How to dogfight in the Tomcat?
Stratos replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I use the Tomcat usually in "real" combat, so no 1vs1. I need to practice more to get properly on the corner speed and don't get lower than that cause the A is a slow reacter to thottle inputs. Do you guys recomend to have dead zones on the stick? I'm not planning to use the Phoenix as a dogfighting missile, but the Sparrow works pretty well, specially once the M version arrives, now I need to learn how to select VSL high. BTW is very rewarding to fight properly in the Tomcat, really enjoyable! -
How to dogfight in the Tomcat?
Stratos replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Yes, the corner speed is the key I think together with the use of the rudders during combat. The fact that the Sidewinder is a reliable missile helps a lot too. Problems I encountered at the moment, I still lose too much speed, sometimes I find myself at 275 kts or something like this, (maybe too much stick?), and I cannot use the dogfight mode with Sparrows, is that realistic? Not related to dogfighting but it seems the Phoenix was never carried during Mediterranean cruisers, why is that? Also, is not possible to use any kind of ILS to get back on the carrier? -

A bit of feedback from TK will be great, he's the game producer with the lowest hype in the entire industry. -

The canopy is already ejected when you use the current "eject" button. How I will improve avionics? I will give ground radar the hability to lock the targets the same way the A-A radar works now, the same will go for the Electro Optical Systems, those with the hability to zoom in and out. (selectable ground targets will be enough, no need to do the same for the currently non selectable buildings) And with that the hability to use CCRP mode. The hability to use NVG adding a filter that let the player see better at night. With that I will be happy -

Killerbee you think that means we will be able to eject from the plane and see an actual animation for it? Man If he can add more avionics for post 1982 plane, ejection and MP... What a big seller will this one be!! -

How to dogfight in the Tomcat?
Stratos replied to Stratos's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I'm now reading the DACT post, but basically is to keep speed between 325 and 425 knots, and use the rudder to help you turn right? What about the B and D versions? -
Wrench please check your PM. Thanks.

Ouch. My wife uses really special glass for her glasses and does not take more than a week to get them here in Spain, and we leave in a area without big cities, so I asume that someone living in Barcelona, Madrid or Valencia should get them in less than a week, so I hope it takes less time to get the glasses to you. Good luck with that! -

What's that? I use Sidewinders, but I need to point them towards the target. -
