AB detent switch such as in F/A-18

Hello,

F/A-18 got a key (called "Throttle Finger Lift (Both) - UP/DOWN") which will enable AB only if it's pressed.

In F-16 we have only toggle key (called "Cycle Afterburner Deten - ON/OFF") which cycle enable/disable AB.

 

I in the middle of the fight I usually don't know if it's enable or disabled so I need to cycle both throttle and AB detent switch.

 

Would be nice to have that option from F/A-18 in F-16.

detent support has been requested internally, as a DCS core feature in controls to help users configure detents with hardware, but I have no news to share currently.

Perhaps adding an indicator to the throttle curve mapping as well.  That way people can move a throttle to Mil and adjust the curve as needed to set the tripping point to AB.  Just another option to think about.
