DCS World: P-51D High Stakes Campaign Released

P51D-Mustang-DCS-World-Eagle-Dynamics-Update-1.5.3Eagle Dynamics has released DCS World’s newest DLC, and this time you’ll be taking flight in the P-51D Mustang for a full-on story driven campaign. Coupled with the release is an overall update of the game to version 1.5.3.52478, or simply Update 4 of the current iteration.

The P-51 Mustang was a long-range fighter that could moonlight as a bomber and saw its heyday during World War II and the Korean War. By 1944 the P-51B had been largely phased out in favor of the P-51D, as World War II came to its rapid conclusion.

American in origin, the P-51 was developed as a solution to fill the bomber escort role. Thanks to the Mustang’s impressive range, it was initially considered a success. However, it soon became apparent that the Mustang’s engine would limit the fighter’s potential to fight at the USAAF’s desired 15,000 ft combat altitude. The Mustang’s next incarnation, the P-51A, overcame this limitation by outfitting a Merlin 61; this led to the P-51A seeing large scale production, with dogfight capabilities somewhat comparable to the British Spitfire.

In the latest DCS World update, the P-51D will be used in a story campaign which resolves around “a powerful business man and gambler named ‘Maslov.’” It seems Maslov has hired Vasily Sinitsa, a pilot-for-hire, to put the Mustang through its paces, but Vasily quickly learns that these tests might be a bit more dangerous than he realizes. The newest DLC stretches over 15 missions with each mission requiring a full completion before moving onto the next. As you might expect, all the missions will include briefings and maps, as well as kneeboard briefing and map pages.

The P-51D High Stakes Campaign is currently $9.99 USD.P51D-Mustang-DCS-World-Eagle-Dynamics-Update-1.5.3-1
