The HDD, at least in SU33, can also have HUD symbiology in it:

^^As I said, there are SU33 Youtube videos showing the closeup of the radar screen and the bars are not there. Either that or perhaps the video quality may have made them look like they're not there..but as all the other HDD symbiology could be clearly seen, I doubt that's the case. Also, Alfa mentioned this once and I believe it was for a reason. Well, you know what, show me the proof that they are there indeed and that's it. ;)

Question for Wags or anyone at ED - russian jets radar "bars" Hey guys! Aren't these not supposed to exist in the real thing? I'm referring to the horizontal and vertical bars in the radar screen? I saw some SU33 youtube videos and they weren't there and I think even Alfa mentioned this once. If that's the case, why not remove them in FC3 as well? :) Thanks.

Any info regarding the incident, internet article or something? Sounds like a fun read. :D

To be honest, I'm looking forward mostly to SU27SM...I always loved russian birds and SUs one of them.

If they were flying around with nuclear warheads kinda is a big deal.:D

Me too..the first Lockon squad for me. Been there for years. It was handsdown one of the most competetive and perhaps one of the best squads in the history of Lockon MP.

^^On Wags! :D

+1

15G? The only reason he could pull so many Gs is the probably simplified flight model..If this was AFM his plane would have broken apart and the pilot would be dead.

Well, I hope you're right..othervise, it wouldn't feel right to hit anything with R27 in DCS World.. :D

Actually, the landings are 90% the same as in FC2 - hardly realistic at all. The only difference is the added slight delay when the plane will level itself upon touchdown: not immediatelly like in FC2 but with a 1 second or so delay. It's a cosmetic thing. The landings are scripted as they were before.

Yes it is. I'll say it again: R27 sucked in real life -combat-. Now, we can argue the parameters, how, what, when, under what condititions etc..And indeed, if those missiles were launched from too far away. As I said, if monkeys were flying those planes, totally ignorant of how the weapon system works then ok..let's just dismiss the whole EE conflict. But, those were trained professional pilots (at least on one of the sides if reports are to be believed) and they, presumably, knew what they were doing. It would be curious if the missile was so badly managed during the conflict, but..everything is possible.

I would never fly a Cessna like that, no matter how good I was in the simulator..I'd rather take some flying lessons with the instructor..Too many things can go wrong IRL and it's pretty risky to just handle someone controls and let him/her fly the plane..This guy did it but..not sure it's the norm..

Let's be honest. R27 sucked IRL combat..That's a fact. Lot's of them launched in EE conflict, lots of misses..Unless monkeys were flying those jets having no idea how to employ the weapon..I think it's safe to say, the missile failed.

^^Hey Neo, I see you're from Croatia. :) You're welcome to join my squad and we'll be more then happy to show you all you need to know in order to fly FC3. ;)

I and 5 other brave people voted YES!

For reasons that remain "unknown"? Whos bright idea was to give PTSD suffering persons firearms and have them shoot at the range? Seriously? I'm all for gun ownership for self-protection but that was a terrible mistake IMO.

If I understand correctly, the range "bars" in HDD aren't supposed to be there and there's only approximated range displayed on the upper left of the hud. For example, if in "32 range" HDD mod, on the HUD it will display "25", if in "16 range" HDD mod, the HUD will display "10". However, there's no exact range counter. Is this supposed to be like this IRL as well and if yes, why? How would Mig and Su pilots tell the exact range, would they solely rely on GCI or Awacs? Seems kinda strange..

^^Was that a Google translation or you simply switched to greek? :D

I don't know..since this is not modelled in FC3, I don't think it exists IRL. :D

Assuming it's not a bug and it's modelled like that on purpose..perhaps it's a safety measure for evading friendly fire/targets?

Ooohh...they're all so sweet when they're little and chubby...

50m margin is about right. Rockets aren't precision weapons rather a "wast area bombardment" type.

Here's a TM Warthog profile for F15C created by my squadmate (free registration required in order to download the file): http://www.mrcine.org/boards/files/file/35-f15-hotas/ P.S. It's a FC3 update, don't mind what it says in the description. ;)
