LMAO!!!!!!!! Backing up my words now

My apologies it is more a manual in video form!

Some are sure. But coop only works with MPRF! It works in any mode automatically all the time in flanker! And the HUD? The Flanker has 24 HUD improvements over the fulcrum! It’s mind blowing! Why is IRST vertical scan only 16 degrees up when they obviously know how to do vertical scan with radar mode? Why not show IFF when my radar is literally locked? The Soviets have inexplicable confusing design decisions on almost every product they make. It is practically a characteristic of the Soviet era. Especially for MiG products such as the 29 where the idea was to make a plane that was “just good enough” as cheap as possible. Why downgrade the IRST material from MiG-23, why not show target location within 8 km like MiG-23, I want to eat a rye bread sandwich while my plane flies itself to the GCI Target Like MiG-23

There is engine relight switch, but not yet implemented. It is for emergencies anyways as engines should re start on their own if all things work properly.

Hello, this video details every single spec about the radar and IRST air to air modes. You’ll learn all there is to know, scan times lock times, which mode is better at what, which vertical scan covers more space, notch speeds getting rid of notch speeds and other filters, coverage of each mode, many tips and other little related things. What isn’t implemented but will be. Everything! I apologize for all the numbers, I just hope it helps some people out there! Next is COOP mode once it is more complete!

Yes, I just released a video on all the sensor mode specs if you are interested. Zone select switch on top left panel, but for IRST it already slews the entire azimuth in center, so left/right only makes it scan that half of the original scan zone. I can get F-14/15 from 15-30 km, F-18 less, F-16 no more then 18 km or so. In Mil power atleast.

I’m not saying it’s a good thing. I’m saying that MiG-29 is chock full of inexplicable design decisions and things that don’t make sense. Apparently an RWR that didn’t work well with radar atleast a lot of the time? Same RWR only shows a notch within WVR ranges? An IRST vertical scan that only goes 16 degrees up when it could have gone 30 degrees up despite being the fastest scanning mode? Coop mode forces MPRF/pursuit mode for some reason locking IRST out from picking up any HPRF/head on mode lock? Oh, it’s fine that you don’t have enough down elevator to counter the pitch up at low altitude and heavy payload at high speed. Yeah, let’s make LEF only have two positions so you have a stark transition between up and down? Yeah, let’s use a complex bifurcated louvered intake that reduces fuel space instead of the intake grids Sukhoi was using at the same time? Yeah. Let’s make them put radar to EKV/dummy to use COOP only in IRST modes, even though the system is already fully capable of turning radar on and off in ILLUM. Yeah, let’s have the radar scan a 50 x 11 degree area when range finding instead of just the target location. Even though it already only return range when looking at target. We used InSb sensitive IRST crystals in MiG-23, lets use worse PbSe crystals for the IRST this time! You know what, let’s put some of the symbology including the entire right HUD border only on the HDD! And we won’t have it show target location within 8 km like MiG-23! It won’t show target location at all unless in gun mode! Let’s basically do nothing but digitize MiG-23 HUD why add anything new! No target speed or altitude even though the plane knows it! Yeah autopilot could fly plane under Lazur guidance for MiG-23, let’s remove it for MiG-29! Well even use smaller flares then MiG-23! Make HUD show IFF in coop when radar is leading? Nope, only in Radar mode! it is so full of “they could’ve easily made that so much better!” And “why the hell did they do that?” And “Jesus why did they make it this way?” Design decisions, that it not being to lock a target in gun mode hardly passes as a blip on my common sense radar so to speak. Im sure they were like “a smart pilot will enable coop so both sensors lock, and it will stay locked” and went about their day.

Great video, glad someone put Gvad’s claims to the test!

Why is it insane?

I’m not sure this is incorrect. Combat employment says nothing. You can always use coop with rest in dummy do if one sensor loses lock the other will pick it up

Fulcrum and Flanker really shows how scared NATO was. Something that allows you to move a heavy object with less force and something that attacks your weak sides? Oh yeah I would love it too

Was this online? There’s been an online issue of this

They will be forced down when you blow them up!

They did is because westerns would get confused by 9.12A

An axis that steps through the knob positions?

Modified for navigation

Yes it has stick pusher. Force only increases 17 kg when hit limit it’s not always 26 degrees, could be 15 if LEF are up. At different speeds it may lift stick forward for two degrees of elevator, or 15 (from Mach 0.45-0.72)

The circle interception cue is nice for BVR though, as it shows you where to put your nose so your missile has the shortest and most straight path to the target giving it the highest energy

Yea true

One of 24 things they improved the HUD with in Su-27

Yes

Look at it this way, if you set the curve in DCS, the in game stick position and FFB stick position won’t match. Let’s say I fly a helicopter with force trim. I trim left, but becuase I set up a curve in DCS, it thinks after trimming the stick should be closer to center, so my FFB moves away from the spot I trimmed which it shouldn’t do. If you set it up in independent software for the stick it should be fine

It only knows to light up target at 90/50 when the 50/90 antenna is lit ( from the side so needs high signal strength) AND when the rear antenna of that side is lit up by the same signal ( rear antennas also weak.) So, signal only at 50/90 antenna? Only 50 light lights up. Signal only at rear antenna? Only rear light lights up. Same signal hitting both 50/90 antenna and rear antenna on that side? Then light up both 50 and 90 degree lights.

It seems perfect for me at low G But if target is turning at high G, I find I need to shoot just ahead Don’t know if it’s intended or not

I think we need reverse psychology for that by now
