EXCLUSIVE PLUGIN FEATURE : INTERACTIVE KNEEBOARD
​

As a new and unique VAICOM PRO option, the Interactive Kneeboard extension takes notes of relevant tactcial information exchanged during communications in the mission. AWACS directives, ATC readings and JTAC 9-lines are clear examples, with Air Tasking Order (ATO) data such as units callsigns and contact frequencies supplemented by AOCS-provided position and ranging information. What's more, the included Dictation Mode allows use of speech recognition to write your own ad-hoc notes on the notepad at any time during the mission. 

​With its automatic tab browsing option, slider-controlled page opacity, and reference key dictionary on each category page, this is an advanced tool for greatly enhancing mission effectiveness - an indispensable add-on for all VAICOM PRO users!

AIRIO DIALOG EXTENSION FOR F-14AB
​

No more menus! The slow and screen-filling wheel menu for Jester turns a potentially professional-grade F-14 simulation into an arcade game. VAICOM PRO's AIRIO Dialog extension replaces the sluggish menu wheel with fast, accurate, and realistic dialog interaction with your RIO backseater. AIRIO provides maximum immersion and speed when close flight crew cooperation is critical for mission success. All Jester functions provided by the wheel are available and more, including weapons selection, radar control and instant manual tuning of TACAN, Datalink and AN/ARC-182 frequencies. No more blocking views, stepping through options, wrestling with the keyboard: just talk to your RIO. AIRIO is 100% keyboard- and menu-free. Even ICS HOT MIC functionality is readily provided. The various on-screen hints options and the community-generated kneeboards get you used to talking to Jester in no time. Once you have AIRIO, you're never going back!
