ed doesnt owe you any answers get over yourself your interests are no more special than those of anyone else's, least of all not ed's own internal plans, which they have absolute right to keep privy.

had no problems calling the tanker last night, well, none after the rio was told he was using the wrong keybind

tomcat design requirements involved loitering for over an hour away from the carrier, so if you're running out of fuel too fast it's all on you hint: there's more to using the throttle than keeping it pushed forward

it says tornados are on sead duty, let them do their job

tested fa-18 aim-7f/m/mh vs f-14 aim-7m simultaneous launches @ 23000' 300kias tailshots from 5 miles, performance is the same. i havent seen any testing from people saying that the hb aim-7 is better. in fact we saw the ed aim-7m (not mh) actually accelerate better and achieve higher peak velocity than the hb aim-7m

i hope hes serious

this thread is even better than the joke

the amazing part is that this is not bait guy is 100% dead serious this is part of the entertainment value of the module

iirc there are acq commands for jester found in the pilot keybinds, make sure you didnt bind to those instead of the actual pilot acq controls proper. check the category column to verify.

i think this is the absolute crowning jewel of danielnl threads

i think the unpleasantness is accounted more by the fact that the jhmcs axes seem horizon oriented instead of aircraft oriented. this then couples with the vertical axis acceleration of the 9x reticule to create some distinctly unnatural feeling movements when trying to slew the sight around outside of the straight and level flight. i imagine this may actually be true to life where pilots tend to tilt their head to the horizon but the home environment is distinctly different.

behold the power of simple maths lmao engineers and scientists can suck it

you're gonna get both of them, dont fool yourself

its cool to fully engage yourself in learning something but your wifes right, its just a video game at the end of the day when you blur the lines between entertainment and reality then you start getting into problem territory if you got something you want to do, then just go ahead and do it makes no damn sense to me to have to ask the internet's approval unless you just want to hear some honeyed words to make yourself feel good

its not april fools yet

step 1 mush stage 5 step 2 pull full aft step 3 cry on forums

"this guy seems really eager to spit into the wind" taking a broad view of all that we know is in development i wouldnt get my hopes up

what you guys arent remembering is that they picked sead platforms based on how willing they were to lose them the f-100 was the first wild weasel airframe because they were already second string aircraft behind the f-4. later on, old f-4s got the job. then f-16s drew the straw, not strike eagles.

lol good lord it's no wonder the tanker isn't clearing you for contact when you keep rising and falling 200ft most important factor for getting contact permission is making sure all your velocity deltas are low in other words that you need to already be holding a relatively steady formation with the tanker trim it out and use your keyboard for menu navigation

goobers who cant even hold formation think think they'll magically shine in bfm

lmao nah i wouldnt bet on it there are only a few people on this forum who spin the cope machine as hard as hummingbird does

im not even a particularly demanding ears guy but the sounds are definitely the low point of the module for me external engine noise is thin and distant. it's like a hairdryer compared to the hornet. m61 sound is full wtf, did it get replaced with a revolver cannon? also the firing sounds dont seem to attenuate properly with speed either. fine, it's wip. i dunno about the heater launch noise, seems hollywood fake. maybe an sme can comment on what it sounds like from inside the cockpit. i set hear like in helmet for a reason but all i get are these trashy hollywood sfx piped straight in like im standing stark naked outside the loudness of some of these pseudohaptic feedback noises like the switches is enough to actually be counterproductive and immersion breaking instead of the fake afterburner roar we should have a throttle lift emulator switch because slamming into mil is an important thing to be able to do, the latter is an issue noted even by one of your sme's more simulations, less artistic liberties please

you're ascending too high if you're getting hit by wake turbulence theres no turbulence if you're tucked in under the wing where the drogue naturally settles anticipate the natural ascent every time power is added with your pitch inputs

who are these people?
