Using FLIR
-
They do not “lost” this, they (devs) removed it because it was not realistic, and IMO not pretty at all.
You most probably were looking for USAF pictures… lol USAF abandoned the NVP pod of LANTIRN after the Gulf war, since they upgraded their war strategy and from low & fast went high & away… It is not that these missions weren’t effective, just the(ir) technology (ehh = money + new work positions) should be updated with new $$$.
HAF, THK & IAF fly with NVP’s (plus a TGP) normally, you should wide your google searches with that words too.
I know it was unreal because you could not move the FLIR cam. as in RL and also the FOV settings did not have RL limitations, etc. But it could be improved. I guess this never will be in BMS4 again. Only question to me anybody ever set well accordingly the TFR capability is DB?

So does IFF.

What do you mean? How TFR is messed with the DB?

What do you mean? How TFR is messed with the DB?One of modeling limitation of Falcon was that availability of TFR capability which is defined by the radar. So even you did not carried LGB + pods TFR was available. This still exist.

As far as I remember rasterizing IIR picture on the HUD was a feature of FalconAF, not Falcon 4.0. Because BMS is developed from Falcon 4.0 it is not present.
Also the specification for the Block 40 included the wide HUD because if you’re going to put an image for navigation on the HUD it better not look like a vertical-filmed cell phone video. The original HUD technology in block 30, 40, 50 days was not so capable and equipment capable of projecting a video image was expensive. I think the original B50 HUD could do raster video but probably not nearly as well on the WAR HUD as on the WAC HUD and certainly not to the desired FOV for practical use.

Yeap, but I bet this fix is less than 10 lines of code.

I don’t think these are from AF…

HAF, THK and IAF all fly the FLIR on the classic HUD’s. Only exception are the latest THK Block 50+ Advanced which have the WAR HUD.
The WAR HUD used a holographic approach for displaying the FLIR picture and on a wider area, which is the best and 1:1 according and to the FLIR FOV. The “classic” HUD was updated later on with a special chemical coating sprayed from the internal side in order to properly reflect the green color of the FLIR image. Only effect due to the smaller FOV of the classic HUD itself is that it will automatically reduce the displayed data font size when you turn-on the HUD FLIR (separate from the MFD FLIR) in order to keep the FLIR FOV image on the HUD to the proper 1:1 ratio.

IIR on the HUD was a gift from eRazor, it could be adjusted for position as required too.

Yes, I did. Thx. the info.

3 to 4 weeks is longer for some than others
