  1. If it is HB I Don't doubt that they would do different versions. But the F14A/B analogy would be more like a F4J/S. The F4E has a totally different backseat/radar/other systems. The naval thing makes sense since they could leverage "jester" from an AWG9 to AWG10 mode of operation more easily. And then the forrestal.
  2. LOL nice... So pretty much no one knows. Though I bet if its HB doing it its gonna be a naval one first.
  3. This is how its done. NVG's are focused at infinity to look outside. And you don't want to be fubmling with them to try to read instruments while flying.
  4. The main thing is, #1 you can't read any instruments in that case. If you your cockpit lighting is to a level where you can read it with the naked eye i.e. look under the gogs then its too bright for the NVG. At best you might be able to kinda look outside if you put em up to the glass but reflections will screw you. Basically all aviation gogs have sets of filters at specific frequencies of light to block them, and the cockpit instruments are modified to only emit that specific frequency of light. So you can see your instruments and you can see outside.
  5. So, yes what I said. I'm just not up on what the J carried PGM wise if anything. I assume it could use standard unguided stuff.
  6. I'm gonna guess we get an F4J first. If HB is the one doing it, it would leverage the forrestal, and all their backseat AI ported from the F14 would probably fit alot better with the AWG-10 rather than the F4E radar. Plus its vastly more capable as a dogfighter than the 4E due to the better radar/WCS. And IIRC it can still carry bombs.
  7. I think alot of of MP servers want to use this mod, however due to the way DCS handles IC for mods its not really tenable for alot of them, especially PVP servers. I would personally love to see this on several popular cold war servers but its not gonna happen due to the IC issues/potential for abuse. Frankly its a shame. And I really don't blame the Devs since they can't really do anything about it. ED "could" enhance mod support this way, but given what I've seen of the company over the years I very much doubt they will since they wouldn't make a dime on it, and possibly undercut their paid modules.
  8. 100% correct, except not even the mig19 we have really fits, the VPAF used some chinese J-6's which are "close". But its alot closer than any other plane we have. The Bis is a far different beast than an mig21 F-13. But I'm sure if there is VN map, folks will cram every possible "close-enough" airframe onto it.
  9. Yup, and then what would a similar Japanese "task force" look like?
  10. Holy cow that's awesome and terrifying.
  11. I was referring to the info graphic which is clearly not using those sorts of numbers, and if it is we have no idea which ones.
  12. Cool, can you tell us which specific range that cringy graph used?
  13. Yeah its kinda cringy really. Missing any really useful details. I.e. look down, which mode, etc.
  14. Yeah I agree with this assessment. Its prolly coming sometime in Q1 worst case Q2.
  15. From what I have heard the VOIP doesn't work with stuff like LoTac or Overlord, so for many online servers its still gonna be SRS for the time being.
  16. Cool. please soon ... Also is your FLIR model for TGP's gonna model the differences between LWIR / MWIR (and I guess SWIR though thats probably too modern to worry about aside from the harrier TGP)
  17. AFAIK its just visible range not UV, 400-600nm IIRC. Which is mostly Visible light. The primary issue being other "background" contrast (clouds / ground), which is limited by the narrow seeker FOV. TBH I'd just be really happy if your IR missiles didn't track through clouds. Cuz you know they have problems with that right?
  18. Yup blame HB for that
  19. Can you guys fix the Strela1 missile, it was sort-of all aspect, though I'm not sure your actual seeker model can replicate its actual limitations.
  20. Or you could you know. "Git gud"
  21. Digital sound barrier. I like that. Supposedly work on Vulkan is coming along, but slowly. So maybe next year, maybe not. As for a 2080ti vs a 3090, it actually wasn't a huge upgrade frame rate wise. Cuz its mainly the CPU choking on it. My gpu frametimes are usually fine, but CPU frame times can get bad, especially online.
  22. Me too. But I figure Apache early next year. BS3 probably 6 months after that, mig 6 months after that.
