Hello, Are you sure you are showing right video ? It looks like video presented is actually AN/ASQ-228 ATFLIR. Just being tested on F-16 and F-15 by Edwards.

The only 9.12A Warsaw pact export variant in inventory of Serbian Air Force and Air Defense. Donated in 2017 and was one of the last operational MiG-29A in Europe, if not the last. Short lived, btw. It was upgraded not long after donation to SM+ standard. Serbian serial designation number: 18151. Production year: 1989. (Paint scheme by Mariusz Wojciechowski)

I paid 5 EUR less on DCS standalone. Always buy first hand. Standalone gives you miles program. For example: when you pre-order mig-29A with price 55.99USD you will get 5.59 USD worth of discount for any other purchase. Updates are received before Steam, better discounts, a bit cheaper modules. Nothing is better on Steam, speaking of DCS.

This is from my Steam.

Steam is 5 EUR more expensive than pre order on ED E-shop. Price you see on Steam is already early access price reduced 13% for preorder. You don't get the full price of 80USD on Steam yet. Still purchasing on Steam is a bit more expensive, because they need to earn something for their service.

Really needed for air refueling, as well. Sometimes sun blinds me or blinds the hud.

For BVR ?

Damn. Currency conversions should be avoided as much as possible. I feel like no matter what I try, I loose some money there.

How did you even get your national currency on Steam? For me it is Euro.

Yeah, I know. That small detail really gives some charm to it. Of course, we can still fly without.

Thanks for thinking about me. But I'll manage somehow.

Good job !!!

This missed my attention. Wing flex should be the first thing delivered alongside flight and 3D models ! Now I am sad.

Not planned for launch ?

I don't know. I hear people call her like that. I am Serbian, we use Cyrillic which poses no challenge to me. Only certain words which are not simmilar and new for me. For example "Топливо", in Serbian "Гориво". However this will be a nightmare for non Cyrillic speakers.

Or could be C-130J.

Luckily, Cyrillic is official letter in my country. And I can understand something in Russian if it is simmilar. Although my English is million light years better than Russian, I'll stick to native Russian option. Just for immersion. And don't worry about Nadia. I don't listen to her anyway. No men listen to their women, anyway.

Any chance we can expect features mentioned above in the future? Even no is a valid answer. Edit with additional info: -Engine feed knob, when turned to off, will turn off fueling pumps and with that switch it to gravity feed. Which means that on the ground and in rest of flight operations, engine will not be affected. Except, when plane is exposed to negative G force for longer then couple of seconds or positive G, but flying inverted. Then fuel rise up and cannot be used to feed engine with gravity feed as there is no gravity. Engine will shut down and come back to life as soon as plane returns to positive G or inverted position is leveled off or engine feed knob turned to NORM. -Air Source knob is actually used to direct engine's air bleeding. What does it do ? "It controls bleed air from the engine for cabin pressurization, anti-G, canopy seal, fuel tank pressurization, and air conditioning as well as the cabin pressurization dump valve. OFF - engine bleed air valve is closed. Deactivates all the systems listed above. NORM - engine bleed air valve is open and providing pressurized air for cabin pressure and air conditioning. DUMP - cabin air dump valve is open. Bleed air functions to ventilate cabin and can provide a slight pressure boost above 8000 feet MSL. RAM - engine bleed air valve is closed and cabin dump valve open. Cabin is ventilated by ram air through an exterior scoop. This is not closing or shutting off air supply to the engine, but rather the cockpit and other systems that rely on bleed air from the engine to operate. Bleeder valves are often left open during start up, as this presents less resistance from the compressors, when the JFS crank the engine, and allows the engine to build up core speed much more quickly during startup. Apparently, the F-16 is started up with those systems in operation". I also managed to dig up that some electronics, most notably FCR, is cooled by this. So the best way to simulate AIR SOURCE knob to OFF would be to simulate FCR burndown after longer use with air source turned to off and "elec sys" error should be then displayed. Air source and engine feed do play crucial rule during start up and would be shame not to have this simulated.

Looks like that Anyway It appears release date is already 2-4 weeks away judging by Wags' videos rolling out. Not sure how will Steam pre-order fit in.

True, but the thing is Steam requires exact date. Every "release date" that was planned for Fulcrum was not a date, more like a season.

Do you mean pitch angle of bomb trajectory or your plane pitch position?

I would recommend switching to standalone DCS version. There are certain benefits compared to Steam.

I thought main reason for not getting more advanced Soviet aircrafts was "lack" of information ?

Hello, There is information going around that the F-16C Viper cannot use HARM missiles from inner pilons. The ones that carry external wing fuel tanks. IRL it can carry HARMs, they can be successfully mounted, but cannot be used as it is not intended to be used with those pylons. That leaves Viper with only 2 possible HARMs instead of 4. Can anyone confirm if that is the case and will ED remove 4 HARMs load out if it is not realistic? Best regards.

Will the rest of tutorial videos from Wags start rolling out soon for MiG-29 ?
