skywalker22 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) I have just seen this onboard video taken from Turkish F-16, and I believe it's the Block 50 or 52. Pay attention on the Gun reticle (also known as Target designator circle), how it overlaps practically every stuff on the HUD, while it is moving all over it, except the EEGS Gun funnel: Viper in DCS does not do that. Maybe an idea for an update in the future? Would be a cool edition to the Viper. EDIT2: removed the topic's tag, since we are still not sure if this is not for DCS's block. Edited November 16, 2022 by skywalker22 Posted the correct video, before it was from Block 30. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an indicator it's some sort of fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely not something like this overlapping gun reticle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know mate, 1st the mode is in SIM, which either is practice or is not real DGFT, 2nd the video footages look fake as Simulator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASAP Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Yeah if that’s a sim it absolutely puts DCS to shame. Looks real to me. The jet being in SIM has no bearing on anything. If real it is obviously footage from a training mission based the fact that the gun never fires and the targeted jet never explodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywalker22 Posted November 16, 2022 Author Share Posted November 16, 2022 Of course it's a real footage. Now the question only is, to which Block does it belong to? But it's also a question if this is block 50 (or 52), does USAF also has the same type of the HUD. Would be cool to find any other footage, I will look into it.

So please, stick to the point guys. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this upper video you can clearly see towards the end of it (at 1:50min).null 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
