So long as the TGP is turned on with the switch in the rear cockpit, along with the countermeasures controls, the upfront HOTAS is completely capable of doing everything the rear does with the A-G radar, the TGP, the A-A radar, individual weapon sensors (ie GBU-15/AGM-130/AGM-65), etc.

is it true that it was further delayed because of the Lantirn pod instead of Lightning ?

In all the videos they show the LANTIRN and not the LITENING. So I don't think they have any issues with that.

The only aircraft with TGP problems of this nature is the F-16C which ED doesn't have enough information of the LITENING so they are modeling the LANTIRN.

That's not true in their early vids. Look at the navflir video from December, that's LITENING. They changed their minds about which pod to deliver first around late  January/early February or so.

I just found out that I'm not interested in playing DCS anymore, because I want my mudhen so badly!
Tryin' to get Janes's F-15 to work on W11 now just to calm myself down a bit while still waiting and hoping for a soon release...

F-15E is my favourite aircraft since I was a little boy and I've been really sitting on needles for months now...
...I can't help myself...

It's an F-15E Strike Eagle!!! The little 5yr old in me is jumping up and down like he's waiting for christmas! :bounce:

Peculiar

Especially considering today it's Kingsday in our country and our King was visiting Rotterdam. So it was/is beyond crowded there today 😅

This is exactly how I felt about the Tomcat. The early access unveil trailer had me in tears. lol

I hope that the lack of finished work on the manual does not block the release of the F-15. Because if this is the case and the module is ready for release, it's just waiting for the completion of work on the manual, it seems to me that in the world of DCS 99.9% of pilots after releasing the module in about 2 hours will be able to handle this fighter at an advanced level.

No, manual is critical part of EA release, it won't be skipped over if they're keeping all strings at their hands.

If BD needs more time to finish it, RB may/should extend the release date (the very one we don't know) and it's not that RB guys are bored by not actually adding any features at new builds. This module is extremely complex and manual is direct tool to prevent a swarm of bug false positives pouring down the support channel. This is a clever way to enhance probability of real bug reproduction, the ones that will slip through closed beta team attention.

So far it's over 500 pages and that's past half of what real life -1 manual weights. If you have/had access to -1, I'm sure you'd rethink about those 99.9% being RTF.

Not even close.

Except that Baltic Dragon initially said that he didn't think he'd get it out in time for the early access release, so clearly it... isn't.
