If you need any help on the servers etc. just ask people, the DCS community is so great - mostly everyone will take its time for you to welcome you to the sqadron^^
Re the Link 16 delay, it's a TDMA link (Time Division Multiple Access) with 12 seconds between your slots, hence the delay. It also means it can't be used for A-A painter-shooter tactics like the F-35 MADL or Gripen Fighter link enables. These are both real-time links. This is also why the Gripen fighter link has only the own group as active members, it then adds Link 16 for connections to a wider net which gives SA info ( F-35 does the same, listen-only when it wants to keep stealth).
Your second example with the ground targets: is there to way to 'hook' your wingman's target (kind of like it's done on the A-10C), so that you pretty much can just command the TGP to slew directly to said designation?
Awesome video like always! Thank you ! :D Question, which planes does this work with in multiplayer? In which planes do you have the Link 16? Thanks again!
As far as I know, the only way to be part of a flight is via editor. In ME you can set up to 4 aircraft to be together inside the same flight. At the end, it's like talking about groups.
I recently purchased the F-18 and the supercarrier. These videos are really helping me out a lot. Thanks a bunch!

thx
I think you mean a use-case rather than a role-play but a good useful vid that's to the point. Nice work once again - really liking this style.

Thank you ! The F-18 is full of operational gadgets in DCS, takes a big brain to remember and use everything ^^
This feature is amazing. I have been playing for months without it :P. Game changing.

Can this be used to assign A/A targets to other members of the flight?
It' view-only, so you will have to tell them who to attack through coms.
Thank you Grim
Do TWS friendly locks show up?
TWS L&S should still show.
Does this change in TWS or is it specific to RWS?
Should work still. Will show current TWS L&S
Awesome video like always! Thank you ! :D
Question, which planes does this work with in multiplayer? In which planes do you have the Link 16?
Thanks again!
Will investigate.
@@grimreapers Thanks so much! :)
How is it that your plane has all these new features? My F18 doesn't have these new features, and game is updated. Checked today, 1/30/21
Install the open beta
I use Steam DCS 2.5 don't know if that is possible
This is why I'm never becoming a pilot. Like REALLY? I have to use my eyes to do stuff? I'd rather get a job at the Helen Keller
Research center
Does this work with other aircraft for example an f16 locks a ground target does it show up on the f18?
lol I didn't try that. Will investigate.
@@grimreapers Awesome!
When you say 'he's not in my flight', what does that mean? How do you become part of someone's flight?
As far as I know, the only way to be part of a flight is via editor. In ME you can set up to 4 aircraft to be together inside the same flight. At the end, it's like talking about groups.
Very nice skins Cap :)
Thanx
Hoiw did it know RC was your wingman?
The flights are created in Mission editor.
@@grimreapers So it's not possible to do this on a MP server?
I need some people to fly with. Discord is. ThemTaps#3224
Grim reapers would love to fly with you sometime 👍
