  1. Thanks for the clarification!
  2. Nice that i found this thread, i thought i have missed something because my AIM-7M just gone stupid after launch. So i tested agains a Su-24 and can confirm: - me in F-14B shooting AIM-7M(Jester STT lock, never loosing it) at Su-24 -> my AIM-7M goes stupid as soon as it leaves the rail - me in F-14B shooting AIM-7M(Jester STT lock, never loosing it) at Su-24 with ECM = off(advanced waypoint actions) -> my AIM-7M lofts, tracks and kills the Su-24 - me replacing the F-14B with the F/A-18 shooting AIM-7M at Su-24 -> my AIM-7M lofts, tracks and kills the Su-24 without the need to turn ECM = off in the advanced waypoint actions So why does the AIM-7M work against jamming targets in the F-18 but the same missile does not work against the same target fired from an F-14B??? What is the difference? What am i missing? F14B_AIM7M_SU24_ECM_OFF.trk F14B_AIM7M_SU24_ECM_ON.trk F18_AIM7M_SU24_ECM_ON.trk
  3. I'm no Mig-21 expert, it's been a while since i read the manuals, but from what i remember the fuel pumps are "just" used to manage correct fuel flow from the tanks to the engine in situations gravity is not enough. From the Mig-21bis flight operations instruction, you turn on the fuel pumps after engine start:
  4. I thought that it works like the current static weather templetes in the ME, you just select one of your liking - summer, hot, clear sky / autumn, rain storm....
  5. As far as i know/understand the problem ED is modelling 2 different Datalink systems/protocols and the DCS engine is limited to 1 system per plane/awacs. So if you make the JF-17 compatible with RED AWACS everyone who plays the JF-17 as BLUE will complain and vice versa. You/we will have to live with that until ED improves this i guess.
  6. I get the point that you can't change MP missions because you're not the admin/mission creator but if the admin told you they use default coalition and that "is the problem" they can't add the E-3 AWACS for the RED side this is nonsense(?), because if you look at the picture: Or i misunderstood what you meant, please ignore me.
  7. HB could work around the problem TRAM/WCSI/SWIP by just doing the A-6A I would prefer atleast an A-6E TRAM - but wouldn't mind if it is newer or totally old school.
  8. I don't have a link right now but i remember PilotMi8 saying that they will not develop the bomb sight for the MI-8. As always, everything is subject to change in DCS - so maybe if they ever overhaul the MI-8 maybe they will do it? But last info i know is: no.
  9. The same for me, download was that fast i didn't even had the time to look how big the update was I guess that says we don't own that campaign - so nothing to patch - but Raven (Elysian Angel) does.
  10. There was a patch announcement yesterday but according to the changelog it was just for one paid(?) DLC campaign. Maybe they thought releasing a patch just for a campaign isn't worth it.
  11. The focus in the video are satellites but it is an interesting explanation how it works.
  12. Hi Kristoffer79, this post of yours + a short track would have been a good bug report. I had some time to test and reproduce the issue. @uboats steps to repruduce: - HUD SOI -> move the HUD targed diamond around -> T5 press(lock target) -> TGP slave -> TGP SOI -> move TGP around -> T5 press(lock target) -> HUD SOI -> you can't move the HUD target diamond anymore, if you reset the target diamond it will recenter but you can't move it The problem seems to be to have 2 SPI(?) - 1 from the HUD target diamond + 1 from the TGP because if you: - HUD SOI -> move the HUD targed diamond around -> T5 press(lock target) -> TGP slave -> TGP SOI -> move TGP around -> HUD SOI T2 press(unlock target) -> TGP SOI -> T5 press(lock target) -> HUD SOI -> HUD target diamond works fine! or in short: - HUD target diamond locked + TGP lock = problem with HUD target diamond any other combination works fine HUD target diamond locked + TGP = fine HUD target diamond + TGP locked = fine Track file attached is on the SYRIA MAP! Video attached showes some combinations working and the problematic combination starts ~50seconds JF-17_HUD+TGP_cursor.trk
  13. @Fri13 +1 But i think we have to wait longer than DCS 3.0 for all of that but i would be gladly wrong on that
  14. Yeah, thats my understanding too. Like the "F-18 buddy tanker"
  15. Could you please supply the requested information/files like asked for in the following thread? I must admit i don't use it often but a quick test on my side showed nothing(i can't reproduce your problem). - HUD SOI moving the cursor around -> ok - resetting the cursor and moving again -> ok - resetting the cursor and moving it up/left/right out of the "visible zone" and back again into the "visible zone" -> ok - resetting the cursor and moving again/moving out of "visible zone" and resetting -> ok - .... I recorded the test so you can check(easier for you than downloading/replaying the track, should be 1440p after YT processing)
  16. But that was his name right? Cole, Virgil Cole While his call sign was "Tiger". Like with Jake "Cool Hand" Grafton .
  17. I have no problems with support missions in DCS, my most flown module is the MI-8 - troop transport, internal cargo, sling load/precise dropping is still challenging and fun. Flying straight or circle to refuel somebody? Today i can only see MP for that role, maybe later with the dynamic campaign this will change. But that ED needs to provide a better infrastructure in DCS for many features is urgent, Reconnaissance for example. You can do ELINT missions with the Viggen but in the end it is not very usefull in the current DCS environment.
  18. I'm really glad HB has announced to make the A-6! Free for the Team!!!! Considering the KA-6 question, i think i would try it but i think i would get bored by it(not a big MP guy). I would be interested to know if ED(HB?) will update the jtac to use the "radar transponder" so the position of that transponder is shown on the A-6 radar and you can set up an OffsetPoint from the transponder position to attack the target.(for targets not visible on radar and bad weather) I know, it's to early to answer that question but still....
  19. Yeah but we had also this statement from Cobra/HB: So i hoped for an announcement that they got the license and the FF A-6 will be a thing. Looks like i/we have to wait a "little" longer. I'm going to watch the movie "Flight of the Intruder" now to fight my depression.
  20. It would be cool but if it will happen or if it is just the cloud showcase video we will see in less than 15min. EDIT: Nice video, cool shots but sadly no A-6 FF module confirmation But the couple scenes with the A-6 are real beauty shots
  21. For sure would be a nice addition to the Jeff.
  22. So HB, it's confirmed?
  23. Have a look at page 1 of this thread, the first post of uboats:
  24. Not all problems must be software problems, so no massive face palm but an easy fix it was.
