Military jets and ILS
Posted: Fri Nov 05, 2004 6:27 amDoes military jets (F-16s, F-15s or Tomcats), use ILS when landing? Or does the pilot land the aircraft manually?

What jrpilot is talking about is the meatball, but what he said is way off. Download rbco-11.zip to get the gauge for that.
Also, get the Waikito 3.0 if you're into carriers, and make sure you get arrestor cables 2.2 also.

or other approaches as necessary to get down.
Larger military jets, such as KC-135, C-130, etc.
routinely land ILS, VOR/DME, TACAN, RNAV(GPS) or
whatever it takes.
