DCS: F-16C Viper | Mark Points

In this DCS: F-16C Viper video, we’ll discuss the use of Mark Points in the Viper. A Mark Point location can be designated through the HUD, the HMCS, radar, or targeting pod, and stores the location in steerpoints 26 to 30. This is useful for returning to a target, and later, sharing over the datalink between flight members.

Mark Points can also be shared through the datalink.

One of the most important uptdates
Hope the AG symbology will appear in the HCMS

The level of complexity in AI terrain analysis that goes into just this one function on the real jet is amazing. Add to that the complex missile tracking systems, internal mechanics and electronics, and all of the sensors that provide probably an unquantifiable level of feedback into the computer... really impressive engineering to say the least

Wags: the Viper is getting better and better with every update…
It’s sad he isn’t with us anymore, but Igor Tishin would have been amazed, proud and thrilled…! Thank you, and great job!

ED team is killing it right now with the awesome Viper content keep it up!

[Pricklyhedgehog]

It's going to be a busy holiday season getting to grips with all these goodies...pods, modules, module updates, map updates, and that's largely just the ED content folks.

[JasonBourne]

I'm very pleased you guys have gone full speed on updates for this module. Each update is impressive every time. Thanks for the continued hard work.

I have also noticed the following functionality:

Mark Point to Steer Point - Press 0 M-SEL in Mark Point screen with Mark Point selected. Allows you to set current Mark Point as the Steer Point without leaving the Mark Point DED screen.

Change Mark Point source = Dobber Right

Now I can relive my favorite Lt Col Dan Hampton stories.

What a great day! Two brilliant updates. In these trying times it’s great to see that there are still better things on the horizon that we can look forward to.

[MrPhantom]

Very useful. Great to see this feature implemented. Thanks for all the hard work.

[JayI]

I am always impressed seeing that air to ground radar in action.

[stratos]

I can't wait for the sharing through datalink to flight members feature! This will be awesome.

[f-c]

Great news! I hope the AG datalink comes next so that we can collaborate with teammates using markpoints.

[wilbuzllf]

So much great new stuff coming to the Viper!

[ShaneoTheGreat]

I'm so glad to see such improvements.
However I'm having severe anxiety attacks waiting for the next Apache

Gr8 job ED, sorely needed update for the 16, now they can sniff out the truffles like the 18.

[VideoUser]

Superb - loving the attention the Viper is getting. But, Wags always makes it look so easy (or is it me!!!???). Super clear video.

[Dyson_Cyberdynesystems]

Finally!! Been really needing this ever since the tpod upgrade

[spacekraken]

I wish Persian Gulf map would get more expansions like these

[Vapor_]

Good morning. Is there a video explaining how to share the mark/waypoint(s) with your flight? Thanks Wags for all of your instructions and efforts so far... VERY helpful (understatement of the year lol)
