Military aircraft mod, for me

Razbam Interview

It would be great if George had two options - showing highest risk targets (as at present) or closest. In some servers with 20 items in the list, this would be a huge bonus! At present you have to stay exposed too long and watch the cross jump around before you realise there's a T90 at 4km who just killed you while you were looking at the Osa miles off.

I wonder why? It's odd. BTW using Spot In and an orbiting Reaper I have now successfully fired LOAL onto those targets too. So thank you again. Feels like a big step forward.

What for??? Works perfectly as it is

Did an online mission last night where Petro was firing very accurately in the dark so this seems fixed.

Ah it worked, thank you so much!! I'd never come across this before, explains why I always got frustrated with drone AFACs etc. Really appreciate the help! I find that can happen when the JTAC loses sight of a moving tgt, i.e. when it drives into a bit of a dip in the ground.

OK, that's new to me as I never do that with ground JTAC. Let me give it a try ....

You are in FLT mode. Change to H-B (Hover - Bob Up)

Can anyone get the Kiowa to work as JTAC and lase the tgt?

The Apache works well with the ground based JTAC but when trying to working with an airborne FAC with a laser, in this case the OH-58D Kiowa, I call him up and talk everything through and get "Laser On" and I fire a LOAL Hi Hellfire and then often get "Abort Abort Abort you have no permission" and he switches the laser off. Once I've had a laser stay on so I hit the first target but then he wouldn't lase the others even though he called "switch". Normally I get Abort on the first tgt. Mission attached. AFAC is on 133 MHz. Any thoughts gratefully received. AFAC Kiowa and Apache.miz

Works fine with default radar (incl Wurzburg) but only "clean" with these new radars, including the Bar Lock (my fav!) and the generic radar tower.

No, it doesn't. The bug is that it says "Clean" when it should see a bandit.

Well he's in a different Army - see his text right here:

I've been reading Ed Macy's book "Hellfire" that details his time learning the Apache as well as flying it on ops (Highly recommended!) and he details practising in "the bag", including steady pick ups and hovering on IHADSS symbology alone. No PNVS, it's cheating. It was useful practice for landing in brown out conditions caused by dust etc. The first time he picked up to a hover and tried to hold it still, he managed 7 feet or so, IIRC. He thought he'd gone many times that distance. I'm impressed he wasn't upside down. Well I've been trying it. It's so difficult!! You need this skin pack (Japanese flying school): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3324665/ And remember: No PNVS, it's cheating.

Have just tested in single player mode and all weights, including full fuel, Hellfires and rkts (over 8000 kg) at 20 degrees temp at Hama airbase and Radar Alt Hold worked every time. No attitude hold used. No trim applied. Stable enough to hover taxi into hangar.

Oh lord please no. Just use the "Draw" text function.

Scusi

I set the green radio preset to 118.25 in the Editor. However in game using SRS it showed only 118.00. I wonder if this explains the problems we've been having with presets? And when manually set to 118.250 (Kerman), it didn't work and SRS showed 118.205. So it doesn't transmit or receive. In short, both Preset and Manual mode are broken. Manual does work for numbers where the last digits are zero, eg 251.300.

The top label has a spelling mistake. The second letter should be the same at the first letter in the third row, i.e. a "B" in Russian. It currently reads as a different Russian letter, "myagkii znak".
