DCS VR 4K | F-15E Strike Eagle | Burning Skies Training | Practicing A2A in the Strike Eagle

I'm in the Strike Eagle, loaded up with AMRAAMs and am flying on the Burning Skies PVE Training Server for the first time. Join me as I figure out how this works and practice some of what I have learned around Air to Air combate in the Strike Eagle (which isn't much to be honest).

Little grasshopper, the M to the right of the count down does not mean it is in medium PRF. Your radar was in high the whole time. The M just means the missile is active.

Hmm, thanks. I was basing this upon the manual for the Strike Eagle. If you know this to be factually incorrect, you should contact Baltic Dragon and let him know. I know that my radar was in High PRF. I was referring to the countdown for the AMRAAM going active. I had extrapolated from the text which I quote below that the missile will show either H or M once it goes active after the guided flight from the Strike Eagle. The quote below shows that it displays an M or H if it's going to immediately go active upon launch based upon which PRF it uses. I asked on the Razbam discord just now. I'll let ya know what I hear.. Perhaps the time has come for this young grasshopper to snatch the pebble from your hand.. :) Manual version: 2023-12-12 Page: 380 "PRELAUNCH TTA / TTI: the TTA (time to active) is the predicted missile time of flight to range at which the priority AIM-120 goes active. It is constantly updated depending on many different factors. The TTI (time to intercept) is the predicted time of flight between the missile going active and hitting the target. When the target is in missile active range, TTI is displayed with M or H prefix to indicate that the missile will enter its active phase (MPRF or HPRF) immediately after launch."

Yep, I (and the manual) was right. Here is a quote from Notso (not sure if you know who he is but he’s a subject matter expert for the Strike Eagle and is a former WSO. He confirmed that the AMRAAM will tell you what PRF it does. DCS though only shows them at medium PRF for all AMRAAMs so it’s kind of a moot issue in the end. Quote follows: “In the Real SE, it will tell you when it’s gone to HPRF active and then MPRF active. Unfortunately the DCS AMRAAMs will only show Med. Hence why you will only ever see the M.” Hope this helps! I didn’t want to be spreading bad information in my video. I had checked this a few times before I did the voice over so I got worried that I was misinformed. ..

Lovely !! Can you make a video highlighting the similarities and differences between the F/A-18 and the F-15E? I'm on the fence of getting the F-15E just because I'm a big fan of it, however wanted to know from operations, missions what are the differences. I know obv. ones hornet being a marine can do carrier operations, etc.

[@StrIIker-TV]

Hah! You read my mind! Over the last couple of days I have been planning out a video where I do just such a thing. I was going to call it From Hornet to Strike Eagle. (Original, I know). I do love the Hornet still and all that it had available to it. Flying the Strike Eagle takes time to learn but I am getting the hang of it. I actually feel spoiled when I am back in the Hornet. FLIR I can see clearly, SA page, JHMCS. It still fun flying the Strike Eagle. I will get cracking on the video.
