JAH09 Posted June 23, 2024 Posted June 23, 2024 Hello, I have been practicing dogfighting with a wingman. I have troubles sometimes where I cannot identify friend or foe. On my FCR we are too close and everyone is piled on top of one another so TMS left does not help, plus you have to look down. I was hoping there would be a way to tell your wingman to pop a flare for quick identification. The only other way I have been able to do it is to get close and zoom in. Doing this though causes me to focus on them and not my surroundings. in the mission I was up against 2 F-5’s. yes they are smaller but their silhouette is similar to the viper, at lease for me when from a distance. Is there another way that I just have not found yet? Also what about dogfighting at night? that’s got to be impossible.
razo+r Posted June 23, 2024 Posted June 23, 2024 A TGP can help. This way you can lock a target and use the TGP to identify it. But other than that, you will eventually have get in there and identify them visually, order your wingman to return to formation or get him shot down so the only ones left are the enemies. And yes, dogfighting at night is very difficult.
