First one for co-pilot waifus!

I tried Hellion as a space sim.
It's a fucking piece of shit, atm.

To get the bad taste out of my mouth, I want to pick up DCS. What is the most easily-accessible DCS title for those with crappy joysticks but a decent computer?
I own the A-10 sim, but I don't have time to read a 300 page manual right now.

Does US make their aircraft smaller than other countries? It would make sense as their military forces seem to be much smaller than Europeans for example.

The MiG 21 if you want clicky cockpits.

Flaming Cliffs 3 if you don't care.

Honestly the A-10 isn't that hard

>>169854031
I'm contemplating getting the $10 Su-27 DLC. Worth it?

And I tried a few training missions on the A-10 before abandoning it. I had a shittier computer back then admittedly, but it felt like too much information to take in in order to begin properly enjoying.

I'm hoping the Su-27 is somewhere between Memethunder and a hardcore sim like the A-10 was. I want to feel like a pilot, but I can't deal with 20 minute IRL checklists for startup. Not just yet.

>>169854031
If he has a crappy joystick it would be hard. There's a ton to bind.

>>169854510
>I'm hoping the Su-27 is somewhere between Memethunder and a hardcore sim like the A-10 was
It is, you have all the capabilities of the aircraft, they're just simplified, unlike in the A-10

>>169854510
Don't waste your money and buy the entire FC3 pack, it is fun and not so overwhelming for beginners but still very complex in the flight model and such. But if you ever get into DCS you'll buy FC3 anyway so just buy FC3 now.

>>169854510
It's worth it but you're better off picking up Flaming Cliffs instead of buying the FC3 aircraft individually

Flashpoint lacks Steel Beast's random chance/trigger system for it's scenarios but you can roughly approximate them. Right now I'm creating a series of mini-scenarios based on them.

Here's a planned six-hour version of Are They Attacking Here. The enemy force is always a Forward Detachment as opposed to the 1 in 3 chance of it being a Recon company or Advance Guard, which removes that element, but the ranges are approximate and you can choose not to call for reinforcements (By moving them to the exit marker near your deployment area)

The remnants of a Composite Panzer Kompanie counterattack East German positions at night where NATO's optics are far superior. Only the last hour will be "night" so this window is brief.

BTW, in the previous thread we were talking about the F35 and its usefulness.
Now that i think about it, that thing cant SEAD right ?
Therefore an F16 is actually better than a 35, of course minus the stealth part, but realistically the US has been at war against sandniggers for what almost 30 years now and its not like they have any serious AA threat.

P.S.
so what's USAF's designed SEAD plane ?

Well, first of all
Leatherneck is developing the mighty Tomcat for DCS World. They are even developing an ultra—smart, welfarer AI to seat at the WSO/RIO station.
So,
1) When is the Tomcat coming out?
2) Are they developing the Phantom II? They both are naval fighters that use a WSO/RIO station, and if the AI works fine, it could be implemented in the F—4 model. Also, modelling some different variants wouldn't be that difficult, because they all are pretty much the same. Maybe the Echo, Bravo/Juliet and Wild Weasel?

>>169887440

I feel like that data is bullshit.
It seems like some numbers are based off full fuel load while others are at 50% fuel or even none.

There is no way in fuck the Su-27S has a T/W of 1.26 with anything more than 15% fuel. Try like 80% fuel and full weapons in the Flanker and it still feels like a fat shit in DCS.

I know the Fulcrum with full fuel and weapons still had a T/W of 1.09 which is why that little nigga accelerates to ludicrous speed so fast.

I'd like a chart with either all empty, all full, or 50%. Actually one with all 3 would be lit. I guess if you know the numbers you could easily do it your self and maybe adjust for weapons as well.

Flankers are designed to have an excessive internal fuel tanks filling all empty space inside so that they don't need to carry externals. Kinda pointless to measure it by maximum fuel capacity if they almost never fly full.

I just picked up BMS, can not figure out how the fuck to bind controls. The UI is as dense as a thousand dying suns, and for profiles there's no obvious place with .inis or anything. I'll admit I don't exactly have a ton of experience in modding games from before 2000, but if someone could tell me exactly how I'm being retarded, I'd be grateful.

>>169891445

Tell that to everyone in DCS who insists on flying it at 100% fuel every flight and then wonder why they get splashed by the first missile shot because they can't break 900km/h and pull more than 4G's.

>>169895736
There should be a controls folder somewhere. I'm not entirely sure since it's been ages since I played BMS but there is somewhere to put profiles.

The in game control mapper is a pain

>>169897508
There's a folder that when the .key file is put in makes it show up in the in-game control mapper, but when I load it it just resets it to the nonsensical standard map (Joy button 1 bound to OSB 1, button 2 to OSB 2, etc).

Well, guys, sorry to cause a shitstorm, but I have a new problem. The game only recognizes one input device at a time, i.e. I can use my stick, my throttle, or my pedals, but not all 3, which is kind of a problem.

Just play DCS. BMS is ancient garbage with one half modeled airplane.

People will tell you the dynamic campaign makes it worth it but its honestly boring as fuck. You fly a mission against a target, and what you do might affect the war, might not.
Honestly at least DCS missions have great voice acting and stuff. The dynamic campaign is overrated as fuck. The first 20 missions are SEAD and DEAD over and over again.

The terraign is shit, the flight model is on rails, there is no damage model period, missiles are WAY overperforming. (Amraams hit every time, R77's are actually dangerous.), no PvP, no multiplayer servers and hosting co-op requires the grace of God

It's not worth going through that much shit just to play BMS so you can simulate being an F-16 pilot in the middle of a giant war where you are not important at all in the grand scheme of things. You spend half your time looking at a briefing that makes no fucking sense at all.

Just play DCS, it's way better.

