Cocaine_squirrel Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 [ame] [/ame] I know VEAO said they're not going to be able to implement all the systems, and again not sure if this is a repost or not, but an intresting video none the less talking through some of the cockpit systems and layout.

Manuel_108 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Pretty sure VEAO will implement all systems shown in the video as they are clearly not confidential at all. Link to comment

Aginor Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yes. There are planes with much worse visibility. DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment
whiteladder Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I think its a odd angle or just how the mock up is put together looks okay in this view. Link to comment
Aginor Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I think it also has a adjustable seat. DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment
webb2526 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yeah the seat is surprisingly adjustable, so near enough anyone could fit into the cockpit Mechanical Aircraft Technician - RAF Pilots licence - LAPL (A+S) Intel I7 6700K @4.8GHz / MSI RTX 2080 Gaming trio / 32Gb DDR4 3000MHz RAM Link to comment
Aginor Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I once heard a rumour (no clue if this is actually true) that one reason for Germany to take part in developing the Eurofighter and not buy the Rafale from France was that in the Rafale the pilot should not be taller than 1.75m to properly fit in. If it is true I bet the designers made sure that the seat is adjustable enough to allow both tall and small pilots to fly it. :) DCSW weapons cheat sheet speed cheat sheet Link to comment
webb2526 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yeah, I know some very tall and quite small Typhoon pilots. I guess it has to be adjustable enough so the majority of people can fit in the cockpit, because hight shouldn't really be a deciding factor on if you can be a jet pilot or not :p Mechanical Aircraft Technician - RAF Pilots licence - LAPL (A+S) Intel I7 6700K @4.8GHz / MSI RTX 2080 Gaming trio / 32Gb DDR4 3000MHz RAM Link to comment
Pman Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Pretty sure VEAO will implement all systems shown in the video as they are clearly not confidential at all. I wouldnt say that, saying that a system is there is VERY VERY different to saying how it works, its strengths and weakness's But to answer a different post, I am 16st and I managed to climb into a Tiffie cockpit without too much trouble so they must be quite roomy ;) Pman Link to comment

Just because you can see what's on a screen doesn't mean the equipment necessary to get the data there isn't classified. Or how the data is processed, what all it can actually do (I'm sure we're never shown everything, or even anything critically important). We've seen the cockpit of the F-22. There's a ton about that one classified. We're just not shown anything that matters or how anything that matters actually works. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment
