The definitive guide to DCS: F-14B LANTIRN, no others need apply. Well done!

[pogo]

I was listening to a podcast with an ex F-14 pilot and an ex-F-14 RIO.
The pilot mentioned that he and his RIO had been able to get the F-14 with a LANTIRN pod and 4 GBU's up to Mach 2+ because they wanted to see if they could get 1, 000mph on the ground speed indicator.

For the first time in my life I'll be able to understand old F-14 LANTIRN pod videos.

Just launched, Enjoy my content, and feel like giving back?
For those of you Bombcat pilots out there! A Complete guide to using the LANTIRN pod for laser guided bombing, This is a blast to do in multi-crew!
As a little update, Heatblur have added the basic LANTIRN Section to the manual now, the only significant change from the pre-release version is the LANTIRN warm up time is now 8 mins, rather than the 5 i experienced in this build.

FYI make sure to bind "LANTIRN MODE A/G" and toggle it once the pod is up otherwise you will not be able to designate with trigger full action. It is mentioned in the video only briefly and easy to miss and it wont work without this step!

I've been following your tutorials for a while now on multiple types. I can confidently say, you are a natural and arguably the leader in online FS operational instruction. Thanks Red!

21:44 F-14 dropping a bomb on that mig-19 to the right is pretty representative of the releases this month lol

[jakubdabrowski]

Excellent work! I have created a few missions in editor to learn LANTIRN myself, but I also learnt some useful tricks from you. After operating modern pods with F-16 and F/A-18, it's nice to familiarize with some older equipment.

Thank you, Sir! The first dedicated vid on the LANTIRN pod.

Love your tutorials mate, keep up the great work!

You have a voice perfect for nature shows.

Jester can use it now and he's pretty good at it all things considered. Being able to have him slave to a F10 Map mark point is a friggin lifesaver.

[komsomolac]

You should be making audio books, mate. Your English is a joy to listen to.

Fantasic video Red Kite. Explained clearly covering all aspects. Good work buddy 👏

[Dlz]

Top notch tutorials as always RK, Thanks! HB's only mistake with this module was not giving it to you sooner!

[murphnturph]

This is so well done. Seriously. Amazing work.

[Fercyful]

Thanks for doing this! Tomorrow full F-14 day!!

I wonder how they managed to keep such a high resolution textures in whole cockpit. As a vfx guy, I know how much of megapixels it requires to cover space with such details. It is 32k or more of textures ready to be zoomed in. Good old DX9 still handles it, unbelievable.

This video is a tremendous help for fresh RIOs. Very much appreciated!
