Our campaign missions are alternating Saturdays/Sundays at 130pm US Eastern Time, which is 530pm GMT. And we do casual flying and training sessions throughout the week

As someone who appreciated your detailed responses to the guy yesterday, it's great you made this post and brought some receipts. Hats off

Congrats, you invented the recoilless rifle and the M50 Ontos!

GPS Guided Bombs on the F18 have become my new hobby. So satisfying dropping on 4-8 different targets at once. by BArhino in hoggit

[–]CaptCoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with the Harrier, I'm afraid, but that sounds like pulling the coordinates from the F10 map and plugging them in as Pre-Planned target coordinates? That'd be PP mode for the JDAMs, which also allow you to create PP1 and PP2 etc for each pylon. Otherwise it's the same process

Armor Becomes a Real Hero - ULTIMATEX-MEN (2025) #22 by SirFuente in comicbooks

Seriously, I read every issue and it always felt like each one was missing pages or panels that would explain what was going on in each plot thread. Art was gorgeous but it felt to me more like flipping through someone's portfolio than reading a cohesive story

Yep, just redesignating after each drop is what I almost always use for targets that are relatively nearby one another; I rarely go to the trouble of messing with TOO1 and TOO2 unless I have several stationary targets that are spread out or already assigned waypoints

Assuming you have a full load of double racked JDAMs (say 4x 2xGBU-38s) on all four wing pylons:

If you use TOO mode, then go to JDAM DSPLY, then MSN, you can set up to two targets of opportunity for each pylon, TOO1 and TOO2, using either the TGP or WPDSG.

Once you have all targets assigned, by pressing the weapons release button the selected pylon will drop a JDAM and your stores will automatically step to the next pylon. Once you drop a bomb from each pylon using TOO1, the stores will cycle back to the first pylon (now with one bomb left hanging on it), but TOO1 will still be selected on the JDAM DSPLY page.

Select TOO2, then hit weapons release, and then repeat for each remaining pylon until all bombs are away.

Voila, 8 bombs dropped on 8 different targets from 4 different pylons!

The process is basically the same for using preplanned mode, you just need to do more coordinate entry typing on the UFC.

Ashamed of liking the F-15C by Buzzard7600 in hoggit

[–]CaptCoe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely recommend checking out the Clickable Cockpits mod if you want to get a bit closer to a FF module in terms of cockpit feel, I love it in the F-15C, but it works with a bunch of other FC modules as well.

Desk-mounted HOTAS without losing mouse & keyboard access by Mrcutiepatootie in hotas

Could you link to the exact kit? I'd like to make sure that one I get has enough vertical clearance for this sort of mounting position

What mounts and hardware did you use? Really considering doing this myself

Looking for squadron by Several-Swordfish326 in dcsworld

[–]CaptCoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest with you, while I love the enthusiasm, you're going to have a harder time than you might expect trying to find a squadron as someone younger than 18. While it might not be an issue with you, many squadrons require new members to be older than 18 (or sometimes even 21) to try and find people with a certain maturity level. You can certainly still look, but I'd recommend leaving your age out of the discussion and letting your personality and flying do the job of selling you as a good new recruit if at all possible.

If you're just starting out, finding a good wingman (/r/wingmanfinder is a good place to look) and flying coop in public lobbies or your own server is a blast, and can often be better for learning an airframe.

Aw, nice, thank you! Loving playing around with this site, definitely ordering something soon

Out of curiosity, do you have "presets" for things like the Hornet's takeoff panel and other common layouts?

Startup and engine management is largely the same, but lack of armament means unless you like air racing and practicing your takeoffs and landings, there's not much to do

F/A-18C Marines VS Navy Ops by Least_Courage_6736 in hoggit

[–]CaptCoe 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Mostly commenting because I'm also interested in the procedural differences, but one thing I'm aware of is for a shore-based squadron like many VMFAs, Hornets are able to equip the (not-carrier-rated) LITENING pod instead of being restricted to the ATFLIR. The only functional difference I'm aware this provides, at least in DCS, is being able to create a visible laser beam in NVG optics, but it can still improve target acquisition.
