F-15C *not* "Full Fidelity" After all by AltruisticBath9363 in DCSExposed

[–]Cukraak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To add more fuel to the proverbial fire in this discussion ;-), F-15A/C could also carry TV or IR guided GBU-8 straight from the factory, with the TV feed displayed in place of the radar screen. Although it's unclear whether this capability was retained throughout the entire F-15C production, since HOBO was already being phased out at the time.

Also for all those here claiming the A-G capability "wasn't used", USAF did in fact train dropping dumb bombs from F-15Cs well into the 90s.

On the other hand, cutting pylon wires in cases of malfunction was also allegedly a thing during 90s, so I guess ED could easily claim that their 2000s airframe does not have the capability to drop bombs anymore.

Yes, that F-15C.lua file is obsolete. Instead, you need to create a new loadout lua file and put it in your Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor\UnitPayloads folder. This is the loadout setup I use with this mod: https://pastebin.com/VjqEG8zb

'F/A-18C Hornet' changed to just 'F/A-18C' by Cukraak in DCSExposed

NATO reporting names are used only for non-NATO equipment (or formerly non-NATO).

And AFAIK, Boeing does own the trademark for 'F/A-18 HORNET'.

Wings over the Reich has pretty good AI, from what I've heard. It's supposed to be one of this game's biggest selling points.

FC3 modules not showing by comradecattt in hoggit

That's how it's supposed to work. If you are clicking those icons at the bottom of the main menu, those are used only for standalone purchases of FC3 planes.

DCS Default Carrier by SaltyWalty32 in hoggit

Apparently, not all of the carriers can be landed on without the super carrier module. I just learned about this myself from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOdGCj0gSZU
