46 Heads-Up Display Modes A-10 Air-to-Air HUD • With the AIM-9 selected, a circle is shown in the center of the HUD representing the missile’s field of view. To lock the weapon, steer the aircraft to bring the target within the circle. Once locked, the target must remain within the circle or the lock is lost. Uncaging the seeker head allows it to move freely and attempt to follow the target. • Selecting the cannon brings the low-aspect gunsight funnel to the HUD. The funnel provides an estimation of a target’s range. The funnel is calibrated against the typical wingspan of a fighter-sized target. Maneuver the target aircraft into the funnel. Pull sufficient lead until the wings of the target just touch the both edges of the funnel. For fighter-sized targets, this should be the appropriate lead angle to ensure the rounds strike the target. Larger-thanaverage or smaller-than-average targets require manually estimating the required lead angle. 3.3. Su-27 and MiG-29 HUD Modes Introduction to Avionics & Combat Systems LOMAC offers a complex and realistic portrayal of the real-world avionics suite found in the Su-27 and Su-33. By Western standards, these systems are generally regarded as inadequate, creating high pilot workload. To get the most out of the Flanker, you must learn how to operate its systems and how to cope with its design limitations. All HUD displays fall into one of three categories: navigation, air-to-air combat, or air-to-ground combat. Submodes organize and display different types of information. Generally speaking, it’s not necessary to utilize every submode for each category; however, each submode is designed for a particular task. Russian vs English Displays To create the most authentic simulation of a Russian aircraft, all displays and HUD indicators default to the Russian language with Cyrillic characters. You may, however, switch the displays between English and Russian in the Options menu under “miscellaneous.” Please note: Regardless of the language used, all
Heads-Up Display Modes 47 displays will still use metric units. Altitude is measured in meters, and airspeed is measured in kilometers per hour. Navigation The navigation modes are your primary means of finding your way around the simulated battlefield. There are four navigation submodes. Russian English Designation Pronounced Designation Mode Type Purpose YFD “nav” NAV Piloting Visual navigation with a compass and stopwatch VFHI “marsh” ENR Enroute Enroute navigation DJPD “vosv” RTN Return Return to the Initial Approach Fix at the home airbase GJC “pos” LNDG Landing Activates the Instrument Landing System (ILS) and autoland feature (for carrier operations) To select the navigation category, press the 1 key. This selects the default navigation mode, Piloting. Cycle through the various individual navigational submodes by hitting the 1 key repeatedly. YFD–(NAV) – Piloting Submode The piloting mode is the initial navigation submode, automatically displayed whenever you first press the 1 key while in another mode. This mode provides only minimal information. The HUD shows airspeed, altitude, and flight attitude information while the MFD shows airfields and the Admiral Kuznetzov aircraft carrier, if present. Use this mode for free-form flying without any pre-determined plan. Airspeed Altitude Heading Pitch Angle NAV Mode Selected Aircraft Datum The YFD (NAV) - Piloting HUD VFHI (ENR) - Enroute Submode The VFHI (ENR) submode is the primary navigation submode, enabling the pilot to fly the pre-determined mission flight profile. Select it by pressing the 1 key while in the initial NAV or piloting mode. Each waypoint is characterized by its coordinates on the ground, its altitude, and the desired airspeed for that leg of the trip. This mode displays the required speed and altitude of the waypoint in small characters located above the actual speed and altitude readouts of the aircraft. A circle or navigation reticle inside the HUD points the way to the next waypoint. Maneuver the aircraft to center the navigation reticle in the HUD and you’re heading directly to the next waypoint. Numbers in the center of the HUD’s bottom edge indicate the distance to the next waypoint in kilometers.
