Bearing and Range to System Point of Interest (SPI).

1.8.7.2.18 Bearing and Range to System Point of Interest (SPI). In any GM mode, location of the SPI is provided in two
digital formats on the MFD. If the mode-selectable bullseye is not selected, the location of the SPI relative to the system STP is
displayed above the backup steering symbol (flying W) on the MFD. If the mode-selectable bullseye has been selected, the
flying W is replaced by ownship bullseye symbology, the same as on A-A FCR displays. Location of the SPI is then displayed
relative to the bullseye. In either case, location of the SPI relative to ownship is also displayed to the right of the flying W or
ownship bullseye symbology (Figure 1-127).I believe BMS is currently lacking the ownship bullseye symbology in the AG MFD formats, as well as the location of the SPI relative to the ownship position.

TO-BMS1F-16CM-1 p94, FCR in A-G modes:
In 4.33 this may vary according to block, with newer blocks always
displaying the flight director symbol, even with BULLSEYE mode selected. -
In my defence, this is from a newer block
And I am flying the block 40 F110 GE 100, which appears to be a newer block as far as BMS is concerned?
I couldnt find that as a setting on the Avionics configurator, either.

It’s not in there yet; it will hopefully arrive with Update 1.
It’s yet another example of how challenging it is to model realism with the F-16, due to countless variations.

While Im waiting, might I suggest that update 1 also make that the default behavior?

Possibly the database could differentiate between the block 40 it currently has, and CCIP block 40s? FWIW, I think you guys are doing a fantastic job of modeling a LOT of variations on the basic F-16. This for me was probably one of the least expected parts of 4.33, was having avionics differences between blocks.

Perhaps this could be considered for 4.34 Update 1? Specifically, CCIP aircraft displaying adjacent to the bullseye position of ownship, the BRAA to the SPI from ownship position.
