@Uriah Dante Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I strongly advise you to read a book "Sidewinder" about making of the missile, its history. Great read for historical and technical junkies. Hard to believe how simple aim-9 was initially. And the rollerons idea... Its on amazon kindle store.
The sidewinder was developed in a garage, next to the house of the designer. I read that 30 years ago, but still remember. And the SW was so succesful that the KGB stole a SW from an US Airbase in West Germany.
@@mardiffv.8775 And reverse-engineered an AA-2 Atoll missile which was such a copycat that certain original parts were fitting straight from aim-9. Americans discovered it when Atoll lodged into an US jet and did not explode, bringing the russian missile to US base. Why do they always copycat US and not vice versa?
Am i missing something? Why can't I get my F14 to use the double D scan like yours? Master Arm is ON, the Sidewinder is selected, A/A combat mode is selected, SW COOL is ON, I think I got everything right. However, unlike yours, my MSL mode is locked at Normal mode, no effect when pressing the button, also the scanning is bore sight, I can't get the double D to work.
Jabbers, In the awesome video, you talk about the Double D mode (default) for the AIM-9 on the HUD. Specifically around the 3:20 mark. It is the seeker head searching around the crosshair. But when I arm up the AIM-9 I am not seeing this seeker. Is this a binding I need to set? Not sure why it is that I do not see this. I normally fly using the AIM-9M model. Is it something to a different model of AIM-9? Any ideas?? Thanks again for the great videos!!!
Hi, would I be correct to assume that when using the radar slave method to lock up a target and fire, the target is then made aware of the missile since my radar would be alerting them to the lock?
Jaberrs thanks for all your tutos!! Im waiting so much this cat!! I noticed that the last mode is the seen on top gun.. Amazing.. I have a question.. There will be some chance of puttin a maverik on the bombcat?? Thanks 4 all sir!
so mine seems to always be on bore sight? i dont get the fancy circle like actually moving on my hud scanning... how do i get that? I can hear that it is doing the pattern but cant visually see it
I'm curious, the manual says the sidewinder can be deployed against missiles as well. How effective is the sidewinder against on coming missiles and which situations can they be used to the f14's advantage?
Jabbers, What is a good setup for TrackIR? I find myself not able to look down to things the level of the master warning switch in the right side panel.
strange, maybe ill at some point do a video about how to set up trackir, been getting a lot of similar requests as you, my setup is custom, and as should everyones. The setup is based on distance from monitor and width of monitor.
So in other aircraft you get a ranging indicator or a no escape or shoot cues. The Bravo doesn't seem to have that so can you ask jester for ranging info or is it somewhere else on the HUD or on the displays?
Michael Rockford It does. Jump to 6:46 in the video. You need radar lock for it to work since simply locking up with the missile seeker gives no range information. This is actually the case with all other aircraft but you are probably used to using the radar to lock up targets for the sidewinder. Maybe the Russian planes are different with their IRST sensor.
The RIO has expanded Rmin, Rmax and Rne information on his display, it can even display the dynamic launch zones for all locked TWS targets simultaneously. Read the manual and you'll know more about this.
I've been trying to figure this out for hours but can't. I cannot get the Double D pattern to start\show no matter what I do. I've done it in the same exact sequence as you and I cannot get the DD patter. Is there something I'm missing that you don't show in the video? VSL Hi, VSL Lo, and Pal work just fine.
IDK if anyone has a solution to this, but when I select my Sidewinders, they're set by default in boresight mode. My Mode/STP switch is set to NORM, and when I hit my Cage/Seam bind on my HOTAS it never switches off of boresight aim, so I can't use the double d scan or anything other than putting my crosshair directly on the target. Anyone know a fix?
Need help thinking on my error hmmm..... My sidewinder don´t make this search pattern when i activate this..... where is the error :/ Think its the seam mode.
I would appreciate for a tutorial and I hope you will make aim-7 one, I have never hit the target by Aim-7...yes there are VSL HI/LOW , PLM and ACM mode tutorial by jabbers but.. I don't know exactly what i am doing wrong launch sparrow if possible i would like to hit the target about 20 miles away.. but i always miss the target and attacked from other enemy..and eject over and over.. please help me
@@fzijlstra2906 well, there is, you can make your own skin... I have done it for me and my friends for most aircrafts and will be doing it for the F-14 to :)
@@theflyinggasmask your right. I'm gonna join a squadron as soon as the f14 is out. Hope that someone makes a custom squadron skin with custom names. If not, i just noticed the Grim Reapers have a tutorial for it.
@@tehbigshow for sure, that looks real cool. I can't wait to test it out with a jet, seems like it might make tanking alot harder. I'm pretty sure the beefed up engines on the B are alot more resilient to stalls from jetwash.
Great video jabbers! Quick question: can we turn off the sidewinder / missile cooling (to save on coolant), or is that permanently on for 2.5 hours once you press the button?
Nice vid jabbers simply explained...and your name on the jet as well ...that's gonna get people asking lol Since I brought it up..how did....no I won't ask 🤔
Tomorrow, though it isnt called no nonsense, its no checklist... but thats cause HB asked if they could stick the tutorial in the manual, and didnt wanna throw people who didnt understand my trend.
@@Jabbers Wow nice :D well ...if I try that with him like turning the ICS down he would slap me on the neck !!! hahahahaha keep up the good work jabbers !!!

