jetkid Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) I think this can help to understand - maybe Description of diagrams Upper part is a very precise representation of the CI in B-Scope scanning mode. Below the CI an hypothetical profile of the terrain (also very accurate haha). Then in the central part our beloved Viggen, which by setting the radar at 15 km gradually approaches the B-scope scanning area. Consider the Viggen always at high altitude in order to not have hidden ground amongst the reliefs. Case 1: moving towards waypoint b1 In this case, given that only what is included in the 10km of the B-Scope area is represented on the CI, we need to subtract what remains behind the aircraft as it approaches the upper limit of the B-Scope area, keeping this upper bound fixed in the CI. Thus in the CI we see the image disappear from the bottom upwards (in the schema below from left to right). Case 2: waypoint b1 passed but the pilot reselects it In this case, I have done several tests and it seems to me that the following happens. Given that -also here- only what is included in the 10km of the B-Scope area is represented on the CI, as the aircraft approaches we need to subtract what goes further between the upper limit of the B-Scope area and the radar scanning range limit adopted by the aircraft at that moment (in my example 15km). So as the Viggen approaches the upper bound of the B-Scope scan area, in the CI we see the image disappear from top to bottom (in the schema below from right to left). It's very complex to explain for me, this is my try. Is it correct @MYSE1234? Thank you!

I think you should remove all the quotation marks. The last sentence about the four borders could be simplified too. I suggest something like: Quote The B-scope displays a vertical extent about the range of the selected waypoint from -4 km on the near side to +6 km on the far side, and +/-20 deg horizontally. "Subsonic is below Mach 1, supersonic is up to Mach 5. Above Mach 5 is hypersonic. And reentry from space, well, that's like Mach a lot." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOViper Posted December 6, 2023 Author Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) Thanks guys for your quick feedback!! @Machalot: You meant: The B-scope displays a vertical extent about the range of the selected waypoint from -4 km on the near side to +6 km on the far side, and +/-20 deg horizontally. I had to correct this, since its -6 and +4!
