Before moving into the Kill Box planning stage, it is worth visualising how a kill box is represented and its types.

Kill Boxes are fundamental means of coordinating fire into a defined area, maximising effects, safety, and efficiency while minimising the need for additional communication and tight control. This article introduces the Kill Boxes and related concepts, such as ACM and FSCM.
F-4E Navigation: Impromptu In-Game No-Tools Planning – VR Friendly!
The idea behind this video came from a post I read on ED’s forum about having an in-game F-4E kneeboard page that does pretty much everything (from course and distance to time and fuel). An idea I found very much not feasible.

A more complex solution definitely requires something ad hoc; something that should come from ED itself, and should be fully integrated in DCS.
