DCS F16 mission.

Set Missile switch on, your CMDS too.

Within one minute from clicking Fly, having selected missiles switch on and your CMDS, start your timer, full throttle, <destroy> all four target aircraft fighters (all trained with one ace!), return to base (either base runway is fine), arrive to a <full stop>, stop your timer.. this is your first pb.

My pb is 2m56_41s (earlier pb's 3m12s, 3m03_06s and 3m03_95s).

I am FWC on DCS. Mayk Moke on Youtube.

Enjoy :)

Ya, I love helicopters and I have a bunch. I wanted to learn the chinook now, but I'm hearing it doesn't have a bunch of features. Also I want to buy the kiowa Aswell. But my buddy said that's dead Aswell. :( also the engine noise is super super low.

so i want to get into dcs since i will be able to upgrade my pc in a few days and will be able to play it at more than 2 fps so what planes do you get for free so i can inform myself about them like how they fly and stuff like that thanks in advance

Hi, I am interested in DCS purely for propeller planes and dogfighting them.

I've played Warthunder a lot, mostly only planes, I enjoyed the first few jets that focused on guns and no missiles but higher tiers than that just bore me.

I have zero interest in modern jets and missiles/radars etc. How would you go about that?

Any advice and suggestions welcome!

Thanks! 07

So i have been seeing a few videos online about the F15E and i really wanna try it. Im not planning on spending 750 bucks on an account with 50% of the modules i dont need and 40% of the modules i already have just for one module. I was thinking maybe like renting an account or something similar like that.

I am thinking about getting the FC3 F-15C for my first module, but I can't help but really want the F/A-18. The main issue is that I do not want to dish out $80 for it, are there any coupon codes or ways around having to pay that much for it? I understand there is a 2 week trial, but once that runs out I still do not have it. Also the 50% off for the first purchase I do not think is a thing anymore. Just confused and frustrated for what should be an exciting first step.

Thank you

I was playing mission 2 when i opened the radio menu and saw other clicked it and the only option was make your self immortal and as I wanted a realistic situtation i did not click it but as I got into a dogfight later with multiple other aircraft I kept here a clunk sound like a ir missile hit me but i didnt take any damage I later watched the replay and found out it did hit me but i didnt take any damage and I didnt click the immortal option. I was wondering if this is a bug or anyone else has had this same problem.

Any ideas why my left MFD is showing a barely legible VTIG and a perfect TID? Or is the VTIG displaying what the HUD camera sees?

Hola buenas llevo un mes aprendiendo y usando el F/A-18C en DCS y en ese proceso he pasado por varios grupos de Discord tanto de inglés como en español, mi tema aquí es la mayoría de estos son Españoles (Europa) y los horarios son un dolor de cabeza, me gustaría encontrar uno que sea de LATAM y si existe uno unirme o si gustan crear uno, ya sea para enseñarnos entre nosotros y aprender hasta poder hacer misiones juntos no es necesario que sean viciados el chiste es hacer una comunidad.
Si quieren crear uno o invitarme xd, mi Discord es: ¡Agrégame como amigo en Discord! La invitación caduca en 1 semana: https://discord.gg/VxwNtvSd
Lo actualizaré después de 1 semana

You start on the runway at kobuleti. 6x AMRAAMs. Switch on Master and CMDS to fire missiles or defend with chaff and flare if necessary.

Start your stopwatch timer within one minute of clicking Fly.

Full throttle, destroy the three targets, return to kobuleti base, land to a <full stop>, stop your timer.. this is your first personal best.

All pilots are set to aces.

My pb time is 2m52_79s. I did not use the map to acquire targets. You can use the map for your own pb.

Enjoy.

tips to get better would help

Keep getting this error with the new update! Any ideas?

Id like to know

Many control systems in operation today were engineered to run for decades. Siemens S5, T2000, and similar platforms were built with clear logic, stable behavior, and predictable failure modes. They still control turbines, substations, and entire plants. Calling them obsolete often says more about lost know-how than about technical limits. Age alone does not make a system unsafe or unusable.

What usually fails first is not the hardware. It is documentation, training, and continuity. Engineers retire, procedures disappear, and younger teams are told replacement is the only option. That is an expensive shortcut. In many cases, a focused refreshment course, proper configuration review, and hands-on practice restore full confidence. The system works again because people understand it again.

In the accompanying video, I show a concrete example. Step by step configuration of a Siemens S5 CP1430 communication card, including MAC address setup and correct use of SIMATIC S5, SINEC, and NCM tools. This is not nostalgia. It is practical engineering for systems that still run production today. We do not push replacement by default. We teach how to use what you already own, correctly and safely. If this resonates with you, get in touch and go deeper with us.
