Like all our other aircrafts, there will be a pilot's manual. At this time there is none available, only our working documents.

We don't have an actual manual. What we do have is a System Description document compiled by somebody who has access to the Russian Manuals, to people who worked with the aircraft (former pilots and ground crew), and to an actual working aircraft. I'll ask him if I can give this document to you as a teaser.

TrackIR helps a lot and with the Rift it is even better but unfortunately the Rift is not the adequate tool for development.

One of the many tests that the MiG-19P is undergoing. In this case it was a sustained climb in full afterburners to the rated ceiling of 17,000 meters (55,774 feet).. The primary objective was to check the cockpit pressurization logic. The test was a success, the cockpit pressurization worked as it should. Unfortunately the aircraft's engines require more fine tuning since the aircraft's climb flattened at 15,900 meters (52,165 feet), 1100 meters short of the goal.

RP-5 Radar scope modes (final). The modes are based on available docs and interviews with former pilots and ground techs, who are usually old people.

My opinion is that Mount Pleasant allow for more options regarding missions that are not based on the Falklands War. You can make a Warsaw Pact vs. NATO in the South Atlantic scenario.

That image is the CRT refresh rate that is being seen. Something like this:

Yes

Day and night modes only. It is just that the night mode reacts to ambient light. During the day, the icons are too faint to be seen. At night they can be seen perfectly. And the last one is to show that it becomes faint if you shine a bright light on the scope at night. The radar scope is a cathode ray tube that requires a backlight to make contrast when a bright light source is nearby. That is one of the reasons why it has a hood over the scope. BTW, the hood can be removed.

The radar scope is almost finished:

Yes.

The RP-5 cannot be used in AG mode.

The range scale is in meters (of course :smartass:) and it goes from 0 to 2000. The 0 in the scale is to the left. The needle is saying that the range to target is over 2000 meters, which you can verify by looking at the scope.

AFAIK. IFF interrogation by airborne radar was not a thing in the 1950s. The MiG-19P does have a SRO-2 IFF system, which includes a self-destruct button. But I don't see any IFF interrogation button among the radar controls, although it does have a Home-On-Jammer function.

To the left of the ASP-5 gunsight housing you can see a gauge with colored markings. That is the range-to-target display. When the radar gunsight is enabled, it shows the range from the radar.

Search and Tracking antennas are both working. The tracking antenna has locked onto the bomber and feeding range info to the gunsight.

RP-5 Izumrud radar test.

At this time there is a problem with brightness/contrast control on moving maps. This is something that we are working with ED to solve.

M-2000C VTH Brightness control enabled.

Indeed. That is how the map is displayed in any AV-8B version, including the Harrier GR7 and GR9.

RWR Volume control is enabled. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3632773&postcount=1

Following AV-8B NA Bugs are dead: 1. RWR SAM Lock sound bug. 2. Color video showing on Monochrome Green display. More AV-8B NA updates (2018.09.23): 1. RWR Volume control is enabled. 2. RWR contact status update has been fixed. Now the new threat sound will be heard when: a new threat is detected or when a known threat changes status from non-lethal to lethal or from lethal to critical.

I just want to say that the OV-10 Bronco is armed with 4 M-60 Machine guns. These guns are basically worthless against any ground vehicle in DCS. I am sure that they are also ineffective against the Russian flying tanks: Mi-8 and Mi-24
