This is a brief introduction / tutorial for the freeware F-14D Tomcat update version 2.10 which will introduce Tacpack functionalities. This was an unscripted demo, so there are mistakes...should have been A/A only, but then I also added a bried A/G and RWR demo.
A couple of inaccuracies I noted watching the video:
- I say the AIM-54 range is OVERestimaed in Tacpack 1.4.0.9, but I mean underestimated. Performance of the missile is correct - but range calculations do not take in account the lofted trajectory. You can hit targets at 50Nm+ with the Phoenix. So it is underestimated in the displays only - this is a Tacpack bug and will be fixed...
- I say the two bombs hit the same spot because they were laser guided...again, incorrect. The second bomb falls, farther, just noticed it. Maybe it was dropped too late. Anyway A/S interface will also provide TTR indications in future.
- Of course it is not correct that you should shoot between Rmax and Rne.... you should shoot within Rmax, better if within Rne and before Rmin....
I am sure there are other things too...but should be OK as an introductory video.
