The goal should be to fly the F-14 as a crew (Pilot/RIO) to reach its full potential. However, In order to train effectively on your own, you as a pilot/RIO must be able to use Iceman/Jester.

The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our F-14 pilots and should be seen as a minimum level of knowledge. The syllabus should be used to identify educational needs and help you set up training goals for the next sortie. When you can complete all parts of the syllabus without the need for external assistance, you should be well prepared to complete the Basic Qualification.

Home >> Aircraft Syllabi >> F-14 Tomcat Syllabus

If not specified in the Syllabus all procedures are to be followed as described in the F-14 Manual.

"F-14B Manual" can be found in the DCS installation folder "DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F14\Docs"

If you are new to the MA-community, be sure to read about our procedures around the airfield (Linked below) to ensure everyone can have a safe training environment. Good luck and have fun!

- Runways
- Taxiways
- TACAN/ILS Freq
- Entry/Exit points

The goal should be to fly the F-14 as a crew (Pilot/RIO) to reach its full potential. However, In order to train effectively on your own, you as a pilot/RIO must be able to use Iceman/Jester. Therefore you should be able to complete everything described in the Pilot/RIO "Basic Section" below with Iceman/Jester. During Qualification your examiner will fly with you as Pilot/RIO.

Pilot

Basic Section

The Basic Syllabus gives an overall picture of what is expected to be accomplished by our F-14 pilots and should be seen as a minimum level of knowledge. The syllabus should be used to identify educational needs and help you set up training goals for the next sortie. When you can complete all parts of the syllabus without the need for external assistance, you should be well prepared to complete the Basic Qualification.

General

Radio/SRS

  • Set Transponder code (SRS)
  • Transmit/Receive on Intercom (PTT)
  • Power ON/OFF and transmit/receive in both MNL/PRESET MODE using:
- Radio 1 UHF (SRS)
- Radio 2 VHF (SRS)
  • Basic Comms as part of a flight (not as lead)
  • Tune ATIS-freq. Listen to and understand ATIS Information.

Flying

Startup

  • Cold Start, p.341-353 in manual (ask mentor or in #Tomcat-channel on discord for quickstart checklist)

Takeoff

In-flight

  • Standard Climb (Military Power, use pitch to maintain 5 units of AoA)
  • Economy Cruise (adjust throttle for 8.5 units of AoA)
  • Navigation
- Visually navigate between two points using for example terrain objects as guidance (the compass and an empty F10 map may be used)
- Follow several waypoints in succession (flightplan) using information provided by the in-cockpit instruments or projected on HUD/HSD.
- Navigate To/From or in reference to a TACAN using Radials and the courseline on HSD
  • Autopilot
- Engage Attitude hold.
- Engage Altitude hold.
  • Fuel quantity indicator:
- Set Bingo quantity
- Read Total/Wing/Ext. fuel quantity
  • Fence In / Fence Out procedures
  • Emergency Jettison
  • On-speed Flying
- Level Flight (Pick an altitude, dirty up and go on-speed maintaining altitude)
- Turning (Perform ~30 degree bank turns maintaining altitude)
- Careful climbing and descending (around 500 feet/minute)
- Quickly going from ordinary flight (around 350 kts IAS) to on-speed flying.

Landing

  • Landing (~500-700 feet/minute, no flare)
- After touchdown apply back stick for aerobraking and steer the aircraft with stick instead of rudder
  • Overhead break (Approach in runway direction, 300 kts IAS, 1500'. Break over runway (Throttle -> IDLE, Airbrake -> OUT, G≈1% of IAS), enter downwind, get "on speed" and land as explained above) http://wiki.masterarms.se/index.php/Fil:OverheadBreak.png
  • Traffic Pattern Touch'n'Go Practice (maintain on-speed, climb to 1500', turn downwind to end up ~1.5 NM from course line, turn final and descend when wingtip passes runway threshold)


Combat

Air-To-Air

  • Radar
- Understand the doppler filters MLC/ZDF
  • ACM-mode
  • Activate ACM-mode
  • Acquire lock on single maneuvering target (MiG-21) using:
- PLM
- VSL
  • Use ACM Jettison
  • Gun
  • Hit single maneuvering target. (MiG-21)
  • AIM-9 Sidewinder
  • Fire in:
- Boresight-mode
- SEAM-mode
  • Hit single maneuvering target. (MiG-21)
  • AIM-7 Sparrow
  • Fire in:
- Boresight-mode
- Normal-mode
  • Hit single maneuvering target. (MiG-21)
  • AIM-54 Phoenix
  • Fire AIM-54 Phoenix (clearence from RIO) in:
- TWS
- PD-STT
- P-STT
  • Hit single maneuvering target. (MiG-21)

Air-To-Ground

  • Gun
  • Obtain rounds on static target
Example: https://youtu.be/e38Z_GMbPR0 (Start from 8000', roll in when target is visible in the lower left/right corner of fron cockpit window (Above left/right vertical console), ~30 degree dive angle, ~350-400 kts, fire short burst at ~3000' and pull up)
  • Unguided bombs
  • Low drag
- Release in Computer Pilot mode.
- Hit static area-target
Examples: https://youtu.be/kPapYJb-A5E (Start from 8000', roll in when target is visible in the lower left/right corner of fron cockpit window (Above left/right vertical console), ~30 degree dive angle, ~350-400 kts, drop at ~4000' and pull up)

Defence

  • Reading the RWR (Further from center means more danger)
  • Deploy flares
  • Evade enemy missile by putting it on your 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock (Evaluate in TacView)
