Looking forward to them! Needless to say, alongside the VF-1, VF-213 and VF-143, all of which are already present in one form or another, the AIM/ACEVAL jets are by far my favorite F-14A paint schemes. These birds had the TCS (or an early form of it) as well, so that should be one thing less to worry about regarding externals.

F-14A wing sweep override L/D mismatch

@IronMike@Silhou Routine bump! -
Because I like repeating myself..... anyone else a fan of these babies?

Way too many variables. You need specific launch conditions for both aircraft AND their timelines to even begin using it as a performance benchmark.

What's the hardest AI fighter to dogfight in your opinion?

Pushovers... Go fight a MiG-15 if you dare! -
Try the Persian Gulf, BVR instant action. There's no friendly AWACS there at all. Does the issue still arise?

Such is the case with most government spending!

Problems installing latest update
captain_dalan replied to captain_dalan's topic in Installation Problems
Solved it! Turns out, it was an installer thing. The updater failed for some reason and created duplicates of the files, but after the fail, even though the window closed, the updater was still running and 'using'/referencing the files, not allowing them to be changed in any way. A restart solved the issue, after which I manually deleted them, and reinstalled the Apache. Serves me right for not shutting down the PC for day at times I guess -
Found it! Thanks for the info mate!

Always a pleasure mate! -
It wasn't always so though. The image below was taken sometimes last year. When were these changes made, and based on what documentation? null

With the latest update I started receiving the following error that prohibits me from completing the update process OR removing the Apache module. When I try to delete the file manually I also get this report. The antivirus is set to exclude the DCS folder at all. What could be the problem? null null

Hey guys, can you double check this? Cause on my machine the bug is still there. Switching from F1 to F2, in the video below, causes the right after burner in the F-14A to always light up with delay. Both engines in ZONE 5. Latest version of DCS. -
Tips for keeping the energy for dogfighting
captain_dalan replied to WildeSau44's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
It's all a matter of practice. Reading on good material helps, but you still need to be able to implement it in an actual fight. Start with AI's and then switch to MP dogfighting servers when you feel comfortable. NOTE: Many of the AI controlled planes cheat big time and have infinite energy reserves. Notable example are MiG-21 and F-5, but there are others as well.
