The 132nd Virtual Wing is looking for combined arms users that would be interested in forming or participating in a dedicated ground unit for JTAC's The JTACs will be participating in combat operations supporting ground forces with CAS. JTAC's can expect to work with multiple CAS flights from various virtual organizations, the JTAC can also expect to work with AWACS/JSTARS assets requesting air support, providing sitrep's JTAC's can also participate in the AWACS/JSTARS command and control function support air-to-ground operations. All CAS procedures will be according to real-world procedures, and the 132nd Virtual Wing will provide a real-world JTAC for JTAC/CAS lessons. The 132nd Virtual Wing have conducted successful combined operations with the following virtual organizations: 3rd Wing, 5e EVC, Masterarms, INTA HUMAR (JTAC), RAF Air UK, AMVI and the 476th. The 132nd Virtual Wing normally conducts its events around 2000 -2300 CET More information about 132nd Virtual Wing and our operations can be found in this thread: 132nd Virtual Wing - ED Forum 132nd Virtual Wing Website If anyone would be interested, please let me know in this thread, or by sending me a PM here on this forum.

Congratulations!

You are more than welcome! And this was the least we can do to support your continuous hard work to develop Aries which allow us to conduct advanced mission with our various aircrafts, and also the participation of other cooperating organizations. Thanks again, for your dedication to the community and your great support :thumbup:

Hello Gringo! The 132nd Virtual Wing would be interested in participating in your event! I will send you a email with more details about us, and we can discuss the possibility of participation from us.

@DArt : Regarding the large event on Sunday, should we update our server to this version of LotATC , or do you think we should wait until after the event?

From the mission Looney describes:

A new video from the 132nd, this time created by Mosquito: This video show another mission with the 132nd Virtual Wing. This mission ends with a ejected A-10C pilot need to be picked up by a CSAR helicopter (HUEY) which also is controlled by a 132nd member, and you are able to watch how it looks from the inside of the Huey on the way back.

The 132nd Virtual Wing has been using this beta version for a while now, and we have very good results with this version, and we appreciate the hard work Towsim and the rest of the 10th gunfighters and Aries team are doing for the community. Thanks for your effort, and it is a pleasure so see Aries working as good as now!

@NeilWillis You need to make sure to run the gossipbox as an administrator aswell. I had the same problem as you have, but when I ran it as an administrator it worked (So both run the installation as an admin, and the program itself)

@Menesessis if you go into DCS options (not in the mission editor, but DCS itself) - misc - view and enable F11 free camera allow, it should work (as long as you enabled external views in the mission. If this doesnt work, then I am afraid I dont know what to do.

I think you need to change it in the options section on the host. This can not be controlled by the mission designer

Really good episode! Thanks to Leatherneck for this insight into their processes.

One way of doing might be to have the land forces from another country than the pilots, then you can send a message to country and then only the tactical commander can get it. But I guess that requires the tactical commander to be in a veichle. (We have used it for JTAC's to receive information from a Ground Force Commander for CAS)

Thank you for your great effort Towsim! Merry christmas, and a happy new year!

Great job with the podcast Dojo! If there are any organizations out there that would like to participate on 132nd events at some point, please let me know, and we can discuss it. Also, if there are some skilled missions designers out there that would like a challenge, please let me know:)

Thanks for your reply. We are intending to upgrade to Aries Airborne Radio for DCS World V1.955 Gossipbox has version: V 1.9491 Sept, 7. 2014 Should we wait with updating Aries Airborne Radio, or should the two versions work together? Based on your statement above

Hello Towsim! We in the 132nd have tested ARIES alot the last week, and we have some feedback/questions. We have a question about the Gossipbox: Are the elevation that you can configure modelled? It appears that comms get cut off between 1000-1500ft when we are a few nautical miles away from the position set in the Gossipbox configurator. And this happens both when the Controller is set at 300ft and when he is sat at 30000ft. This is a issue due to our KA-50s and Hueys that are flying low, and our AWACS controller have a really hard time hearing them. On a mission we flew yesterday the KA50 had to climb up to 3000ft to get contact, even tough the range and altitude of the AWACS controller (set in the configuration manager) should not indicate such problems. Furthermore during yesterdays mission we experienced severe comms issues at the start, and it appeared to be random who could talk to who during our startup. (We all started up at the same airfield. 6 A-10Cs, 3 KA-50s 1UH-1H and 3 Controllers with LotATC and Gossipbox) After a few minutes thing sorted out and most flights were able to communicate to eachother. With that beeing said, we really enjoy ARIES, and think it is a wonderfol tool that really helps for the immersion in DCS!

Awesome! Looking forward to it!
