  1. Yep, people think the jet they fly should do everything and anything. Every jet, if modeled properly has strengths, and it has weaknesses. Learn those, of your jet and your opponents jet and go from there. Those who run to daddy whining about balance, need to go play War Thunder.
  2. I honestly don't see how the Eurofighter can't come out this year when it was shown so heavily on the 2025 video. But you are correct, it sure seems that way.
  3. JTIDS, SIT, ToT, TSD improvements, plus a lot more.
  4. Nice to see that! Guess if they are looking for liveries then things must be coming along pretty decently.
  5. Been over a year since any real updates. Hope it is still being worked on.
  6. Easy, get in the books find what the max cruise range is for an altitude, check your fuel flow in the E models' case x it by 2 and you have your POUNDS per hour burn rate. Not a percentage of fuel burn rate. Percent is only in the in game refuel/rearm box. There should at least be an option for it and also an option to stop refuel whenever you want on the ground. Sort of like the AR disconnect.
  7. So I can load and see what's in each tank exactly.
  8. Can we get pounds instead of % for the fuel load, and maybe an easier way to load the fuel on the jet?
  9. Yeah IRL the boom is much, much more stable. From what I have heard from IRL pilots that I fly with it does indeed hold you in place pretty much. There isn't as much give in it and it basically drives you around. The boom psychics need a massive overhaul and to me, this isn't something that will take very much to do.
  10. 1000 percent agree on this as well. It is a much needed feature. In the 16, you can put the bingo stuff in the HUD. In the F15E, you have to look down and to the left to see the totalizer and that can take some focus off of the fuel unless you have a WSO. When you call the tanker up, you select and amount in thousands of pounds.
  11. Thanks man. Your product is really really awesome and it is beyond me ED doesn't incorporate it.
  12. Any plans to add F15E aim points?
  13. Yeah sometimes it gets a bit confusing for me here and there still. The -9 is altitude below your aircraft correct? Also the dashed bars instead of a 2 digit readout means what exactly?
  14. Yeah, you can finger f*ck every single waypoint into the system. Just input the Lat/long or the UTM coordinates and voila. Might take a little time though.

    ILS Landing

    Agreed, ILS and ATC vectors are something that is sorely missing DCS especially in bad weather or at night. Hopefully that is something that they can fix soon.

    DataLink?

    don't disagree. Yeah, the radar is great, but you can't see what's next to you or behind you or whatnot. It needs to come sooner than later IMO.
  17. The F15E has a better CAS system than the C model and that one only requires trim on takeoff, weapon asymmetric, and if you want landing. Post takeoff, once it is trimmed back to level, it is supposed to stay there, power on, power off no matter. The only time it doesn't iirc is when using burner and I don't think a lot of people understand this. For me, right now in the sim I have to turn the CAS switches off, then on again and the jet flies just as it is reported to be flown. I am not the only one that has this issue and it certainly doesn't line up with how the 15 is said to fly. This is coming from a real life 15E guy and other documents out there. Go watch the 10 Percent True podcast with the F15E driver. He said you could see the velocity vector bouncing up and down as it sought to maintain level flight. That doesn't happen in the sim right now. While not true FBW it is damn close to it in how it performs, and the only real difference is it allows you to over G the aircraft.
  18. I still think, based on feel, that after takeoff turning OFF the CAS switches then turning them back on evens the jet out.
  19. The FM is getting better but it still "wanders" too much for an F15.
  20. Title says it all.

  21. Tacan is broken, you need to push the T/R or REC button to get the dme and course. The lights don't show up anymore but you will get the info.
  22. Hey Juice, try this. Around 150, pull the stick back about 1/3 to half and hold it there. The plane will start flying when it wants to and when it lifts off, relax the stick a bit at the same time. Then, put your gear up, then the flaps and be ready to trim the nose down. That's how its really done in the F15.
  23. In the manual it is supposed to be the left multifunction switch, but I think its broken still.
  24. Yeah I have noticed this too. Its not working.
