Actually according the the good scientists in the PSD career field it does increase your G tolerance. . Google AIR FORCE PAMPHLET 11-419 for more info. Now is what we have in DCS 100% correct...maybe, maybe not...But the simple fact they have modeled G warmups inflight and the effect it has in the ability to pull g in the game is an impressive detail.

First, I'd like you to show me a real world tactics manual describing this technique. Russian, American or otherwise. I'm pretty sure real world pilots don't try to use these kind gimmicks during dogfight? Second, Your assumption is flawed regarding the second missile finding a "Bigger Heat Source". Heat source is relative and subject to change. A number of years ago I had the opportunity to handle several different Soviet and American MANPADS in a training environment. (Real weapons, no motors or warheads) I can tell you for fact what the seekers REGULARLY locked on to...was NOT the "bigger heat source (aircraft)." Remember, Missiles don't just look for heat...they look for specific heat in a specific range on the IR spectrum.

Youre not a SciFi fan are you? The SciFi series "Firefly" had an episode titled "The Train Job" that I thought of as soon as I saw the name of thIs mission and low and behold the share similar elements. Ya need to find it and watch it if you can. Great mission!

Make sure ya set Fire Guards. We dont need another Bonne Homme Richard incident. :music_whistling: -
I'm gonna add this and let you guys sort out your feelings. I have a friend whose Brother in Law flew the Hornet. They stopped by his house before moving to another state last week for a visit. My friend took him up and sat him down at his computer to show him the hornet. After a few minutes he said "Well let me try" His only complaint about the Launch sequence...no Weight Board...Everything else looked "Really Cool" (His Words) His First approach to the Roosevelt was a bolter. He adjusted his seat. His second Approach He trapped and received a grade of "OK" 3 Wire. Cold. Hes never flown a n entertainment flight sim in his life. You may infeer from this anecdote what you wish.

How to get rescue helo to stay with carrier?
Sierra99 replied to rayrayblues's topic in DCS: Supercarrier
The Rescue Helo Script mentioned for this literially requires just 3 things. It is very simple and a good way to learn about scripting. Here is an example mission with a Rescue Helo Rescue Helo 1.miz -
ALKWS is a real game changer on the battlefield. Instead of blowing up a building, And damaging a block...it's possible to take out a single room. That's huge!

A10C auto fires gun when I pull the slightest G
Sierra99 replied to rocketeer's topic in Bugs and Problems
A.) what stick and throttle are you using? B.) go into controls and settings and see of anything is lighting up unexpectedly when you move the stick. C.) a short track file of the behavior would help. -
Sorry. Your original comment was Perhaps this comment is misleading perhaps because of the punctuation you used. Yes the F-16C Block 50 we have is based on a specific variant. That variant is flown by the USANG. Air Combat Command, Pacific Air Forces AND United States Air Forces Europe. It is not a unique varient used specificcly by the USANG as your comment implies. Yes...there is. That was the entire point of the CCIP Program. Standardization. It didn't matter what base an F-16 came from or how it was configured when it left the factory. When they completed the CCIP program they were exactly the same. ALL the Block 40/42s were the same except for the engines. ALL the Block 50 & 52s were the same except for engines. There are a couple of slight differences between the CCIP for the 40/42s &50/52s but the point is there IS a standard. I understand exactly what you are saying...The problem is the answer you are providing while "factually correct" is also misleading.

This comment is incorrect. There is no specific variant of Block 50 Flown by the ANG. A Block 50 modified by CCIP and assigned to Spangdhalem is in fact the same as one assigned to Duluth. http://www.f-16.net/aircraft-database/F-16/airframe-profile/4406/

The F-16 Block 50s assigned to Duluth are exactly the same as F-16 Block 50s assigned to Shaw. That was the point of the CCIP program. Standardization.

And ACC, 20 FW Shaw AFB , South Carolina 55 FS, 77FS, 79FS And PACAF, 35 FW Misawa AFB , Japan 13thFS, 14thFS And USAFE, 52 FW Spangdahlem AFB , Germany 480FS. (Previously the 22ndFS and 23rdFS as well) The Block 50 variant we have is not the most numerous at 365 airframes. However, since Block 50 and 52 differ only in engines Installed and all were upgraded to the same standard under the CCIP program. They are the predominate USAF variant at 702 aircraft The 148 FW Duluth IAP , Minnesota and the 169 FW McEntire ANGB , South Carolina Are the only guard units flying Block 50/52s and only total 22 and 25 aircraft. The other thing to consider is Block 40/43 aircraft were also upgraded during CCIP. there are a few differences but the intention was to bring the newest F-16s up to a common standard of equipment and capabilities. http://www.f-16.net/f-16-news-article1706.html

OK I did some testing this morning. (Track attacked). I was able to engage the autopilot without issues BUT it took some fine tuning to get it to hold level flight. I asked if this is correct on the Tester Forums and received this reply: When I checked MY settings I found I did not have any dead zones for my Stick and Rudders. I added a dead zone of 3 to each and it seemed to work much better. Give that a shot and see if that helps. F-15C_AP_Test.trk

Are you engaging Attitude hold first?

No. Realism should NOT take a backseat. This is a simulator...not a game. If I want to fly fighters with lots of unrealistic Bombs and Missiles and gadgets there are numerous games available out there to meet this requirement. There is a reason I dont fly those games. The other players. If the realism of this game is offputting to some...so be it. In many cases they are the same people who will run into you flying formation you didnt ask for and laugh when they crash...meanwhile they have weasted the time you had to sit down and fly before going to work. No thanks. DCS needs to be kept as realistic as possible.

Advice good HOTAS for mixed use desk set
Sierra99 replied to zepher's topic in New User Briefing Room
The Warthog HOTAS is a good stick. Despite the complaints of some, I have had a Warthog going on 10 years with few issues. I open it up about once a year and clean and lube it and it just works. For Rudder Peddals, Thrustmaster TFRP Peddels are in expensive and compact. The good thing about the Warthog is it gives you a good starting point for multiple aircraft.
