I did some testing and it is confirmed that the PP mode has a bug: target will not be displayed on the MHD, unless a TOO target is designated first. Once a TOO target is designated, you can return to PP mode and the target location will be correctly read from the flight plan.
Release of weapons is then not inhibited (except the usual restrictions in AUTO mode)...

Thank You Dino! I will wait for update too : -).
Some of testing from Multiplayer yesterday:

Actually that tanker doesn't exist yet. That isn't an S-3, it's a C-3 and has a completely new fuselage, though it would reuse the wings, engines, vertical tail and horizontal tail.
It's Lockheed's proposal for a new C.O.D. aircraft that will use the S-3's at Davis Monthan A.B. and rebuild them into the C-3. Just the same, I do know what you meant and I'm looking forward to the release of his S-3; Which I do realize is still a ways off, but it is coming along nicely based on the images at his website.

I know, Dino finished project of F-35A/B/C for FSX and started to develop only P3D version (pity!).
Today I was on the secret ; ) presentation of RL F-35 Lightning II simulator done by Lockheed.
Great and lucky day!
Now I see how good work Dino did with this model and TacPack version (I spent many hours with Dino's F-35)!
btw. "real" FM of F-35A is very, very easy, more easy than in FSX : ].
Aircraft is very stable but dynamic and intuitive.

Thanks for the appreciation!
The new version I am working on is for P3Dv2 only - and it is based on the latest material I could find (mostly Full Mission Simulator videos and official LM / armed forces powerpoint slides) - it should be a definite improvement over the current one.
P3Dv2.5 has been chosen for three reasons:
- Better frame rates on the new, more complex visual model
- Possibility to have multiple sensor video onto both the VC and 2D MFD (including subportals and full screen) - this is VERY easy to to in P3Dv2
- Possibility to have proper A-S radar images easily (native support)
- Lack of time to develop a FSX and a P3D2.5 version
Once ready, I will have a look at a FSX downgrade (i.e. getting rid of the P3Dv2 only features)... I have already tried it, as theoretically it should work (new commands would just be ignored)...but no joy. The MFD does not work... I'll come back to that later on.

Dino, I wanted to migrate to P3D when it gets to 64 bit, but you make it difficult for me to wait! Will you implement the presentation of the Distributed Aperture System image on the HMD?

At the moment, I believe I should be able to present only the TFLIR view on the HMD - that is because (due to my non-existent C++ skills) I cannot write a controller for a second sensor camera... and I am having Tacpack to control the TFlir view.... so for the moment DAS will be forward looking only. I have not tried it yet as the priority is to deliver the updated HMD.

Dino, having he TFLIR view is already very nice.probably a feature not yet to be found on any other sim plane!
YoYo, did you notice that the VTOL controls in Dino's plane work like those in the LM simulator?
