SharpeXB Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Any good instructional material out there for BVR tactics? I hear the F-15C is supposed to rule this arena but not when I'm flying. Must be something I'm doing wrong. i9-13900K @ 6.2GHz oc | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | 64GB DDR5 5600MHz | iCUE H150i Liquid CPU Cooler | 24GB GeForce RTX 4090 | Windows 11 Home | 2TB Samsung 980 PRO NVMe | Corsair RM1000x | LG 48GQ900-B 4K OLED Monitor | CH Fighterstick | Ch Pro Throttle | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
159th_Falcon Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) There is only one important rule to remember. That is the same for every fighter you will ever be flying. Make sure you have the advantage, if your in doubt, disengage. For the rest, practice, and research the different radar modes on the plane and what they are intended for. (can't explain cause i only fly the russian jets) PS, for the FC3 manual navigate to your DCS World installation direcotry and go to; ...\DCS World\Mods\aircrafts\Flaming Cliffs\Doc\DCS FC3 Flight Manual.pdf Edited June 22, 2013 by 159th_Falcon [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The keeper of all mathematical knowledge and the oracle of flight modeling.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exorcet Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 I would say that F-15 is the best in BVR, but with FC, the pilot is a big factor. If you have mo experience in the Su-27, you can do much better in that plane and vice versa. The Flanker cockpit might as well be in hieroglyphics sometimes in my mind with metric units and strange instrument placement compared to the F-15. Anyway, there are good vids on youtube, but I don't have time to search now. Another issue is, are you flying SP or MP? Things can be quite different between the two because of the AI.

golfsierra2 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 You will find some good tutorials here. The tactics are still valid for FC3. http://flankertraining.com/ironhand/ kind regards, Raven....

Bolt-1 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 There is only one important rule to remember. That is the same for every fighter you will ever be flying. Make sure you have the advantage, if your in doubt, disengage. This is extremely relevant and important if you are flying as a lone wolf ! There is nothing at all wrong with disengaging to re asses the situation. If you have your fangs out and you think you are invincible when you leave your home i promise you. you will not make it back. Having the SA along with a plan of what your doing in the sky with you AC makes a huge difference. Having even just 1 wing man can make a "HUGE" difference as to whether you survive or not. And I mean a very big difference. Is the F-15 the best @ BVR ? Pilot skill is what its all about. My Specs. below ASUS TUF Z390 Pro Gaming I5 9600K@4.5 Ghz. 32 Gb. G.