I have been on a similar boat. Are you by any chance using a CH setup? Because otherwise I really have no idea how to help you.

Falcon BMS only recognizes one controller at a time when it comes to binding your shit IIRC, or something like that, so with CH stuff you have to use that mode where it emulates one controller with all 3 plugged in while binding your keys AND flying.

This is what most people mean when they criticize BMS for it's archaic fucking GUI. If anything else, skip it and stick to DCS, BoS/CLoD or any other sims you might play and have more fun in that.

They're IFVs, not tanks. They're meant to transport and support infantry, not engage enemy armor

>>169942623
What's the difference between an IFV and an APC with a decent weapon?

>>169941849
IFVs follow a different doctrine than tanks. An IFV brings infantrymen into a combat zone and then supports them as they assault. A tank is more meant to engage enemy armor and hard points itself, and is less optimized to work with infantry. Tanks also have big guns for engaging hard targets with.

>>169943128
The FAA needs to do something to fix the ATC system, but I don't think privatizing it would work. They need to both incentivize becoming a controller and ensure a uniform level of quality from one tower to the next.

Privatizing could certainly help with the incentives, but it's also a great way to get diminishing returns on the end product with companies competing to undercut one another, and that's not something that you want when lives are on the line

A light tank is meant to be fast and provide additional force to reconnaissance assets. Light weight also means it should be capable of crossing most, if not all obstacles on land. This includes being being amphibious, traversing swamp, muddy terrain, mountainous terrain, etc.
See: Sheridan, PT-76

An IFV is meant to carry troops into battle and support them in whatever mission they're undertaking, often equipped with heavy armor and weaponry that can deal with any threat on the battlefield.
See: BMP, M2 Series, Warrior, etc.

Some IFVs are modified to go fast and provide force to recon while still retaining the ability to carry troops, these are CFVs but still not light tanks.

See: M3 series

>>169943302
IFV due to the 30mm mounted.

A better definition than the one the CFE uses is whether the vehicle is meant to transport and support infantry, or support tanks (with transported infantry). IFVs perform the latter, APCs the former.

>>169948393
They've been more or less superseded by the helicopter.

Not really, nor are medium or heavy tanks. The MBT has taken over all those roles by being both fast and enormous with a big gun to boot.

Though, the Stryker MGS and vehicles like it are an interesting development. It's like a return of the assault guns and tank destroyers of WW2

>>169948393
IFVs are, and only because the sandnogs didn't have ATGMs at the time. Look at what those Lebanese Tuskan raiders did to the Israeli Memekava.

>>169949935

>>169949935 is more correct than >>169949752

Light Tanks are still a thing, but various nations have found that wheels are better than tracks for these vehicles. In Africa however, wheels have always been preferred over tracks.
Light tanks have just been rebranded. They are now "Mobile Guns", like the Stryker MGS or 2S25.

Their relationship to helicopters is not that heloes replaced them, but rather they should be light enough so that helicopters can deploy them.

Now you might think, "Wait, so can the Wiesel and BMD series. Does that make them light tanks?"

Not really. The Wiesel is a tankette, which is about the size of a car and exists solely to transport weapons too heavy for infantry (even crew served) to slug around. In maybe a decade or so you'll see even the Wiesel become replaced by UGVs.

BMDs on the other hand are still IFVs. They can deal with most threats short of heavy MBTs and are meant to transport/support infantry. These too may eventually be replaced by UGVs.

keep groups together near their leaders to lower the cost for command points, give only important orders to avoid spending alot of command points, some complex and difficult-to-relay orders, such as rotating to a direction, cost a fuckton. so avoid them.

Just avoid walking around the open in general during combat, seek cover. If you're defending from the enemy leave your troops stationary in the campaign-map for two turns and they will fortify and dig trenches, make sure to deploy troops on tiles where they can entrench, because they can't entrench everywhere (this is in the combat-level map)

tldr because i know you're a nigger who won't bother reading through it:

soviet cannons were crude, poorly manufactured, ineffective at any extended range. problems weren't fixed until they purchased western manufacturing equipment. even then soviet doctrine of shitting out as much junk as possible meant they weren't manufactured to western standards and suffered from numerous problems like a short barrel life, warping, and heavy vibrations

penetrators were gimped by autloader compactness requirements and had pathetic performance. the best soviet era round, "mango", has penetration equivalent to nato 105mm sabots

If that's the campaign I think it is, you as Germans aren't supposed to attack at all. You're supposed to make contact, inflict casualties, and then withdraw and let their tanks chase after you until they run out of gas. Then you zerg rush them from all sides and slaughter the commies before their supply trucks catch up.

It's just a series of ambushes, and the only time you actively attack them is to contest flags.

Okay guys this just happened.
Third flight in my flight school. METAR reported wind at 06 knots, ok good. 10 minutes into the flight local ATIS reports 20+ knot winds and my CFI decides to head back, as soon as I gave him controls I started getting nauseous. Why did I start getting nauseous? My other flights were fine. The instructors on the ground told me it was because of the sense of no control + the turbulence. How does one overcome this? They said I'll get used to it. Any tips ?

So a MiG-29++++++++ instead of the Su-27++++++++

>>169993306

Probably just a once off. Here's some tips though:

- Get air on your face the second you start feeling like you even might start to feel unwell

- If you're in the same situation again, as in, someone else is doing the flying, keep your head up and your eyes to the horizon

- An overfull stomach is bad, an empty stomach is worse - have some kind of simple breakfast before flying if it's a crack of dawn lesson

- Don't overthink it. It probably won't happen again. If it does happen again, it probably won't happen forever. But if you dwell on it and get focused on it, you'll talk yourself into being sick.

That's the mongol way. Look at China now... Same thing. Copying and stealing from left and right.
