FWIW I flew with a pair of 7x35 wide angle binocs in the F4. With a
radar lockon, select heat, fly the steering dot to the center of the
scope, and then the bogey was inside the gunsight reticle. Now the
binocs allowed ID at way beyond normal tallyho ranges. Also FWIW I
suggested to the VWingCo of the first ever A10 wing they try Bushnell's
1-4x variable power rifle scope to employ the 30mm at longer ranges.
The 2-mil pipper is just too big for use at such ranges even though the
gun is affective way out there. I guess that suggestion was 'filed';
never heard of it even being tried out.
