Navigation in the F-15

1st Official Post

    Hi,

    I was just wondering if there is something I have missed in the F-15. When I create a flightplan, there is really no way to follow it in the F-15. I don't seem to be able to tune any nav stations, even using key commands,, and the map on the centre MFD moves, but does not display the flight plan. Is there any way to navigate, or can the F-15 only be flown VFR? It's great fun either way, but I would just like to know if there are options.

    Cheers

    The navigation in our fighters is a bit limited yet mostly because as you said it's probably just used for VFR flights, most of the time with throttles to the firewall, pulling the stick full aft. It just hasn't been top priority in the past, since most users don't really want to fly these fighters on instruments it seems. It's a lot more fun to just scream around and do all sorts of things you always wanted to do and actually wouldn't be allowed to in the real world :D
