Highly recommended. Viggen is just fun! It does air to ground like A-10 - but otherwise it's just polar opposite with completely different strengths & weaknesses. Cool cold war tech, wide variety of weapons & the speed! Plus it's just one of the nicest planes to fly. Lähetetty minun EVA-L09 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

They recently re-made the Viggen tutorials, and they're pretty good IMHO. Lähetetty minun EVA-L09 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

Is this still working or is there an issue with the Mission Editor? I try to add M1 (with the number appropriate to the waypoint) to the 'Navigation Target Points' tab - but it doesn't seem to 'stick'. Any text I add there is not there anymore if I go to another tab and it doesn't change the waypoint to target point. Waypoint does change to Target Point if I add Time on Target to it but there should be other way too? Also - how can I add L2 airfield in Mission Editor to the flight plan?

That's a clever looking setup - tidy, well thought out and good use of space. Only 'criticism' is the position of the speakers - certainly they would sound better positioned towards the listener and lifted up to the ear height? :)

New radar is in stable - but a fix for long range performance is still at beta. Its smooth as a butter now - I used to have performance issues too :smilewink: It takes atleast two weeks for the next update (ED is taking a little break due to the holidays) - so I'd stay way from 120km mode until then; or even better, go Beta :thumbup:

Yes - very much this. I'ts really not for us to speculate who gets what and why. And nothing wrong with laid back & not-so-serious approach to things - it's still great stuff for learning the basics & being entertained. Not everyone's cup of tea maybe - but certainly there's room for different varieties of DCS You Tube content?

Hah, I was wondering how a bridge got destroyed in a recent mission I flew. It was me all along, landing with a Viggen... Lähetetty minun T1-A21L laitteesta Tapatalkilla

How's your Viggen AI handling gun- & rocket pods? Mine aren't doing too hot. Im building a mission - but it seems the AI really can't use the gunpods or the rocket pods properly. Highest skill level. AI seems to fly really high and doesn't do a proper dive - in addition it fires ONCE (instead of a burst or a salvo) - and even those with crappy accuracy, trying to 'lob' them to the target really far away. And then breaks off, does a wiiiiide turn and repeats it with no success. F-5's in the same mission are doing splendid work with rockets - taking out targets. Oh, and it seems AI Viggen is using chaff even without chaff pods installed? :huh: Sneaky. What DOES seem to be working with Viggen AI is the RB-05 - bit too good actually as it's such a powerful weapon :D But sill pretty nice sight seeing a whole squad of Viggens turning in to the target and firing RB-05's almost simultaneously. :thumbup: Maybe I need to set up bit more beefier target than couple of trucks... :P

Thank you! Really nice set of missions - I highly recommend checking them out if you're flying the Viggen :thumbup: @MBot You don't happen to have any more missions you could share?

I'm sure we all have our personal preferences when it comes to YouTube DCS content creators (I'm just glad that there's variety of content being created by bunch of different people) - but all that I'm interested in right now is that some of them have the F-14 Tomcat module. And I really don't care who - I just wanna see some videos of the mighty Tomcat! :joystick: :D

Thanks for the awesome module & looking forwards to the final pieces of the puzzle! Most of all - the campaign :)

Awesome - that certainly makes this plane even more tempting! Lähetetty minun EVA-L09 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

Are there missions, campaigns and/or training missions planned to be released with the module?

Those who fly the Viggen have already been enjoying that level of immersion :)

Yeah well @Holton181 is probably right - probably doesn't make any difference if the release will be at 4G in any case. Most likely there just to make sure that the trigger is definitely being pressed once the release parameters are met (bit like A-10C CCRP release) - so that the trigger pull doesn't happen in the last possible second and release might fail because if the timing was bit off. Just guessing.

Well, 2x 23mm and a 37mm guns are AWESOME for strafing runs - so I wouldn't count out the MiG-15 just because of A/G. But sure, no rockets, and the bombs... atleast I can't hit anything with them - but the cannons... :joystick: Only bad thing is very limited ammo so have to use them sparingly. Whichever you choose - remember to take the Museum Relic campaign with it. Perfect campaign to get to know the plane.

So looking forwards to this! It'll be fun progression as I've recently gotten myself familiar with the MiG-15.

Are you sure? Reading the manual I understand it so that blinking line is the 4 second warning to pull up - but you start pulling the trigger right away? Atleast I've hit spot on with that method - could be beginners luck too... :D Well made video BTW! Viggen stuff can be bit tricky - videos like that are really helpful.

I tried couple times and it was working -- BUT I still had bombs on the racks after the attack. Not sure if just visual bug or half of the bombs failed to come off? It was always that the back rows of the bombs stayed on the racks on all of the racks. >ATTACK & ANF >LYS RAKT >Altitude 150m >Speed mach 0.9 >Pull trigger when distance line is blinking (and keep holding) >Pull 4g (follow ADI needle) >Stop pulling trigger when 'Fäld Last' light comes on What a beautiful string of lights!

It's one of the few Finnish Air Force jets NOT already in the game - will be great compliment to Hornet, MiG-21 & Hawk :) Hopefully flyable too at some point!

Thanks for the video - nice and smooth :thumbup: I'll get back to the pit and train some more :joystick:

I had a problem with the mission too - not sure if it was related to the infantrymen coming across the field. I shot them all expect one that was bugged in it's starting position that I couldn't see (I looked at a tacview replay to find what was going on). Infantry is bit annoying, they're so hard to see that it's practically like looking for a needle in a haystack. You need to be real close even for them to become visible in the first place. Next time I played the mission I smashed the infantry right after when they exited the vehicles, got them all, and the mission continued as normal, chopper getting up and so on.

I just bought the version 2 of the campaign but I'm not even bummed about it if I have to buy it again. Firstly, it seems super well made and interesting (I played 2-3 missions of it before I heard version 3 is coming so I started waiting for it) - and if there's something that is cheap in DCS, it's the campaigns. At least all campaigns I have purchased so far have been great value.

Awesome - can't wait to try it out! Lähetetty minun EVA-L09 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

Sorry, I meant just adding an extension - not adding a shorter extension, as I don't have any extension now :) But you're probably right - I've probably been trying to rotate too soon. Viggen seems to be much more happy to lift off the ground when close to / at 300kph.
