That worked quite well. Thank you!

I have been having an issue on PG when I start cold. I autostart, append some glide bombs, wait for them to warm up, and drop them on a point. They reliably get in the vicinity of the target but miss by a notable margin. Linked below is a demonstration video (sorry for the framerate, the capture software is being a pain today). This is only an issue when I start cold. It is not an issue if I start in the air with the bombs already loaded. When I start already in the air, the bombs land on-point every time. What am I missing? This used to work fine for me. Is there an issue with the autostart on PG that I need to be aware of? Maybe the INS is wrong? Thank you! Demonstration Video:

Unfortunately, this seems to just be broken atm. However, the anti-ship cruise missiles seem to work just fine! (since they don't have to render textures at range)

I can confirm that I also cannot see radar contacts right in front of me. Even when making sure they are slightly above me in altitude.

Here is me and a few friends demonstrating the issue. The perspective is from a 3rd party, the two people talking are each in a 25T. We run them into eachother. :)

Is it possible to use either of the cruise missiles in a fire-and-forget fashion? Even COO mode seems to require human intervention for terminal guidance.

This seems to be fixed as of the latest open beta patch. I was able to rearm and refuel using a Su-33 at an airfield it didn't spawn at. Thanks ED!

I'm having an issue when using the cruise missile in the Instant Action - Man In The Middle on Caucuses. The wide view via the datapod is not loading buildings or other items. Only, what appears to be water, and smoke from buildings. When switching to narrow view, the buildings load. Is there a graphics setting I need to change? If not, could this get looked at and patched? Here is a short video demonstration that also shows my selected graphics settings:

Does it work correctly for you if you leave the laser on auto? If so, your issue is with how you are activating the laser. If you have the laser on manual, make sure you turn it on and leave it on while the bomb is falling, otherwise the bomb won't have a point to track to.

I am having this issue as well. I cannot rearm at airfields I didn't spawn at. I'm flying multiplayer with several friends. The FC3 aircraft reliably cannot rearm and non-FC3 craft can reliably rearm at blue airfields they didn't' take off from. I have seen this on Caucuses and Syria. I am playing on the Open Beta.

They should deff fix the chalks on the old Kuznetsov. It feels real lazy those don't work. The good thing is, with the super brake on the 33, you don't really need them to take off properly.

I'm real excited to try out the changes to the R-27 today. Glad it got a realism pass.

I'm a bit confused about the issue here. You can use the Su-33 on the old Kuznetsov model. If you don't think the new model is worth $40 (it isn't), then don't buy it.

OP, the Ryzen 3600 is a real solid CPU if you are looking for multi-core performance. It both performs better in multi-core situations and is significantly cheaper than the 10600k. The 3700x is about the same price as the 10600k, but has an extra 2 cores and 4 threads over the 10600k, giving it significantly higher multi-core performance.

Agreed. You aren't going to see much of a speed increase from RAM, get the bigger SSD. If you are still feeling like you want an upgrade, when the 4k series Ryzen chips drop later in 2020, you can upgrade to one of those without having buy new RAM or MB, you will just need to update your BIOS.

If you are seeing 100% RAM usage, that is the first thing you need to address. Any other upgrade will be horridly bottlenecked by the paging that is occurring. First thing I would do is go to the Startup tab of Task Manager and disable everything you possibly can (restart your computer after). Then, when you play DCS, close anything you aren't using. Discord, browser tabs, etc. Every single thing you close will get you more free RAM. Aim to get your RAM utilization under 75%. If you are still having issues with running out of RAM, you should look into getting another 8 or 16GB. 8GB of DDR3 isn't very expensive, however I would personally put that money toward a new CPU/MOBO/RAM combo. The Ryzen 3600, Ryzen 3600X, and i5-10600k are really great CPUs for most people. Logical Increments has great hardware suggestions for every budget.

What is the purpose of the large protrusion past the back of the plane on the Flanker and Fullback? Is it for some aerodynamic purpose? I don't see this too much on other planes, not even on the MiG-29 which has a similarly shaped air frame.

I experienced this bug when starting on the Kuzentsov (2017) in a custom map. Seems spawning into a plane that is already powered on is the trigger. I was in role #3 (starts near the rear launch point in a parking spot), I launched and later died. I spawned again, but this time the plane was on and in the launch position for some reason. I powered it down and rearmed. After turning on electricity again, I was unable to start the engines. I was only able to fix it by changing role away and back, which started me with power off in the proper place.

Was practicing last night. Your comment here was super helpful. Found if I fixed the issue in the first 5s or so, I am able to get out of it nearly 100% of the time. The plane noses down, pitches up, then flips on its back. Before fully flipping over, one still has a fair amount of control authority even if the plane is being disagreeable. Once it fully flips over, I was able to get out of it about 2/3rds of the time. Both of these are a massive improvement to my 'whelp, I'm dead' experience previously.

In a cobra, you pull back hard to get an extremely large positive angle of attack, then push the stick back down to return to a neutral angle of attack. A cobra doesn't involve large negative angles of attack; which are required to get into the stall condition in my first post. Thanks, I'll check this out and practice it.

If you nose the Su-33 down kinda hard, it flips on its back and then engines and hydraulics go out. Here is a short video demonstration: How do you get out of this stall? I have been doing my best to avoid nosing the aircraft down, but I get into this situation more than I would like. The engines flaming out, in particular, makes it very difficult to recover from. Thank you!

I was doing some testing with the Su-33 on the Roosevelt yesterday. I found one could successfully land, taxi, rearm/refuel, and take off. However, you have to be exceedingly careful to avoid letting your wheels touch the two forward elevators or the front right blast shield. If you do so, the Su-33 will either explode or be flung off the carrier. Edit: I was running the Su-33 as a USAF Aggressor.
