F-4E Air-to-Air Intercepts: Practice – Phantom Phamiliarisation VII
After the recap of basic notions of intercepts and geometry of Part VI, we now see how things are put into practice.

As the F-4E draws closer, a quick review of the Air-to-Air intercepts with a B-Scope and Pulse mode is in order.
The two most common radar displays in DCS are the B-Scope and the PPI, acronym for “Plan Position Indicator”. They provide, more or less, the same information, but the perspective is different and the B-Scope, in particular, can be especially disorientating at first.
It’s mid-August already! Here is a bunch of news, spanning from the just released new F-4E images, to Virtual Backseaters Volume II, and much more!
The F-4E radar and avionics have a few incredibly cool features, and this is, in my opinion, one of the most interesting parts of the Phantom Phamiliarisation discussion so far.
