  1. thanks for your reply how sure are you they had no constant peg equivalent? I know there was a aggressor squadron and the preview I read of the book Red Eagles implies heavily they had more than just the F5s, and did have a aggressor squad. maybe not as advanced as ours, but we teend to be snooty in the US twds soviet aviation. For example if anyone uses quora youll to this day find people claiming as fact that the soviets had to 'draw their gunsights on the glass' and other wonky propaganda myths. The chart that listed literally every vehicle and plane in the world ( for like 1981 or whatever) I saw on quora. posted by an ex brit forces guy who'd come across it. we had no idea what metric the russians used either besides perhaps it seemed the T34 was the baseline for bottom of the barrel for hte time. an F4 was rated same as mig21, perhaps a little lower. F14 2.0 highest score of anything on it. ISTR some things they got wrong badly and some they got alarmingly right. the apache scored high as did the abrams. ironically the F111 scored fairly low, though in gw1 they destroyed the most tanks of any air platform. I also seem to recall b52s being rated fairly low, which i find ironic because even if b52s only could carry say a b17 payload, any plane we project gettng 100 years of use out of is legend status. sorry for the novel, I crashed my moto 2x this week and tore some ligaments up etc. Im a little 'off' as to the WSO/RIOs sent to Moscow/Beijing/West (or 'the east') ISTR all the f4 jocks were convinced it was about the EW aspect of things. Im sure nuclear weapons of course figured heavily into the torture. as an aside my father was a F4d wso. when stationed at Torrejone late 70s early 80s with TDYs to Incirlik (all before I was born) he later told me his job would have been to fly in NOE and drop tac nukes on 'Red Army troop concentrations' (his words) anyways, the one time he did discuss this, he basically said theyd fly in, pray to not get hit, and nuke Soviet tanks at preplanned chokepoints hopefully catching lots of them per plan. However he noted that the squadron felt that thered be absolutely nowhere worth landing as the world would soon end with nuclear escalation. 'worse' still, he said that immediately they felt it was a suicide mission not only because the insane airwar thatd be occurring and Soviet IADs, (he said he feared the ZSU 23-4 the most of all) BUT ALSO flying back to FRIENDLIES. remember thered be dozens of nations involved! apparently consensus was that if you somehow broke through the iron curtain, delivered your nukes and didnt die, and were flying back and successfuly reached the front youd probably be shot down by jumpy ground troops, or foreign soldiers. thank god all that never happened. I also often think of my childhood in Germany, and what I know now. Id have been dead before people even knew there was a war, its near certain the Spetznas had tac nukes planted near every major NATO base in Germany, especially air bases. nevermind the million other ways you could die. ANYWAYS, sorry to ramble all.
  2. ok so essentially the RP and PPs can be used for navigation waypoints however it seems everyone misunderstood my question and inadverntly answered it SO BASICALLY - you cannot easily f10 mark something and then name it say RP 1 and then select waypoint 31 (or whatevers right) and youll go there as a nav point....? am i right? you still have to manually enter all the coords.. which makes it the same as entering waypoints any other way and i dont really see where youd want or need to do this
  3. sir, as I stated previously, I can easily use the UFCP to enter coords. HOWEVER, im unable to use f10 to put in WPs in flight, as in put in a f10 marker as RP1 and try waypt 31 or whatever is relevant. others say it works but it doesnt for me. i must be missing a step? The reason I ask is sometimes typing in the entire coords takes too long, or w.e for example in HBs F14 module you can add a marker on the map, and have the AI rio add it as a WP. the Jeff doesnt have a rio, but thats what Im looking for basically - f10 marker with RP or PP 1 and able to use it to navigate to in emergency.
  4. well back to the OP Jester using lantirn or eeven just lasing/lgbs. I know this can or will be very hard with all the possible grnd targets - all I can think of is perhaps making it so users can place like 3 map markers, and you can order jester to lase primary, secondary, or tertiary. if you drop u drop otherwise its a buddy lase. or adopting that mod someone made awhile back Jester interrogate (IFF) cmd
  5. this is why I offer the track. all thats done. Im not new to this. it only occurs very infrequently, and when it does always seems tied to that particular mission. For example it always happened in this DCS mission until skipped. as i stated clearly once this bug occurs you will die no matter what, Ive had the canopy open engine off.
  6. weird. I did all that and it didnt work . I must have messed up somewhere along the way. shame, its easier to do it as a f10 marking but since I Got it right using old fashion coords in the ufcp maybe ill stick with that ironically i cant, no matter how many tutorials and reviews of chucks guides, get the ck802 and Gb6 to work in some modes right i think its much like a problem I Had with the f14 when i started as a mp rio i couldnt get inputting WPs to work. EVER. Until one day I realized every tutorilal and video told you to press clear just one time. and if u did, it didnt work. I think this may be similar. one small step.
