Hornets will be upgraded with AESAThat article is 2 years old. The last 4 USMC hornet squadrons are all due to complete transition to F-35B within a few years. I believe the plan is that by 2025 all US legacy hornets will be retired. Only the E/F/G models will carry on. (Which already have AESA)

Hi, Guys,
I know the Legacy was on the Hornet, I didnāt realize the Marines were retiring them so soon.
Thatās one reason the Mafia wants to give some love to the Rhino and The Panther. Brother Smartaxe set up the F-35 fm, and the BMS F-35 is fun. BTW, check out his vids-
Weāre also looking at the F-14, A-6 and even the F-4 , both cockpit and fm. Right now in the Nevada theater we have all them to work with. The Tomcat and Intruder are using the Mod 2 āMafiaā pit. You can do that it the F-35, too, but Iām hoping we can tweak the Stock pit. Itās pretty close as is. -
Hello, All,
Hereās todayās updateā¦
Brother Smartaxe is working on a F-35 cockpit project, meanwhile Iām working on something he sent me-how to put your favorite jet in you favorite theater.
Now itās time for me to embarrass my Brother-In-Arms. Tonight I called him the Tech Brains of the Mafia , and I meant it. Iām really grateful to be working with (for ? ) him. -

Hi, J,
Everything our group the Fighters Mafia produces is available for your enjoyment. Some theaters have our projects already built in . Plus, this thread has been a ājournalā of the changes. Or, I invite you to check out the Mafia Files ( see the Mediafile in my Signature). I continually update the Fighters Manual included there as new things appear.
And, finally, donāt be shy about asking questions here!
BTW: In the Manual youāll find a way to put the Mafia F-18 cockpit in your jet. So, if you want a fully interactive 'pit, you can have one right now. -
Iād like the Groupās opinion on somethingā¦
In the next couple of weeks ( less then 3-4 ) The Mafia is going to have some new stuff for you. I got to thinking how best to present the information in the Manual, so I seeking your preferencesā¦
All the files like acdata, etc., we produce have to be in one zip, where the Devs can get it quickly.
The question is the Fighters Manual. I either keep rewriting it, which is becoming a bit problematic, OR start making appendixās , each in itās own zip.
Any preference? -
Hereās one more update for todayā¦
As written previously, one the Mafiaās early projects was to suggest a HOTAS set up with a āHornet Feelā. Iāve been trying a new one Iām liking, so I thought Iād share it.
The Hornet has a Sensor Control Switch that kind of combines the TMS and DMS. A new suggestion is, using the Warthog as an exampleā¦
Hat 2- 4 way (unshifted/shifted)
UP- TMS up/DMS up
right- DMS right/TMS right
down- DMS down/TMS down
left - DMS left/TMS left.
TMS up and down are presented this way for those who donāt want Undesignate (TMS down) on the stick pinky, and Designate(TMS up) on the cursor press, as in the RL Hornet. Personally, on the Warthog I prefer TMS up on Hat 2, as opposed to on cursor press. I get frequent ācursor creepā when designating on that set up.
At the same time,
Hat 3-
UP- cursor enable
right-uncage
down- cursor zero
left-rdr snowplow
With your views-of-choice as shifted.
Now that Iām getting past muscle memory, Iām liking this, even in the Viper. -
when russia enters any scenario, the video that plays will continuously play over and over and over and over and over.

Hi, F,
You may want to repost this to the technical support thread, or in the general section below. -
is there any sound mod? engines, cockpit, etc?

In what, Seb? I can report the Mafia Files are built into both Taiwan and VietNam, and Nevada as previously mentioned.

Hi, Seb,
I do have some sounds somewhere in the depths of my pc, Iāll work on thatā¦
All,
In a few days I hope to complete a little side project- getting WDP to list the new Taiwan and Viet Nam theaters.
While Iām at it, I want to āshow some loveā to people like Chuckles,Jackal,Brother Smartaxe,and the others who have produced these other theaters. Iāve long been a fan of Korea2012, but for some reason never really explored the others.
I am now.
Itās a feeling of making BMS feel new for me. New places to fly , new situations, and new jets. Last night I was ābeta testingā a Kuwait TE for a friend, and I got to fly a F-117,Tornado, and even B-1ās and B-2ās! For the " purists", the Viper and Hornet are there , and/or can be added with MC . To give an honest critique, some of the visuals like wing modeling and cockpits are WIP. Some of the pitās are default, some are Viper 'pits. Plus, Iāve already experimented with installing the Mafia Hornet pit in the jets , and it works. -

Hi, Seb,
I found some sounds that FoxBMS gave me, and Iām looking for others I had but canāt find. I may have put them in 4.34 and not saved them separately. Iāll keep looking.
Also, Iāve realized that Discord links expire after 7 days. Sorry for anyone reaching out. Thereās a new link in my signature. -
