Hi, sorry to be off-topic…. but on both pictures from the cockpit, i can see that the ECM panel is empty, even the RWR is gone, what kind of ECM system do they have and where is it displayed ?
Spooky.

As for the RWR, I will try an answer from my knowledge: It ain’t gone, it is rather an MLU type of bigger RWR screen. E.g. seen on Belgian F-16 MLUs. Anyone correct me here…my edge in having collected info was rather on European F-16s and USAF ones.

Thanks crazytom,
But i see no screen at all …. this is what bugged me lol, i know that on the MLU’s the ecm panel looks different, that the RWR display is bigger, but … here i can’t see any display or panel relative to it … and the cockpit picture is from a block 52 + … maybe greece has another ecm system. I will try to find something about it.

now u got it all wrong…. about the absence of RWR…
In case u missed our weapon of mass distruction the mykonos super paradise… lol Jack Noris is Greek so we don’t need RWR we just think of them and we know where they are… lolAs u can see in the pic it’s bright new the plastics still smell and it’s before the installation of the system.

ECM suite ASPIS II is not installed yet to our Block 52 birds. The Block 52+ Advanced were delivered with the suite preinstalled, while the older Blocks 30/50 have the ASPIS I suite installed and it is partially upgraded to II features.

Thank you raptor.
Spooky.

Just to clarify this……the shown outside pic of the BLock 52+ is the same bird whose pit is shown one shot above?
That would mean the advanced Block52s feature basically the same (layout) cockpit the older Block 52s do? (No center MFD?)
That is cool IMHO since it means there is no need for a totally upgraded pit for those in the Aegean theatre, maybe some modifications here and there, but basically it applies? -
Yeap no center mfd.

Cool…Block 52+ free to fly. I’m a cockpit fanatic, I only fly birds with at least mostly correct cockpits lol. But I love the advanced Vipers!

I can count them out tomorrow cause it is 4 in the morning.
And, center “MFD” is called CPD - Center Pedestal Display system. 2 companies make them, each is a different design: Raytheon and Elbit. The first one has a contract for supplying these CPDs to all USAF/ANG; upgraded birds, while Elbit has supplied some; IAF’s birds - no pics of course of the Israel monitor operational in a plane, we are waiting pics of the ANG bird to popup in near future.
HAF also reviewed the Raytheon solution when planned to upgrade some blocks, but with a cost of approx 100k it was left aside atm.
Block 60 central screen has nothing to do with these 2 CPD monitors, it is another design, in fact all 3 mfd’s are the same type.

Actually Raptor, you are a bit wrong in both replies

Hi people! I did not want to start a thread about this and since it’s a bit related I’ll post here. Is there a simple way to make a plane use a certain cockpit? Like for example make F-14 use the F-16 cockpit. I tried to play with the editor but didn’t get any visible result. Perhaps I am missing something.

Waiting anxiously for the next update. Hope it comes sometime. Great work, keep it up!

hi Foobie,
will be next week. I just got the latest feedback of one of the persons I asked to test it. As I think it is fair to wait for each one to give his comments, I waited for a next update.
Expect, if RL restraints permit, an update next week.
Regards,

Any new news on this project?

I have a question regarding hud symbology colors.
I saw in few VTRs that HUD symbology was white (no its not a B/W VTR). I wonder which squadron or block version use white hud symbology.
Can pilot via adjusting DTE change his own hud color between white and green?Can someone give me brief information of hud colors, which squadrons/versions/blocks or countries use white hud symbology.
Besides white and green can it be orange like in DCS A-10 Night mode?
Thnx.

HUD is green. recordings from the HUD are displayed in white and used for debrief (HUD camera)

Yea I know you are right.
look also at 4:35-4:49
BUt this video confused me. But I think its also a HUD cam. For a second I thought that white hud is possible instead of default green where it cannot be changed or modified and best suitable for Mark-I eyeball to pick up the symbology
