  1. Just for the complete picture when referring to Greek birds, We (HAF) have 4 versions, at the moment: - Peace Xenia 1 program: F-16C/D Block 30 (F110-GE-100 engine, APG-68(v)5 radar) - Peace Xenia 2 program: F-16C/D Block 50 (F110-GE-129 engine, APG-68(v)7 radar) - Peace Xenia 3 program: F-16C/D Block 52+ (F100-PW-229 engine, APG-68(v)9 radar with MMC5000) - Peace Xenia 4 program: F-16C/D Block 52+ Advanced (F100-PW-229 engine, APG-68(v)9 radar with MMC7000) PX 2/3/4 birds will be upgraded to F-16V standards using AESA radar. The PX2 bird (and its manuals out there) are very close to the standard (not upgraded) USAF F-16 of close to 2000-era, so good base for DCS information. Only different system is the Greek ECM/RWR suite ASPIS.
  2. Exactly. Moreover, the "viewer" should start identifying and distinguishing real (active) missiles (yellow/brown marks on the body) versus captive/training weapons (blue marks) and everyday operations-missions. The real -120 missile should go back to weapons depot/maintenance every 6; (IIRC) flights, to check overall status and structure quality for any cracks due to the g-load and fluttering forces. The captive missiles don't have such tight limits so can be used much more times with no issues or detailed inspections.
  3. I can tell you about what happens if you load the A-2000 (IRIS-T) missiles to the wingtips..: flutter forces will brake missile's wings. So A-2000 is certified to load only on stations 2/8 and 3/7. Not 100% sure but I believe there is a similar limit for AIM-9X on the wigntips. There are a couple only public photos of these loads in the wingtips, these are old and before newer tests and documented limitations.

  5. And the F-16 Block 70 simulator, part-1. ;)
  6. Anxious to see what's coming with the Viper! :thumbup:
  7. In real it is not dark, no HUD is dark. They have a special thin coat of chemicals sprayed in order to better reflect green color. This was primary designed for displaying FLIR green image on a HUD, and that coat is what makes it pink from the internal part only. So if one needs to actually simulate that effect on a HUD he should make it a bit pink, not dark/black.
  8. In what country? :-) JFYI in local market (Greece) cheaper price is 307 euros:.. https://www.skroutz.gr/s/3680528/Thrustmaster-Hotas-Warthog-Flight-Stick.html In what country? :-) Right now, here in Greece for example the cheapest is 350: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/310286/Thrustmaster-Hotas-Warthog.html I was one of the first to receive mine package back then, through a special offer and a specific dealer so they cost me 330 euros. The following months and depended the local supplier company and availability, they were priced from 350 to 450 euros.. BTW I did sell my throttle too 200 euros 2 years ago, so sure it all depends if an interested person can find and afford this throttle cheaper than in his local market. But anyway, I am only the one that hosted the sale info here, not the owner to judge my price.
  9. A friend is selling his new throttle, he only needed the stick. He does not have an account here since he is not involved to DCS tittle, so asked me to publish this here. Throttle is new in its original packing. Price is 200 euros, plus the necessary shipping costs from Athens, Greece. PM me if interest and I'll give you directly his personal email data so to contact him and request item pictures or any other details to continue the purchase process. Panos
  10. Government of Greece – Upgrade of F-16 Aircraft to F-16 Block V Configuration http://www.dsca.mil/major-arms-sales/government-greece-upgrade-f-16-aircraft-f-16-block-v-configuration :-)
  11. Grip electronics inside have not been touched, so yes one can attach the grip to a Cougar base / Warthog Base / FCC / FSSB and work immediately.
  12. Thanks buddy. Purchase price was 850 since these come directly from a block 50 model and are the NVG/NVIS rare version, so price is already down too much. I know they will go off to eBay just wanted to offer these to both site members first since they are working great and occasionally there is interest for this kind of gadget from the hardcore pit builders.
  13. As I wrote, the pins were the flat cable is connected were soldiered again without any problems. It is not difficult at all nor requires any special tool than the standard soldering equipment the average user can find in an electronics store. I have picture-documented the process of cleaning and soldering if anyone is interested to see the small details in there, but anyway they both work great and tested, they were just removed from my F-16 pit construction since due to limited space the project took an alternative path. And yes, they are aleasy offered to VP members since a couple of weeks, this is an extra sale offer here if someone is interested before going up to eBay.
  14. Thank you m8. Can an admin/moderator please move my 3 post to the appropriate area? Thanks in advance! Panos

  16. I am cleaning my closet, so up for sale is an extra Cougar Stick grip I have left. It has been modified with the correct DMS hat and a new design paddle switch (costing almost half the sale price). Cougar base / electronics are not available with the grip, connection adapter is attached to the grip normally. Last couple of years was just an exhibit item on my desk after I moved to Warthog but it is fully functional. If no interest is found here soon then it will be also offered through eBay. Sale price is 90 euro. You can view pictures of the grip downloading this 3.97mb .pdf file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7559899/%24y7Vea%40%403q/2.%20SELLING/Cougar%20Stick.pdf If you decide to purchase them, consider the below to have been read and accepted: - Payment is done through PayPal or direct bank transfer to my IBAN account. - Sales price is A. - Shipping price is B. - PayPal fee is C (3.9% of A+B). - Total price is A+B+C. - Buyer decides method of shipping with/without insurance and tracking, on behalf of what I can offer. - Regardless of shipping method chosen, when shipped it is out of here for good.

  17. Hello fellow members, I am cleaning my closet, so up for sale is a pair of real & rare, used MFD bezels, the NVG green backlit version coming from a latest F-16 block. Also included in the sale is a Flight Systems Ltd. connector board and a Plasma MM2 usb controller to quickly hook them to a pc. I can provide a working profile template for the Plasma if buyer needs to. The original MFD flat wires where cut short, so no original pin connectors where available. Moreover in one MFD the wiring connection on the back was bend too much so I had to re-soldier it as best as I could. It works ok but cannot guarantee that forcibly bending it to install it to a sim construction will not damage it again. Buyer should accept that he may have to perform some new re-soldier attempt to fix any issues, but should not considered something difficult specially if one has the appropriate tools. Nevertheless, I am selling these cheaper than what I've purchased them some years ago. If no interest is found here soon then these will be also offered through eBay. Sale price is 750 euro. You can view pictures of the MFD bezels & boards downloading this 12.9mb .pdf file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7559899/%24y7Vea%40%403q/2.%20SELLING/MFDs_NVG/MFDs_NVG.pdf If you decide to purchase them, consider the below to have been read and accepted: - Payment is done through PayPal or direct bank transfer to my IBAN account. - Sales price is A. - Shipping price is B. - PayPal fee is C (3.9% of A+B). - Total price is A+B+C. - Buyer decides method of shipping with/without insurance and tracking, on behalf of what I can offer. - Regardless of shipping method chosen, when shipped it is out of here for good.
