A little question? What does the VDI do? Whats it for?

 

To add on to what USAFMTL's explanation (ILS/TCS);

 

Another function of the VDI is that it displays targeting data to the pilot when the RIO has a target locked up in Single Target Track mode, displaying the radar range selected, weapon selected, the target's orientation vertically to the F-14, an ASE circle, and the target's range on a solid scale as well as a Break-X when the target falls inside minimum range of the selected weapon; but if you're that close, you'd best not be looking down at the VDI for target info!. Pics/functionality is found in the 01-F14AAA-1 (F-14A) or AAP-1 (F-14B) manual.

 

In the new release, all 3 of these modes are at least partially modeled (TCS, as has been stated, is a forward camera, but both ILS and most of the targeting nomenclature is there). I friggin' love this mod. :drinks:

Thanks for these Great aircraft.. Two questions though...

 

Is there going to be a new F-14D or do we have to settle with Ravenclaw007's mod on this one?

 

I couldn't find these on the column5 site...
