F-14 Tomcat - CAP Mission with ralfidude over Per


Recommended Posts

Posted

Great videos watched them both, loved the jet wash effect over Ralfidudes plane as you were taken off. And the fight with the fulcrum, really showed how much work you need to put into the F-14 it truly is a "hands/feet on" aircraft.

Very good vídeo!

 

Regarding the red(ish) color tone in HUD and VDI:

 

- in a way I do very much like it, as it does give a sense of old-school, classic, cold-war bird;

 

- on the other side, during the vídeo, the HUD symbology in the red(ish) tone was almost invisible...

Things got a little hot and heavy and I completely forgot to switch it to green mode after everything was said and done until my landing. But while you are playing, it really wasn't as bad as the youtube video shows. Then again I was flying off of Jabs and looking at him more than my own HUD.

 

Glad to know it!

 

By the way, besides the AIM-9 Boresight SCAN mode (seen at the vídeo), have you tried other employment modes ?

 

Like:

Boresight; AIM-9 seekerhead fixed on the HUD, without the moving search pattern.

Radar SCAN; AIM-9 search pattern around the locked radar target.

Thanks guys, top notch video!

I noticed when you were engaging the 27's you both fired multiple Phoenix missiles, but it was hard to tell because there was no visible smoke. I thought the AIM-54 has a long burn run and it smokes a lot. Something I'm missing?

The AIM-54Cs have reduced smoke.

The VDI cover is a piece of flat, red plastic. He didn't have time to take it off and stow it properly. The HUD is integral and actuated by pulling the handle on the right side of the VDI panel.

Great videos guys. While I enjoy seeing her in action, noticed nothing showcased in the form of progress on development. ~ 7 weeks out and still no RIO pit? Hmmm.

I really like the fact that we need to rely more on the gauges and not so much on a fancy HUD. Plus having to coordinate turns with rudder inputs and rely on buffet at high AoA really makes the aircraft feel real and old school ! :D

 

It will require some time to adapt but I am sure it will be a lot of fun and rewarding, especially when you catch that 3rd wire !

 

Hopefully we'll get a video soon about CASE I recoveries in the Tomcat !

What's wrong with your artificial horizon and HSI? Seems to me that they are broken. Ralfi has the same problem aa well.

 

They look fine to me.

What is it that makes you think they are broken?

 

ADI is stable despite you both make roll and pitch maneuvers. One of the HSI clock hands is spinning constantly.

I think he simply forgot to uncage it, later in the video it works.

That's because he didn't select a suitable TACAN channel.
