   The SH-60 Bravo’s Secret Weapon Wasn’t the Helicopter (Part II)

   Scott and Roger are joined by former Navy SH-60 Bravo pilot Eric Reidelbach, for the start of a Cold War and post-Cold War ASW series segment on LAMPS. The episode focuses on how the helicopter was not just an aircraft, but part of an integrated shipborne anti-submarine system. They cover the airframe, the crew relationship, the shipboard workflow, and the sensors that made the platform effective. Hosted on Acast.

   Air Combat Sim: Inside the Flight Sim Rabbit Hole with Rob and Stewmanji (Episode 1)

   The future of military flight simming is modular, community-built, and a lot more immersive than most people realize. Rob and Eric "Stewmanji" break down why the hobby is in a golden age - from force feedback and 3D-printed cockpit parts to the platforms, campaigns, and community projects that are changing how you fly at home. Eric shares how a Naval Academy grad and former SH-60 Bravo pilot went from helicopter cockpits to DCS, Falcon BMS, IL-2 Korea, and a growing pile of joysticks, throttles, and custom hardware. Along the way, they dig into what makes modern combat sim hardware so compelling, why single-player and multiplayer each serve different needs, and how the right setup can completely change the feel of aircraft like the F-4, F-14, F-16, and even warbirds.
