My favorite mission to practice hovering in the Mi-8 and the Gazelle. Thank you!

I believe IRL the color filters are applied in front of the TV camera. The TV monitor would still be monochrome with greenish tint, but some image features (that pass more easily through the filter) would be brighter, while others would be darker.

The C-101 has decent performance if you take less fuel. It was designed for much longer range than the other two. The engine is also more fuel efficient.

... and operated ~300 CL-13 Sabres before the F-104.

+ one extra thing with the Su-33: you can use the auto-throttle during air refueling. Once it's on, you can increase/decrease airspeed in very small increments (1 km/h?) with the mapped key/button binds. Basically, if you get too far ahead, press the minus button to decrease the held speed, if you get too far back, press the plus button... A bit like car cruise control...

The night dimming mode of the radar warning receiver indicator (SPO-10) doesn't dim the lights or color them red when enabled. This is observed with the multi-threading version of DCS (and default cockpit). See attached screen capture:

From recent events...

I believe the rule for manual tuning is to multiply the ILS freq. by two for the Detrola radio scale, so 220 in your example. You can also set it in the mission editor -- on the radio settings, set the BC-1206 Initial Frequency to the ILS frequency in MHz (110.0 in your example).

If 1688 is used for the bombs, the Pave Penny laser spotter should also be set to it. Currently it works only when lasing with code 1113:

The liveries (texture) size also affects RAM usage in game. Hop on a populated server and DCS RAM usage exceeds 30 GB even on maps like Caucasus and PG which otherwise have modest RAM usage in single player.

Perhaps you could use the free 2 weeks trial to find out what they look like.

This solution helped me with the same issue:

The radar on that picture is Cyrano II from Mirage IIIE, the label on it is wrong. Cyrano IV on F1 looks like this:

According to some sources, the new engine is used on P2 and later models: https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/104557/aim-9-sidewinder/ http://www.ausairpower.net/TE-Sidewinder-94.html

Both the AIM-9P and the AIM-9P5 have incorrect values for engine thrust and time. In DCS, AIM-9B, AIM-9J and AIM-9JULI all have 2.2 seconds boost stage time and 17 800 newtons thrust. The AIM-9P and AIM-9P5 models also use the same engine (Thiokol Mk.17) and one expects to see the same stats, but instead they have 3 seconds and 18 800 newtons thrust, which is 44% more total impulse. Correction: The AIM-9P5 uses different engine: Hercules/Aerojet SR.116, but I couldn't find any stats for it. For reference: 1. Description of the Sidewinder variants: 2.
