  1. ED is simulating Weakest Pilot, Lack of G training and Fly without proper G-suit...
  2. After playing in JUSTDOGFIGHT server for all day, and check really good pilot playing F18 and F16 and then look at Tacview after that. compared F18 with F16 at speed 100 - 500 knots, at any same speed F18 turn rate and radius is better then F16, if F18 not do really bad mistake, F16 have no chance. Dont know about IRL but in DCS F18 do better all around high and low speed.
  3. F-16 is designed to do 9G turn fight but you cant do it in DCS, except you turn off G effect. so you need to turn it off to do proper dogfight with F-16
  4. if pilot is at same skill, F-16(DCS) will always lose. that why you not see good pilot use F-16 in DCS dogfight competition events.
  5. Last open beta build, F15 HUD and Radar display not brightness as it used to be. even at max brightness sill Hard to read when flying in bright sky. How to solve it ?
  6. At this state of DCS F-16 I feel like they are simulating a YF-16 Prototype barebone, lack of function and buggy. And you are not USAF Pilot ,but Lockheed Martin Test Pilot ... Development process been so slow and freeze now.
  7. ED could be wrong. they was wrong with DGFT Alttitude Awareness Arc not included in this block 50. new nadir/zenith, bendy dive pitch bar, ghost horizon, extended horizon bar, all come together with same software upgrade SCU-2 1993 (after block 50 1990) and i think block 50 got this upgrade too (DCS simulating all except nadir/zenith) i don't have USAF -34, is it refer to DGFT arc, bendy dive pitch bar, ghost horizon, extended horizon bar ? i doubt if that -34 cover all software upgrade change (MLU, SCU). if they was really removed only nadir/zenith from block 50 only reason i can think of, is almost all test pilots not prefer and rarely use it, as they complained in that report.
  8. Can you PM me which -34 you referance to ?
  9. this is hilarious I never mention about USAF block 50 -34. I was talk about block 40 have it. And you told me , to tell where it is in your USAF -34. How can I do that. If you not give me that USAF -34 lol.
  10. But you told me you have proper referance, USAF -34 circa 2007 that not show this symbol in it. Why not you pm me ?
  11. that what I told you, if you have USAF series of F16 -34 , you can PM me. We can’t discuss if we don’t have the same referance.
  12. You can see nadir/zenith (and ghost horizon line) presented and in-use in many F16 HUD video on youtube. And how can I find USAF series for F16 block 50 manual -34 , Can you Pm me the link ? All I can find is HAF series manual -34. and that not What ED told us they working on.
  13. that symbols are from F-16C block 40, don't know if it still exits in block 50. here is the report about "testing new HUD symbols for F-16C" (block 40) the report is "APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE",so i think it not violate ED's forum rule. https://apps.dtic.mil/docs/citations/ADA260280 https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a260280.pdf btw, almost all test pilots not prefer that new NADIR and ZENITH symbol. :megalol:
  14. gun zone is for fun and Chaotic not a good place for serious training. there are already have 1v1 slot, you can choose who/plane you want to dogfight with or serious training. problem solved!
  15. About *LGB time to impact*, i'm not sure maybe *time to release* change to display *time to impact* after bomb released. but TGP can predict impact time and auto-laser, with adjustable seconds before impact. (not yet in DCS)

    BIT

    the missing BIT i want to see is FLCS BIT that ACTUALLY move Flight control surfaces.
  17. Confusing word on switch maybe inherit form F16 very old BLOCK, But both switch (FUSELAGE, FORM knob) is independent. you can turn ON only *FORM knob* fuselage's TOP BOTTOM formation lights or turn ON/DIM only *FUSELAGE switch* tail's light (FORMATION,FLOOD or whatever they called) or turn ON both fuselage and tail lights
  18. *FUSELAGE switch* is dedicated to control brightness (BRT/OFF/DIM) of Flood lights (white) at base of vertical tail. *FORM knob* is dedicated to control brightness of Top and Bottom Formation light (white). i doubt if *FORM knob* can also control Vertical tail's Flood lights brightness too ? it's not make sense, because both already have separated controller for it and independent.
  19. Patch size is 4.6 GB, Download speed 400 KB/s :cry: why this patch is so big ???
  20. F-16 block 50 is circa 1990. but IIRC ED says they simulate F-16 block 50 CCIP circa 2007, Tape M4.2 so this HUD should be included.
  21. This DGFT HUD Attitude Awareness symbol come with MLU Tape M2 ,circa 2000. i wish ED will simulate this too.
  22. EXT lighting working as describe in -1 ANTI = control only top of vertical tail strobe light. FUSELAGE = control only white floodlights at base of vertical tail. WING/TAIL = control all others white red green lights. FORM knob = varies white lights (if WING/TAIL is OFF varies red green lights too)
  23. Does upcoming Viper's Wing Flex have any effect to FM behavior ? (e.g. accelerate, speed, turn-rate, G ...) ? or it's just visual, eye candy ?
  24. With last patch we got “chaff/flare” voice message to working, thank you!. can we expect “LOCK” voice message to come in next patch ? It’s very handy while dogfighting.
  25. You’re experiencing those two bugs. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=253449 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=253414
