Regarding what I observed earlier, not a great difference but a noticeable one. I am just thinking aloud here before someone more knowledgeable than myself chimes in but perhaps due to the delta wing and denser air is why the Euro is slower at sea level where other jets’ performance aren’t impacted as noticeable?
Here is side x side of the same two jets taking off under the same weather conditions, 50% fuel. Above sea level the Euro fighter is slower than at sea level but the F15 C seems to have a slight advantage over the Euro above sea level.
I have no issue with one jet being faster than the other. It just makes me curious if wing design can make such an immediate impact from the start when departing from different altitudes.
Why do you keep going on about 50% fuel? If the planes have different size fuel tanks then 50% will be a totally different value and weight for each! Your methods are ridiculous. If you want to test thrust coefficients you should at least make sure EACH plane is EXACTLY the same takeoff weight
The developer of the F-16 stated on his facebook page that he sat with an actual F-16 pilot while developing the aircraft to make sure it is as accurate as possible.
all DC/SC Designs products have had input from the real world pilots with many many hours stick time.
Also CJ’s Typhoon has had input and continues to do so from current typhoon pilots

Reworked version of my paintings with more details in the lettering and other details of the german luftwaffe Liveries - checked with version 0.1.2 and 0.1.5
For research I used Kagero Top Shots which contains many detailed photos.
Depends on how modern. Most of the statistics on 4th gen aircraft have been mostly uncovered and confirmed. I speak with my only experience being block 50-70 F16s but still. Pretty accurate flight characteristics can be calculated in simulation programs by anyone these days really. Model an airframe with proper weight, control surfaces, and center of gravity at varrying speeds and air pressure.
Rate of acceleration and engine performance (especially with full burners on) is generally what they dont want adversaries to be able to optimize weapon systems to. I remember seeing a demonstration of the JAS 39 in 2015 where they had a big screen showing fixed camera angles inside the cockpit too. The HUD symbology was blurred out and the airspeed indicator had something covering it from that camera angle.
All in all, I have liked all of DC designs products so far and this is a colab project. I have everything except this Typhoon and the Harrier. Which should I get first?
Increased trim Limits for Autopilot compatibility
Note: Remember manual trim is available below 186knots for approach/landing purposes.
HSI: redone for Pilot Awareness format rendition.
ELEV: Features expanded. It is now possible to switch between camera and synthetic view. With synthetic vision you can change the gray scale.
MDE/HDD buttons: horizontal bars (highlight bars) are added to the buttons to improve the visibility of the active functions when the sun reflects on the cockpit.
MASS switch implemented with states SAFE, STBY and LIVE. Status is reflected on the STORES page
New Liveries Added (Special Credits to Reaper7645, SikXskillZ & Dasadles as the authors of these):
Italian Air Force, Group X Special
RAF 17Sqn, ZJ930
RAF 17Sqn Anniversary, ZJ947
Italian Air Force, 3rd Storm Anniversary
Qatar Air Force
Eurofighter 2000 Primer
RAF 6Sqn, ZK342
Spanish Airforce 2016, Tigermeet
RAF 9Sqn, “Batman”
Overall Fixes on Liveries: General livery arrangements have been made that had some uncovered
holes, alignments between different pieces, etc.
Landing gear angles fixed.
For MarketPlace users, this update is expected to go live on Jan 11th.
Anyone know how to tuen off the pilot in first person view? I cant see anything because im in the head and xhest if some random person lol. If anyone knows how to turn that off please let me know. It only appears after i turn on battery. Weird. Thank you, and merry christmas.
set the weight of the pilot to less than 50kg (110 lbs) and the ghosting should disappear. It also only happens if you use custom cameras (which I always do). Since there’s an instructor seat (but no instructor) I set the pilot to 100 lbs then make up the difference with the instructor. And Merry Christmas!
