Furiz's post in TGP Fall line way to the left of designated point track target. was marked as the answer
In your track you did not wait for alignment to complete (it needs to get to 8.0 and RDY has to be flashing, ALIGN on the HUD has to be flashing) you turned the INS knob to NAV too soon.
I took control of your track and aligned just fine, TGP works as it should.

Furiz's post in Fpm is no longer there and few other things was marked as the answer
@razorsealDo the INS alignment properly.
If you don't do it, the plane has no idea where it is in time and space.

Furiz's post in Bombs clipping through (Syria-) terrain and exploding below the ground (MT) was marked as the answer
Hi,
First, you reported a bug on F-16 Bugs Section forum for CBU-97(which is a bomb), clipping through ground in Syria (which is a terrain) 😄
Then you set 100FT for Burst Altitude, don't know if you are familiar with what that means. So Height of Function (HoF), which determines at which height the bomblets will release. It impacts area spread and accuracy.
So the higher alt they burst from the more are they will cover. BA is best to leave as it is set by default.
If set to burst from 100FT I don't know if they manage to open their parachutes even. I suggest reading on the ED F-16C manual or F-16C Chuck's Guide.
TBH did not use them recently but Ill try it out next time I'm in game.

Furiz's post in AOA indicator with Weight on Wheels showing wrong? was marked as the answer
This one is from the Desert Storm, same as we have AOA represented now. Older block I guess.

Furiz's post in Autopilot not working and another issue with "fuel" flashing on the HUD was marked as the answer
Hi,
Check if your TRIM/AP DISC Switch (Manual Trim Panel on the left side) is set to Norm, if it is set to DISC the Auto Pilot will disconnect since your Trim control is disconnected.
also check if you have some of the switches bound to it and they are making it go to DISC.
That is the usual suspect.

Furiz's post in ELI5: M and F-pole was marked as the answer
@Skyracer
Its complicated but the way I get it is that there are 3 phases the AIM120 has,
MID phase - from launch to acquisition phase, datalink guidance.
Acquisition Phase - has two phases:
A-Pole is the range from your aircraft to the target when the missile goes Husky. - HPRF or High Pule Repetition Frequency or Husky.
M-Pole is same as the A-Pole, is the range from your aircraft to the target when the missile goes Pitbull. - MPRF or Medium Pulse Repetition Frequency
Final Phase - When the missile is in pitbull mode or husky, MPRF or HPRF, and F pole is the range from your aircraft to the target when the missile hits that target.
So basically, you will first see lets say 10M on the left side on your DLZ, before you fire the missile, that means that your Aircraft will be at 10 miles from the target once target goes into MPRF or Pitbull. Below the DLZ youll see A17 for example, thats the time till your missile goes HPRF active.
Whe you launch the missile your 10M will move below the DLZ and on the right you will see 8M and thats for next missile on your rail. Below the DLZ there will be 10M which wont change, and A17 that will count down to 0 and that's when the missile goes HUSKY or Pitbull,
When that happens the symbology will change again,
Below the DLZ youll see 8F thats the F-pole and it means that youll be 8 miles from the target when the missile hits, you'll see, below F-Pole, T15 which is the time till impact. at this point you can lose the lock since missile is guiding to the target on its own.
That's how I understand it.

Furiz's post in Slaving TGP to SPI of Wingman was marked as the answer
Usual command is TMS Down, while TGP screen is selected as SOI. You can press CZ or Cursor Zero on the display. Those commands will center TGP to look at the SPI.
-
Furiz's post in TGP advice on keep losing location was marked as the answer
As the above poster said, press SP on the TGP display to set it to boresight, or you can TMS DOWN once or twice (target management switch) to return it to Steerpoint or press CZ (Cursor Zero) on the display.
-
Furiz's post in How to lock TGP onto steer point ? was marked as the answer
It should be on the STP but if it is not press TMS (target management switch) Down once or twice, it will go to that steerpoint,
also make sure your steerpoint is on ground level, if default altitude it will be up in the air, so type 0 at altitude setting in mission editor and it will be placed on the ground.

Furiz's post in Ground Radar, Setting Mark Points was marked as the answer
Hi,
all that is possible, there are few videos on that, I suggest you watch them.
-
Furiz's post in Mark point was marked as the answer
Try left ALT+Y that will cycle through coordinate systems till you get to degrees, minutes, decimal minutes
- example 32.23.342N - 32.43.543E
when entering these into your viper you have to add 0 before entering East coordinates.

Yes, whole input capabilities didn't make it in to the current patch, work in progress, should be there soon tho.

Furiz's post in Waypoint selection. was marked as the answer
There has been some changes with introduction of MGRS conversion system, now you have to dobber down to select the MAN sequencing and then M-SEL key on the ICP to switch to AUTO sequencing.

Furiz's post in TGP totally black or white in BHOT and WHOT mode was marked as the answer
Ok water is warmer than the air during the night, cause water retains temp while air changes drastically that is true,
but we are not showing air temp here we are showing land temp and water temp and object temp, vehicles, buildings etc, air temp is not shown on flir afaik.
You are not getting my point, the brightness intensity is too high,
water on WHOT shouldn't be shown that bright, it is warmer than land at night but not that warm to be shown as bright as it is now, cause it is from 16°celsius to 32° celsius approximately, it is not boiling at 150°celsius so its bright white.
On Bhot the water is pitch black, again 16° to 32° approx celsius, shouldn't be that black, the land is bright white, the land is at about 18° to 30°celsius, it looks like it is at 150° celsius.
water temp is hotter than land during night and cooler than land during daytime, by a few degrees, just cause water retain temp longer than land, land heats up during a sunny day and cools down during night more frequently,
Don't tell me that BHOT image with the focus on that tank from my track is ok, cause by all logic of this world it is not. No airforce would pay millions for a contract to buy a tpod that performs like that.
Check this Video, how a flir image should look like people, trees, land and water
it is not a tpod we have on the viper but it is flir image
see the difference in temperature between land and water, and people, vehicles etc...