  7. its the first i heard of it it makes me wonder - i once saw a soviet list of all allied and sov equipment with a number of effectiveness given for all. starting with like .5 for a t34 the highest allied jet was f14 with 2.0 i wonder if that was from the tests? I wonder if it happened and what the Sovs thought they apparently did have their equivalent constant peg program (theyd be fools not to) and we know they sent WSOs and RIOS from NAM to the USSR never to be seen again (or the PRC) we also know they went to great lengths in korea to get a downed f86 for example
  8. 'claimed'
  9. I was just playing the jolly rogers campaign. unforunately it gives zero freaks for the radio 1. is there a way in f10 in flight to find out freaks? 2. is it possible that perhaps in the future just how jester can 'tune TAC' and then tune the carrier or mother we can have also 'tune flight, tune wingman, tune package?
  10. u had me at a6 plus the hawk conversion was never proven iirc
  11. I saw in a youtube doc on Constant Peg it mentioned the Iranians let the Russians test out 2 A models. Obviously during the 80s. Anyone have more info? in here
  12. To start I knew a guy named sublime before who said people are ridiculous if they think I thought a module was going to be released 'TODAY!?!?!!?!?!'. I also have been on these boards years and whilst not obvious totally, no wait its pretty goddamn obvious it wasnt serious. it was more fishing/begging/whining. And please, no one act superior just because you do it with charts in your posts. I know its the equivalent, but Ive never heard its the equivalent in a *title* It was purposefully over the top Regardless it was silly to be so snarky about, and is silly to act superior about *cof cof* I wasnt aware patches only came at the end of the month. However I will say if you are mocking my title Ill gladly challenge you to A2A combat loser posts hes a total tool ( only because I still vaguely dont dislike you opposed to J/Off up above)
  13. +1 Pleeassse whatever happened to the randomzied pit idea anyone remember that? where they said theyd have a few pits? how about a dreastically scaled back version where they have a few BuNo plates totally O/T did anyone know the Soviet s apparently tested 2 F14As by Moscow courtesy of Tehran?!
  14. I think it prolly changed when they went to monthly :who knows: this threads going downhill now because ppl wanna put words or intent in my words
  15. Or maybe you could stop projecting on me. if there was any demand or shouting itd be clear. So uh no, and please dont speak for me I can speak for myself. Also dont tell me what to type or post, no one is making you read posts, nor act like you're a mod. * you are NOT a mod* no one is shouting, demanding, nor acting like a three year old. Someone is being an @sshole for no apparent reason though. Cheers to you
  16. no. I didnt. =(
  17. Read above I think so because they stated October numerous times the last 2 months
  18. i thought updates came friday? whend that change?
  19. 99% of the time never occurs but that 1% No matter what I do i die i believe in this track, I turn on emergency o2 then ram air and put it in a descent f not I just die in f10 I can reproduce this though It seems to get stuck on 'that' mission - it happened even on the ground in a DCE mission until I went to a totally diff mission Even descvending below 10k stops it, but then it occursagain and still kills!
  20. Ok. in flight. I can do coords. what about chucks guide saying if you put in RPs or PPs you can use waypoints 31 or 36 to nav? it doesnt work for me? anyone?
  21. Not wish list but things needed IFF Interrogate for jester Jester ability to use lantirn or at least 'jester lase primary target' or allow the mod that the dude made If you cant get jester to do it, cheat, and make LGBs dropped with jester auto track to the primary target? Idk. but as is, especially since in MP u cant jump seats... ehhh IFOLS clickable off or option off (the popup thing, I like it but others..) make it not crash when u switch tape sides (unless this is fixed?) TARPs pod? Improved jester targetting with missiles.... this just needs work The time to pitbull (time blinking) needs to be added for AIM54s Not much else I can think of.. ATM I mean I can add, and others have as well. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE you guys. Your works amazing. If Covid hadnt hit Id buy the viggen, but Im almsot homeless now =/ IFF interrogate is HUGE. I mean really guys, .... if not add declare to awacs (its something at least!) otherwise just give us the forrestal and AI a6s like u promised... and PM if u have enemies. Ill kill for an A6E module.
  22. JF17 if you want easy to learn but depth and modern F14 otherwise because .. its the frigging f14. helos? huey or wait for hind
  23. ill add I even offered cash!
  24. I desperatelyu wanted to. I never really got content for my p51. I couldnt get it to work =( the creator tried helping .. for 1 try and vanished
  25. when the F14 A is released, how can I switch the B to A in Iranian Tomcat over PG?
