You could be interested in the built-in TOSS bombing capability. It allows you to throw bombs at a target using the Viper's FLCS+HUD as a basis. Check out this video:

Hey, I haven’t tried this yet, so i don’t have a track file, but in the manual it says it requires some time to actually verify the emitter. It may detect the emitter within the Scan Time on the HAD THRT page, but it would take longer to verify the emitter as the correct CLASS. It very well may be a bug from recent updates, but I would assume it’s some sort of backend thing we can’t see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I believe this is intentional. The inner circle on the F-16C RWR is intended to be a “Critical Zone”, so anything inside that circle is an immediate threat to the aircraft. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Something I noticed in Tricker's video is that he started pulling into the toss before the Toss Cue was flashing. This may not have a big effect, but instead of going off the cue it might be beneficial to go just before the cue, or immediately after it starts to hit the solution cue on the pull. So maybe I'd try to hit the pull right when the solution cue ticks back with the vertical steering cue. 100% not supposed to normally have that tick that was shown there but it may be a short-term solution before ED jumps on it?

Should SOI change with display switch/MFD page switch?
Rei replied to Furiz's topic in DCS: F-16C Viper
So according to the manual, (Page 94 of the Dash 34) I assume this means the TGP pylon is of higher automatic priority than something like the HAD, HTS, etc? Thanks for replying. -

Just got the track file working, and I see what you mean. I think it it because the FLIR is still in a background page and still technically selected by the pilot. I'm not sure if this is how it works in real life or if ED intended for it to be this way, but I've grown accustomed to using the DMS Down Short. -

I've always had to switch MFD page then cycle DMS Down Short to switch SOI. I'm having trouble loading the track file on my PC, so I can tell if that's exactly what's happening? -
Hello, I believe this has to do with the AI and recognizing threats. When your wingman turns hot after you've vectored him onto the SAM, that SAM is going to recognize it. The SAM's going to point toward your wingman and attempt a radar lock. Here's where the manual comes in. On page 286 it has the four color codes for SAM emissions. I assume the Red you are talking about means there is a Track or a Launch. Because you didn't mention any missile launches during this, I assume it means the radar has you tracked. So to answer the question, I think the best way to get these Red SAMs you want is to engage them. If it doesn't look like the pictures in the manual, it would be cool to see what this looks like on the HSD.

Here's my take based on what I can find in the manual. I'm guessing this has to do with the bottom graphic on page 284 of the manual. Essentially the ALR-56M RWR has a smaller Azimuth Resolution. On the other hand, the HTS AN/ASQ-213's Azimuth Resolution is greater. I'm not sure of the gimbal limit, but I would assume its somewhat close to the limit of the HARM WEZ. In the HAD screen of the HSD it shows the bubble that the HARM can engage in. I would assume that if the target exits this general azimuth it would become an RWR threat and drop off the HTS. If it comes to the RWR it would have a harder time wince the RWR has a smaller Azimuth Resolution. It seems like very specific possibility but it may be the solution. I think a track file would be good to have, just so the approach angle can be seen in the F10 map and the HAD HSD screen. That's my take, would love to hear from ED though.

The threat priority seems to just be the ALTITUDE/ALT threat button which just allows you to change between airborne (No amber LOW, only ALT) and ground contacts (amber wording: LOW seen on ALTITUDE button). Before this button was not implemented, but it essentially allows you to make ground targets a higher priority if you want, or leave it on airborne targets. See 1:18 in this video for more detailed info. (Fixed link)
