False myth, radome must be transparent to radiowaves in order to let own signals spread out. So what AMRAAM radar really see is the flat radar dish of the incoming missile, whose return cannot be underestimated. Regards!

Android - you precisely brought up the worst example. Android Market is a mess, and there have been several examples of infected programs with trojans Regards!

...Which is great, because C looks more slim and sexy than the doped E Regads!!

No it isn't. I guess you can use ARBIS to introduce manually your actual position in the INS, but it isn't done automatically, there is no link between ARBIS and INS Regards!

Man, I reeeeeally would be glad if ED eventually introduces realistic INS drift and complete GPS/INS blending with Kalman filtering, as PMDG already does. It might not be a huge deal in A-10C, but defenitively it would be a major change in BlackShark, forcing us to plan and make INS corrections here and there. Olgerd has come up the topic once, and it seems to be a WIP, I'm still hoping it will be introduced in future patches. Regards!

You don't need any. It's a modified version of DOSBOX, with experimental Voodoo emulation, which allow to increment image resolution and other improvements, like perspective-corrected textures. It looks very promising. It's worth to keep an eye on it. Regards!

Better uh? :smartass: Regards!

Is it possible to generate thunderstorms/Cumulnimbus (anvil-shaped clouds) and fog with the current dynamic weather engine? Regards

Awesome Olgerd, we need more posts like this :thumbup: Regards!

The "10" in the lower left corner is the INS data confidence index, or something like that. Since INS drift is not modelled in the sim, I don't think it's going to change soon. Regards.

Many thanks PeterP, really usefull! Regards!

Yeah. And F is 15 in hexadecimal, so if we work out F+1+5=21, so next DCS product will be F-21A Lion Too easy, ED :disgust: Regards!

After reading "A-10's over Kosovo" and "Warthog: Flying the A-10 during the gulf war", it was surprising that, even with heavy battle damage, they almost never jettisoned the ordinance. I always thought that, after taking damage, releasing all the stores was mandatory! Regards!

Fuel dump system is not very popular among ground-based fighters - you always can get rid of your ordinance and have a real weight decrease in case of an emergency situation. Comercial airplanes cannot get rid of passanger so easily though - that's why I guess it's mandatory for them (nonetheless I would throw the classic snorting guy or crying boy sat next to me overboard , oh dear, how I miss an "emergency Jettison" button sometimes! :D) Regards!

None in particular - I wanted only to point out the fact that turbine engines are much hotter than piston engines - even if external casing is properly isolated you still have the problem with the plume. I assume that small UAV's engines works in the same temperature range as car's engines, therefore 1600 hp P-51 engine might be hotter, but still much cooler than conventional turbines. Regards!!

Looking at those C-17, I wonder what happened with this: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=41208 Regards!

Hotter than an UAV but definitively not as hot as an heli - turbine engines are like halogen lamps for IR sensors (the best example: M1A2 vs Leopard 2, turbine vs. diesel engine). My car's engine works usually around 90ºC. That's why, thermodinamically wise, 4-stroke engines are more efficient than gas turbines - 2º law of thermodinamic, you know... Regards!

A piece of cake. Seriously, I hope in future patches dynamic weather allows more customization inside ME. It's quite impressive but underused because it's really hard to get the weather conditions you want, where you want. Regards!

Ey maybe the "Flying Legend" thing is only a bad joke and what will be available will be a Hornet instead! Regards!

Sometimes wishes became reality hehe Regards!

There is no P-51B in the TFC collection. Regards!

True, but it's putting off the development of the new US fixed wing jet fighter Regards!

Flying Legends?? Oh come on, we have already IL2 and CoD for that... The rest looks good. I'm looking forward to it! Regards!

Hi have just found this video in Youtube, I thought it might be useful Presets behaviour seems not to match with the real thing. In the video it can be seen that, when preset is changed, it's necesary to press "Status" to re-tune the radio (or at least to see which frequency is tuned). ADF function looks nice (It isn't properly modelled in sim) and the word "n-load" appears on the screen when "load" button is pressed. Regards!

Hahaha the third one is fantastic :thumbup: Regards!!
