*** Posted by FAULKEN *** Thank you for the quick response, but..... I guess what I'm really asking is this: The HUD symbology for Steerpoints is a small diamond, and what I would like to know is if a similar type of symbol (i.e. a Target Designation, TD box )is displayed on the HUD of the real jet for a locked ground target while in CCIP mode?

*** Posted by FAULKEN *** Thanks Tiger OK time to brush up on those Math skills....If an Aim-120 leaves the F-16's furthest most rail at 2:30 pm while the F-16 is traveling at 517 nm/h, and reaches a top cruising speed of Mach 2.14 in 21 seconds. How long will it take it the 120 to hit a Mig-27 located 28 miles from the F-16 at the time of ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** Hi Tiger, I been trying to reach you but no luck. You can contact me now by ICQ if you want. I have'nt talked to you for a while you must be busy. I tried the FOC but no luck. My ICQ No 40463992 it's cool to talk with and it will let me know when your on the net. Also RUN kindly made the chat section so we can talk ...

*** Posted by TIGER *** [Hi, I cannot tell you the real distance when it goes active because it's classified I dont know, sorry, but the AMRAAM (so they say) has a maximum kill range of 31 miles. I would judge it to be that kind of distance so the pilot does'nt have to hang around. You see the AMRAAM is a ''Fire & Forget'' missle, which ...

*** Posted by run *** Hi You get used to it after a while. Then it's actually nicer than a conventional stick. run [Hmm..I am surprised at this, with my stick it moves at least 2.5 inches in all directions, does this not make the F-16 difficult to handle becuase it must be very sensitive with so little movement in the stick, basically I think ...

*** Posted by FAULKEN *** I have been waiting because I was unclear as to when the seeker head went active and wanted to ensure a good kill on the bandit. Is it a set distance from the target, like say 10nm or is it truely 1/4 the distance from the time it leaves the rail?? [Hi Faulken, Why are you waiting until the missle hit's the target? ...

*** Posted by Rapier *** Hi Faulken, Why are you waiting until the missle hit's the target? When you get lock, fire and break away with some chaff and lock up another target. The AIM120 is a fantastic missle it has an impressive hit ratio. It will active about 1/4 of the distance to target after it is launched. I think they have modeled this

*** Posted by Rapier *** Hello Faulken, The weapons delivery system in F4 is very similar to the real jet apart from some points. Firstly I want to point out what is missing in F4 as opposed to the real F-16. Firstly, in the real jet the pilot can simulate a weapons delivery check and other checks to make sure his weapons and systems are ...
