Per title. Selecting the HUD Attitude Selector Switch to "STBY" should remove the Velocity Vector, display a fixed "W" for the waterline, and HUD attitude information should match the Standby Attitude Indicator. The DDI ADI page correctly matches the attitude information provided by the Standby Attitude Indicator, even with a variety of attitude excursions. standby INS bug.trk

Agreed - this would be very helpful.

Our squadron has been using this for a while, it's a great little program:

reported Entering TWS Auto Breaks Antenna Elevation
ExNusquam replied to ExNusquam's topic in Bugs and Problems
1 Week Bump. Can we get a status/tag on this? -
Entering TWS Auto will remove ability to control antenna elevation. To replicate: 1. STT on contact 2. Enter TWS via PB10(Automatically selects TWS AUTO) 3. Observe no antenna elevation control 4. Select RWS via PB5 5. Observe antenna elevation control not regained in RWS. Track attached. antenna_elevation_bug.trk

Resurrecting this thread, per standard aircraft characteristics for the AGM-84A, a declassified document from 1974, Harpoon should cruise at 50-200' before executing it's terminal maneuver. http://www.alternatewars.com/SAC/AGM-84A_Harpoon_SAC_-_August_1974.pdf

Check OS Elevation. You're looking below the target, when terrain elevation is ~700M.

There is a minor error in the hook bypass switch logic. If the switch is in Carrier, and the hook is down, the switch will not be held in Field. However, if the switch is in Field, and the hook is lowered, the switch is not released to Carrier. If the hook is ever down the bypass switch should no longer be held in Field. Track attached. bypass_bug.trk

If dropped below minimum altitude, the Harpoon will self-destruct after ~25 seconds, despite successfully transitioning to cruise flight. This appears to only occur if the HARM stabilizes fairly low altitude (<300'). If employed such that it stabilizes at a higher altitude (but still below cruise altitude) the missile will level off and transit to the target as planned. I'm not aware of any documentation for a Harpoon self-destructing before it reaches programmed destruct range. Track attached. HPD Self-Destruct.trk

You can currently adjust the scan center using the AZ/EL format, so this functionality now "exists" but still needs to be copied over to the ATK RDR format.

Graceful strafes and manoeuvres just like in cool videos
ExNusquam replied to freelancer2011's topic in DCS: A-10C Warthog
Check the A-10 employment videos here - these are the "real world" techniques, including Strafing, Bombing, Rockets, Safe Escape Maneuvers and low-altitude jinks. https://www.youtube.com/user/476vFG -
Will EXP3 mode of air to ground radar be optimized and improved?
ExNusquam replied to kaoqumba's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
One of the nice additions would be Doppler shift for moving objects so that you can't easily drop a designation on them. Some basic info the impacts of target motion: -
Don't forget IRL you can cycle between the HSI, SA and EW pages using the HOTAS. The HUD+SA page should give you enough quick info, and the EW page is no more than 2 presses of the castle switch away.

Notso nailed it WRT the inclusion of additional terminal seekers. The push for newer weapon systems is in flexibility and multiple terminal options, not necessarily improving accuracy. And there is additional challenges IRL in terms of generating quality coordinates. It's not as simple as "use this sensor" as there may be various restrictions including range, squint and graze. I honestly think the "arcade" accuracy of DCS is probably producing realistic results, which is that someone in mission planning did the work and you can accurately employ the weapon. You could include things involving the constellation (flex power, etc.) but that's so far beyond scope it really shouldn't be included.
