Thank you very much for purchasing Miltech Simulations M2K-C.

At Miltech Simulations, we continue innovating. This time, we present to you the First Fourth-Gen aircraft with a functional Weapons System in MSFS.

The M2K-C is a multirole, single-engine, delta-wing, fourth-generation jet fighter inspired by French aircraft design.

This aircraft boasts impressive maneuverability, speed, and versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of missions, including air superiority, ground attack, and reconnaissance. Its design is sleek and agile, reflecting the French emphasis on aerodynamic efficiency and performance.

M2K-C is powered by a single engine providing 54.0 kN Thrust, with a single-stage Afterburner boosting the aircraft to 84 kN (19,000 Lbf). Maximum speed is Mach 2.2 at 60,000 ft, and a range of roughly 850 Nautical Miles, which can be extended with external tanks.

The M2K-C can conduct multirole air combat operations, ranging from Aerial Bombing, Air-to-Air combat, Air Support, among others. It is quite prevalent in Dog Fighting, as the Delta Wing provides a very high sustained turn rate, and the ability to perform instantaneous turns.

This product is once again the result from a successful partnership with Maryadi, a talented developer who has worked in very well-known projects since the FSX Days. As result of such collaboration, we now present our rendition of the M2K-C for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024.

We hope you enjoy the product,

Miltech Simulations.

Active frequency and standby frequency are also displayed on a small LCD Display on the front panel, near the AoA Indicator.

Entering a new COM1 Frequency

1. Locate the COMM Radio Panel on the left side console.

2. Press the CONF Button to input a new frequency.

3. Enter the desired frequency, excluding any periods. A total of six digits must be entered.

4. Press the CONF Button to confirm input. If the frequency is valid, COM1 will now tune the new frequency inputted, and the previous frequency will automatically become the Standby Freq. If the entered frequency is invalid, no change will occur.

Countermeasures (Flares) are automatically loaded onto the aircraft upon first spawn. There are a limited number of flare pods loaded onto the aircraft, and as such these will run out after extended use. Flares will be automatically reloaded onto the aircraft as soon as the aircraft is stationary on the ground - no manual action is required. Flares are modeled for cosmetic purposes only. Single manual flare drops, as well as flare programs are supported.

Current Flare Count is displayed on the HUD, for more information see Head-Up Display (HUD)

Flares and Countermeasures are controlled from the Countermeasures Panel, just under the INS Panel, on the right side of the aircraft cockpit.

1. Jammer Operational Mode Selector: INOP

2. Jammer master Switch: INOP

3. Radar Warning Receiver master switch: INOP

4. D2M IR launch detector master switch: INOP

Flare Release Operations

1. Locate the Countermeasures Panel on your aircraft.

2. Switch the Flare Dispenser Master Switch to the SA or AU Position.

3. Use SA to release flares individually. A limited amount of flares are loaded onto the aircraft, HUD symbology will automatically display flare count. Single keybind toggle will deploy a single flare.

4. If on AU, use knob in the right to select program. A means ARRET, program is off. Any other number indicates a different program to use.

In order to use Missiles, you must first load them. Refer to Loading Weapons to familiarize yourself with the loading procedures. Please also familiarize yourself with the PCA and PPA panels here PCA and PPA Panels

Assuming your missiles are now loaded (S530 or R550s) and you are in the air, follow these procedures to prepare for and shoot missiles. Please be aware that target tracking and locking is currently unavailable, though planned for a future update. After shooting, missile trajectories are random, only to provide the illusion of tracking targets.

1. Switch on the Red master arm switch in PCA.

2. Use the PCA (lower row of buttons) to select the weapon type to use.

   1. MAG represents R550, 530 represents S530 missiles.

   2. If the weapon selected is loaded, S (SELECTED) will light up on the button. After a few seconds, P (PRET) displays to indicate weapon is armed.

3. HUD will automatically display the Missile HUD Mode. This mode provides extra information, such as angle of attack and G load. At this time, this mode is rather basic, but we have plans to expand the symbology in the future to display tracked and locked targets.

4. On the PPA, Select MIS (Radar Tracking Missile) for S530, select MAG (IR Tracked Missile) for R550. P lights up to indicate that the weapon is Ready (“Pret”).

5. Use keybind TOGGLE WATER RUDDER to shoot missiles.

As it is common in MSFS, most of the real functions of the HOTAS system (Trim, Spoilers, Shooting weapons, etc.) can be easily keybinded to hardware given the difficulties of interacting with the physical stick and throttle models in MSFS. Refer to our keybinding guide here Keybinding Guide

1. Nose Wheel Steering: Enables/Disables Nose Wheel Steering. At this time, this function cannot be keybinded - however, keybinding will be enabled in the near future.

2. Hide Stick Clickspot: Hides the stick for easier visibility of the IFF Panel.

1. Hide Throttle clickspot: Hides the throttle for better access to the radar panel.

2. Spoilers Toggle: Extends/retracts the aircraft spoilers. It can also be keybinded.

Loading of Weapons can only occur while the aircraft is on the ground and with the parking brake on. The system is designed in a "realistic manner" - there is no such thing as infinite ammo, or any way to reload while in the air. You must return to the ground and manually reload weapons on the aircraft.

