F15E Quick Guide - Air to Ground, dumb bombs, CDIP & Auto Mode

Описание: In this quick tutorial I cover the basics of air-to-ground engagements with dumb bombs in the new F15E Strike Eagle for DCS World. In this step-by-step guide, you’ll learn everything you need to know about loading weapons, setting them up, and delivering them effectively using CDIP and AUTO Mode. A short overview about how to use the Targeting Pod wraps this tutorial up. As always you can find the key binds below and also mentioned during the video. Let me know in the comments which part I should cover next. Please take note that this guide only touches the surface of this complex topic and is aimed to get you started and interested to dive deeper into the mechanics of the F15E.

Stay tuned and have fun bombing stuff with the F15E!


Keybinds:

You will find all the listed key binds quickly when you type “Hotas” in the search bar of the controls panel. The information in [ ] is the exact category where you find the key bind, I also try to match this setup when I bind it to my Hotas. The key bind listed have the exact wording like in dcs, so you can copy them to search, the description behind the “-“ is only a explanation and should not be copied .
