TheTrooper Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Hi, not sure this is in the right place. I have set a KC135MPRS in mission editor with a speed of 250knots on all its waypoints includig the plane itself at 20,000ft. However when I go to tank with it it's doing 188knots. It's pretter hard at such a slow speed in a F-18. Is this a bug or is there a way around it? ----------------------------------------------- Intel® Core™i7 Quad Core Processor i7-6700 (3.4GHz) 8MB Cache | 32GB HyperX FURY DDR4 2133MHz | MSI GeForce RTX 2070 ARMOR 8G |SSD 1TB 970 EVO Plus M.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunx Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I believe the mission editor measurements are in "ground speed" rather than "air speed".

Knock-Knock Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I use this to quickly find a ballpark value. https://aerotoolbox.com/airspeed-conversions/ So I punch in the Altitude and Equivalent Airspeed I want, to find the Mission Editor Ground Speed (True Airspeed) I need, and I dont bother with Temp Offset. - 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. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
