Yeah, the minimum i would expect is to see other friendly contacts and bogeys detected by an awacs or GCI radars. It would increase survivability so much in a contested air space...
As far ive played with both against human players they are comparable. The sd10 will be the fastest missile inside 15 mn but the 120c will be the one with a range advantage at high altitude long ranges (over 30nm).
But none of them is superior enough over the other so the better pilot wins (as always btw...)

If thats the case its absolutely strange and poorly implemented cause it fogs immediately when you roll or turn your aircrafts, always the side contrary to the sun.

After today's patch (maybe it was existing before) under certain sun conditions the canopy gets so white that you cannot see anything at all.
Track attached. white canopy bug bug.trk
There is a rare bug in the hornet where azimuth and bars get inverted and stays in that state, it hapoens after messing aroung with acm modes and gun modes. It sounds it might be the same thing you might be seeing.

Yeah they only thing i hate above the a10c is how vulnerable and slow you are in a contested environment (no air superiority). Doing cas in a f18 or f16 gives you so much other options to run away or defend yourself. Definetely looking forward to marking targets through the jhmcs.

Make sure the crosshair in the hmcs is caged to the center (cross with a square). This way the centering works ok, except that for me sometimes the tgp drifts away by itself.

Yeah it works, in any case you will find the commands under "view cockpit" section, there you can change default binds.
Also make sure you look for "save cockpit angle" button so the view stays as desired after recentering.

You must have amazing reading between the lines skills in your daily life if you understood the new hotas function from that patch notes... :/

Thanks Scrape.
That was an interesting read that clarifies where US F16 sits at.
Do you know of any F16 in other air forces that has made the necessary changes to support smart weapons on stations 4&6? Maybe the IAF ones?
I just want to know this because if the answer is no, then there is no point in place for those like myself who thinks that if a certain Air force use that config, it should be permitted as a wink to those people who want to simulate a custom air force configuration (given that we only have one model simulated in DCS)
dont know if its me and the placebo effect but i noticed the a10 more nimble after this patch.
Its also true that i did not load it like a bomb truck, just 2 mavericks, 2 GBU38s, sidewinders and the TPOD
To be fair that logic is flawed. Soldiers and special forces train in knife fighting but its not because they expect their rifles to break. Its just because not all fights start where you'd like them to.

In any case, under good launch paramenter, like angels 30 and above and speed close to Mach 1, you will fin that you are able to lauch JDAMs just outside of SA11 maximum range, which is quite impressive standoff distance.
