CommandT Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Hey folks, is it possible to somehow use a bullseye in FC3 aircraft? More specifically the Su-27? Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconus Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Easiest method is to dedicate one waypoint to BE and then reference from it. 1 Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX3060 Rift S T16000M TWCS TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set a waypoint on the BE and reference the back side of the needle on the HSI as the azimuth and convert the km to nm by multiplying by 2 and reducing bit less than 10 percent (8% to be closer). so 100 nm will be 200 minus 16 = 184 km (which is close enough to the exact conversion of 1.852 km for 1 nm) Cheers!

CommandT Posted October 26, 2022 Author Share Posted October 26, 2022 Hmmm, that means you have to go out of radar mode though! Hmmm. I see. Thanks anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamLink Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Well, at least in the F-15 and the A-10, you can select the steerpoint you've pre-planned as your Bullseye, and when you go into A-A/A-G modes, your analog HSI (as well as the HUD) will still keep the references to that steerpoint, pointing you to the bearing and range for it - unless you fly over it, then it'll cycle to the next waypoint and you'll have to re-select it. For the Flankers and the Frogfoots I'm not sure the analog will keep the references - I think it does, but have to double check that - but as far as I know, the Flanker's Head Down Display will show you only the Data Link screen as soon as you enter the BVR/Close Combat modes, and will clear out all of the Navigation informations.

And you can use it to head straight toward the WP, if you desire. This is true for BVR mode and, I assume, for WVR modes as well. But truth be told, if I’m in close combat, my eyes are outside the cockpit. The HDD is the last thing I’m looking at.
