USAFMTL Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Anyone have one handy? Or know how to edit and can show me how? I am attempting to modernize the F-15. [sigpic][/sigpic] US Air Force Retired, 1C371 No rank or title will ever be as important as the unit patch you wear.
=OPS=Slider Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 It's easy to add the 9X for the F-15, but it still would be kinda useless without the JHMCS, or any other helmet mounted cueing system. I think the only option is to try to add the helmet sight from the Su-27, but it's also not that easy, as the Flanker pilots use helmet to aim with the EOS and not the seeker of the Archer (R-73) itself.
USAFMTL Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 The USAF was using the AIM-9X without the JHMCS for years. So it is still possible. I just dont remember how to add it.

=OPS=Slider Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 I didn't say it's impossible, but kinda useless when you still need to point your nose at enemy plane to fire off a missile. Nonetheless I can do it later, unless someone else makes the mod faster.
USAFMTL Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Would be better if I could remember how to it. I took 3 years off from simming, modding and skinning and it's like I forgot how to. If you get time that would be awesome. Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk [sigpic][/sigpic] US Air Force Retired, 1C371 No rank or title will ever be as important as the unit patch you wear.

USAFMTL Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Only C models. Which brings me to my next point. The Georgian War campaign for FC3 takes place in 2008. 2008 was the Block II AIM-9X introduction. So at the very least the AIM-9X Block I should be an option or am I off kilter here?

Sent from my SM-N975U using Tapatalk One could probably say the same for the AESA V1s, so I dunno. The -9X doesn't have a very good combat track record (RL) though...so are you sure you really want them?!? :)
USAFMTL Posted September 30, 2019 Author Posted September 30, 2019 Now if I can get into modding enough and remembering how to do stuff a AESA like mod might be possible. I just want to be productive again and give to the community like I used to.

Rainmaker Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 FWIW, I'm not even sure if the BLK II version is even operational yet.

=OPS=Slider Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 I've added the AIM-9X for the Eagle, so now you can load it up on stations 1-3 and 9-11. Drop the file into X:\DCS World OpenBeta\Scripts\Database\planes and replace the file when asked. Keep in mind that it brakes the Integrity Check (IC) so you won't be able to join servers with IC on. You will have to either, remove the file for the time playing on a secured server, or play on servers without IC.F-15C.lua
