Dim external lighting...

[Donut]

The external lighting, specifically the anti-collision lights still seem extremely dim and virtually useless currently.  Are there plans to improve on their brightness and visibility, to be more in line with the lighting seen in the Hornet and Viper?

I have noticed this too. I can also say that compared to the f18, the formation light strips are basically non-existent when viewing the plane from further than 25 yards.

They did tune it some time ago, but it still has problems. One of them is, as you can see the AC at night approaching the carrier, the light are not visible in the platcam, and also, they lights get dimmer as they get closer (As they LOD switches). So yeah, light needs tuning for sure.

I had a hard time on a night mission recently in MP. Friend of mine was in the Tomcat, where I was in a Hornet. He could see me fairly easily, while I had a very hard time finding his lights, unless very close to him. He had launched from the boat a few minutes before I did, and I couldn't find him at all to join in formation, even with relative bearing calls. He eventually joined on me as he could readily see my lights
