zmatt Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I've started to fly the Viper a lot more lately and I'm having a great time with it. The MF Vipers are killers. One thing I'm trying to get used to is the hud, since most of the instrumentation in a glass cockpit is replaced by MFDs, a lot of that info mach number, radar altitude etc is on the hud. I've been able to figure out a few through trial and error, but I was wondering if someone could point me to a diagram of the F-16's HUD symbology.

Crusader Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Which TMF Vipers are you flying ? The TMF Vipers included with DS and NF4 mods have completly overhauled HUDs and avionics ...
Crusader Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 quick guide... the default stuff should be clear.. guncross, left airspeed scale ( with current G readout on top), right altitude scale the left datablock shows, top to bottom : - master arm status - aircraft Mach - max G readout - weapon mode: LCOS,MSLS, STRF, CCIP etc the right datablock, top to bottom : - target range in NM ( xxx if no radar lock) - target closure speed in knots (xxxx if no radar lock ) - range to waypoint and waypoint # (014006 = 14 nm to wp 6) - radar altitude in feet thats what you see in the A2A mode screenie ... in MSLS ( missiles, short range) mode, you get a seeker FOV circle... in NAV mode, the 2nd line of the right datablock shows 00: 00 , thats a fixed readout.. the real jet has time to go to next waypoint displayed.
zmatt Posted April 25, 2009 Author Posted April 25, 2009 Thanks, this will really help out. I was referring to the Block 1 and Block 10 MF F-16s. Why didn't MF make an F-16C?
Crusader Posted April 25, 2009 Posted April 25, 2009 no time but we have a WiP C kite ... since 2 years or so :D I lost my WiP files a couple times Thats how the radar looks (or looked - I think I have a backup somewhere)
