Another AV-8B Preview: VR, DMT, TGP, Vertical Landing


Jabbers_

Recommended Posts

Hi Jabbers,

 

Thank you for your videos they are appreciated.

 

I am creating a MP campaign and one element I have included as a training goal during an OCU mission, is to practice field based landings on a temporary airstrip.

 

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=192006

 

Could you please let me know if the version you have is capable of landing and taxiing on rough ground without becoming bogged down and unable to move on anything other than aircraft pans, taxiways or runways?

 

I am unable to test this myself so your help and assistance would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks. :thumbup:

Cool video! One question about the DMT (CCRP style symbology). Looks like the bomb release happens before the release cue reaches the FPM. Is this normal in AV-8B? :) Perhaps the sound is not in sync in the video?

Its early, but you just press and hold release and it does the work for you, so not something I thought of. We would have to confirm with Razbam if thgat was intended

On a flight to Vegas right now reading the Harrier Pocket Guide and realizing how little I actually know about operating a jet like this...feels like I'm reading a foreign language at times (well, most of the time). A little steeper learning curve than my trusty FC3 F-15C Watching this video helped to remind me of the prize at the end of the maze once I can fight my way through learning everything.

 

Great video, really enjoyed watching it. Thanks for posting.

HI Jabbers,

 

Did you manage to land the Harrier somewhere other than an airport? if so how was the landing?

Question regarding performance (fps). Would you say the Harrier is equal to the Mirage?

- Jack of many DCS modules, master of none.

- Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS.

HI Jabbers,

Thanks Specter

 

I tried a FARP before i figured out how to Vertical Land, it didnt go well but mostly cause I just didn't know what I was doing. I've since landed on a road, and in the middle of no where. In the ME you can set start location to: Air, Ramp, Ramp Hot, Runway, Ground, Ground Hot.

 

Question regarding performance (fps). Would you say the Harrier is equal to the Mirage?

 

Probably slightly worse, but, I couldn't tell you the FPS performance for the mirage when it was early access cause I wasn't playing DCS at that time. This thing has more stuff, its more on par with the A-10 avionics-wise, so I would expect it to be slightly worse.

Aight, thx. The Mirage is pretty good on performance, so wouldnt be alarming :)

Now that is some good news here!

Hopefully we´ll be also able to Refuel/ Rearm outside Airfields.

I saw when you were using the DMT for bombing you have to keep the target visible in your hud all the time, is it not possible for the harrier to do level CCRP bombing or that will only be done with the TGP and GBU bombs?

 

You can do level CCRP, but my understanding is that the HUD symbology is not finished, so as it stands right now its really hard to hit your mark because of this. I plan on doing some more testing tonight in this area, if I find anything of interest Ill try to make another video.

*waves hand in front of Jabbers face* You will post more videos on the harrier....

 

(Sigh the force does not work on Hutts)

 

Getting my geek on.

 

Lol, I'm hoping to, just need to figure out good topics that are doable with early access.

Dear Jabbers; Could you give some info (maybe with a video) about autopilot system of Harrier, if you have spare time?

 

Thanks a lot.
