I have found NO evidence, of LITETING pod ability to Auto adjust the Gain & Level like Im experiencing today in DCS A-10C. When Im working on targets and clouds near by, Im about to Quit the mission, because this bug will spoil my enjoy from the mission. A-10C_LITENING_IR_BUG.trk This bug can be found across entire range of DCS IR sensors. EDGE OF CLOUD (Black&White BUG ): THEN I SLEW UP A LITTLE (now without the cloud its correct again):

ATFLIR_UNDESIGNATE_from_SCENE_then-slew_to_WP.trk When ATFLIR is at SCENE mode and UNDESIGNATE is pressed it will make snowplow mode (according to a1-f18ac-746-100-atflir-principles-of-operation I think point mode should be engaged (diamond)). But this is not the reported bug yet... -> Then if you designate a waypoint as a TGT and press TDC SLEW, it will make INR SCENE mode - this mode cannot be made by any other method. -> Then if UNDESIGNATE is pressed, it will become Snowplow SCENE = first bug, if you pressed UNDESIGNATE again, it will go to designated SCENE mode - which will be NOT ground stabilized and will drift away as snowplow mode = second bug. The Snowplow mode now cannot be angaged by pressing UNDESIGNATE = third bug. To do so, you have to press TDC to gound stabilize the drifting diamond and then press UNDESIGNATE. ->

When you have slaved ATFLIR to waypoint, TGT boxed on HSI or SA page (ATFLIR diamond), and you want to slew designation - so IF you will press slew command to any side before actualy pressing TDC button, than your point INR track will change to snowplow mode and will run away from target area. This need to be fixed, and slew command need to only slew designation. ADVICE for players at current BUG situation: To successfully slew, YOU HAVE TO NOT PRESS SLEW BEFORE TDC PRESS. If you press TDC and only then SLEW, it will work fine ATFLIR_slew-at-WP-boresight_tdc-depr_slew.trk

When you designate target by ATFLIR, and cycle through SCENE or AUTO modes, then pressing single UNDESIGNATE (not to engage VVSLV), ATFLIR will stay in INR diamond designation - only the boxed TGT will change to WPT as seen on picture bellow. THIS BUG IS AGAINST THE ED HOW ATFLIR SHOULD WORK, BUT I THINK THING THAT SNOWPLOW MODE SHOULD BE POSSIBLE TO ENGAGE ONLY FROM VVSLV MODE AND THIS REPORTED BUG IS ACTUALLY WAY IT SHOULD WORK IRL - unfortunately I have no evidence for that - You can help to find some. ATFLIR Manual: a1-f18ac-746-100-atflir-principles-of-operation is mentioning, that undesignate from designated target commands ATFLIR to point. null

When Mk82 / 83 / 84 selected, target designated (CCRP mode active) and then if you press UNDESIGNATE at any of ATFLIR track modes, or without them -> ATFLIR will imediately SLEW hundreds miles away instead of following computed CCIP point. Works fine for other types of weapons. ATFLIR_not_floowing_bomb_CCIP.trk

1) Acquisition box is completely missing (from day DCS ATFLIR release) when engaging or adjusting auto track. From video bellow can be seen, how it is changing its size while trying to acquire the contrast shape to track. It is also mentioned as a picture at ATFLIR Manual: a1-f18ac-746-100-atflir-principles-of-operation. 2) Pressing and holding TDC button for offset is wrong in DCS. There is no tiny little cross, and ATFLIR offset focus is cross centered. OFFSET behaviour also here, in very well known video... little horizontaly stretched, but still good enough.

My question for all Hornet users and players: DO YOU THINK, DCS HORNET HAVE ENOUGH RUDDER RESPONSE IN ITS CURRENT FLIGHT MODEL??? Can you do same things as these guys -- without asymetric thrust -- : Just if you fly straight and apply full rudder, the nose will slide at the start about 4 deg to side and seconds after only 3 degress off the flight path. Over all the plane will still be flying almost straight ahead without rolling or yawing because the flight computer will be against you, even if FCS GAIN OVERRIDE switch engaged of paddle pressed.

In "MANY" DCS Hornet missions in editor # of CHaffs and Flares is LOW, ...check numbers in mission editor or in mission on MFD page... PLEASE ED, FIX THIS- NOT only for player Hornet, but for all AI Hornets in missions as well. THX BVR 8vs8 BFM MiG-29 missions ACM 4 vs 4 MiG-29 Any Hornet 1989 mission is 30 Flares less DACT Gauntlet Magnum Force Caucasus FA-18C Defensive Systems.miz - Really funny that here you have just 30 CHAFFs and 15 FLAREs Red Flag Iron Hand ... ... null

As title say. Really STUPID action can result from this bug, if two tankers fly near by one is low on fuel with "RTB on bingo fuel" but the AI will command to refuel at nearest tanker instead of RTB. Bingo tankBINGO RTB BUG.trker is parasiting on next tanker

Track needed, do you remeber?

