"No Mig-21": not true, Mig-21PFM could do it, but clarification should be asked from Magnitude 3 if the other versions of Mig-21 in Yugoslav service had the modifications to carry it, especially since one of the SMEs is an active pilot and instructor on Mig-29 and the Mig-21 airplanes were taken out of the service few years ago. E.g. it's a well known fact that Yugoslavia modified their Mig-21s to level that it could use domestic IADS instead of soviet one, by replacing the DL components on receiving end. Mid 70s this was AS-74, and mid 80s AS-84. I point you to the book "Nebo na dlanu", written by Rajica Bošković. I also would like to point out that at this time development of domestic guided missile also called Grom was in progress. If you have technical reasons for Mig-21bis not being able to guide it, I recommend you to post a topic in Mig-21 section. Mig-29: true, this missile was never used. The only option for any other precision weapons on 9.12 was the upgrade offered in 1996, as a part of the overhaul, which included Kh-29T, however this upgrade is not modeled for the time being. Source: Mirčeta Jokanović interview at TV Front. However this upgrade never took place due to the internal political factors.

Pre designation gives you correction for either wind or target movement. You do this by holding lock button, putting reticule on target, and releasing lock button. After 2 seconds The correction will have been computed once you place the reticule on the target a second time. It is better then say MiG-23, where it is required to keep reticule exactly on target for a few seconds. After releasing lock button laser ranges and builds mathematical model of where target should be if stationary/no wind in comparison to your speed height and movement. After two seconds the FCS assumes your reticule is on target and produces correction for that position. So when you place reticule a second time and fire, the proper movement/wind correction is calculated. One thing with this is that the calculation only lasts around 8-10 seconds, then you will need to do it again, and is only for that specific target. A stationary target in no wind requires no correction so no pre designate needed. Hmmm? Any MiG-21 with RP-21 radar could guide the missile. It was designed entirely for MiG-21. I think you will find the normal weapon aiming mode very precise. It will be very precise for bombs and gun, rockets will be more precise the faster you are.

And no video of the mig 29 from wags, it is the silent before the storm

It is possible. You should look on the SU-25T Georgian Oil Wars campaign. It comes with the DCS core game. It have a couple of missions for each stage. For example 4 different missions for stage 1, 4 different missions for stage 2 e.t.c.. When you success the mission you will be promoted to one of the next stage missions. If you are fail a mission you will go back to one of the previous stages missions. It set in the campaign manager that if you get 50 points or less for the mission it will roll you back to the previous stage. If you will do more than 50 points than you will be promoted to the next stage. Again, look into the Campaign manager and not into the Mission manager. You can open the SU-25T campaign and loook how it is implemented exactly. Because its a free campaign and you can do with it whatewer you want. You can even change it. The same campaign was redone for Ka-50. So you can also look into this campaign as well. But it is doesn't matter a lot. It is the same campaing but for different aircraft.

The runway is also not level; a significant difference in elevation is visible. The tower was located in a bunker near the runway and is not located to the south like it is today. The open shelters lack camouflage netting. And the grass along the runway could use a bit of mowing.

Если СПО здесь и вправду будет различать работу ГСН ранних амраамов только в упор то это будет... интересно.

Коды от 1111 до 1788 условно описывают частоту повторения импульсов лазерного излучения. Длина волны - это другое и от кодов няз не зависит. У апч не лазерно-лучевое командное, а полуактивное наведение на отраженный сигнал. Х-25 по идее должно быть возможно наводить на лцу апача, но как-то надо понять куда направить ракету чтобы она увидела отраженный сигнал. Поиска лазерного пятна на Шквале няз нет.

No chance. Grom missile is not correct for MiG-21Bis either. No MiG-21 radar could guide that missile, as well as MiG-29. Their role is intercept, nothing to do with precision strike. Only conventional "dumb" ordinance.

