FlyAndWire Air-to-Air first impression - RIP AWG-9

Interesting video about C:MO and radars, specially AN/AWG-9 of the Tomcat.

Glad to see my A2A BVR Duel Quick Battles being used as intended, though someone needs to tell this guy that there are indeed separate tracking and detection modes for all of the radars in CMO, and that the tracking mode allows azimuth offsets (allowing for cranks, etc.).

This shows once again that there is a subset of the CMO user base coming from the flightsim community, and they can really go down the rabbit hole with this kind of stuff. 8-)
The boogabooga doctrine for CMO: Any intentional human intervention needs to be able to completely and reliably over-ride anything that the AI is doing at any time.

An analogy that comes to mind is: A very good PES player tries Football Manager and has a hard time adjusting to the fact that he can no longer do scissor kicks.
