=617= Evil Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) ED User Files Link: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3332398/ All missions take place in various regions of the Caucasus map. A series of quick missions (Most take 3-10 minutes, though 'Advanced' and 'Expert' missions may take longer), designed to help Strike Eagle pilots practice their systems workflow, refine their key binds and HOTAS controls, axis curves, and employment proficiency with a variety of both air-to-air and air-to-ground weapon systems, Air-to-Air refueling, as well as some more advanced scenario based training, that will test your flying abilities while expanding your skills. These are designed to be quick and hassle-free ways to practice selecting the weapon systems, picking your modes, options, ripple patterns, etc. in order to ingrain good muscle memory and habits so it becomes second nature when flying real missions. These are all copied and/or adapted for the F15E from my Viper practice & proficiency mission pack: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3328191/ If a mission has a live threat present, it will always be noted in the mission briefing. ******Important note: These are not tutorials. There are no step by step directions telling you how to sel ect and employ the systems required, or perform the assigned task. These are practice missions. A basic understanding of the jet is required. (Though they could be useful if you're following along with Tutorial videos or checklists.) Missions are broken down into 4 categories for easy navigation: - '.Basic': Essential skills for new pilots. Landing, formation flying, spotting, etc. - 'Weapons' - Threat free environments to practice weapons employment. The bedrock that this mission pack is built on. - 'Advanced' - Scenario-based training. Live threats present. Read all mission briefs in full. - 'Expert': - High level scenario-based missions. May contain multiple types of live threats and/or difficult flying conditions. Limited use of F10 and labels. Read mission briefs thoroughly. There is a briefing accompanying each mission letting you know your airspeed, altitude, situation and overall objective. The F10 map, Labels and Active Pause are available in all missions '***' will denote items from most recent update. Includes the following: Weapon systems: - AIM-9M Sidewinder - AIM-120C Amraam - CBU-87 - CBU-97 - GBU 10 & 12 (Single mission for both.) - GBU 24 - Mk 82 & Mk 84 Low drag bombs (single mission for both) - Mk 82 & Mk 84 High drag bombs (single mission for both) - Air to Air Guns Basic Skills: - Cold Start & Takeoff - Cold Start & Takeoff (Night) - Visual landing: clear day - Visual landing: Rain & Wind - Visual landing: Fog & low light - Visual landing: Night - Beginner Formation Flying - Air to Air Refueling (Easy comms, no external tanks) Advanced Skills: - Air to Air refueling (No F10, No labels, TACAN required, No easy comms) - Neutral BFM - Fox 2s - Neutral BFM - Guns only - Beyond Visual Range - AIM-120C - AWACS supported - Beyond Visual Range - AIM-120C - No AWACS Expert: - Fox 2 Unknown Adversary*** - Fox 3 & 1 Unknown Adversary*** ----------Next update planned: TBD----------- To install: Unzip folder and extract the Folder titled 'F15E Proficiency v1.X. Copy and paste to: Users -> *Your username folder* -> Saved Games -> DCS.openbeta (Or DCS if you're running stable version)-> Missions Then go to the 'Missions' tab on the main menu of DCS and at the top should be the folder containing all missions.

Checkmate Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I just wanted to say thank you to =617=Evil who's body of work speaks for itself. I have tried for years to create training missions that would allow me to develp the proficiency and muscle memeory needed to master the the F-16 Viper and now the F-15E Eagle. Anyone who has flown his F-16 training missions, knows the monumental effort that has gone into his work. From absolute bottom of my heart I just wanted to say thank you for making that same effort here for the F-15E. Your work is probably responsible for more sales of more F-16 Viper and now the F-15E Eagle, which I am truly indebted to you. Thank you again for all the effort and creativity that you put into your work. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon312 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Cool, already flew a couple of them. Keep up the good work, can't wait for the rest! In AAR mission you state in your briefing; "Track your progress in DED or HUD until you reach 7150 pounds etc" Q: How do I set-up my DED and/or HUD to see this progress? Any help much appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for pointing this out. As I mention, these are all copied/adapted from my F16 missions, and this is a Viper-specific feature, so disregard. I went through all the briefings to take this stuff out, but I guess I missed this one! Will be fixed ASAP. 7 hours ago, YoYo said: Thx! Just why easy comm, pls to change it ;)! Just wait for the advanced and expert level AAR missions. Remember, the AAR mission is under the .Basic category, so it's as easy as AAR can get. The follow-on missions will be much more difficult. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=617= Evil Posted November 25, 2023 Author Share Posted November 25, 2023 Maintenance update only today. v1.3 Apparently, something was introduced in the last few updates that made it so all the missions where 'easy communications' were disabled did not allow for any contact with the tanker aircraft. Until I can figure out what broke, easy comms are enabled for all missions involving aerial refueling, regardless of difficulty. If you're having trouble contacting tankers with the version you currently have, please download v1.3 and it should fix the issue. Apologies for not catching this sooner. Also, JDAM Missions are coming, and more will be added to this mission pack as we see more weapons added to the SE. I won't promise that it'll ever reach the proportions of my Viper mission pack, as it's not my primary airframe, but it will grow slowly over time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanr Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Changing the tanker to only be on 305.00 (removed the advanced waypoint action line that set freq 243.00) and set preset 1 for the F-15E to also be 305.00 and the tanker worked fine with normal comms. Might be some special handling for 243.00 since it's the guard channel that's causing the issue. Thanks for all your work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you mind sending me the .miz file in a private message so I can take a look? I'm sure I'm just missing something. Thanks for this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
