I am experiencing the same problem with engine startup, doesn't matter if I start the left engine first or the right engine... It seems like the APU gets hung up or something as it does not shut off after individual engine start. This happens to me on the A-10A Cold Start instant action mission on Caucuses map. You can reproduce by playing that particular mission. Also, the default view in the A-10A is messed up. I fixed this by using user snap view to move the head further aft to try to match the full fidelity A-10C position.

In the A/A gun mode with radar locked bandit it should be target closure rate off to the right and dynamic WEZ, no? Pretty standard for US aircraft HUD design.

Definitely something seems super odd with the pitch sensitivity using a Virpil mongoose CM2 base plus 200mm curved extension plus TM F-18 stick… Normally with a 200mm curved extension on any module the in DCS stick is less sensitive because it takes more displacement to move the stick but here, I’m constantly getting PIOs in pitch axis primarily… Not just talking about the takeoff pitching moment… I’m talking about throughout flying the SE. I don’t need curves on any of my planes, I specifically purchased this flight sim hardware to maintain linear controls so I’m not robbing Peter to pay Paul VIA curves. It does actually feel like a real plane I have flown T-34B but even that I felt was super sensitive stick controls with only a few mm of displacement… Like if you sneezed you could flip the plane inverted if your hand moved far enough.

Why doesn't he bite his teeth tho?

I mean this could induce physical seizures in people

name checks out hehe

Is this issue even reported yet?

The Helmet mounted sight with the Archer puts the Tomcat at an extreme disadvantage, NATO did exercises to test this with the German Air Force MiG-29s and they absolutely clobbered the opposition NATO forces when unleashed with the Schlem and Archer combo. That 45 degrees off boresight shot capability does make a difference in who can shoot first in a turning fight and it isn't like a Tomcat is difficult to see. The only way to really counter this would be to stay within the Rmin range of that Archer missile and keep the fight close and not allow the MiG driver to extend even a little bit less you get bit with an Archer.

Good to know, I really wasn't sure and did not want to make any false claims since I have never stepped foot onto a carrier flight deck and can only go off of anecdotal information I have heard over the years and also what I can find out using my google foo powers on the internets.

don't forget blue shirts with cocks and chains and as far as ejecting goes, inflatable life vest / life raft for pilots so you don't just simply disappear when landing in water after ejecting

DCS already has a "hear like in helmet" selection in the audio options why not have the Tomcat just sound like SMEs report when "hear like in helmet" is optionally selected by the end user? Problem solved and you still keep your artistic license. I accept checks and money orders btw

Maybe a bug with SRS implementation then?

Is your "driver" using the correct functions on the radio hat? There are 4... ICS 159 182 BOTH (didn't think it was working with SRS tho)

The GBU-12 doesn't look right, I think the ablative version should have green laser sensor head and fins. Based on photos I've seen around the innerwebs.

that is a good point
