To be clear, the only incorrect statement is regarding the SCS direction as listed above.

Post a video of it happening in a recent build, a lot of behavior has changed since then.

Nope, EOM is actually different.What would the practical difference even be here vs pre-briefed using HRM pullup selection. The mechanization is already there to send it at a steerpoint and HRM pullup will let it off at any angle inside of the DLZ.
I feel like this may be just switchology and terms being changed at some point, either before or after and ED just used the documentation they could find.
It is a TOO 'RANGE KNOWN' function.
LAR is 0 to +/- 135
Not available in PB. (Correction it seemed it was in 2002, but with a note that it ended with 163XXX, so it was a function on some that was removed later, TOO EOM stayed.)
This relies on us having TOO range functions first...

I certainly have it, passive ranging for the -73 and ATLFLIR is known due to data block for each. I'll see about making a report/request here.If there is documentation to support that it has the function. It doesn't get added just because something else has it.

Yes this is a bug in that we can’t change the chart type individually from the scale. You can decenter the map to get a larger scale for a lower level chart.

Combination of trigonometry, the DTED, and the radar if in the radar FOV. In DCS you can see that the radar is contibuting by RADAR or AGR on the HUD.

That’s why you use the AZ/EL, you can see how everything is stacked.

The real Hornet heavily utilizes the AZ/EL and additional MSI properties. You're supposed to be able to just step through the MSI tracks regardless of whether your radar sees them at that moment or not. Additionally, the TDC on the SA should be "magnetized" and snap to any track or point making this whole thing a lot easier.I wonder if this is really the case in the real F18C and what the reasons for this are. Or whether there could be a menu item so that Alt is always displayed on the SA.
This is basically one of the biggest disruptive factors in the F18 for me. In the F16, I have an immediate overview of the situation from 30 contacts on the SA page. In the F18 I have to click on everything or step through, hell that's an enormous amount of work and time waste .

By pressing STEP in the SA page, you cycle through the SA contacts and the altitude and speed can be continuously displayed. Only one contact at the time can be selected though.
That’s the same as using the TDC, it’s the same cursor.

How were you testing this?

if you punch in the wrong digits it will show an error and reject it
Got it, thanks! That’s a step in the right direction.

What does that IFF rejection line mean for the Hornet? As I understand there is no mode/code simulation so rejection wouldn’t be possible anyway.
Also the EXP slew line needs some more context it seems.

There are a few odd lines in the changes today, but what on Earth does “Wrong IFF code rejection behavior” mean?
As I understand no CIT/IFF modes/codes are modeled for any Eagle Dynamics aircraft, did that just change?

No, in the Hornet you use the AZ/EL as a visual representation of the altitude stack and radar elevation.

Looks like part of the ghost velocity vector as the VV is caged to the center of the HUD.

What was the altitude difference?
Sent from my moto g stylus 5G (2022) using Tapatalk -
Realistically that would shear the PTS as you are keeping the clutch engaged3-position switch should be OK. I don't have one available but I tested by just holding the L or R pushbutton down.
However, you should remember to set the switch to OFF position when the engines are up and running. Else, the crank switch in the cockpit will stay in the L position forever. This might not do any harm as the cranking is done with bleed air from the APU, and the APU shuts down when the engines are operational; but it certainly doesn't look right.

Some thing you can do is decenter the map on either HSI or SA and that will double the scale looking infront of you.

Do you have a video to share? There are multiple flight conditions where the speed brake will retract automatically unless you are continuously holding the switch out.

Are you testing this after the APU is powered up?

agreed. i would of thought this would make sense as an AI asset, or maybe even a Flaming cliffs level aircraft, But a full fidelity? I dont think ED has access to Dash 1 and Dash 34 documentation for a block 2b.
They may, there's a possibility there is a real military contract for this like the A-10, and we'll get the redacted version. If they have a manual or two, then there's no reason this would be any less fidelity than the Hornet in it's current state.

So, will the DCS F-35 be able to switch the radar off and go hunting MIGs?
Of course, but you don't need to turn off the radar with an AESA, the vast majority of RWRs won't see it.

Yeah I just flew around for a bit and certainly had no problem keeping perfect on-speed AoA (solid donut) until banking past 30 degrees. Sure if you want it perfect give it a single tap nose up, then back down once you roll outside, but it should certainly be well within the E-backet at all times.Yes. But your FPM will not be in the E-bracket anymore during the turn. Try it!
EDIT: Let me rephrase that: your FPM is not perfectly centered in the E-bracket, if that‘s what you did on downwind.

Could you post a video with the control indicator enabled?I noticed tonight flying Banklers mission that I was marked down for being fast as I turned from abeam. I was perfectly trimmed for on speed on the downwind, but in the turn, your speed increases and it’s almost impossible to keep on speed and maintain the correct parameters of descent rate, AOB and position. As you roll out on the groove and come back to around 140kts, it’s all good.
I was wondering if you should trim for on speed around the turn, ( have not tried doing this, but would anticipate it would make it difficult to be correctly trimmed on roll out for the groove, as time would be limited ) rather than just accept you will not be on speed round the turn. Surely it’s the groove that matters, not the turn to it?

It said he was fast, which is how you refer to AoA below on-speed.What matters is AoA. If a mission is 'marking you down' for speed, rather than AoA, it is wrong.

Is MSI implemented on the F-18?
