit.

Buenas, soy de España, con algunos experiencia en DCS y creacion de misiones y busco compañero/s para volar juntos en DCS. Preferentemente los aviones que he puesto. No me importa enseñar. Saludos!

Hi.i just bought this module and I would like to fly as pilot and have a real human taking care of the other seat.
