With the Viper and Hornet, you've got just the two radios. Keep AWACS/Strike in Comm1 and the JTAC Comm2. You're not going to be in comms with more than two external (to your flight) assets at any given time, really. Plus, don't forget to monitor guard! If someone else wants to talk to you, they'll call you on that! :-)

You could push the wingman over to the JTAC frequency that you're working, that should do it.

I haven’t played around with it too much, but the set mission briefing action might be what you’re looking for for now. You can type plain text into the action, and it will appear when the player selects Alt-B. (It’s not a knee board but it’s a start.

Just downloaded, can't wait to give it a go! Thanks for sharing, Suntsag!

Thanks, Painter! Yes, the MANPADs are quite dangerous, I've found I get shot down a fair amount of times :-)

Sounds like a great idea, but my time is currently booked trying to finish my Hornet campaign. Perhaps in the new year (but maybe by then we'll have a Syria map)!

I have noticed that as well, I think it has to do with the outside air temperature. I took the mission and changed it to be above freezing and the engine seemed normal. I'm wondering if it has something to do with ED modeling the engine at lower temps. Not sure if it 's a feature or if it's a bug.

@Lukino81 and Viking 1-1, thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the missions so far!

I've just tested this on Nevada map, I've got a preset set to 37.5 but it shows up at 375.0 in the scratchpad DED when I cycle through the presets, and I cannot contact a JTAC on 37.5. However, when I take a look at the cockpit parameters, it will show COMM2 set to 37.5. Odd.

Thanks! Mission 2 the channel to push to is 13 Right (VHF), not 10. I think that's what the issue is here. I've changed the mission so the text message will stay up on the screen longer until you have time to set the correct frequency. I've found formatting tables in the briefing is a PITA, but I will see what I can do. I'll also speed up the tanker in Mission 3. Thanks for the feedback!

This looks cool! Thanks for the resource, will dig into this!

Weird... I'm not sure, it was working last I checked. In any event, the mission is scripted that you should only need to fly within 300ft or so and then you can call refuel complete. I'll have a look next weekend and see if I can find the culprit.

Not yet, hopefully next patch.

The waypoints are they are now are about 500ft agl in the editor. I've just reuploaded a newer version that has them lower (version 1.96)

Thanks for the feedback! Are you using v1.95?

One more from me... Is it possible to make the mission briefing text formatted? Like the ability to define paragraphs, bold and bigger headings, insert tables, etc...

Are you using the correct keybinds for the different radios? The "" key won't work once airborne.

Totally! For me too, learning the quirks and idiosyncrasies of a new aircraft are indeed half the fun, be it real life or DCS. I'm having a blast the the F-16 so far!

Let me know how it turns out!

Thank you so much! I really do appreciate it!

If you're careful, you can set the Dodge 11 and Dodge 12 to client and fly as a two player COOP. The triggers are based on Dodge 11, so if 11 gets shot down, then the triggers won't work and the mission will kind of break. If you do decide to do this, make the radio presets are loaded correctly for both jets (or make sure you look at this table and plug in the correct frequencies manually during the mission when prompted) UHF RADIO (COMM1) [TABLE]CHANNEL FREQ USE 1 270.1 KLSV ATIS 2 289.4 KLSV CLND 3 275.8 KLSV GROUND 4 327 KLSV TOWER 5 385.4 KLSV DEPARTURE 6 273.5 KLSV ARRIVAL 7 317.5 SALLY CNTRL 8 254.4 LEE CNTRL 9 305.6 SOF 10 343.725 SFA 11 270.1 KLSV ATIS 12 360.625 KINS TOWER 13 234.325 COYOTE 14 289.3 CALIENTE 15 228 RANGE 74 16 363.9 RANGE 75 17 238.8 ALAMO 18 231.1 JUICE 19 261.1 DREAMLAND APPROACH 20 300.05 HAVE QUICK TOD[/TABLE] VHF RADIO (COMM2) [TABLE]CHANNEL FREQ USE 1 138.05 VIPER TAC-1 2 141.9 VIPER TAC-2 3 138.95 VIPER TAC-3 4 148.15 BLACKJACK VHF 5 150.15 ODIN OPS 6 123.45 COMMON VICTOR 7 139.9 THOR OPS 8 140.5 OSIRIS OPS 9 143.85 THUNDER BASE 10 143.075 SOF VICTOR 11 142.175 KLSV BASE OPS V 12 139.55 KINS BASE OPS V 13 142.55 R2505 V 14 133.3 LOS ANGELES CTR 15 125.125 RANGE 74 16 137.8 RANGE 75 17 150.25 ALAMO 18 118.05 JUICE 19 130.0 DREAMLAND APPROACH 20 141.2 HAVE QUICK TOD [/TABLE] I've got no plans right now to make a dedicated COOP version, mainly because I'm working hard on a new 13 mission, single player campaign for the Hornet on the PG map. As far as COOP missions go, it's somewhat difficult for me to do as I don't have any RL friends who are into DCS, and my work schedule is variable each day. So it's hard to commit time to work out the bugs flying with others.

I'm glad you liked them! I think I'll leave them as single player missions for now.... It's possible I'll revisit Eastern Friendship and turn it into a campaign at some point.

OK, a bit of an update to the mission... It's now a cold start mission, so you've got from 1603-1611 to get the jet ready for taxi. There are new voice overs and some additional threats and triggers to make it a bit more randomly challenging. Good luck! https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3306417/
