Considering the head/tailwind issue has been a few years, the RWR will probably be the same. Or with the DLC: F-5E II

Thank you Urbi!

The CATM-120C isnt coded, just modelled. As you found out. Yep, good workaround until more of the training loads are enabled. I know its low priority, but shouldnt take that long to enable. For most people, they dont understand the value of them.

Enjoyed flying this mod a bit yesterday. I used his F-86 cockpit/F-80 exterior mod as well. I'm hoping he can do the same for the RF-80 to keep with the feel of that era cockpit. Thanks to all who have worked on this.

Just a heads up, there is a weapons training pack that has the CATM-120 skin on the live AIM-120 as well as -9X. That way you dont lose the CAP-9. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3308281/

The Fulton Recovery System ceased operation in 1996. The 8th SOS removed the yokes from it's MC-130Es and mothballed the gear. This Herk is a J-model and not even close to have the right equipment on the nose for STARS. It would be a massive remodel.

If you use RSMapper, you can combine the Lights On key with the Salute key, since thats used in combo that the jet is ready for launch. Especially useful at night as you've mentioned.

Good luck trying to convince them to do this. I get the point and I see it as entitlement. More of the "I want something for nothing". I dont see how this will benefit ED's business model since the human gunner position was just added, after 7 years. Most of us have already bought the Huey, so they stand to gain very little, if anything from your idea.

With as many sales ED has throughout the year, just buy the module. The gunner's positions are part of the aircraft, period. The work involved to make that independent would take away resources from modules that actually need the attention.

Still hoping to see a Hellcat look alike for the Jug.

I welcome you to teach me some manners. PM and we can chat further.

Regular aircraft are harder on systems and eat up more FPS, from my experience.

I love how you preach what we all should do. Good luck. I'm done with this and you.

"something that ED never promised anywhere" So its ok to have something left incomplete for years, as long as there isnt a promise made to finish and fix bugs. Gotcha. I hope the next purchase you make (car, house, etc...) is broken and incomplete. I'm sure you'll be on the phone ASAP, complaining about it to the seller. I hope they give you the same lame excuses you're trying to defend with. I'll bet money your tune will be quite different.

Dont preach to me about getting outside. I've had and recovered from COVID. I moved from one state to another just this month, selling and then buying our new home. My work forces me to get outside and travel across the US to various cities, further exposing me and my family to this. So again, dont preach to me. This module and the lack of ANY progress on it, pisses people off. It was left behind PRIOR to the pandemic, so dont let this excuse blind you to the truth. Its not a priority for them. We get an apology every once in a while, but the facts are there. Nice you come back 6 weeks later to set us all straight. Pffft...

Thanks @Tomcatter87 I asked about the wing folding abilities and it never got answered until your screenshot.

The F-5 teaches you the basics of flying and energy management. A great platform for formation instruction, BFM and A2G . If you can master it in the Tiger, moving onto another higher tech aircraft is a breeze.

Do the wings fold? Could be great for deck candy as well. Thanks!

I applaud your efforts for detail. I didnt intend to come off as insulting. I was just curious.

Bump? Dec 2019 it was "ready"

Are you guys starting from scratch again? You displayed during one of the virtual Airshows, a functional model that appeared to be ready for release. What changed?

Yes

Bump again. Seems this project has died off. Can anyone else take it up?

I absolutely love this mod. Flew the Herk last night and it was a joy to fly. It has the feel of a heavy and the sounds are outstanding. I look forward to seeing this continue to evolve and new features added to enhance this already great aircraft. Thank you to all who have contributed to making this available in DCS.

Okay.
