F-15A Eagle

The sweet taste of murican freedom

Flight performance that makes you question energy conservation, enough ammo to vaporize a city block, yeah those MiG-21...I mean 29s dont stand a chance.

Start up procedure

Then repeat for the Right engine there's no real order to it as I haven't figured that out, the intakes will depress when each engine is started as an indicator for whether both engines are on. Ofcourse you can skip the start up procedure by just spawning in above the ground.

Features a really detailed interrior

RWR from @Ku and HuD and weapons screen from @Whillis just added a gun lead pipper on the HuD for convenience still useless since the game already has one that just never goes away.

● The switches under HuD and Set in the cockpit are Hud toggle and Activate4 (Hud color) respectively
● P Brake just enables brakes
● And FlapsDown drops the flaps (flaps are automated for landing and takeoff)
● Activate2 for Canopy open

Weapons screen indicates ammo count for guns and missiles:

  1. Missiles need to be named either AIM-7M or AIM-9M for them to display mind the caps.
  2. Maximum of 4 of each missile.
  3. Left it clean ill post a combat loadout version when I get the time.

Flight performance

● To give a brief explanation, lines (Diagonal and curved lines) indicate the Jets max performance they are labeled so I won't be too specific you get your best turn rate at the peak of the curve normally around 600-700km/h.
● you get better performance at lower fuel loads default fuel load is like ~50%.

These curves just about what to expect from the jet at low altitudes (i couldn't be bothered to model high altitude performance because of how engine thrust works in SP) new things added to the FCS.

  1. I decided to model a G-limiter of sorts on my FTs now so it should be pretty hard to get to 10Gs (it can but at very specific conditions)
  2. Due to said G limiter the plane compresses like a brick so throttle control is mandatory or you'll be stuck at +1300km/h unable to slow down if you stay in A/B.
  3. The Thrust on this thing is very high enough to accelerate in a 9G turn easily the draw back is that the consumption is also equally as high so watch your fuel load.
