    Agree , no need to be scared of MiG 15s when you fly at night

     

    And for a Day Alpha strike ? Do your Mission! And let the fighters do their job. A F-4 with A-A configurations is better for fighting migs than a intruder with guns .

     

    Multirole kills diversity ;)

    i think besides it's cool looks, the direct flight control and it's bomb load, the DIANE is one of the greatest aspects of the a-6.

    it must have been super space-agey for it's time, but is completely dated now, compared to modern concepts.

     

    i've read that the system could show a synthetic 3d view of the terrain on a monitor, which - as i imagine - could then be used to actually fly the aircraft... like in a video game...

    is this correct? i could not find further information or pcitures on that...

     

     

     

    Yes that’s correct, but ... do you remember this really old car racing games for the Gameboy? No real 3d , just different 2d layers in different green , some small some big . Great stuff for its time

    Ps: here you can see the screen, it’s a enhanced VSI with white puffy clouds and ovals on the ground

    This comes close to the real one

    Pps: this shows the synthetic terrain with the cueing system.

    It’s controlled by the BN

     

    Not that easy to read at the beginning, it will surely make you sweat at your first nighttime canyon ride . No nightvision, just this gameboy graphics, controlled by a guy next to you on a mechanical computer that will freeze in every hairy situation ;)

    I wonder if what kind of HUD does the A6-E has... If its not like those modern HUD that shows a lot of info, then Carrier landing should be so much fun, especially at night.

     

     

    How did those WW2 and cold war pilots land at night times? I'm sure they had it extremely tough than the modern pilots with better HUD display aid.

     

     

     

    HUD? Call it „Gunsight“

     

    It’s a heads down plane , build around the DIANE system with its big Radar eye in the nosecone. The natural habitat of the intruder is the pitch black night... sometimes with rain , the BN gives the cue , the pilot follows .

     

    It’s slightly different then the modern jets

  4. Yes, but in this aircraft it is a moot question. If you set the mode to IFA, the INS and GPS are coupled and no drift error will occur.

     

     

    IFA is the default mode to be used in the AV-8B N/A and Plus.

     

     

     

    So it’s common to start the AV8B in IFA mode without pre alignment on the ground? That’s great for operation timing

  5. Weil die auf meinem Lieblingsserver (und den meisten anderen Servern auch) rumfliegen.

     

     

     

    Dann sollte man doch mal mit den hostern reden ;)

     

    Von den Messerschmitt Piloten will auch niemand die F-18 verbieten weil sie einen so locker vom Himmel knallt - das Thema kann also gut funktionieren wenn man sich als Mission Maler und Server Host damit auseinander setzt

  6. Um damit im Multiplayer zu dominieren. Bei den FC-Modulen brauch man kein INS-Alignment abzuwarten oder sich mit irgendwelchen Systemkonfigurationen aufzuhalten. Mich stört diese Ankündigung von FC4 daher gewaltig :mad:

     

     

     

    Warum fliegst du denn gegen FC3 Piloten?! Wer gegen wen antritt ist eine Frage der Mission maker und Server Hoster , nicht von ED .

  7. Entweder .... oder ...

     

    Bist du nicht schon lang genug dabei , um zu wissen wie der Hase läuft?

     

    Und in Russland ist kein langes Wochenende :)

     

    Wie alles in der Welt wird auch diese Situation ihre Gründe haben

     

    Aber ja, hätte mich natürlich auch gefreut

  8. Let me just say one thing:

     

    There's a reason why Matt Wagner puts his videos out on the Hornet using a monitor + TrackIR: he can actually see details in the cockpit.

     

     

    If you have any hope of actually using an aircraft to its full capability, you simply can not use VR. You NEED to be able to read cockpit instruments. I don't understand why people here would suggest VR should be purchased before monitor + TrackIR. VR should only be used as a novelty in addition to a monitor, not exclusively.

     

     

    MAYBE if VR screen resolution was 5x better than current tech and there was no problem with performance or screen door effect, then MAYBE you could go solely with VR, but we're nowhere close to that.

     

     

     

    No problem here, can read anything and the really important informations are on the hud . Remember, you can move freely in the cockpit, when you can’t read the instruments by leaning slightly forwards than it’s not the problem of the rift ;)

     

    And than ... are we here for flying or for using a virtual computer on a computer?!

     

    And details in the cockpit? I have never noticed the screws on the rail or the mapcase before VR

     

    Situation awareness? Where am I in the room ? Find a ground target again after a turn ? AA refueling? Hovering a chopper? Yup, that’s easier with VR ... really easier!

     

    And maybe this is as important as knowing your fuel stat from your instruments

     

     

    No offense, just don’t see the „problem“ (compared to my instruments)

  9. Achso du meinst also Razbam möchte gar keine fertigen Produkte haben sondern uns einfach nur mit halbfertigen Sachen das Geld aus der Tasche ziehen ? Ja ok , dann Kauf ich lieber die Hawk, VEAO kündigt nämlich Zum Glück nicht dauernd neue Sachen an sondern Arbeitet seit Jahren fleißig an einem Model, yay . SCNR ;)

     

    Mal ganz ehrlich... warum meinen wir Laien es immer besser zu wissen als die Entwickler?!

     

    Ist wie beim Fußball „jetz Lauf doch mal, kann doch nicht so schwer sein“

     

    *kopfschüttel*
