Due out in 2025 sometime. Details are kinda sparse, though they claim it'll have eight aircraft and the pictures show a P-51, Mig 15, and F-80. The F86 is also mentioned. I am looking forward to this.
I'm wondering is this will be in the same engine and merged, or an entirely new game engine and much higher specs
New engine.

It's a bit surreal to think that we haven't had a Korea flight sim for well over 20 years.

All major air wars that haven't been replicated in sim form in ages. Oh but we sure do have a plethora of Bf-109's we can choose from!

Strike fighters 2 has a great vietnam, middle east and very nice mods for DS and Falklands, but it's indeed quite old I remember Korea mod as lacking.. 46 has great mods for Korea too, and most likely some for Vietnam but I didn't try it.
I'd love to have a DCS full Vietnam set, and/or Korea. It would be nice too if we had 60s/70s/80s versions of existing DCS maps, since the planeset is already good. I could also buy FC3 like packs for those theaters.
And it was awesome. Not hard-core by any means but with a few mods I flew some very harrowing missions in the SAM/flak filled skys of North Vietnam.

So far DCS has the Phantom and the MiG-21. Hopefully one day we'll get a MiG-23 and an F-104!

Both the specific F-4E Heatbur chose to model and MiG-21bis in DCS are very late war if not post war, so they're not really (strictly speaking) Vietnam War aircraft.
The bis in particular is much better aircraft than what Vietnam had during the war.

As with everything with any upcoming project, it clearly states it's a work in progress... I'll reserve judgement until I see the finished item. If it's good I'll buy it, if it's not I won't... but I have to say, I'm excited about a proper Korean war sim.
So now we have a Korea AND a WWII Pacific flight sim in the works. Who said the flight sim genre is dead?
