Will there be any afterburner gate like F-14/F-16/FA-18?
Deano87 replied to VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants's topic in F-15E
That may be so. But this is not really related to what happens in the real aircraft. Several DCS modules have option of a “afterburner gate” button required to be depressed to allow AB, this is extremely useful for people playing with basic joysticks that don’t have throttle detents, or have very imprecise throttle controls. It effectively allows you to lock yourself out of AB to make sure you aren’t using it accidentally. It’s a nice quality of life option imho. -
Hey all. I have some ideas for a few upgrades I’d like to develop for the Warthog Throttle. Rather than have to rip the warthog apart that is in my sim I’d really like to pick up another throttle to use as a development one. At least for 3D scanning and basic fitment etc. As such it doesn’t need to be functional, so anybody out there got an old and busted warthog throttle they’d be willing to part with? UK or EU would be preferable for obvious reasons. let me know. D

reported FCR bearing/range is showing wrong data, time to go is dead

I think by default that's in ref to Bullseye not from your aircraft. Looks like the manual is out of date. -
Aim-9 except for X, Aim-7, Aim-120B & C
-
Functionality wise they are exactly the same, so it doesn't add more functionality to the UFC itself, apparently it was more compatible with NVGs compared to the old UFC but that's about it. Instead of red writing on a bunch of little screens you get green writing on one big screen instead
-
The ATFLIR pod is only used on the F-18, I think you are confused. The F-15E will ship with the full LANTIRN package, that is to say the AN/AAQ-13 NAVFLIR pod and the AN/AAQ-14 TGP, Upgraded TGPs (LITENING & SNIPER) will come later with other period correct upgrades like the single screen UFC and JHMCS and possssibly (cross fingers) Aim-9x... although the F-15E only very recently received that IRL. Also the AGM-130 is also shown in the trailer... for whatever that is worth.
-
I would not expect smart weapons, so GBU-38 and 31 will probably come later, same for the 103 and 105.

That isn't my experience with the current F-16 radar in the sim. Its hopeless if there is any look down component and its range against other fighter sized targets is much shorter than the kinematic ability of the Amraam when launched supersonic and at high alt.
-
What he said. F-15E is going to plenty dangerous. Both the F-16 and F-18 are radar limited at high speed, high alt BVR, not limited by Aim-120 range.

@erniedaoage Might be worth contacting them on Discord, might be able to get one into the hands of the right person. As FFB is becoming more prevalent then it would be great to get it working.
-
But more seriously. I’m guessing the DCS implementation is simply “Display aircraft type here” and the sim automatically knows if it’s a friendly or enemy unit. It’s not actually comparing anything to a library.
-
@YoYo you’re posting pictures of the Navflir pod part of the LANTIRN system, we’re talking about the TGP, in the last screenshot is SNIPER for example.

Thanks to @AdrianL for posting this in another thread.

Awesome, Hope you don't mind but I've posted this across in the WIP No Discussion thread, as that thread pings about 60ppl.

Looks like a GBU-15 or AGM-130 without any fins installed to me.
-
It will largely depend how well Razbam program the FFB. But yes, the F15E should benefit from a good FFB stick.
-
Just a few new pics of the AG Radar from RBs Discord. Notice the screen pixels are now simulated. null

There should be no reason for the loadout to shrink, it's very well understood what the F-15E carries, both now and in the past. It's expected that the loadout will grow as we get some weapons down the line that are currently not in the sim, Like SDBs for instance.
-
No.. it means exactly what Prowler said it does, they haven't got all the stuff together properly for the storefront to go live on the DCS store. So they are pushing back the pre-order to get that stuff finished.

From Ron’s Twitter “Important information: due to a series of uncontrollable events in the promotional material for the F-15E product, the pre order date has been moved to Feb15, this by no means affect our scheduled EA release. RAZBAM Simulations.”

Standard is better probably. The whole point of this mod is to get the VR rain to look as good as the 2D rain.

A full fidelity F-15C done either by ED or a 3rd party wouldn’t make the FC3 aircraft obsolete. They are aimed at a totally different audience and have totally different price points. The FC3 jets are good for people dipping their toes into DCS, and getting to grips with the basics of flying and fighting etc. FC3 jets are the gateway to more complex stuff. Honestly I’d be surprised if we don’t get a FF Albino Eagle at some point.
