Czechnology Posted June 29, 2022 Posted June 29, 2022 I've been trying and so far failing to find good pictures of the back seater area. Anyone got any? Cockpit pictures in general accepted though I think 1

Heinlein Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 This is an F-4E rear cockpit. this is the DMAS version I believe
Biggus Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 I'm bumping this, because I'm making a very abbreviated front cockpit and I'm struggling to find useful images of the front seat right hand side consoles. The 3D cockpits have been an enormous help for the left side, but there is stuff laying on those right side consoles. Has anyone found a decent set of images?
Lodkins Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) National Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton, Ohio has Cockpit 360 Front and rear views for F-4: C, G and RF-4C unless that is what the "3D Cockpits" is https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit/Virtual-Tour/Cockpit360/ Edited March 3, 2023 by Lodkins 1

The fighter cockpits have been enormously helpful for the left side and the front, but the right side is really hard to see. The right side is much clearer in the RF-4C but I'm not sure how different that will be from the F-4E. Still, it's a very big help and thank you for drawing my attention to it!

Diesel_Thunder Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 @Czechnology I posted some shots in a thread recently for the simpit builders. These are from a USAF hard wing D model. Here's an eye level shot of the WSO cockpit looking forward. There anything in particulat you're looking for? 7 PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!

Biggus Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 @Diesel_Thunder could you grab some pics of the right side front seat console please? Nearly every other image I've found has the O2 tube and other things laying across them. 1
Diesel_Thunder Posted March 5, 2023 Posted March 5, 2023 @Biggus Here you go. As a bonus, I'm able to get a clear shot as our ejection seats are out right now. :) 6 4 PC: MSI X670E, Ryzen 9 7900X, 64GB DDR5 RAM, RTX 3090 Ti, TM Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight pedals, Opentrack Link to my Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/DieselThunderAviation Commander, 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron Join the 62nd VFS today!

Biggus Posted April 28, 2023 Posted April 28, 2023 I've stumbled upon something I haven't yet seen shared here. The Cockpit360 Project, who I believe were the ones to create the 3D scans of the F-4C, G and RF-4C at the National Museum of the USAF have also managed to scan an F-4E at the Wings Over the Rockies museum. Unfortunately I've only found it on Facebook, but I'll take what I can get. I'm not an expert on the USAF variants at all but it looks like a DSCG bird to me. 2
JetCat Posted June 7, 2023 Posted June 7, 2023 What could be more incredible than bringing these museum pieces back to life with 100% photorealistic ultra high polygon laser scans? I have read some times that a few developers to this now to catch all these extreme details like all the tiny cables and hoses and screws and other details. 1

I have read some times that a few developers to this now to catch all these extreme details like all the tiny cables and hoses and screws and other details. Theres a bunch of techniques, laser scanning, 360 photos, photogrammetry, etc. I think HB might already do a few of those things. 1
Biggus Posted June 14, 2023 Posted June 14, 2023 So, I've found an E that has been scanned by the Cockpit360 guys. Unfortunately it's only on FB, and there's no zoom. I'm working on the fuel panel at the moment, and I've run into a bit of confusion that I'm hoping one of the Heatblur guys could maybe answer or drop some hints about. Last night on discord, I was asking for some good reference pictures for that panel, and one of the very helpful users promptly uploaded a better scan from the manual than I had. It is an exact match for the Cockpit360 G here. However, upon looking more closely at the scanned E, I can see that the panel is laid out differently. Like a mash-up with the flares/normal switch from the G, but with the switches of the C (here, for example) and D. What I'd like to confirm is whether the DSCG fuel panel follows the layout as given in the manual, or whether it's closer to the earlier panel in that linked E cockpit above (ie, no flares/normal switch)? I'm 90% sure that that linked F-4E has a pre-DSCG fuel panel. @IronMike could you see if you are able to shed any light on this? 1
