C3 injection is Erhöhte Notleistung. I thought only the F8's got C3?

Wasn't the Dora just a stopgap until the Ta-152 was in production?

The FW-190A-8 had GM1, C-3, or neither, Depending on the variant of A-8.

It takes less than a minute to start the MiG-19. It's the easiest plane to start in DCS that isn't an FC3 plane.

I stand schooled and reprimanded.

I'll call your bluff. Show me your proof/evedence that the aircraft of the 9th AF never used 150 octane fuel and were relegated to interdiction/ground attack. Please educate us.

I'd like to know where you got that "fact." I can prove the 358th Fighter Group of the 9th Air Force provided bomber escort to the 8th Air Force as their primary role. The 356th Fighter Squadron was part of the 358th Fighter Group of the 9th Air Force. The only pilot to receive the Medal of Honour in the European Theater was Major James Howard of the 356th Fighter Squadron, protecting the 401st Bomb Group of the 8th Air Force.

And that's not that simple. Many fighter groups from the 9th AF were used as fighter escort for the 8th AF over Germany throughout and up until the end of the war.

How many A-10C II's flew over the Caucasus? My guess is that's going to be none. We are limited by what maps we have and the aircraft we have. How many P-51D-25/30's or P-47D-30/40's saw action during the short window of June-July 44? Judging by production and serial numbers, my guess is going to be none. So you can just create missions with the Spitfire LF Mk. IX and the rest are A.I.

The FM of the 51 and 47 don't take into account the higher octane fuel they actually used? I find that hard to believe.

Looking at the serial numbers for the variants of the 51 and 47 we have in game, I'm willing to bet that they didn't get to Europe until close to December. Which means the 109K-4 saw action before the P-47D-30/40 and P-51D-25/30 event got to their respective squadrons.

Don't include the Spit in your missions and your problem is solved. The P-47D-30 and P-47D-40 in DCS in the pinnacle of what saw action in Europe. I don't count the P-47M because it saw limited action in the last month of the war an in a primarily ground attack roll and the P-47N only saw action in the Pacific. The P-51D-25 and P-51D-30 are the pinnacle of what saw action is Europe. The P-51K is a P-51D with a different propeller. All entered combat at relatively the same time in 1944. Less than 4 months later, the BF-109K-4 and the FW-190D-9 started to see action. From October 1944 until the end of the war, the 4 aircraft above saw action against each other, respectively. The Spitfire LF Mk. IX is an ancient relic by comparison. The solution is to add a Spitfire Mk.XIV.

The P-47D-30 and D-40 we have in game first saw action in mid 1944. The Spitfire LF Mk. IX we have in game first saw action in early 1943. The P-51D-25-NA and 30-NA we have in game didn't see action until mid 1944. The BF-109K-4 we have in game didn't see action until October 1944. The outlier is the early Spitfire. At altitude, the P-47 in game is superior to the BF-109 and the P-51 is at least a match.

Do you disable WEP on the P-51? Do you disable water injection in the P-47?

I can't think of a module in the last few years that hasn't been released to early access first.

Pre-order ends right before release to early access. For the recent modules (Falcon and Hind), it was less that 3 months. Hind pre-order started on 26 March. Released to Early access on 18 June.

The AGM-65 E2/L has an enhanced laser seeker and new software that reduces the risk of collateral damage and enables aircraft to use onboard, buddy- and ground-based lasing to designate targets. Earlier versions of the missile only enabled buddy- and ground-based laser designation. https://raytheon.mediaroom.com/index.php?item=1886

Just watched that video. That process is much easier. THX

You are missing something. Use the TPOD to select and laz the target. On the EHSD, press MK0 Laz the next target. On the EHSD, press MK1 Laz the next target. On the EHSD, press MK2 Laz the next target. On the EHSD, press MK3 ETC Press waypoint increment long. On the the EHSD, designate MK0. When in range, pickle. Press waypoint increment short to select the next mark point, pickle. And so on.

I prefer his delivery over someone who is over-animated. Reminds me of my history professor.

There is a sticky post from yesterday. "Discussion and announcement for the collaboration between True Grit and Heatblur Simulations"

**Update** Below 1000 feet I had trouble getting the seeker head to see the laser.

Have to say that I prefer the MAV L to the F. Launching from 10 miles out at least. They kind of loft, it's pretty cool. No problems tracking or picking up my laser.

Hold down the MAP OSB button for about 5 seconds and it stays off.

Not sure. Maybe that's how it's supposed to be.
