If you search, there is a link to a thread somewhere where Cobra said it'll be out a day or two ahead of launch, if I remember correctly. I'll see if I can find the link, and if I can, I'll edit it in here. Edit: Found it:

Pretty sure it's part of the civilian airliners pack.

Except part of the RIOs job is to help spot targets...

Yeah, it's been in several of the videos. I don't always notice it on the first watch-through, though. I've been scoping every video for every detail I can.

If you are referring to the video by Jabbers, he posted somewhere on the forums saying he set up the couple commands specifically for that video. He didn't make a full profile for it.

I still can't decide if I'd rather be a RIO or pilot... ugh...

Yeah, from this link: http://www.anft.net/f-14/f14-squadron-vf031.htm it appears they went from the A, added upgrades, and then straight to the D.

There was a screenshot of a member of Heatblur saying the paint kit will be out a day or two before launch. You, or someone else, can make it then, and have it ready for the 13th.

There are already a couple threads on the subject. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=233711 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=232615

Yeah, my first 1/2 hour is going to be spent taking TONS of photos on the ground, before I ever even flip a switch.

I'm more than happy to fly prospective RIOs around, so they can learn their systems. Put up some Russian bears, with an escort or two, and keep practicing.

It releases March 13th to Open Beta. It'll be playable then.

This game was my first time getting to "fly" the F-14. Ah, the memories....

If you're still looking for people for that Top Gun video you were talking about, I'd be down to help out.

Just so I don't miss the video, when is it coming out...? ( It's worth a shot, right? )

You know you can edit the position yourself, right? Pretty easily, might I add. There is a decent tutorial/write-up on the forums that I used to help with the F/A-18 JHMCS alignment "issue."

How would that help immersion any more than the way it already is? In real life, you don't switch back and forth between positions, so even being able to in the sim/game is, in and of itself, "immersion breaking."

That is meant to be released as a complete module, from my understanding. This is meant to be an EA release. There is a big difference in the two, and why one would get sent back for de-bugging, and why the other would be given a green light.

Some of these videos are being produced to be a part of the manual, hence they have certain things to go over in each video, and they don't want to get sidetracked doing multiple things in one video. They've ( the content creators ) already also stated that they are not giving away too much of the jet, because they want the end user to be able to get a full experience when we finally get our hands on this beautiful beast.

It's a long line, for sure. Speaking of which, can you hold my spot? I'll be right back, just gotta visit the loo.

Hey, bud, get in line, hahaha.

I mean, if you need more people to test a busier multiplayer environment, I have plenty of free time. :music_whistling::pilotfly:

If you're still looking, I'm an avid reader, and I have nothing but time right now.

Best of luck to ya, bud.
