Welcome to our Victor Romeo Sierra (VRS) community -- a laid-back group of virtual pilots brought together by a shared passion for flying, teamwork, and having a good time in the skies. Built around Digital Combat Simulator, our group is focused on creating a relaxed, welcoming environment where both experienced aviators and new recruits can enjoy everything from casual flights to coordinated missions without the pressure of hardcore mil-sim expectations. Whether you're here to learn, fly, or simply unwind after a long day, there's always a seat on the flight line for you at VRS!
Please take time to review the VRS Player Guide to help familiarize yourself with VRS, our server, and other important information. If you have any questions feel free to post in the #questions Discord channel.
This guide explains how to play the VRS mission from the BLUE side.
It is intentionally light on REDFOR internals and focused on what players can do.
