I do agree that it's helps when cranking. It's sadly though terrible if you want help getting eyes on target to see if they launched first.

The combat manual for 9-12 does not state anywhere that the SPO-15 can be operated with the radar turned on.

If I understand you well, you have 2 main points: - the jet doesn't degrade speed like you expect ; in this area I would say we are probably poorly equipped to judge as it is not very comparable in terms of aerodynamic design to the US jets you mention. For example the wing area of the Mig-29 is 38m², compared to 28m² on the F-16. My understanding is that the flight model is done based on publicly available data, which is plentiful considering the age of the jet. But I could be wrong here. - the jet's performance is "too fast". The fastest jet in DCS so far was the F-16C (in a drag race) with a thrust-to-weight ratio of 1.08 considering a clean jet with full internal fuel. The MiG-29A has 1.12 in the same configuration. Based on videos like GR's drag race test, the MiG-29 actually performs as one of the best, but not the best fighter in pure performance. The fact that it performs well at high altitude is probably due to its relatively larger wing area compared to its weight (it has a very similar empty weight to the F/A-18, similar wing area as well, but 0,5t higher thrust in full afterburner). All data comes from Wikipedia.

Planned by ED, but not dates.

Is link to Bing search of a document ok?

Folks please do not post documents without sharing a public link that shows it is 100% for the public. Please read our 1.16 rule thank you

And what connects radar to SPO-15 is not a flimsy bool singnal cable but a big shielded high frequency cable. I can only thinking of HPRF "Front mode" self blanking.

Sorry, this is a core DcS issue and ED should be looking at it. The end mission button is not supposed to be broken just because an AI took off from a carrier, and the solution is not to delete this AI but to make sure that button always works like it’s supposed to. @[ED]Ben BTW I never in my life had this problem, only some users do. There must be something else, something different. So I can’t even experiment and test what works and what doesn’t because it never happens to me.

You want to say the +1 were adding anything to the discussion? They were too lazy to even write the current sum. And calling people, who demand news after they were told the news will come when the team is ready to share, entitled, is not exactly an insult.

Yes I exactly. If you compare the F-14 and MIG-29, they have both two engines, but the MIG is much smaller (and has less weight) that could explain it. MIG-29A must be the smallest aircraft in DCS with two engines mounted? True

True, but with gear and flaps down, it should still bleed speed like crazy (in idle).

Thanks we will take a look, the controls indicator is fixed internally and will be in a future update.

Well, the 29a can reach Mach 2.3 for a reason.

If I recal correctly, isn't MIG-29A a pretty small and light aircraft (like the F-16) but in comparision with the F-16 it has two engines, perhaps it explains the high thrust to weight ratio. The MIG-29 has a pretty wide fuselage blended with large wings, perhaps that explains the high lift?

HB did that with the F4E (tickbox for reference aircraft), and I think it is a good thing to have that as an option.

I noticed when using this new shortcut the SMS page didn't go into "Strafe mode" like it does when you click the top left OSB button. Is this correct?

Bleeding speed in the Viper is a piece of cake. Especially when dirty. Try a back to back comparison with the Fulcrum. From my (very subjective) pov, the Viper feels "right", whereas the Fulcrum feels like it was covered in butter. Very slippery.

Same problem, same error, several crashes on both Germany and Caucasus. dcs.log

Very similar to F16, which is not surprising in my opinion.

The high lift and thrust seem consistent with what the Fulcrum is known for (I don't have any data, just from hearsay).... However, I would agree, that it seems almost impossible (in comparison) to bleed speed.

I'm seeing the same issue here after C&D start-up. I run the AFCS test with no problems except that I have to trim aileron and elevator after it's done. But even though these axis are indicated as neutral, after take-off it banks a bit to the left. Have no idea why this is happening but I just use the trimmer reset button as suggested above. But I don't get why I'm having this issue as well.

No worries, we are happy to look at the track and investigate.

Can we see any documents that state that spo And radar can work simultaneously?

Hi. This bug looks almost fixed now in version 2.9.20 .15010 patch. Only two or three slots get another new detour bug though, I'll report it in the new topic.