Common HUD Symbols

Pictured here are the most common HUD Symbology. Other symbols that are mode-specific (eg. missile symbology, INS Navigation, Bombs, approach, etc.) may not be pictured here, but are explained in the mode subpages.

1. Altimeter: Displays altitude (BARO/RAD/MIN ALT), in Ft, depending on the mode selected on HUD Controls. When selected mode is BARO (Default mode), barometric altitude will be displayed. If RAD is selected, Radar Altitude will be displayed. When MIN ALT is selected, altimeter indicator will display "altitude to selected Min Alt". For more information, read "Altitude Display Selector" and "Minimum Altitude Selector" below.

2. Gun Sight: Indicates the aiming point for the aircraft gun system. The gun sight is displayed when the GUN ARM switch is on.

3. Horizon Line: Displays the relative position of the horizon.

4. Flight Path Vector Marker/Acceleration Vector: Indicates the flight path vector of the aircraft with respect to earth. Chevrons located on both sides indicate the longitudinal acceleration - displays aircraft energy state visually. When chevrons and FPV are aligned, the aircraft is flying at a constant speed.

5. Cannon Rounds: Displays the current count of ammunition loaded in the aircraft, for the left and right cannons respectively. Displayed when the GUN ARM switch is on.

6. Flare Count: Displays the current count of flares loaded in the aircraft. Displayed when master countermeasures switch is set to SA (Semiautomatic) or AU (Automatic)

7. Rotation Pitch Indicator: sets a 12deg pitch when aligned with the horizon on takeoff, for optimal rotation and tail clearance. It displays on Weight on Wheels condition. On takeoff, you should be aiming for pitch no greater than 14deg (place pitch indicator at, or slightly above horizon) to avoid a tailstrike.

8. Attack Mode Data: Displays aircraft G load and aircraft AOA for use in dogfights, when weapon systems are being used. Displayed when the GUN ARM switch is on, when Bomb CCIP Mode is enabled, or Missile Modes are enabled.

9. Machmeter: Indicates aircraft speed in Mach.

10. Indicated Air Speed: Displays indicated aircraft speed, in Knots.

11. Heading Scale: Displays current aircraft heading.

1. Jx Box: Longitudinal Acceleration Vector on the ground displays on Weight on Wheels condition. Displays the coefficient of acceleration, from 0.56 to -0.43 when the aircraft is on the ground.

HUD Control Panel

1. HUD Declutter Switch: Used to hide traffic and other secondary information on HUD.

2. Target Wingspan Selector: INOP

3. EFF Switch: INOP

4. Gun Piper Selector: INOP

Special HUD Symbology

• Traffic on HUD: Diamonds will display on HUD tracking emissions from radar systems (generally AI or Multiplayer Aircraft).

  • Traffic will only display if traffic radar is set to ON in the Radar Control Unit. More information , under the Radar Control Unit section.

  • Numbers under the diamonds indicate distance to the targets, in nautical miles.

• Approach Brackets: Due to peculiarities and difficulties associated with landing a delta-wing aircraft, the M2K-C features HUD Symbology to assist in landing. The square brackets (" ] " and " [ ") indicate approximately a 4-degree glideslope, that should be aligned with the runway touchdown zone.

  • APPR HUD Mode will display based on the following conditions: Landing gear is down, and APPR mode is selected on the Weapons Control Panel (PCA). A yellow P will light up on APPR Button on PCA Panel when this HUD mode is enabled.

  • The pilot shall aim to align the Flight Path Marker and acceleration vector chevrons with the square approach brackets. At the correct landing speed (around 145-150kts), the pilot should be descending at an AOA of 14 degrees, approximately.

• INS Navigation: If a flight plan has been entered on the INS, PCN Selector is in NAV mode, and the DEST waypoint is valid, symbology will display on HUD to indicate the bearing and distance to the selected DEST waypoint.

  • The "inverted house-shaped icon" on the horizon indicates bearing to the selected waypoint. If the icon is above the horizon, the waypoint is ahead of the aircraft. If it is under the horizon, the waypoint is behind the aircraft.

  • Distance to waypoint is displayed on the right side of the HUD. In this example, "8.7N 2", indicating 8.7 nautical miles to DEST waypoint #2

• Bomb Symbology (CCIP): If a bomb (MK82 or GBU) is selected and ready for deployment (PREP), the CCIP Bomb symbology will automatically display on the HUD.

  • This will render a possible impact location as calculated based on aircraft speed, altitude and attitude, and a launch vector that connects this target area with the aircraft´s FPV.

  • On the bottom left corner, selected weapon type, as well as G-load and aircraft AoA is displayed.

• Missile Symbology: If a missile (S530 or R550) is selected and armed, this mode will automatically display.

  • At this time, this mode is rather basic, but we have plans to expand the symbology in the future to display tracked and locked targets.

  • On the bottom left corner, selected weapon type, as well as G-load and aircraft AoA is displayed.

