JHMCS, in our hornet? And general info


Rhinozherous

Recommended Posts

Hello!

I searched a bit around the internet about the "Joint Helmet

-Mounted Cueing System".

 

First, do we have it, or get it in the future in our hornet?

 

As far as I found out, it works as a "HUD inside helmet visor"... Did I get it right? Anyone with info material about this tech or is it too much top secret?

 

Thanks!

Rhino - in answering your 1st question, In the "real" world JHMCS works along very similar lines to the VR headsets/ TrackIR in the PC world. In the Hornet cockpit, on the left rear of the canopy is a mounting (about the size of a GoPro camera) that is effectively using (magnetic I think) measurements of the pilots helmet to measure alignment. Inside the visor is projected the data similar to the heads Up Display.

From my understanding it'll just be visible in one eye right?

It should work with VR and I assume it will be on Beta this Wednesday (or Friday) since this is the last Wednesday for Beta updates. The 31st should be Live's update if they are still on the recent schedule.

 

Source? I know Wags has said by the end of month, but he's made no guarantees as to what's in tomorrow's patch.

Well, if you guys understands Wags the same way I do then we should get JHMCS, Maverick (E), FPAS and antenna logic fixed in todays OB patch (which will be the last in this month):

 

 

As mentioned in a recent newsletter, we are pushing hard for JHMCS with AIM-9X support, Maverick, FPAS page, and corrected A/A antenna logic after undesignated button lock release. All is looking good, but the AGM-65F and G versions will unfortunately not be ready until next month.

 

 

The sentence highlighted in bold tells me that only AGM-65F and G version won't come this month - and in turn the other mentioned items will!

 

 

I am not sure we always got a video from Wags in the past explaining the new stuff before the release of a new functionality or system in an OB update. At least I would not complete rule out that JHMCS will be in todays patch just because there has been no video (as of yet...).

 

 

But in a few hours time all the speculation will come to an end...:music_whistling:

Here’s a question. We’ve seen the demo of the jchms being used in an A2A mode. Will the version we’re getting eventually link up to the ATFLIR for designation of ground targets?

What means "corrected A/A antena logic..."

Isnt it corrected now?

 

And what is that FPAS page?

 

I think with antenna logic they're talking about the B Sweep getting stuck on one side of the radar, FPAS is a page that gives you your range with current speed/fuel and gives you advice on what the best speed/altitude to fly at would be to get maximum range (among other stuff).

It has not been added on today's patch :(, so we will have to wait probably to next week or beginning of November.
