Updates look exciting

Tws looks good. Data link looks good.

Looks like we also get the centerline tank.

Any word on if they fixed/added various bugs with the AA modes too? Id loke to be able to switch missiles with a button press on the hotas as an example.

For me the one little bug that drives me nuts is not being able to use switch modes in the joystick control panel. I use it in all modules to double functions but for some reason it does not want to recognise a mode switch for the viper.

Apart from that this OB is going to be fun. I have all i need now to use the f16 a looooot more in MP.

Squadron guys will be happy for that one.

Happier still if the sequenced strobes work as well.

Really good update!

A lot of work done by the team. Thank you, ED!

The MSL STEP button is also fixed, I believe. Wags mentioned in a comment under the TWS video on the Facebook post, I think.

any news on chaff and flare dispensers not being rearmable?

Yep super excited for next update , were getting the F16 Xmas lights turned on by Wags !

I'm excited and I haven't bought the plane yet. I'll be getting it on the 3rd.

How about improving readability of MFDs?

It seems that the Link16 of F16 is more advanced! You can see from the screen who's radar locked on who! Better than F18

yeah this is also very important

Very much hope then that ED will improve the Hornet Datalink - if I understood the Viper datalink video correctly you could set up different flight frequencies etc. This would be so very useful in MP.

Yes but I believe it only shows that between your own flight's members. Still very handy.

i wish too ..or ability to modify them in lua

Meanwhile that funtionality has not been implemented yet, that has show on the MIDS / TGT Data (Group) page the diferent frecuency channels, to configurate on the D/L botton.

I wouldn't expect that - Wags didn't show us or explain how the frequency setup worked and, going on past history, that normally means it's not functional. It'll probably be the same as the Hornet's, where it takes the flight setup from the mission editor to create the flights.

Which doesn’t really help in MP slots... wish you could modify it.

So no radar assisted gunnery yet? Rats.

Or is it just that the f18 doesnt have this implemented yet?

Likely true for the time being.

I assume the little numbers below the contacts are their altitudes, yes? This is a big plus over the Hornet because it gives a much better total global picture compared to only having that info on a single contact.

Everything planned for the update sounds really good. One thing that hasn't been mentioned, but I hope gets fixed is the cursors for the tgp & hud are out of sync.
