What map is this? A preview of the upcoming DCS: Sinai Map. NOTE: Multi-Threading is enabled in this video, but DLSS is not (forgot to enable it). Purchase DCS: F-16C Viper from: In this DCS: F-16C Viper update, we’ll talk about the primary new features coming to our Viper: new ALR-65M radar warning receiver features, an animated tail hook, and the alternate landing gear handle. First, we’ll look at some of the new features coming to the Viper’s radar warning receiver, or RWR. Some of these items may have been introduced a bit earlier, so I’ll cover them all in this video. In the center of the RWR display can be indications for the Search and Low Altitude functions that can be enabled next to your left knee. When the S is flashing on the Search button, acquisition radars are not displayed on the RWR display. This can help declutter the scope. But, if you press the button and the S becomes steady, acquisition radars will be displayed, and an S is displayed in the center of the RWR scope. When the Altitude button is pressed and LOW is displayed on it, low altitude/short-range ground air defense systems are prioritized, and L is displayed in the center of the scope. If LOW is not displayed, then air emitters will be in priority. If both SEARCH and LOW are both enabled, then the S and L on the scope will mipple. Also please note that symbol sizes have been slightly reduced and Early Warning Radars, or EWR, are now displayed as a dish symbol on the scope. To see them, the SEARCH button will need to be enabled. New air and ground emitter visual and audio indications have also been updated. Newly detected emitters will pulsate for a few seconds between half size and full size to grab your attention. When a new airborne emitter is detected, you will hear a high frequency alert tone and when a ground emitter is first detected you will hear a lower alert tone. When you are locked by an airborne or ground-based radar in tracking mode, the scope symbol will now have a square around the emitter code. As before, if the radar is guiding a missile, there will be a flashing circle around it too. Speaking of radar-guided missiles launches… The missile launch tone is also now quite different. Rather than continue to sound if the radar is guiding a missile, it will now have a high-frequency launch alert tone of about seven beeps and then it will go silent for 15 seconds. If after 15 seconds a missile is still being radar-guided on you, the tone will repeat but at a lower tone. This pattern will continue until the radar is no longer in missile guidance mode. The target separate button now correctly separates a group of over overlapping emitters along the azimuth rather than incorrectly spreading them along heading. Only the priority emitter will be at its “true” scope location. Upon pressing the SYSTEM TEST BIT button, the RWR TEST BIT will run and display on the scope. Later, once we have a library of the pulse repetition frequency, or PRF, tones for each radar and operating mode, we will add the handoff mode that allows you to cycle the priority emitter and hear the PRF audio of it. In this next update we’ve hooked up a couple new items in the cockpit. The first is the tail hook. By setting the hook switch to the down position, the hook will be lowered. If then set to the up position, the hook will be slightly raised, but you’ll need to land and request a repair from the ground crew to fully raise it. Before you ask, we’d like to include the ground arrest system for airfields later, but there are currently no plans. I’m sure many of you will try it with the carrier though, good luck. The other cockpit item is the alternate landing gear handle, left mouse button clicking will allow the landing gear to drop using the same air pressure bottle as the tail hook. Note that the pressure is limited, and you probably cannot do both.