Полетел бомбить оппонентов, в районе цели поставил ППМ, решил с помощью радара, найти цели и по ним отбомбить. При подлёте к целям (около 20 миль), а это достаточно большие здания, на радаре, при самом высоком его разрешении, видно только мешанину непонятно чего. В итоге по карте F10, "снял" координаты с цели(одного из зданий), по-быстрому забил стирпоинт в ICP и вопрос решил. Уважаемые вирпилы, подскажите пожалуйста, у F16 на самом деле такой ниочёмный радар по земле, или я чего-то не так делаю? Если так, то какой в нём смысл, зря только страницу на МФД занимает.

aaand fixed, available with the next time HB uploads a build to ED the trigger signal was correctly send to the A2A weapons but the pylon wasnt armed.

I still hold high hopes for the 900ft performance issue some of us have to be resolved. If that happens, it'll be very high on my list of maps I recommend.

For interest sake. The -4 had automatic/manual cowl and oil cooler/Intercooler flaps. ..

Hi already demanded here, I added a map with some airbase in or next to their zone 3 polygon.

Thank you both for your replies, but it really, really shouldn't be this way.

Videos please!

Some may find it unusual that after (many, many) years of DCS enjoyment, I only tried using the Campaign Builder for the first time a few days ago. What I found was shocking and dismaying. I wish to complain in the strongest possible terms regarding the sheer inadequacy of this tool. That the replies I received to a recent forum question about what should be a trivial campaign creation issue involved user-created APIs and delving into the minutae of 3rd party campaign missions just says it all. I won't turn this into an essay about persistent campaign-wide variables and unit status tracking, proper branching support and other essential features for a tool of this nature. Instead I will just point you to what was available in a twenty-six year old product, for an idea of what the functionality a tool of this kind should provide; I'm sure Matt Wagner will be able to provide further details if required. Of course, now it's plainly obvious why all* third party campaigns are, structurally, trivial linear affairs rather than complex, branching and endlessly replayable experiences that, in the hands of talented creators, can rival any dynamic campaign. I think the development effort in creating such a tool would be relatively minor in relation to the enormous benefit it would return in the long run. Certainly I would've put it way ahead of, e.g., the recent very pretty but mostly unnecessary laucher app, in a priority list. * No, not all, but those that aren't involve players writing down codes and jumping through other hoops. And I am continually in awe at what the pro campaign creators produce, especially considering how lacking are the tools at their disposal. Think of what they could achieve with a tool like the one linked to above.

Тем меняется не длина волны, а частота повторения импульсов. В жизни Вихрь нельзя подсветить с другого самолета. Он летит по лучу, то есть ему сразу после пуска нужно попасть в лазерный луч из Шквала и лететь внутри него.

Looks awesome! Would absolutely love an HMAS Tobruk livery, is there a livery template to do this with?

It will be released at September. I feel it in my bones

Apologies for my ignorance but "pre-designate" and "moving targets" is a contradiction in my book. Can someone elaborate what this means? Do I pre-designate a target with an optical sensor (e.g. helmet targeting system)? But why would I then use non-predesignate for stationary targets?

It will not be included in the existing deal, the extra work is quite massive in comparison. Details are unclear at the moment as the B(U) is still out a bit. Focus currently lies on the Early-A. There will be more time to talk about the B(U) later, cheers.

А это неправильно? А вес какой? Температура наружного воздуха?

Вдохновился темой и тоже решил сделать ручку на джой. "Летаю" на "СУ-33" поэтому сделал примерно как там. Изготовление - 3Д печать, шпаклевка, наждачка, грунтовка, покраска.

This is the way.... Seriously. Also, I am not on the latest or second latest version Pimax Play, but rather on version 1.40.4. In this old version of Pimax Play one can not fine adjust Quad views settings - but - Quad views is not enabled in Pimax Play in the Tallmouse Youtube guide above anyway so it doesn't matter. So, no Quadviews box ticked in Pimax Play - but rather installing Mbucchias Quad Views has been a problem solver for me. For those who doesn't know - the video shows how to use this "external" (not Pimax Play version) of Quad Views from Mbucchia and then use the Quad Views companion app from Tallymouse to adjust and fine adjust the Quad views settings. I am probably not on the latest nvidia drivers either, I am using 576.88 - but I don't think that matters much really. But following the Youtube guide above here - what a difference! It seems there are a lot of steps to follow in the video, but it's pretty easy. I skipped the part that makes it possible to launch DCS from the Pimax Play menus - I just start the DCS launcher instead.
