    I have the game, but not playing it due to a few reasons. One, getting the planes started - well that's been sorted thanks to this great video. Two, working overseas for extended periods meant I have to leave my joystick at home. Will definitely get one once I am back in the US again. Three, difficulty. Watching you and GS really is great, wish I could play like you guys.

I've been watching and loving jets for over 60 years and I really want to learn how. I'm 68 and playing DCS is on the list. I had the great opportunity of flying in one of my customers airplanes.I was his mailman for 15 years. My customer was a veteran F15 pilot and he took me up in his Yak and he let me experience all the various dog fighting maneuvers. IT WAS AWESOME !!! Hopefully I'll get to learn to play.

    I really appreciated this video. I started DCS years ago with A-10C and self-taught in all aspects. A bit challenging (and i’m a GA pilot). But feels like improvements and new planes have come faster that i could update and assimilate them … so i almost feel like i’ve gone backward. Plus i have fallen in love with rotary, so i like the idea of a playground for helicopters. This helps. Thanks.

I jumped in the F-15C just mapped out the flight characteristics. Truly, I'm totally biased for the USN being an old navy rotor head. I really like the f 15C and deeply appreciate the tutorial. Going to save this one and map out the standards as you shown. Deeply appreciated brother. Thank you 🕊️

    @karlchilders5420 8 місяців тому +1

    IT IS NOT RANGE WHILE SCAN!!!!
    It's range while SEARCH. TWS is Track while scan, as you have said.
    TWS = multi target tracking across a WIDE area. Target discrimination is reduced, as this is a lower radar transmit power setting. RWS = Range while search, which is designed to discrminite targets within a specific range setting, and it provides higher tracking fidelity than TWS. STT is the best way to get tracking information on a single target as maximum transmit and computing power are applied to the target to get all possible data points you want from that target. Some radars also have ACM (air combat mode), long range search, vertical acquisition (VACQ), velicity search with ranging (VSR) and more. It depends on the radar set and a few other factors.
