The "second dude" in the F-14 sat in the front, as this aircraft weapon system was built around the AWG-9 and the RIO. The guy in front handled the flying part to take a little bit of workload off of the primary crew member in BVR engagements.

It`s great that you been releasing these videos for past 2-3 months so we can gradually familiarise with the systems. Trying to understand them all right after the release would be overwhelming. It is apparent that a successful multicrew play requires both pilot and RIO being knowledgeable in their trade. Wow, so much to learn. F-14 will keep players busy for a long time after release.

HELLO JABBEEEEEEEERS Don't forget the walkman next time :P well look at the pilot's head at 24:22

Your videos are a godsend to us new RIO operators. Thank you a ton!

I never knew how little a radar really saw. Before i started learning the RIO seat i was so frustrated how Jester or my human RIO had problems finding and tracking multiple targets because i thought the thing sees everything in front of it. Turns out it sees a small slice at a time and can only track a fraction of targets that are in the front hemisphere at the same time. And even then you have to hope it isnt in the notch or ZD filters 😂

That was an excellent tutorial. Perfect balance of technicality and practicality. Thanks for taking the time to make it

I think it's going to take a long time to become proficient at it, but it doesn't seem to bad. As long as you have the modes mapped and memorised it should be easy enough to switch between depending on what the target is doing. Although it's not an F-15 where you lock up 4 targets at once and smash Weapon Fire remember that as an RIO you don't have to worry about flying and dodgin missiles, your entire focus is the radar screen. It's gonna be great and I think good teams will become better than Jester AI.

Jabbers you are a beast how can you make so much content so fast you are golden man.

Oh, now I understand why I could not lock the target while in PD Search with the HCU in DDD . Great video, thank you !!

All I need is more time in the RIO seat. I have the basics down and this video helped a great deal. But I am having issues locking the target. Is hooking essentially locking the target? I was having trouble last night being able to lock targets, also finding them all together. I guess I'll just use PD more first, then switch according to the situation?

Jabbers would love it if you would go over your TM Warthog Joy/Throttle settings for RIO.

Awesome tutorials, thank you! Can you explain a bit the connection between the pilot and the rio? What are the pilots tasks in weapon selection, tgt aquiring and launching? Is the pilot able to do all this even without the rio? Is the rio able to fire? In the real aircraft, who decides which weapon is used?

The pilot can't do the stuff shown in the video. The pilot only has short range automatic lock on modes that only work at very close distance. The RIO is able to fire, which Jabbers does in the video multiple times (the red button to the left).

What an absolutely fantastic video! Great job and thank you so much! I'm wondering, once you've fired your missile, are you free to lock on to other targets or do you have to keep it locked until splash?

RIO radar operation has been the lurking elephant in the room for me when it comes to the F-14B release, and I need all the help I can get. A more layman's terms approach to interpreting the DDD and when/when-not to use Pulse and Pulse Dopp would be MUCH appreciated. Further - when it comes to the stick - how do you recommend those of us without a 2-stage trigger handle that?

@Jabbers

5 жыл бұрын

2 buttons ;) 1 to move the cursor 1 to select... so like trigger/weapons release maybe.

When using TWS, do you have to do anything specific to track the enemy planes? Or does it automatically select them as targets and the you hook them and say must attack or to not attack?

GREAT BALLS OF FIIIRRrre!

Wtf hahaha that famous couple cracked me up and I had to explain myself in the office!

I now understand why my RIO calls the AWG9 all sorts of insults

Can we get a video showing the attack cues the pilot gets when using radar and missiles BVR?

One thing I didnt understand was making targets as friend/foe, since I didnt see you explaining IFF. However on the last part of the video you perform the IFF then proceed to mark the target as enemy. So, the idea is that for all targets we lock, check iff then mark as friend/foe? This will be our main work load? Is there a way for it to mark targets as friend or foe by itself? What about data link? Do we get friend/foe from friendly aircraft RIOs markings? Does it share with the F-18? Thanks

Its complicated. Dont know about the F14 specifically but generally there is Mode 1, 2, 3, and 4 and now sometimes 5 IFF. Mode 3C is the normal ATC transponder squawk code with altitude. Mode 1 will be usually ##00 and all jets in a package will be the same. Mode 2 is used also and is ####, like M3. So you can use any combination of these to interrogate a contact. The ROE may be something like you need Lack of Friendly (LOF) AND Presence of Enemy (POE) indications to declare Hostile. An incorrect or - response to a M1, M2, M3 or M4 interrogation or combination of them can be considered LOF. Ex: "LOF = -M2CC" (CC means Correct Code). POE is a little more complicated and a lot of it is classified.

@aussiegta8267

@@MattH-wg7ou Some what correct. M3 is used by ATC as you stated, Mode 4 is an encrypted code that is changed daily. It is this code that you are interrogating. An incorrect response, or none response will leave you with the assumption that it is enemy. Be aware however, civilian traffic will also not respond and will give the impression as being enemy, so know the sky you're in.

Great video. Using all your tutorials for preparation. :) Can one of your next videos be one when you are in an dynamic fight with other real players. Scenario: 2 vs 2 or 3 vs 3. / Starting distance 100 miles / Enemy players must be very good MP players. - Fight is along the coast. So bandits can choose fighting feet wet or in the hills. - Enemy's are free to choose how to engage you and defend you. - Enemy's and you are free in weapons choice. - Enemy flight's can't be mixed. - Multiple runs against different types. (Against F/A-18C, SU-27, F-15) - you must have human RIO - Both sides must give 100% This is because i would like to see the decision speed of a good pilot and RIO that are knowledgeable of the systems, against other good MP pilots flying other aircraft. See all what you have thought us in an fast phased fight from BVR to the merge.

Hey jabbers... what about some tactics? Especially reg. flying in chaotic MP environments (birds hugging the ground everywhere, a few at 15000 ft.. AWACS mentioning a bird which is far away and ignoring the one which is a few miles behind you. These are environments in which both sides need to conquer airbases. When I'm up against agile fighters... things go way too fast to with lots of birds sneaking behind me and getting the kill. If the target notches, do I switch to Pulse and then how am I going to fire my Phoenixes at various targets if I can focus only on one? Should I fire the one Phoenix, disengange... and search for other ones? Sometimes it's confusing with many stuff happening around you at the same time. In a F-16, seems like no problem.

Great video. You showed how all that works. But one problem, can't convert what you showed into what is in the game. Like half track movement to lock. Where is that in adjust controls?

@cstuff100

2 жыл бұрын

If they notch while the missile is out and the missile has not activated its onboard radar then it will lose track. The missile indicates onboard radar lock (pitbull) when the countdown timer next to the target on the TID begins blinking. Phoenix missiles can usually lock a target themselves within approximately 16 seconds until impact. The Rio needs to tell the pilot what to do, speed up or turn, to keep them out of the notch (hook targets to watch their velocity and stay out of the notch velocity). When using TWS and you want a better guarantee keeping a single lock, you'll need to Hook them on the TID then switch to PD-STT then to Pulse-STT as seen in the video near the end 23:00. Once the TID countdown timer begins to blink you can break. Be mindful that this is not a guaranteed hit; you'll need to confirm the kill or re-evaluate to possibly re-engage.

You use TS for comms? So the intercom switch kinda is cosmetic only? I would imagine SRS support the intercom in the near future?
