Santa's wishlist for BMS
-
@FALCAS-0 only thing navy is the planes.
-
@Geraki not avaliable on US Block 40, 42, 50, and 52 aircraft.
-
@cougar56th yes but it is available in HAF,THK,POLISH ,IAF and MLU 5 and above software it could be a very nice avionics addon for variants with new graphic engine. for BMS 4.38 via avionics configuration tool!
-
@Geraki I agree
-
ECHO-19 like collaboration for even more realistic Internal and external sounds for F-16
-
motion
-
I’m loving 4.37 but would love better support for triple screens (ie less distortion)
-
@Geraki
“Internal sounds” (important for realism and immersion) : What people don’t understand (especially if they newer flew in a fighter jet) is that what they hears on videos is NOT what the pilot hears.
This is a sound recorded from a plastic/metallic GP PRO that is not “wearing” (covered by) an helmet.A better way to understand it to listen the audio loop of the intercom rather than pure camera recording :
Actual physic reality of pilot’s audio perception … or a kind of mix of both :
Also, what ppl don’t (or don’t want to) understand … what pilot hears in cockpit is more the pulsed air from the aircond system (ECS) and the airflow on canopy than the engine itself which is almost inaudible.
Please guys (3rd party Dev or even some internal Dev) … for the L.O.V.E. of the hardcore simulation, stop calling things “realism mod” when you don’t know what “realistic” really really is.
…
About external … BMS do not simulator the Doppler effect and sound attenuation with distance correctly. It is almost impossible to enhance the external sound and not possible to tune them without scrubbing some internal results.
Needs a new external sounds system first. If I set engine external sounds in a nice way for external views, inside cockpit, you will hear other a/c up to 10Nm * … and will mute suddenly in an extremely unrealistic way.- IRL it is no more than few meters.
Can you hear other jet on this video ? (direct cam recording) :
… do you think the pilot can ?
Just pay attention here, do we hear something from the leader while it is only few meters away (no sound change at 1:37 when leader’s AB goes off) ?
… no much more here :
We can only hear a difference a little bit when leader releases the breaks.…
An interesting one :
We definitively here something when wingman is crossing the flight path of the leader … Do you think we hear the leader’s engine ? … nope.
What we hear it the engine airflow striking the canopy : -
Pilot ramp start animation while ramp start

This is a sound recorded from a plastic/metallic GP PRO that is no wearing an helmet…This!!! Even in light general aviation airplanes we have this. We wear nice noise cancelling and passive hearing protection headsets to block out as much of the nosie that will damage your hearing, which is pretty damaged for me since one of my jobs I had the headsets off a lot.
I also remember the first time I heard a jet in the air, it happened to be an F-16 too. I was flying a glider at about 3000’ and heard the viper and started to panic because I figured if I could hear him he had to be close. Since the airport I flew at was under a MOA, I had a few close encounters with them before in airplanes but never heard them. I look all around in the glider don’t see anything and finally look up and see the F-16 about 5000’ above me, no danger at all. Gliders with no engine nosie and just air on the canopy are the only aircraft I’ve flown that I can hear other aircraft with any reliability and not need hearing protection to block out as much of the nosie as possible.

MFD Moving map
F-16D shared cockpit for training missions
Auto-GCAS -
The latest F-16V(block 70/72) Viper. Would be perfect for more modern missions with so many loadouts and features. Also the F-35A Lightning II mod that is still in development.

I wish an old school F-16A very dirty…slick bombs, apg-66, only sidewinders

Yeah! Real old-school flying.

@tiag
+1 you’re not the only one. I’ve tried to find some info on stores management display and equivalent of ICP keypad located on left console. You can find glimpse of S-M display on old promo videos. I’ve made some screenies. Unfortunately, aside from picture of said keypad and Function knob I couldn’t find any useful data.
I guess one may ask on f-16.net, such an old system shouldn’t be that secret. -
I am doing currently 1984 campaign in BalkansL theater. Modified F-16C block 25 with editor to have only 1984 weapons. It gets kind of boring a bit. Sparrows, Sidewinder, Mav, bombs and that’s it.
I thought it would be better but tis a bit boring IMO. Makes you appreciate the monster USAF block 50 I suppose my fav F-16. CFT block 70 no, too heavy… -
@Hubert3000
Stop using sparrows and HSD 23 on your RWR should give you some shiver -
I thought the block 25 had Sparrow in '84 that’s the info I’ve seen. No? Yes 2 Floggers or Fulcrums is a handful lol. Mig-29A of course.

Without the 100% accurate navigation, only INS, modeled INS drifting. No data link with accurate cockpit. My wet dream…
-
There have been sources over the years but they are most likely wrong. People get confused by the word “provisions”. Sparrow wasn’t test flown and certified on the C until 1989 according to Lockheed M. F-16A ADF in 1989 really was the first.
Don’t let that stop you using it though.