3. Autopilot Altitude Select Switch (AFF): Upon selection, the autopilot system will automatically increase or decrease the altitude, at an initial rate of +/- 1500fpm, until it reaches the target altitude as selected on the altitude selection drums. Use the Trim Up/Trim Down switches on the left console to adjust vertical speed. Note that trim up/down keybinds will not work for this, must use switch in the cockpit

Miltech Simulations M2K-C features the very first semi-functional Weapons system on any 4th-Gen Fighter in MSFS. The weapons system is designed to support Air-to-Air and Air-to-Ground operations, with some degree of interactability with other aircraft.

The system is limited in various ways due to current MSFS hard-to-bypass limitations. This is just the first stepping stone in a long road of continuous innovation with the final objective of fully fledged combat training simulation in MSFS.

Due to MSFS Marketplace rules, weapons systems only fully available on product sold from our Store and 3rd Party distributors. MS Marketplace gets a more limited rendition of these systems, as per the table below.

3. Small Needle: Always displays bearing to the VOR Station selected.

The M2K-C features a fully functional Inertial Navigation System (INS). Inertial Navigation Systems rely exclusively on the use of gyroscopes and accelerometers to determine the location of the aircraft, and follow routes on a flight plan.

Miltech Simulations has created a Flight Planning tool that will facilitate the process for those pilots looking at following waypoint-to-waypoint flight plans. A few shortcuts have also been implemented for those users looking to perform a quick alignment.

Flight Plans on INS Systems are entirely coordinate-based, the aircraft does not follow typical approach or takeoff procedures using fixes, nor uses them while onroute. Instead, each point on the flightplan is determined by a latitude and longitude inserted into the INS. For simplicity and proof of concept, we have limited routes to 10 waypoints (from 01 to 10), however this may be extended as required in future updates. Waypoint 00 will always display current location, regardless of alignment status.

Inertial Navigation Computer

1. Main LCD Display - Left Side: Displays Latitude (North/South)/Altitude in Feet/Bearing/ETA, as per mode selected.

2. Main LCD Display - Right Side: Displays Longitude (West/East)/Altitude in Meter/Distance in Nm/Ground Speed, as per mode selected.

3. Bottom LCD Display - Left Side: Displays PREP (Preparation) waypoint selected. PREP are waypoints selected for modification. Range from 00 to 10.

4. Bottom LCD Display - Right Side:

Additionally, the following knobs control the Operational Mode and Operational Selector:

Operational Selector Panel

1. PCN Selector: Selects INS Panel mode:

   1. VEI: Standby Mode. Allows for input of waypoints, but not suitable for alignment or navigation.

   2. CAL: Not Modeled.

   3. TST: Not Modeled.

Flight Planning

1. Access . This is our new portal for Flight Planning, designed for INS Systems. This will be used across all future INS-based aircraft. The website is quite basic at the time, but will get you the necessary info to enter manually into INS System. Sync to Aircraft may be an option available in the future.

2. Click on the map to add Waypoints. Start with Waypoint 01, which must be your Departure Airport. Continue adding route waypoints up to waypoint 10, which must be your target location. Use the map search bar and mouse buttons to navigate, and add waypoints based off your mission purpose.

   1. Unfortunately at this time we do not have a good provider of Aviation Charts, so Map Layers are limited to satellite and street maps.

1. You may move waypoints by clicking and dragging. Once your flightplan is complete, take a look at the table on the bottom right hand side - your waypoint coordinates will be displayed in the format expected by the aircraft INS System. You may rename your flightplan, and download as CSV from here. This website will not store flight plans.

2. Copy and manually enter your Waypoints on the aircraft's INS System.

Alignment Procedure

Aligning the INS is always required, regardless if aircraft has started C&D or Ready for Takeoff. The system requires the pilot to enter an initial alignment waypoint manually - otherwise, alignment will not be executed.

Aircraft will require realignment if battery power is set to OFF at any time, as this action will erase the memory and restart the system.

Instant alignment is available, however, it still requires the user to enter an initial waypoint 01.

1. Turn your battery switch ON. INS System will automatically initialize, which takes approx 5 seconds.

2. Verify is set to VEI (STBY), is set to N (Normal) and set to L/G

3. By default, PREP Point 00 is selected. This is the aircraft current Latitude and Longitude. Generally, an INS System would be unable to provide this info without alignment, however, for simplicity this is provided as "Last Position Registered".

1. Switch INS Parameter Knob to ALT. Enter current Barometric altitude, in feet or meter. Press #1 on Keypad to enter in Feet, #3 on Keypad to enter in Meter. Then press INS to insert or ERR to Erase.

2. Set System for INS Alignment.

   1. Set PCN Selector to ALN (for realistic alignment, 2-3 minutes) OR ALCM (for instant alignment)

   2. Set Operational Mode Knob to STS

Navigating Procedures

Inertial Navigation is executed from waypoint-to-waypoint, coordinate to coordinate.

1. System must be correctly aligned. Refer to Aligning Procedure above.

2. must be on the "NAV" (Navigation) Position.

   • VEI Poisition is "STBY" - entering waypoints is possible, but not suitable for navigation. ALN and ALCM Positions are only used for alignment. Other pages are not supported on this product.
