Ignition

There was a time when I had extra time and flew more than one aircraft. The problem was I never had the opportunity to fully learn them. I have a lot of satisfaction when everything goes by the numbers and can do everything as "perfect" as possible. If I'm doing something wrong I repeat it until I do it right. I fully train in one single aircraft at a time and I don't stop until I learn everything and I'm very confident to use every tool without overthinking. Then I start creating my own tactics for weapon deployment. It takes a lot of time. The F-15E for me is HUGE, the amount of tools it has plus the human WSO adds another layer. For me is the best aircraft of DCS. It's possible to use it from the 90's making it very usable for different missions. I hope we get good news about the F-15E as soon as possible.

I have the AH-64D, it's great. The problem is I fly with a group of people and we train together, and not everyone have helicopters. And the missions need to have an explicit place for the helicopters. The time of flight is an issue for multiplayer missions and it adds a complexity layer for TOT for the mission designer.

I dedicate to one aircraft for several years, until I know 99% how to use everything it has to offer. ATM the F-15E lacks a lot of features and has some bugs which need some workarounds. I don't feel like keep learning it without knowing when the development will resume. Also the 6-7 weeks between patches is not helping either. I flew the F-16 for 4 years and it was great but It's done for me, at least for some time. And the rest of the aircraft I own don't attract my attention ATM. So DCS will be on pause also for me until the F-15E comes back with development.

I have lots of modules but without the F-15E DCS feels very dead for me. I don't feel the need to play DCS any more. I hope the development of the F-15E resumes as soon as possible.

Razbam needed to explain why there would not be any update for any of their modules. I don't see any problem with that.

We don't know if there weren't previous conversations. I wont be buying anything DCS related until this is solved. I don't trust anything now.

The last time I tried it didn't work. I also use it on the F-16 every time. As far as I know its not implemented yet.

Thanks for adding this!

No, you need to do it for each waypoint. Also, you can't change the ACTIVE steerpoint.

Just type "3." to change it to a TGT or "3" to change it to a steer point in PB 1. To delete just type 0 in PB 1. Or you can build a B or C sequence.

Fixed : Smart Wpns PAC not sync'ing after bomb release. It looks it's fixed in the next patch.

You're very fast or you're very heavy. You can do 145kn at 22AoA. https://youtu.be/Kq5m6SyF8eI?t=346

He was talking about JTIDS/Link16, not AGM-130/GBU-15 datalink

OMG another datalink post... The priorities for some are questionable to others.

Then the rafale is not a 4.5 as they said. You can't compare then.

Not worth the read, they don't even know what the mission was. They also say the JF17 is a 3rd gen aircraft which is also not correct.

It may be, I don't know. For sure the GBU-15 is the older one lol, it needs a serious 3D upgrade. I hope RB or ED make the newer 3D model of the 130 with the correct camera, which will be correct for the AGM-130C 9. Also I hope they can make the A version (MK84) and the IR version for night operations because 1 type of weapon limits the amount of missions it can do severely.

The weapon model is an older version, we should get the newer one with the new camera.

I don't know exactly how it is displayed but in the Engine page there will be some info. Depends on the loadout but around 5000-5400 FF per engine is good for cruise.

No. I would take note of them in for example Scratchpad to know where each point is, it's not that hard since you don't need to write the coordinates just the number it has in the list. If Razbam implements a DTC for the F-15E it may be listed somewhere maybe in the kneeboard.

Speed limit is 700 knots. In game you can push a little more but your wings are going to explode, of course IRL is not like the aircraft will dismantle at 701 Other aircraft have similar speed limits like the 800 in the F-16C although you don't explode in game and you can push whatever you want.

That's what I've said.

HARMS in real life 99% of the time didn't destroy their target because there are SAM operators unlike in DCS. HARMS are VERY precise in real life.

In a war with ECM you can forget about civilian equipment, even military equipment is prone to ECM. But for training sure.

The manual is lacking here. It doesn't say it needs an *, it says it changes AM and FM
