renhanxue Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Thank you! I'm glad other people appreciate the aircraft and its intricacies as much as I do :)
Manuel_108 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I really do. It's such an interesting aircraft.
Pocket Sized Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 The hardest thing to grasp about the HUD is that, in most of the footage we've seen, the pitch ladder isn't slaved to the velocity vector but to the waypoint. Those vertical lines show if you're above/below the desired altitude for the current flight conditions/waypoint. I'm wondering what the HUD will look like whilst flying without a waypoint selected (AKA non-combat flying, what I do 99% of the time) DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule. In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works.
jeffdude Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Thank you! I'm glad other people appreciate the aircraft and its intricacies as much as I do :) It seems to have so many neat features that I didn't know about! The targeting computer sounds complex, yet practical for the mission. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Snail Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 I’m very interested in the Viggen since, let’s say, the year 2000 or so but I’m still learning a lot here lately thanks to several expert members on this board. A big ‘hats off’! Tack :-) How (s)low can you go
Pocket Sized Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Does anyone know how much pitch trim is required throughout the airspeed envelope (minus transonic trim changes) on a scale of F-15 to Su-27? DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule. In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works.
RAZBAM_ELMO Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Hopefully someone gets an english cockpit mod out as soon as they can after release. Know and use all the capabilities in your airplane. If you don't, sooner or later, some guy who does use them all will kick your ass. — Dave 'Preacher' Pace, USN.
Agremont Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Hopefully someone gets an english cockpit mod out as soon as they can after release. No need. It's going to be included.
AdurianJ Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 No need. It's going to be included. No everyone should be forced to learn Swedish ! Like all normal people do ! :D :D
Agremont Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Btw, I noticed a couple of "Ö"s missing their dots in the cockpit. Like the Höjd autopilot indicator at the top of the front panel and the emergency weapons jettison button on the weapon panel.

Einherjer Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 DCS: AJS-37 Viggen Discussion The beautiful cockpit looks so extremely dark?!
Fri13 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Pre-purchased the Viggen in first hour, even when I needed to spend 30min to rationalize the addition to virtual hangar by aircraft capabilities. I am little sad that I finally purchased the L-39 (cheap one really, why not big deal) as after all the hype etc isn't so nice to fly, and we're little worried about same case for Viggen. But reading about the jamming and CM pods etc and finally seeing the ground radar operation, it started to sound a great addition. Now I can't wait the date to be able fly it and start roadstrip missions like I did first time I got Mig-21Bis (as well designed for road landings and take-off) to do anti-ship operations. I really liked long time ago to do anti-ship with Su-25A and T and the range was fairly problematic when you got saturated with missiles, now that to be changed! One thing needed to do now on first tests is to see can a Su-27 intercept a Viggen anti-ship missiles like it can do for HARPOON missile and shoot it down with R-27ET. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.
Ice_Cougar Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Almost done reading the manual and got super excited for the BK-90, when I noticed that we finally got our sneak-peek of it on the LNS Facebook page. :D Anyone else notice? Under the wings!? :smilewink:
Ice_Cougar Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) Also, isn't the green maverick an RB-75T? They're either a placeholder for the 75T in the form of AGM-65D (which I doubt), or they're the RB-75T! :D I think its the 75T...The paint trim is definitely different from an AGM-65D Edited January 4, 2017 by Ice_Cougar
amalahama Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Hi, Can we assume TILS will be compatible with current ILS beacons already in-game? and each channel freq can be configured via ME? Regads
Ice_Cougar Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Hi, Can we assume TILS will be compatible with current ILS beacons already in-game? and each channel freq can be configured via ME? Regads Perhaps the TILS system will be enabled by spawning a special vehicle or structure using the ME at an airfield (an option to spawn all of these at every airfield automatically would probably be in order. But this would allow any good mission-designer to make any road that he/she sees fit to be an airfield...an airfield! Structures like FOBs and road-side hangars could become place-able structures and some really cool re-arming scenarios could be generated too! Either that or they just make the system compatible with the default airfields :P

Since Green was the Swedish Color Code for Inert Weapons so i dont see why they would change this with having the RB 75T in Green =P. To my knowledge the RB 75T would be Visually identical to the normal RB 75 (So AGM-65A) it uses the same body / Sensor the only difference is in the warhead. Edited January 5, 2017 by mattebubben

Either that or they just make the system compatible with the default airfields :P If LNS are going for accurate system simulation we'd have to get some kind of deployable landing system for the mission editor (after all, that's how the system was used IRL). The Ku-band pulse coded TILS signals are nothing like regular ILS, and are completely incompatible. If LNS are willing to sacrifice some accuracy for playability (as with the support for AGM-65Bs), it would be nice to be able to set up the TILS channels for regular ILS/PRMG frequencies as well.

drPhibes Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Sweden never used the B-Mav., but Cobra has stated that "our" Viggen can carry/use it.
IonicRipper Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Isint it the RB75? Which is the same as the AGM65B? i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
mattebubben Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 (edited) Isint it the RB75? Which is the same as the AGM65B? the RB 75 is the Swedish Designation for the AGM-65A. With the RB 75T being a AGM-65A with a heavy blast-fragmentation warhead like some of the Later AGM-65 Variants. Sweden never acquired the AGM-65B but Leatherneck have said they are gonna add it as well since it would be useable by the AJS 37 (as it was compatible with any aircraft capable of using the AGM-65A) and it has a Zoom function that will make it easier to use compared to the RB 75s with their Zoomed out Seekers. (that make the RB 75 / 75T harder to use for target acquisition etc then they would have been IRL due to ingame limitations concerning resolution etc). Edited January 5, 2017 by mattebubben
IonicRipper Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 So if I understand this correctly they are using ED's AGM65B instead of designing their own Rb 75? i5 4590 @ 3.77GHz | GTX 1060 6GB | 16GB 1600MHz DDR3 | 1TB HDD+500GB HDD | Win10 Home X64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
