HUD AND RADAR Reading the Radar Display

It is crucial you understand how to read both your Heads-Up Display

information that will help you both pilot your aircraft and engage the
enemy.

FLIGHT
Basic Aerodynamics
There are four basic forces that affect an aircraft’s flight: Weight,
Thrust, Lift and Drag.
Weight is determined by gravity and is the force that pulls downward
on an aircraft. It is the biggest obstacle to flight. The force of gravity
remains constant at 32.2 feet per squared second.
Thrust is the force exerted by a jet’s engines. This propels the jet
forward and causes air to flow over and under the wings. This
creates lift.
Lift is the force exerted on an aircraft’s wings as air flows both over
and under them. Depending on the angle of the wings, it can be a
positive or negative force on flight. If the force of lift exceeds an
aircraft’s weight, the jet will gain altitude. If the force of lift is less
than the jet’s weight, it will descend. The greater the angle to the
airflow a jet’s wings are, the greater the lift. However, past a certain
point, if the angle increases too much, lift will begin to decrease
again.
Drag is a side effect of thrust, and is the aircraft’s resistance to air.
Drag increases the faster a jet goes, and the steeper the wing angle
to an airflow.
The greatest advantages a pilot can have in a combat situation is
speed and altitude. The faster aircraft gains an immediate advantage
in turning, pursuing and evasion, and will usually walk away from a
dogfight the victor. Altitude becomes important in a prolonged fight,
because diving is a quick way to gain or regain speed. Being aware
of weight, thrust, lift and drag will help you retain top speeds and
altitudes in combat.
22
Landing and Taking Off
To complete some missions, you must learn to land or take off.
To land:
1. Reduce your speed to 200 knots as you close on your landing site.
You can achieve this by lowering your throttle to 65 – 70%.
2. Approach the airstrip and aim your nose towards the start of the
runway. Keep your eye on the flight path indicator in your HUD
display to maintain your course. Begin descending slowly.
3. When you are close to landing, deploy your landing gear by
pressing G.
4. The moment your plane touches the runway, press W to enable
the wheel brakes.
To take off from an airbase:
1. Disengage your wheel brakes by pressing W.
2. Press E to turn on your jet’s engines.
3. Throttle up to 100% (press A) and engage your afterburners by
hitting Backspace four times. Your jet will begin moving down the
runway.
4. When you reach between 140 and 200 knots, pull back on the stick
(take-off speed varies depending on jet type and weapons load.
An unarmed F-16 Fighting Falcon™, for example, can take off at
140 knots.) Try not to angle your plane too steeply or it will stall.
5. Once you are airborne, lift your landing gear by pressing G.
Following Navpoints
Navpoints are locations programmed into the avionics of your jet.
They appear on both your HUD and radar.
In the game, navpoints will indicate the location of key targets,
waypoints, rendezvous points, convoy locations and more. To
complete some missions, you will need to fly to these navpoints.

Lag pursuit means you are aiming the nose of your jet behind your
target, narrowing the gap between the two of you by making wider
turns and retaining speed better than your opponent.
Countermeasures
Your jet carries three types of countermeasure systems to help
evade enemy fire: chaff, flares and the ECM jammer.
perform a quick 180 degree roll to right yourself again.
Split-S – The Split-S is the opposite of the Immelmann. Use it to
increase speed while confusing pursuers. Invert your jet with a 180
degree roll, and then pull back on the stick. Continue pulling back on
the stick as your aircraft dives until the jet levels out again with the
horizon.

Chaff is essentially metal pieces of scrap ejected by an aircraft.
Launching chaff into the air will confuse radar-guided missiles by
masking your aircraft and is a fairly effective countermeasure when
dealing with missiles launched at you from a short distance. You can
launch chaff by hitting the ‘ key.
Flares are incendiary devices ejected by an aircraft. Their purpose is
similar to chaff, except that flares are used to confuse heat-seeking
missiles instead of radar-seeking ones. You can launch a flare by
hitting the ; key.
The ECM jammer is a device that scrambles radar and weapons,
thus ‘blinding’ radar-guided missiles. It will also jam your own radar,
so use it with caution. It is best utilized against missiles fired at long-
range.
The most important thing to remember when evading is to keep your
speed and altitude up and be unpredictable. Try combining the above
techniques or inventing your own. If your opponent can predict your
movements, there is a good chance you won’t survive the encounter.
AIR-TO-GROUND COMBAT
Combat Basics
When engaging hostile ground targets such as tanks, your greatest
advantage is the element of surprise. Try flying low under an enemy’s
radar and attacking with guided Maverick missiles or your cannon.
Alternatively, if you approach from an altitude out of the range of
their weapons systems, you can attempt dive bombing for a quick
strike and getaway.
