December 28, 20178 yr ***Mini Update*** " Just another little detail… When the cabin pressure switch is set to RAM/DUMP position, the Cabin/Defog RAM Air Inlet Door Assembly is now animated. You can see this in the attached image, just behind the nosewheel landing strut." 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
December 28, 20178 yr Phantom88 1m mini update "Two of the biggest Hornet tasks are the A/A radar and A/G weapon HUD modes. Today, we have a first, early look at the A/A radar DATA sub-level page and the bombing HUD. Both though are still incomplete." 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick

December 31, 20178 yr The live stream was fantastic and I'm sure will be on YouTube soon.Wags ran into a snag and couldn't show us some things he wished being it was live. He recorded an "Amendment " to his live stream to showcase what The Hornet team has accomplished Video #II 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick

January 8, 20188 yr ***Mini Update*** "Time for a mini-update! Most of the team has been on the Russian new year’s holiday the past 10 days, but work will resume in full force on Tuesday. We are in sprint mode now to bring the Early Access build of the Hornet to release status as soon as we can. As mentioned before, much of the current work revolves around tuning the flight model / Flight Control System (FCS), weapon integration (SMS page, HUD, and objects), the air-to-air radar, the INS system to support waypoints, and whole lotta systems and sound tuning. Once more weapons come online, we’ll be showing them off and their delivery modes. Our art team is also working on some new skins that we should be showing off soon. Today we have an image of LAU-61 rocket pods and ZUNI rockets for the Hornet. For the next Hornet academic video, we’ll dive into the HUD, Upfront Controller (UFC), and Integrated Fuel and Engine Indicator (IFEI). 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
January 10, 20188 yr ***Mini Update*** When creating our F/A-18C Hornet, our goal has been to create the most accurate simulation of a LOT 20 Hornet possible. One area we ran into issues with though is the defensive systems. While we had great information on the ALR-67, ALE-39, and ALQ-162, we ran into a lot of trouble finding good data on the newer ALE-47 and ALQ-165 ASPJ systems. Because of that, we had to use the older defensive systems panel in the bottom center instrument panel. After a lot of hunting, we’ve been able to put enough open source information together to create a rather accurate simulation of the ALE-47 and ALQ-165 system operations. The ALE-47 in particular provides a lot more capability in creating manual programs and the semi-automatic and automatic programs. Attached, you can see the new Integrated Countermeasures Control Panel (ICMCP). As you will probably notice, this panel is rather spartan. This is because most of the functions have been moved to the EW DDI page. Thanks, Matt “Wags” Wagner Senior Producer y 100%75%50%d8a34be0e82d98b5a45ff4336cd0dddc Patrick