Duuude, that overlaying of the search limits onto the HUD is some top notch stuff.
Flying Ms. Daisy :D
Great work jabbers enjoy watching these! On page 456 of NATOPS so far, the 14 is an absolute monster!
I learned WAY more about the F-14 than just the AIM-9 in this video...... VERY well done.
Everyone who has done these Heatblur tutorials have done a great job. However, yours are the best.
1:15 is wrong, you actually want to listen to how much fighter pilot jargon the missile uses to tell how cool it is.
Haha, noted, i'll make immediate corrections
Man: those avionics are showing their age.
it's a really nice thing you are doing for us. Thank you, Have a great Weekend.

@@norman191000 Because of an old Dutch saying: "Better well stolen, then bad engineering". Stealing is faster and cheaper.
Really like the seeker sound turning up and the missiles DO sound while shooting! Other modules learn from HB
Thanks for your videos jabbers you are the best dont stop
You the man Jabbers. I don't know where I would be without your videos. Thanks!
5:00 Just additional info, you can fire A-G ordnance and the gun too
Jabbers its 2:12 in the morning, but it's ok
Thank you Jabbers, liked your name on the plane looks great. I might have to learn how to make skins for it so i can put mine and my RIO's name there.
That cool down sound for the AIM-9 is so dope. Why hasn't every jet movie used the heck out of that sound???
But the Phœnix drops from the plane and then engages the engine.... and that is also the trigger... but it falls off the plane
Sidewinder wake turbulence ?
Yup
Nice. I hope it's realistic.(I had no idea)

It's there, but no longer shows
@@Jabbers Thanks Jabers, I see. So it is a bug then I guess?
No it was never suppose to be there, the SMEs for HB said it was the pattern but never showed on the hud so HB removed it
Jabbers,

