:megalol: Looks great

without his probe :D Joke apart, yes it's removable. But no user who is using flight refueling takes the pain to remove it.

:megalol:

So if I understand well: - ACM panel has button to manage missile preparation and normal/ bore sight mode for missile launch mode. - flipping up ACM cover forces missile preparation and put missiles into boresight mode without touching the Normal/ Boresight button. - AIM-9 are uncaged into SEAM search pattern. For AIM-7, you would have 4 ways to get into boresight mode (which is actually flood mode). - Normal/ Boresight button - flip up ACM cover - launch AIM-7 without lock (even in normal mode ACM cover down) - loose STT lock after launch. Did I miss something ? :book: It’s quite confusing since there are multiples ways to do the same thing :huh:

True :D But in VR it feels like you're actually wearing the flight suit. And given what we see here, it's promising to be awesome :thumbup:

DCS is developing actively naval operations, but I noticed the log book doesn’t make any difference between landing count on runway and on aircraft carrier. It would be cool to count aircraft carrier traps :thumbup:

Good tutorial :smilewink:

I don't want to enter into politics as BIGNEWY said, but Iranian authorities lied so much already about that disaster that it's hard to give credit to their explanations. Just thinking about it, since USA didn't retaliate to the last Iranian strike, and it was very soon after Iranian missiles launch, what or who could have caused the Iranian SAM defense network jamming ? The flight radar report shows a normal departure trajectory.

Ouch, it hurts :( Thanks for the answer :thumbup:

Hi, I’m new to the Tomcat. Sorry if the question has been asked before. If I shoot AIM-54 at long range and crank, will the radar adjust to keep targets in scan zone ? Thanks.

This is a new bug introduced by Elwood months ago. It used to work fine, this is a basic function of the radar which is the primary sensor. Half or twice value bugs shouldn’t be that difficult to correct. :doh:

I tried last week, it’s accurate. Just take note that maximum range is when the circle range (decreasing counter clockwise) is at 9 o’clock and below. The range isn’t the same for AG gun and rocket, but it’s the same principle. :smilewink:

I don't know if SAM systems like SA-15 are receiving ADS-B ? Yes I know, we all have Flight Radar 24 or something like that on our smartphone, but it doesn't mean that SAM operators are using it.

Each aircraft his own. You have only one trigger to shoot both weapons, so you can only shot one type at a time with the Mirage. You also have to select one type at a time on PCA. So it's AG gun or rockets. I just tried. To fire 4 pods at once: - PCA select RK3 then on upper line both INT + EXT - PPA switch from PAR to TOT (push button on the low right). But there is a bug: RK3 should not appear on the left window of PCA. When no Magic, this one is left empty. So RK3 should be on the second window from the left. Sorry, Rift S screenshot, I was testing Modicap headphones at the same time.

By design, no way to fire AG gun & rockets at the same time. You may be right for the 4 rockets pod at the same time, will look if I find something...

There was no real on going conflict in Iran. USA didn't perform any strike in Iran...

Looks like dead link.

I won’t say the title here to avoid problem. But there is a VR Simulator with fictive aircraft designed to be flown with virtual controllers. The VR pilot hands replicate your controllers positions. So you see the hands in game move on each buttons. But it isn’t as realistic or with as good graphics as DCS. Yet it was designed from ground up for VR use. :smilewink: I tried, but I think transition from HOTAS to VR controllers and back is too much complicated with headset designed to cut you from the real world. So for the time being I’m not sure animated arms does worth the extra work. My 2 cents... That Mirage pilot is piece of art though :thumbup: I will surely spend some time admiring my virtual flight suit, Mae West and G pants in my Rift S:D

You can do this test: - place a target in front of you, same altitude (a friendly target is less dangerous :D). B-52 is good because you will detect at max range (head on = 80Nm). - place your radar cursor at target range. - move elevation up/ down and watch min/ max altitude values next to cursor (x1000ft). - you will see that even if the contact is within altitude coverage, the detection is quickly lost. Now if you look on the left of VTB there is a vertical scan. - mark every 10° and a bigger one at 30° There is a moving - which is indicating which line is currently being scanned, and the line number (for instance 4) which indicates the center if scan zone setting. You will notice that as soon as you adjust elevation, the moving - moves up/ down at twice the rate of line number. If you set 4 on +10°, the - will be sweeping around +20°, +30° will scan at +60°. So it isn’t a random bug. It’s a coding mistake which has been there for months, I did report to Elwood, it is still not corrected (or maybe if update since yesterday, I didn’t check update today).

I thought the USMC fighters were meant to become all F-35B/C ?

Awesome :thumbup:

I would just say: let's wait until we actually have Malvinas map, assets pack and flyable aircraft to play with it. Then we can worry about the next one :smilewink: But I'm eager to play on South Atlantic map too !

For what it worth, I think both Mirage 2000 and F-16 are combat proven fighters and plenty capable. The reasons why Greek keep both fleet: - Turkey has F-16 too and knows it very well. Mirage 2000 with ECM and missiles must have some tricks Turkey don't know about. - France provided to Greece some key weapons that USA probably didn't want to provide to keep good relationship with Turkey (AM39 and SCALP/ STORM SHADOW) .

You need to type 11830 :smilewink:
