Is there any way to send the sort of datalinks you send in the F-16 in BMS, i.e. send a datalink and it'll instantly be stored by the receiving plane?

It works in mp and you can receive txt from JTACs in mp/AI as well depending on the equipment that they carry.

Those red triangles then, can you have several pending simultaneously?

On another note, what system is it that's used for sending datalinks? Link 16? What upcoming modules could I expect to feature that in DCS? Sort of dull to only have A-10Cs linked up right now.

You can, the image below you can see two different target triangles (red triangles).
