Mate that looks unreal, your own design or bought? I must admit now that I have a somewhat accurate stick I'm staring to want an accurate throttle/flaps/wingsweep quadrant.

I was referring to everything purely in game, I wouldn’t suggest that a crew would ‘forget’ such a procedure unless I had read it anecdotally. Those failures you’ve mentioned are what I would like to see modelled in game.

So if one were to forget to select an air source fogging and the such would be present? I’d like to see further development of the effects of not correctly selecting an airsource as I’ve frequently seen people turning it off during flight in DCS to remove the noise.

What about the sharks with frickin lasers on their frickin heads?

Clubleaf skins are uploaded, will have some VF-74 skins from the same cruise out very soon!

Yes I agree with context, since in DCS we simulate wartime scenarios. I think that showing the Tomcat in what it mostly looked like during war, such as how ‘most’ were in DS, is more accurate and representative than fresh gloss CAG birds and the such. High tempo flight ops, such as in a Red Storm Rising where the Sluggers are heavily featured, would results in birds that have noticeable weathering on them.

No impressing you is there mate haha . I think you'll find it more than easy to find so many pictures of mid/late cruise birds being covered in corrosion control, so to say it's not typical doesn't seem correct, have you seen any pictures of VF-74/103 during DS and how their birds looked, or VF-41/84 for that matter?

Mod uploaded, this is only my interpretation and in now way am I claiming to be more accurate than HB. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3320400/

Here is my edit for the HUD. I'll upload it soon.

Curious to see if this corrosion control gets LanceCriminals approval and I'll upload these VF-103 skins.

Sorry everyone, but I've lost these skins and the work I had done for VF-74. My attention is now only basically doing A skins sorry!

Very nice, but let’s also hope the cat walks get the same treatment!

Cheers for the reply mate! Though it still doesn't answer my question on the ALR-45, does HB still consider it apart of the core F-14 package or has it become a "Cherry on top" that will see less development attention as you've mentioned?

Wasn't the AN/ALR-45/50 always meant to come with the F-14A? Seems somewhat strange to hear this is a cherry on top when the first sign of it was teased nearly 5 years ago. I worry slightly that with the F-4/EF/A-6 all in development that the F-14 EA may creep for far longer than any EA has the right to. Considering there are still many lingering smaller items that need to be corrected with both the B and A, how long does HB consider a EA period to be?

The A+ came with the AN/ALR-67, this would come quite some time later for A’s. Which is obviously a great leap over the existing AN/ALR-45/50 and I believe all A+‘s had all the upgrades that were spread across the fleet from the factory whereas most A’s where a huge mismatch of existing gear.

I think you’ll find this applies to quite literally any rocket motor and its fuel source.

What has this got to remotely do with the pilot body feature?

Was also going to say this, maybe cross controls causes the SAS to induced adverse behaviour? But I can’t ever recall remembering to turn it off and have I’ve done quite a lot of BFM against human players without ever noticing it above 30 AOA.

This basically also renders all of my Backfire V CVBG missions useless as the AI will try and close to sparrow range, but burn all their fuel before they get there and eject. This is despite having limit afterburner use selected, boy is the AI in DCS some of the worst and most game ruining out there.

I wouldn't mind if we had the pilot look as cool as this.
