[MB-339A/PAN by Frecce Tricolori Virtuali]

In game the SideWinder was a test we do, and we choose to not include pre-made payloads with it, since a special rail is needed under the pylons to carry it.

About the real AC, yes the Mb-339A was tested in evaluation with the AIM-9L and Matra Magic, it was implemented in 1986 by MB-339A I-GROW (testbed for the Platform later named MB-339C).

Italy choose the MB-339A only as light trainer Aircraft, not CAS or air defense role, but for the export version in this role it was able to carry ELT-555 ecm pod in conjuction with 2 SideWinder or Magic missiles.

 

 

Thanks for the clarification!

HIGHLY SATISFIED

 

I've been flying this beautiful thing for an entire day now, and I enjoyed it a lot! Thank you guys so much for creating this fun and high-quality mod!

 

 

 

Here are some of the bugs that I've experienced (though you guys might have already been aware of most of these):

 

When starting from the ground, the parking brake level appears to be in the released position, though the brake is in fact applied, meaning I have to click twice to release the brake;

 

The NWS indicator illuminates when the NWS is disabled;

 

TrackIR doesn't work with the normal "HEADTRACKER" control category, only the "TrackIR" category, which creates a lot of inconveniences (i.e. not able to use head tracking in exterior views; not able to use head tracking at all after switching back from another aircraft);

 

When wingtip tanks are installed, the warning panel indicates that the tanks are empty;

 

I tried using the salvo jettison button for once and it obliterated the engine for some reason. I will try to replicate the situation to see what happened.

 

And as for the "wish list":

 

Brake axes;

 

Zoom axis;

 

Three-way switch control for the airbrake;

 

Three-way switch control for the flaps;

 

Smoother animation for rudder and landing gears;

 

The performance chart for calculating rotation speed and things;

 

Radio navigation;

 

and more (Sorry guys, I'm picky :smartass:)

 

In addition, does the MB-339A carry heaters IRL? It feels like only the C variant carries heaters. AIM-9P is certainly available in game, but there is no tone, no uncage control and no missile rail whatsoever.

Yes, a custom user manual will be shipped with the package, but we cannot include or provide links of original manuals: the MB-339 is still in service and some sections are classified and cannot be divulged.

 

Thank you for the clarification. That explains a lot.

 

And, since I'm looking for the dive bombing table (the main reason I'm searching for the volume 2), will there be a dive bombing table included in the manual? It's quite important for flying ground attack missions.

 

Just curious. :smartass:

Looks amazing! I have been waiting for this for a while. Didn't expect it to be ready for release this soon.

 

One quick question:

Are there any documents that are going to be shipped with this mod?

If not, do any of you guys have a copy of the MB-339A weapons delivery manual volume 2?

I bought the volume 1, and can't find the volume 2 online (I would like to use the bombing table), at least not through English sources.

[Sinicization of the manual]

If Razbam recognizes the need, there are always people who are willing to help (yours truly, for example), though judging by the current pocket guide the final manual shouldn't be hard to understand.
