As I don't exspect more planes to come here are some 'wishes' regarding the F15c that might be applied with the next patch:

1.) Radars

1.1 TD-Mode as well as BVR-Mode and others are supposed to keep the radars antenna vertical angle locked the same, relativly to ground, no matter how you fly (I guess it does, aint it not ?). As I cannot imagine that the radar is able to make a 180 gegrees backturn in the nose when I go up with a 100% pitch, I exspect the radars elevation marks to up as well.

They don't. If thats realistic -> keep it, if not -> change it please.

1.2 Related to 1.1: if its true that antennas vertical angle is supposed to be locked relativly to the ground, then I wish a display of what angle is currently applied. It's a bit difficult to find that out by oneself.

1.3 When you are on 'fighter sweep' tou might wish to fly in nav-mode with the radar on. You still wish to lock on a target in nav-mode to see what it is. Then you might like to engage and after taht return to nav-mode. now your radar is coming switched off and you have to set it up again. So please keep the radar on when you switch modes (even restore manual setups when returning from cannon or boresight modes)!!!

1.4 Oh yeay - one most important, if you selected boresight or another auto-mode first you cant use TD-Mode directly but first have to switch to BYR-Mode !

2.) Cannon

If you switch to Cannon while beeing in nav-mode there is no aiming-cross or whatever. Don't know waht it means but I guess you can fix it (or fully disable the cannon in nav-mode)

3.) Mig29-Hud and RADARS (!) are not covered in the manual.


Do you agree with those suggestions ?

Cant answer 1 but 2 and 3 I can.

2. There is a mode where you can select cannon and all you get is a grid on your hud. This is called CetKa mode. I believe its 8. No a/c can operate the cannons in nav mode simply because it safes all weapons.

3. MiG-29 hud symbology and radar is covered in the training portion of the game.

Well thanks for now. You mean 'Grid Mode' I guess. Never have used it at all especially cause it doesnt seem to work in f15c. However, what should that grid be good for ?

PS: Trainingsections are a useless b's' for me (except of the flight school covering turns and engagement-moves)

cetKa (grid mode) is only in the russian birds. This is an alternative way to aim your weapons when your HUD malfunctions and doesnt work. You can drop your bombs, strafe ground targets and shoot down aircraft with guns, or you can aim rockets as well...if i remember correctly. Ive never had to use cetKa mode cuz if your hud is out you might as well RTB.

The training menu's are there for a good reason. But I do agree they dont cover the aspect of teh cockpits all that well. But most of us here in the community are from Flanker 2.51, and that sim has all the training one needs to learn LOMAC. 1 year of Flanker got me ready for 1 year of LOMAC without having to train. But that was one year of training in flanker. Not everyone has flanker.

Heres an idea: go to www.lockon.ru and download the manual for 1.1. Its not the same as 1.02, but its close enough. Live and learn.
