I'm suprised that the F-18C is so high up on the list. I was expecting the F-15 and SU-27 being faster. Also expected the mirage 2000 being faster than where it is now. Not any scientific data, just suprised.

I have a quick question. With the new authentication system in place, does it still mean you can't use the steam AV-8B in standalone? Asking because of the steam sale.

And DCS 2.5 is coming up, which is a vast improvement! The Caucasus map will be completely revamped and you can use that for free with BS2

The one it refuses to remember is the realtek high definition microphone. clientlog.txt

I have a question about the selectable record and play devices. I use some virtual sound cables and when I start simple radio it always chooses the wrong recording device. It does not remember the one I selected last time. Is it something wrong that I did or is the preference not saved?

You have logged in the module messenger in dcs with the account you purchased the modules with? Have you just reinstalled? When and how did it stop working?

Like dburne said, try reinstalling the display driver (downloaded ofcourse). But first delete the current one using DDU.

If operating conditions are such that the water is needed at the maximum cooling rate, there is only enough water available to remain in hover for about 90 seconds before the supply is exhausted. However, the aircraft rarely needs to use this cooling water at the maximum rate, and can therefore hover for considerably longer than 90 seconds.

Nice. I already have the gazelle so I won't enter, but it's a nice idea for people who don't own it yet.

Yep, that's what I heard from Matt aswell. Abris should work. It was during a video where he was answering questions about the moving map in the a-10. He said the a-10 won't have a map of Normandy, but the abris of the ka-50 should just work, due to it using mission editor information.

I would definitely recommend the mirage 2000c. It's systems are not to difficult to learn, but still offer a challenge. F-15 and su-27 are superior when they are allowed to equip the aim-120 and r-27er respectively, but you can still do very well with the mirage. It is my go to A2A aircraft.

When I just started playing DCS, I was still running a 5870. I can't remember ever having trouble with it. Only the particles were rendered differently on amd cards, which resulted in less dense smoke IIRC. When the gtx970 came out I immediately switched to that though, so it is some time ago.

Really coming together nicely

I've done some reading and all I can find is that it is a broadband seeker, which implies that it can scan different bandwiths. The weapons locks onto a emission source and the locked target is displayed on the HUD and a tone is generated. I've also read that the weapon can be put in a certain mode that it will automatically fire when it detects a radar source. This is used when running in on ground targets and will automatically fire to supress (kill) the airdefense. Furthermore it has a loft mode, but i'm not to sure about how it works.

I think it is just a "shoot in the general direction of the radiating source" weapon. It will lock on to the first radar signal the seeker is able to detect. I don't think you can choose a target for the missile.