Fw-190D opossite issue. Wheels spin Too Fast. Bf109 OK.

Yep, still there. Mustang_wheel_rot_speed_BUG.trk

Nope Not true, must have been just a glitch. Sorry. JDAMs are OK for now.

Now in 2.9, the power to JDAMs is down not only selecting Gun, but ANY weapon store. JSOWs are OK, they stay powered when selecting other wpn stores.

Hmmmm, strange ... today just tried the carrier departure on both DCS platforms ... both went well. I expect that even rest of my reported bugs could be just a glitch.

DCS OB 2.8.8.43489 1) Raven 4-1 AI lead is ready for CAT 2 launch, altough Im called to taxi there, and he will never takeoff. I need to takoff first and than he suddenly show him self from nowhere 2) Tanker S-3B practice with 500lbs fuel to take - AI will stick with tanker hose forewer Im unable to call him off to also take 500 of fuel. I burned there alot of precious fuel! At the end I was forced to call Im done with practice altought I was impossible to do that. 3) Voice over given CASE III Final Bearing 211° is NOT the real in game one, in fact it is a reciprocal heading of ship. Very nicely made mission, but these bugs will spoil most of enjoyment

Last night, same issue here, by F10 command to my wingmen I give him order to JSOW attack ... AI then flew south of Mother and than back North without PIG away.

Have any of you experiencing repeated (around 2 minutes interval) system32\cmd.exe window popup over DCS game for a sec and then dissappears. No error messages stay up. Is this OK? Can the cmd window be minimezed from start to not popup over DCS? Edit: the interval is equal to ATIS information.

High Tacan SOF.trkThe BUG here is that running EPU should support most of vital avionics and hydraulics (engine off). Buses Lost: 1) Non-essential DC 2) Essential DC (This results in loss of power to fuel boost and transfer pumps, CARA, ECM, and FCR and power for normal weapon arming/release including selective jettison.) Equipment Lost while running EPU: (REFS-REFS) R) Radar Altimeter (CARA) R) Recce Pod (236) E) ECM (184) E) EW CMS F) FCR F) Fuel Pumps (Boost/Transfer) S) SMS Arm/Release Power S) S-J Now in DCS, giro is completely off, no FMP, no navigation, no TACAN, just speed, BARO altimeter and radios. Which is in contradiction of what we can see in two popular real life examples of Engine off landing we can found on Youtube. Another BUG with EPU: According to EMERGENCY MANUAL, running JFS is increasing used Hydrazine. 8nm, 40% w JFS (45% w/o) 4nm, 20% w JFS (25% w/o) In DCS now, it doesnt matter, after same amount of time, EPU used same amount of hydrazine, with or w/o JFS running. And one another: according to EMER PROC guides, REDUCING CONTROL SURFACE MOTIONS WILL REDUCE USAGE OF HYDRAZINE. - NOT IN DCS.

EPU shutdown BUG weight on wheels reported 3/4 year ago here: Edit: First reported in 2019: - STILL INVESTIGATING

Is in my track everything OK with EPU support of F-16 systems? Is is ok to EPU shutdown when weight on wheels? Some Avionics going off,... not seeing PFM on HUD for example... What exactly is EPU powering / supporting? Here is my track of High Key flameout landing at Nellis with engine shut down and EPU operating. High Tacan SOF.trk

Target inside of radar outline box is not exactly representing scan limits. There are blind areas inside of box, where contact will not be detected. As I mentioned 2 years ago... still same BUG we have today. AZ-EL_scan_outline_BUG.trk

When time will come...

@BIGNEWY Hello there, I will just repeat abovementioned question for just case that it was forgotten to answer from ED side. It's has been many years from Hornet first release, so ... Any news about other damage model than just texture scratches or completely destroyed plane with wings ripped off - simply said.

We're important topic for hornet defense, to adjust FLARE effectiveness where it should be. Now with current engine heat signitures (even when idle) is Hornet one of most vulnerable fighter, against IR guided missiles, in DCS. Flare cartridge depleted very quickly even with effective programs. On top of that, Preemptive flare defensive ejection is not simulated in DCS.
