DCS 2020 | F-16/F-18 SHORT LANDING [TUTORIAL]

Tutorial on how to minimize the landing roll of the F-16C Viper and F/A-18C Hornet, and comparison with other modern jets in DCS. Practice mission file here: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AllysC_1x0nzjNtPixtM0s_hhkBGZw?e=cPCELl Edit: 1. The AoA for the Viper short landing approach can be as high as 13° (I mentioned up to 12.5° in the video). Just don't go looking for 15°, it's an invitation for a hard landing/tail strike ;) 2. It seems the Viggen has a special mode for even shorter landing rolls, so its stopping distance and ranking may actually be different. I'll have to check that. 0:00 Introduction 2:28 Viper short landing tutorial 6:22 Hornet short landing tutorial 9:22 Side-by-side comparison Viper & Hornet short landings 10:24 Landing roll of most modern DCS jets compared
