  1. This... As an “every day use” weapon, I’m not all that enthralled with the L If self-lasing, you have to drive in uncomfortably close and I much prefer to “shoot & scoot” but the L is awesome with a JTAC or FAC(A) handling the designation.
  2. More importantly, neither will their Air Force customers who will be training on this to fly the real thing...
  3. Using the DSMS INV page is, I think, infinitely easier than using the Boat Switch.
  4. Didn’t have it in Hog2 pre Mod under the latest OB version. I have seen it off and on in Hog1 and yes, it’s been a running gun battle to get ED recognize it because it’s not always immediately reproduceable. Sometimes deleting / rebuilding the metashaders folder helps. Some say turning the setting for chimney smoke down to zero helps. Some say it’s related to whatever alchemy nVidia is doing with their drivers. But nothing concrete has ever been nailed down to the best of my knowledge.
  5. Warehouse has munitions via Mission Editor? Which aircraft?
  6. Airfield belongs to your coalition? Not Bad Guys? Not Neutral?
  7. Definitely makes nice, rich columns of smoke from burning vehicles... Does the OP (or anyone) have any suggestions regarding the TGP "White Out" / "Black Out" that occurs depending on whether you're in WHOT or BHOT?
  8. RWY 5 is the "Calm Wind Runway" at Incirlik in DCS. Unless the surface winds force a change to RWY 23, the ILS is probably hot on RWY 5.
  9. You should only lase in the terminal phase .. like the last 12-15 seconds before impact.
  10. It was addressed in another post as a function to zoom the map rapidly to your SPI.

    HUD Sampling

    I think the point being made is that HUDs do not refresh smoothly like a TV or Computer screen. Their update or refresh rate is on the order of 10fps or so and they skip numbers as they "catch up" with the data stream.
  12. The intersection sign should read the other way. As it is, it's telling you you're at the departure end of 27 when you're actually at RWY 9.
  13. Or just turn the map off and back to where you had it would be handy...
  14. https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker/conflict/civil-war-syria
  15. If you search “DCS A10C AAR” on YouTube, you’ll get about 300 choices. Nothing about the process has changed with A10C2
  16. I’m with Falcon. Just want to know what the heck it’s supposed to do?
  17. This video doesn’t prove anything about how the pilot sees it as this is either a direct feed being recorded or it’s the HUD camera which never moves relative to the display on the combiner glass. Personally, I find the current HUD lightyears ahead of where it was in Hog 1 prior to the release of Hog 2. I can see every piece of data without excessive head movement. If this is what we get, I’m good with it.
  18. Used to have both but our vSquadron is 100% OB so I blew out Stable.
  19. FWIW, it will eventually all become so second nature that you will lose the ability to describe how things are done. There are many functions that I have to actually stop and draw a diagram if I'm going to try and explain it because so much is deeply ingrained now and I just DO IT without thinking. Hang in there...
  20. I like the OP’s #5. Hadn’t ever considered parking a convoy unless / until somebody is in the neighborhood. Just out of curiosity, how big a zone do you use to kickstart them?
  21. Beauty of a Mark. Thanks for sharing!
  22. There is no circular release cue in the middle of the HUD anymore. Left side of the HUD, there’s a “Range Staple” just like for the Maverick. There’s a range and countdown to valid release. The problem is that that release cue is far smaller than it should be if you’re at a reasonable altitude. Right now, even at 20,000’ you only get like a two or three second window to pickle and you end up at about 2.5nm from the target. Way closer than you should be. If you watch Wags’ Intro To The GBU-54 video on YouTube you’ll notice that even at only about 11,000’, his release cue is nearly as tall as that for a Maverick shot. IOW, I don’t think we get the traditional CCRP release a la GBU-12s. You fly the drop line down the middle of the HUD and pickle manually once your range falls inside the range staple and you have a manual release consent. Going by what I’m describing, I’ve had no issues getting weapons off the jet. It’s just the ballistics “math” that’s not working right (yet),
