DUDE! I am an American, a man of the West. Former US Army (R) officer (13A Field Artillery). To me if it originates in wicked East its OPFOR. If it wore a red star once in its service life, its OPFOR. If it was given to any group or nation that has People's or Liberation or Front or Revolutionary or Soviet or Socialist or Islamic in its name it is OPFOR. MIG-23 is a subpar interceptor from wicked East. F-111 could outturn it.

In real world. Customer comes first. Case in point. Lockheed Electra. Electra had crashes due to wing separation. Lockheed enlisted help of Boeing and McDonell and CAB (precursor to FAA) to help find issue. Their competition and disagreements took a distant second to flight safety. In case of DCS, users come first. Mirage and other Razbam modules are released and being used by . ED+Razbam have a duty to update and maintain existing modules, regardless of disgreements. They have right to not release future modules. They even have a right to stop development on existing modules. But shipped version must be maintained for at least two years prior to module being declared legacy.

That just blinktity-blankity me OFF to no end! Its a bug. A darn insect! That has been crushed!

I want to upload track. But 1.218 KB size exceeds 493kb limit.

Does not solve the ssue . As fuel availability is not recorded on kneepad, thus not seen by sim. In RL, the pilot signs for an aircraft and for fuel , from the chief. THen sets totalizer as part of checklist. This differs from type to type. Intent is to make pilot congnizant of fuel at every phase of flight.

Does take perseverance and HOTAS+pedals to learn to fly DCS helicopters. Whenever I am away from DCS, as I was until recently, I refresh my basic skills in UH-1H, and basic fixed wing fast jet in F-5E.

My nosewheel steering is on. When I am taking off or landing, the aircraft, once in high speed roll, above NWS speed, uncontrolably pulls to either left or right side. Running off the runway. NWS and rudder have no effect. Popping the brake parachute actually makes things worse. NWS automaticaly switches off above 40 KIAS ground speed, and switches on below 40. Between 40 and 100 where rudder begins to take effect, the aircraft pull to side without control. Full rudder and even opposite wheel brake do not arrest behavior. This problem is prominent in Nevada/Cold Start so there is no cross wind.

I get that. But the knee pad would still show available fuel. Internal and external. External tank is not registering by the sim.

I am loading full tank. However I beleive the fuel totalizer has to be set mannually in missions. Even though in Quickstart missions it is automatically set.

I guess I am welcome at the party, to which I am late to. But its great that its fixed. I am returning to M2KC after almost a year, and back to DCS after 5 months. I am shocked how much I have forgotten, and how much muscle memory on HOTAS nees to be refreshed. It is 'painfull'. I wonder if real pilots go through that with type re-familirization after absence? What agreement has broken between ED and RAZBAM. I own Mirage ,Harrier II, and S.Atl. I am planning on getting F-15E + F-4E(maybe). Are these all at risk?

Found the error Step 6 is wrong Step 6 should be AG designate.

I have forgotten the intermediate step to how to designate AG target point for MK-82 and SMP-250 freefall bombs. I thought that AG point is designated using NWS buttton. But thats not it. 1. Master Arm: ON 2. Slect BL1 on weapons PCN 3. Weapons CMD FWD 4. Be at 425 KIAS 5. Place HUD AG dioamond over target 6. Press Nosewheel steering button to designate TGT 7. Press 2nd Stage Trigger for bomb release For some reason this is not happening for me. Weapons wont drop. I am missing something, and I even remember what I am suppoused to be looking for.

So G-Limiter no longer works on cold starts on ground. AC is always limiteed to 6G?

Hypothetically. Lets say a dev holds rights to DCS: Jaguar and DCS: F-111C/F (but not SAC B), and has resources for one , but not both, and unwilling to let either of rights go. What is more preferrable for DCS strike fixed wing community? DCS: SEPACAT Jaguar or DCS: F-111C/F? I am with team Jag. Probably British and French DCS playas would go with that. Americans and Australians, reliving golden years of Cold War, would likely opt for F-111.

This table does not work for me at all, when it comes to freefall and ret bombs. Guns , gunpod, and rocket SNEB table depressions are good.

The depression angle, we set in cokpit, is what we have for sight. We dont CCIP or CCRP, or radar bombing. Depression settings have to be predictable for aircraft attitude and altitude , with respect to target, to be usefull. I found that depression settings for freefall and balute bombs to be nonsense! They don't work. Bombs fall so far off target, either short or long, as to be useless. Well,at least to me. For freefall bombs, sight depression of 150 should be used for following aircraft attitude. 4000 feet above target 420 knots speed 15 degree dive 150 mil depression, 20 deg. dive ; 100 mil depression. Mill iis a milliradian. There are 6400 miliradians in a circle. So its a really fine unit of measurement. 1.8 km or about 1 nm slant distance from target. When those conditions are met at release, bombs should impact near the target within 100 meters. Well within blast radius. I get nothing even remotely close.

I have it set to FF with manually entered freq. Usually for ATC. For some reason, on every mission, at random time, it simply stops working. No transmissios! The radio frequency flashes , but there is no transmission, and no reply. Not from ATC, not from wingmen.

It feels, to me, that if internal fuel is not set to 100%, that external center tank, is invisible.I check the fuel gauge at start up. I am just returning to M2KC after a year away, so I may be imagining things. Pic below shows M2KC in South Atlantic in Punto Arenas. Int fuel is 95% with external center tank. Note that 990kg external fuel is not reported.

I got two issues. Centerline ext. tank , not feeding or registered. I thought it was automatic. Note that knee pad shows no internal fuel, while there is a external centerline tank. IFF on preventing VHF radio (FF manual) mode from transmitting.

I forgot everything. Relearning, remembering. I see there is now Mode 2 IFF implemented. Is that only for network play?

What conflict? Will there be mod terrain for ED-Razbam conflict? Who won or is winning?

The general rule for sight depression table. The shallower the dive angle or near level delivery, the high the depression angle. Ret. bombs need even more depression. Release speed shpould 400, 420 , or 450. Very seldom should bombs be released above that velocity. In dive you need airbrakes out. I started with 50, which works great for guns, gunpods, and SNEBs with 420 knots , 1-5 deg dive, and 1/2 nm or less slant distance to tgt. Even then in F1, its like firing a shotgun from hip, at 50 or 100 meter target on gunrange. The spread is so large in F1. Probably by design. Mirage F1 AG is an area attack weapon. Aeriial MLRS. One pass, covers a 1/2 km grid square.

Jaguar would work in Germany theater, Kola theater, all African theaters, MidEast, Gulf,South Atlantic. It works everywhere.

I suspect that many of DCS users, like real life Jag pilots , would find it underpowered. When Jag gets below power curve, it becomes dangerous and difficult.

Well... I want to say B.S., but I won't. I am sort of thinking they are nonsensical. They dont work. Dept. tables for guns and rockets work fine. But for bombs. Not really, not for me. Low level delivery of retarded bombs. 420 knots, 5-10 deg dive, 150 dpr., or max 200 depr, 700 AGL release. Even with pipper well ahead of target, the bombs impact well short. It makes no sense. I am almost overflying the target, and release when tgt is below bottom of HUD and cant be seem, and weapons stil fall well short. The tracks are too large to upload.
