DCS World F-16C Air to Ground Radar with Targeting Pod

DCS World F-16C Air to Ground Radar with Targeting Pod

Hey Pilots! Today's video is going to go over the use of the new Ground Map Mode with the air to ground radar in the F-16C. There are a few bugs associated with this release in the latest open beta in #dcsworld but we can work around them and still enjoy the new features brought to the #viper. Would I say this is the most efficient way at the moment to find targets with the TGP in visual conditions? No I wouldn't but it can be done... I would use the A/G radar more for IMC conditions but you can't use the TGP if you have clouds. I hope you all enjoy the new features and I look forward to more in the future.

Thanks for your support!

What I tested you can press TMS Right to slew the TGP to radar SPI

[jared]

I think we've reached a point where we can honestly start recommending it over the Hornet. Before I thought the Viper deserved a large warning label if someone I knew was going to purchase it. Now, especially with HTS right around the corner, it really is starting to shine

[TheMikeification]

The DCS F-16C is coming along very nicely. Amazing the amount of detail these sim modules offer. Nice video!

[lordlobs]

Ooo, I didn't know about the clicking the TGT OSB workaround to make the TGP point at the AG radar SPI! That should be useful while ED fix the bugs! Thanks, man!

[Crunch]

Big ol' boom! Nice work as always.

[jarhead]

Didn't know we could do this, thx. Now the AG radar is a lot more useful.

[Maverickf]

Just what I was looking for! Though I feel like it kind of defeats the purpose of having the ag radar, I usually just have the tgp slaved to a steer point in good weather. I would only use AG radar with heavy clouds over the target when I cant use the tgp, and then there’s no purpose to do the hand-off. Thanks for the help

[kaspariito]

thanks for the viper vids. keep em coming!

[CynicalOldDwarf]

I hope the harrier gets upgraded to the II+ at some point

[g.skouras]

awesome man thanks for sharing your work...

[FlyingBullets]

1:06 "they might be russian" hahahaha, thx for the video :)

[Maverickfflyer]

When I press the A button (LEFT MFD OSB 18) and I'm already in DBS1/2, the radar still simulates being in 60 degrees and doesn't move to 30 or 10 degrees. Only in NORM it works to modify the radar's azimuth limit. Any idea why this happens? Kindly appreciate. Thanks!

[thunderace]

Thank you for making this video for us.

[bestskateboreder]

First this is amazing, can u please tell me program of filming are you using at the last 30 sec of the video cuz this looks amazing

[flyguy]

Looks like this is loadout dependent. If I have training bombs and rockets, the button with TGT on it is STP instead.

[speedbird]

Thanks Tricker. How come you did't get the black area around the FCR cursor when you hit EXP and then DSB1 and DSB2. You didn't seem to offset at all. I get a black area when I do that so I need to offset to fix it, but you didn't get that at all.

[Capachili]

did this change between the release of this video and now? i’m following the steps exactly and i’m not getting the same results

[pedditte]

btw...is your rdr cursor for GM radar really slow like mine?

[cenkcdemir]

ground radar is pretty useless for finding targets. you can see only airfields or big bridges etc. and if you know that your target is in that field then you can make fine tunning. and if the weather is not good, you can only bomb very roughly estimated area

[dagisiemens]

What is the circle that creeps up in the FCR around 2:08?
