I don't have any issue entering waypoints in VR directly in cockpit now that i'm used to it. Put AP On, copy coordinates on paper, enter them in PCN, AP std by and fly to target. Same for Viper or Hornet

It's D and G variant sorry, i've edited my previous post. It's documented that automated mechanization works for AGM 65 D/G, and that AGM-65 video is compared to TGP video and slewed to align with TGP video, track is then commanded. So to have AGM video and TGP video compared, makes sense to have TGP in same video mode than AGM65. Wags also mention in his video that AUTO hand off is only available for D/G variant Documentation don't mention H/K CCD variant. From Wags video, it seems it will only be able to correlate AGM-65 H/K LOS with TGP , then you'll have to switch to WPN page to manually lock the target.

Had the same issue, until i saw this post: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4501641&postcount=4 So it seems Auto handoff would work only with D and G variant, and TGP in BHOT/WHOT. To be confirmed, but at least it works fine under these conditions. Man handoff works with other conditions.

Standard Typhoon AoA for landing is 13, standard landing AoA for Hornet is 8.1 Not the whole story, but it gives you an idea. Edit: damn, too slow! :doh:

It could be included also in the Future Data Cartridge ED is working on. Just ideas :) i'll create my own kneeboard page in the meantime:thumbup:

Would be great if the SAM codes could be added in the kneeboard (with laser code for GBU)

Same here. I've been reading a lot about it since it has been announced and i am discovering a lot of great capabilities and features. Also very confident in the high fidelity of the product with all the Typhoon knowledge available in TG team, and partnership they have.

Typhoon pilot mentioned in the fighter pilot podcast, that if he get too slow, he could just put the AB and go vertical to dive back behind the enemy, something the hornet can't do, so he mentioned it's not really an issue.

Knowing that F-16 doesn't have a good nose authority, i'm a bit surprised the Typhoon has even less. Compared to Rafale or Hornet it's not surprising, but compared to F-16 i was not expecting it I guess you're talking about 1.0G acceleration right ? I guess that in BFM you can bleed energy quickly (and decelerate) if required due the delta wing ? I'm really curious and excited by this project, as TG is full of knowledgeable people on the Tyhoon. Can't wait to see the result !

Wow, i already had in mind to not bind a command on the throttle for DVI as i thought it would be skipped. Wondering how you guys will implement it ! :thumbup:

Might have been announced too early. It will be hard to wait several years :cry:

He was asked about DACT, that's why he mentioned his experience against the Typhoon. It's well documented that Rafale have very good results against Typhoons on those kind of exercise (at least by Frenchies :)). But he did mention that Typhoon has the edge in high altitude, hence they won't try to fight them in their confort zone. Anyway, let just be happy to have two wonderful European aircrafts and that we can be very efficient working together :thumbup: We might all praise the FCAS in the future :D

Link in the article mentionned by the OP : https://hushkit.net/2019/11/11/flying-fighting-the-dassault-rafale-interview-with-a-rafale-combat-veteran/ Explain well why it's silly to try to compare Rafale and Typhoon.

Not biased at all toward the typhoon....:music_whistling: Looking for excuses everywhere for the Typhoon, best part being: "Leaked Swiss evaluation report The leaked evaluation report from the Swiss fighter contest of 2008/09 put the Rafale ahead of Typhoon in almost every category tested, what do you make of this? Any fighter evaluation depends on the details of the assessment criteria for each exercise and without seeing those, I cannot possibly speculate. However, one thing which is worth noting is that the Typhoon sent to Switzerland was apparently a tranche 1 and one with problems. Someone involved in the competition told me in person that ‘the Swiss told us [Typhoon] that technically speaking we had brought the finest jet of the bunch, but it was as if we had brought a Mercedes sports car where the door wouldn’t shut properly and the air conditioning was broken’." It's total BS... It constantly refers to Typhoon futur upgrade, but it doesn't mention the ones for the Rafale Talks only about power for engine, not consumption... "MICA which is not credible beyond 20km" -> LOL If UK want to try to convince themselves Typhoon is the best plane in the world, so be it. We just don't care which aircraft is the best, we are just happy our country went for the Rafale in France, it answers our needs, not the Typhoon. And we all know the results of simulated engagement between Rafale and Typhoon IRL :music_whistling:

:book:

Same here

Yes it does

Wags mentionned in his video on the TGP update that slewing the TGP should not move anymore the selected steerpoint on the HSD. I've noticed that when slewing the TGP, Range and Bearing are modified on the EHSI. Not sure if it's intended behaviour or if it's a bug. Anyone knows ?

A S530D will have a decent Pk when launched at 20 Nm when flying at around 35k around Mach 1+ if bandit is lazy with counter maneuver. Switching from PID to PIC is (was) used IRL by M2000C pilot to try make opponent react, even at range above 20 Nm. Success depends of the opponent and his knowledge of your systems/weapons.

To make things short: INS drift and update are bugged, disable Gyro Drift in your options :thumbup:

Not clicking on Target unlock ?

31X works, we use it regularly in our squadron :thumbup: I guess you have set tacan to A/A on the right console

We are a lot feeling the same :( Hope came back the last few months as some old bugs were fixed and new features added. But unfortunately Zeus seems to be a bit lonely and is now focused back on the Harrier. I guess we have to wait until focus switch back on the Mirage...

As dead as it can be. Look for the typhoon instead, it will probably be out well before having any news on a 2000-5 We will see if Razbam will ever finish the M2000C first, as Zeus announced on discord that it's back in the queue :doh:. He is back working on the Harrier.

Can you provide a screenshot ? You are in Nav mode if you can select APP and see ILS cue in the HUD.
