Hmmm, I'm doubtful of that. For a start our Anton is the dog of the Anton family, the A8 is the fat overweight version of the 190 family when the focus had moved away from being a pure fighter. In a sim I'd rather be in a A3 or A4 than a A8 where things like armour are less relevant! The Hellcats turn performance is very different. If anything the Corsair was probably more similar in that respect to the 190 than the Hellcat irl, although still quite different.

Since most people won't have the discipline to fly the Hellcat and particularly the Corsair to use those planes advantages over the Zero, the Zero is going to spank a lot of blue DCS flyers and the forums will be littered by the whining.... Also, depending on what model of Zero, and yes their are many variants, its performance isn't underwhelming.

Two weeks joke goes back to the original il2 and oleg maddox.....

I Enjoyed sight seeing around Berlin!

This.

Can confirm this, I can no longer bring up the George menus from the front seat, rear works fine.

I'm hoping for the Cobra..... Unpopular opinion probably, but would like a Whiskey...

Horses for course, whenever I read posts like this I feel so grateful that I only play DCS with other people, because I find flying single player and not working together with other people completely boring.....

If you thought that full fidelity planes were 100% realistic before this announcement, then I've got some bad news for you.... DCS is the best game there is at simulating these planes, closer to reality than anything else out there (by some margin), but its no where close to 100% reality. There's still loads that they can't put in 100% accurately even if they had every bit of information because of things like jail. Nothing has changed with the announcement of fat amy.

There, edited it so his figure is accurate.

My god, so many whingers in here. Really looking forward to the F-15C, both that and Fat Amy really were a surprise, didn't see either coming, especially the latter.

Pfffft, I'd rather have a

The TGP will automatically slave to the location of the emitter selected by the HAD once they go active. The better the PGM quality the closer to the exact location. A PGM of 1 it will be almost right on top of it, with PGM 2 it will be close enough that you can find it pretty easily. I made this vid ages ago showing this, of course they have to be active for this to work. As far as I know, if the emitter is not active the HAD will be of no use finding the SAM.

If we're going to go for wild speculation, I just drove past a static Jaguar, Buccaneer and E.E Lightning not 30 minutes ago (Manston Airfield). Coincidence, I think not.........

As I said, each to their own. I haven't flown on it for years, probably since Syria came out, and even if it had an update wouldn't go back to it with the maps we have available now.

God knows? Personally think it would be a complete waste of effort, but each to there own.

Its TMS down twice (A HOTAS shortcut to CZ) if your have created a track in the TGP. First press comes out of point/area track to IN, second press CZ's, if no track, just one press and yes it works, has done for years. As soon as you start slewing off a steerpoint with either the HUD or TGP you will have to CZ to get rid of that offset you have just created to your steerpoints.

I've never had a problem once getting hooked up, using a combination of the deck crew guiding me in and my own eyes.

Simply being lazy and not having to use a calculator to covert to LLDec. As I said its no problem, I was sort of hoping it might be something that was easy to change, but if not, what you have done already is above and beyond and perfect for what we hoped for

Hi @cfrag, just wanted to echo what Friar said, and thank you very much for taking the time to accommodate our wishes on this, this opens up some fantastic scenarios we have in mind I have one question for you regarding the output format of the coordinates, in your test mission currently they are set at lat long precise, as shown in the following screenshot (actually lat long extremely precise!!!), the Coordinates box of the various formats DCS produces via the F10 map were set via left alt/left mouse button right over the BTR. Is this something it is possible for us to change by editing something somewhere to a different format ie lat long decimal? If not its no problem as its a simple calculation to make, once again, thank you for your efforts on this one

Yes, coordinates of the target Regarding the format, possibly lat long decimal might be best, as kiowa and Apache can use that to, along with jets which often can't use MGRS, but MGRS is fine if easier. It's easy to convert lat long decimal into lat long precise or standard, MGRS into those formats without your aircraft doing it, not so much! Thanks for looking into it, much appreciated

Hi @cfrag, question for you, is it possible for the Jtac to give a coordinate in his lasing report rather than a range and bearing, or is this something that is not possible?

Hi @cfrag, just wanted to say a thank you for all your work, as a main beneficiary of yours and @DD_Friar creations, using your work. Often (as with the recent jtac questions) Friars questions are a result of me saying, do you think we could add.......

Is this thread a poor joke?

I would love to see a Hellcat dogfighting an AI zero over a Essex class carrier on the WWII Marianas map......