The visual got removed after release, it is still doing it though
Hi, would I be correct to assume that when using the radar slave method to lock up a target and fire, the target is then made aware of the missile since my radar would be alerting them to the lock?
No the radar is only helping with the initial launch
I am loving all these videos to hold me over until the 13th! Thank you so much!
Jaberrs thanks for all your tutos!! Im waiting so much this cat!! I noticed that the last mode is the seen on top gun.. Amazing.. I have a question.. There will be some chance of puttin a maverik on the bombcat?? Thanks 4 all sir!
nice Jabs. This is going to be a handful
so mine seems to always be on bore sight? i dont get the fancy circle like actually moving on my hud scanning... how do i get that? I can hear that it is doing the pattern but cant visually see it
Dd doesn't visually show even tho it's working, apparently the SMEs said it didn't actually show visually
I'm curious, the manual says the sidewinder can be deployed against missiles as well. How effective is the sidewinder against on coming missiles and which situations can they be used to the f14's advantage?
This is true in more than just the 14, but it's very hard to do and not something you should ever really rely on
@@Jabbers Hmmm, something to play around with when I get better. Thanks for the reply!
Thank you made it so easy for me to learn it all the other videos just tell you ranges and stuff
Can you do one on the aim 7 or have you already?
Interesting, the AI (A model)only holds 2 total aim9s in DCS atm
Hi just asking a question what type of font do you use for the callsigns?

Aaaah - I always wondered why Maverick was too close for missiles, switching to guns...

@@audunskilbrei8279 forgive me but where is it on the HUD symbology. I'm sure I'll find out tomorrow.
Michael Rockford not on the hud. On the screen below the hud.
No wonder they cancelled it. That's the best Turkey troll so far. Loving it Jabbers...keep the vids coming.

It got removed. SME said it doesn’t do that
@@Jabbers oh ok, Thanks.
Wish I could update the video...
Man those sounds when you launch the missile!? Why is it not present on other aircraft?
Because other devs don't care. HB is raising the bar, hopefully it will make others rise to the challenge. :)
Hey I was wondering how you get your sidewinder crosshairs to move like that instead of sitting still on your borsite?
It was taken out, it’s doing that but not visible anymore
IDK if anyone has a solution to this, but when I select my Sidewinders, they're set by default in boresight mode.

It seems to be the same for me
Hey Jabbers. Great vid-tutorial, as all of yours.

Have to edit the textures
it wont let me its copyrighted or something.. :(
@@Jabbers
Good Stuff Jabbers
Need help thinking on my error hmmm..... My sidewinder don´t make this search pattern when i activate this..... where is the error :/ Think its the seam mode.

In DCS sparrows are basically WVR missiles, I wouldn’t expect a AIM-7 to hit unless launched within 10nm or less
I saw that you have your name on the side of the plane. Is this part of your skin or is it possible to do this pre flight?
skin

@jabbers is the potential for engine flame out or compressor stall after firing the aim 9s modeled?
I've not experienced it.
Wasn't this more of a problem with the F14A? Or do the Bs have this issue as well
Quite a good shudder from flying through the wake of those, huh?
@@tehbigshow for sure, that looks real cool. I can't wait to test it out with a jet, seems like it might make tanking alot harder. I'm pretty sure the beefed up engines on the B are alot more resilient to stalls from jetwash.

how do i select aim9?
IM FEEELING THE HYPE!!!!!
reticle ;p
Seriously tho, fucking redical...
What the hell? I can't drop bombs, fire the gun and launch missiles at the same time? Preorder canceled.
Great video jabbers! Quick question: can we turn off the sidewinder / missile cooling (to save on coolant), or is that permanently on for 2.5 hours once you press the button?
I believe you can turn it off, probably a fence out checklist item
Awesome stuff, as usual. What is "ADL"?
Armament Datum Line, the + at the top of the HUD
@@Jabbers Awesome, just learned this in you pilot lock on mode vid and came back to update. You rock. Thanks so much :)
Ya, there was an order to these when i made them... so assumptions were made, i probably should have restated.

Nope

Custom livery
When I go into instant action dogfight it sets it up for me and I can’t fire any missiles, anyone know why?
Did you select the missile you wanna fire?
Is said SW at the bottom of the HUD, does that count as selecting the missile?
oof, uploaded while I was asleep but nice vid tho!
Nice vid jabbers simply explained...and your name on the jet as well ...that's gonna get people asking lol

Why my AIM 9M keeping searching in double d while the enemy is in front of me. He just don't lock the enemy !
