Dino Cattaneo's F-14D Tomcat Version 2.25

[YoYo]

1/ is it implemented here in the air refuel? Didnt work for me



2/ I see only "Shoot" info for Phoenix from 10-16 nm in A2A mode, Radar ON, PH selected, Lock on the other aircraft (Enter but not a yellow Lock [?]), Hi alt, but saw info from the others about good hunting from 40-50 nm too. How to do that?

[Dino Cattaneo]

Air refuel code has been completely remade in the latest version in order to implement a proper fuel flow rate (much slower than the previous iteration)... but the code has not been tested.


As for the AIM-54, there is a bug in the Tacpack code (which I hoped it was solved but apparently is not) - thing is the missiles report their ranges for NON-lofted trajectories, regardless if they are commanded to "loft" or not. AIM-54 achieves his range through an extremely lofted trajectory. It is possible to shoot and hit targets at 40-50Nm (depending on speed and aspect), provided you have a missile lock. In short, disregard the reported missile range as it is inaccurate.

Ahh ok! I will be more patient, will check it again. Thank You Dino for reply.

Edit:

Dino I checked. Didnt work refuel option in the air now. I changed next time for F-35, no problems with too same tanker, so perhaps problem in 2.25 of F-14.

btw, pilot texture is available for the f14d (same as t45c) in the soh lib.

Just wanted to pop in and express a quick thanks - my long awaited X-55 arrived today, and I've just spent a very pleasing hour and a half doing nothing but practicing my angle of attack to the deck (well, ground, since I was flying out at KNFL). Such a great plane, really is one of my favorites in FSX.

All,

thanks for the appreciation!
It is good to know that people enjoy flying the virtual Tomcat.
There are a couple of further tweaks I will release soon.

Dino,

How to deselect this diamond from A/G mode? Always when Id like to release a bombs they follow to marked target, not like CCIP free fall.

All,

Dino,
For sure!

[Dino Cattaneo]

In my current implementation, guided ordnance will always try to follow the assigned target if any - even if the release mode is set to CCIP.
You may want to load unguided ordnance if that is the scope.

Yupiii!!!
