    In regards to the green attitude indicator, the intruder had an advanced synthetic terrain system with cueing, that's what that screen is supposed to be. It was shown on the Vertical Display Indicator, or VDI. It was useful for a terrain clearance tool called Search Radar Terrain Clearance (SRTC). SRTC used the A-7A's AN/APQ-92 search radar to generate a synthetic terrain display on the pilot's VDI. It was very cutting edge at the time.

    It looks good. There was a Flight of the Intruder PC game too that I had back in the day developed by Rowan Software and published by Spectrum HoloByte . You could fly Phantoms or Intruders. The right hand seat was a bombardier/navigator or BN aka WSO. He was not a pilot. We of course used quotes from the film about going downtown when playing the game. The screen was like a FLIR camera with other details superimposed in it for night flying

    Small correction, in the A-6 the "passenger" as called a Bomber / Navigator, or B/N, and not WSO. For the model itself, not loving the "take your kid to work day" look of the B/N in his seat, he's too low it looks like. Nice review and thank you for sharing!!

    I own a few Deimos planes, the first ones I ever bought being the MiG-29 and Felon (enjoyed the Felon a lot actually becsuse it used to be fun as hell to flip around before they nerfed it) and I think their planes have always been alright. Growing up on Ace Combat since elementary school and the closest thing to a decent combat simulator for a console being Over-G Fighters I've got pretty easy going standards for MSFS. Thar being said, I absolutey an here for this A-6. Literally the only real change I'd make is that silly green ball but tbh I could look past it even if they didn't. The exterior model looks amazing and textures are probably one of the best they have done. Lots of good liveries. Like everyone else who's bought it and liked it, I'm a big sucker for some vietnam era carrier jets babyyyy

      @@AvAngel The pilot didnt have a targeting screen, that is how the later model intruders artificial horizon was (The A model had analog). That is legitimate to the aircraft, even the white dots to represent sky zone above the horizon. The BN had the targeting screen which had a face shield they would press against to block light pollution within the cockpit. He would have (on the screen blow) an indicator that would notify when to drop the ordinance. The BN would use the radar to lock the target and keep it locked through his screen, pilot would have an indicator showing distance to drop and an indication for the weapons release point.

      @@Livonia_Livin The Mig 29 is okay, it's got better over the updates but I already said I don't recommend the felon even though they updated all the time. They're very good at updating their products. 99% of the developers just throw their aircraft out, But every week I see a deimo's update and I just like their planes. Of course they're not as good as the F35 or the heatblur F14 or the tornado or even the Typhoon. But if you want something different, Like the intruder which we have not got one yet, This is our option and I am actually enjoying it very much because the price is not high. I paid as much for this aircraft as going out to lunch and get in the hamburger today. Some people are just cheap and they won't try things. I will try it and if I don't like it I'll just put it away in the hanger. That's not the case with this aircraft and deimo gets better with every aircraft that comes out. You do realize the Griffin is completely fixed and is an excellent plane now. The a 10 makes the first a 10 that we got from I won't mention who, Look like a work of art! It has incredible graphics inside and out and most of the switches work and it flies beautifully. People just like to dog on deimos because of what they did a couple years ago but everybody deserves a second chance. No I do not like the Fellon very much. Exceptions to everything. But look at dcs. Their F14, F15, And there F4 Phantom sucks so bad not to mention the Concord! Their F16 is okay. The MS scenery planes you can gripe all about them as much as you want because we all know their garbage but deimos has constantly strived to improve their aircraft and that deserves some credit. Unlesd your one of those people who just hate on people and don't give people a second chance. And that would be just sad. Have you ever had a second chance in life and don't say no because that would be a lie! WE ALL HAVE!!!
