Great shots Chuck.
What happens when the missile impacts, is there an explosion?

Thanks Larry, I've only experimented a little bit but, if you shoot at an AI aircraft there is an explosion........unfortunately, the aircraft does not go down in flames :-/
So far as I can tell, the ground ordinance produces no explosion......just an audible bang.

When you stop and think about it, that's actually kinda handy - you don't have to load up a fresh one

Awesome shots Chuck.
Also, one thing I've always wondered about this bird, what happens after you eject?

Flip the master arm switch, (located on the left forward constrol panel, under the multi function display) then select AA (just above the master arm switch). You may have to push the "W" key (or use the multi function display) to cycle weapons to which missile you want to shoot. Now, whatever button you have assigned to "incrementally close flaps" is the missile trigger. You can fire until the current weapon is expended, then you must select another weapon.
Hope this gets you shooting

Now that seems a bit unorthodox to me, using the flaps key. Why not the brakes, like several other designs, which has no affect on anything while airborne? With the inclusion of firing weapons on so many military models these days, it seems there is a need for a standardized key for guns. And where there is a switch to select bombs or rockets, the default drop object key would suffice. Both can be mapped to a particular button on a joystick.

Relooking at number three - what's that screen shaped device on the right wing - forget your laptop?

It's the
cowl flaps key, which obviously has no use for a jet so, it kind of works......I think you can re-map it if you want.
