The SAM Radar gets active first time: If the TD Box in the TOO mode is in the bearing of the emitter but the distance is unclear and the TD Box drifting up and down f.e. IT would be more realistic. But the aTD Box Spot on target in a millisecond with the right bearing and distance, that is unrealistic. The CLC can get viable data about the distance when the plane changes its aspect and the Radar stays in thats OK but this will need change in the aspect and will need some time.

I understand your Point but this is not my opion. Its a simulation. I find it hard to tune things up to compensate anything. But think the zoom option is your way to go. IRL the pod would not be so bad, that anybody can't see a target in the mfd. But it is not cystal clear when you have digital zoomed in max.

The thing is, realism standard hast to bei priority for all the modules. Same thing with Maverick alignment for years. I can not be the case that only for the F16 the systems are simulated and the rest is about guessing thing could be right. Litning needs to be downgrade for all the modules.

Which pod are you using? Laser in cmbt mode? Go to list, misc (0), laser (5) and Change AG laser from training to Combat (cmbt)

I think the topic should bei changed then not the discussion should bei closed. because the whole thread is about comparing the Litning vs the Sniper pod. All agreed that the Sniper is modeled very well. The problem apears when you compare the pods. I dont think ED needs more evidence to know that the Sniper is well simulated and the Litning was an early try to get a usable pod inplemented to make gbus etc possible. It was early access not more.

In my opinon the Litning pod should be downgraded. There is no other option in my opinon. The perfect picture though all digital zooms and slew movements is far unrealistic for the AN/AAQ-28. I think realism was the main aspect which differents DCS from other sims like warthunder etc. Sorry for the old eyes or the planes which dont have the sniper pod. But the F16 has its limits as every other planes has this limites. And the F16 should have the most advanced pod in DCS with the AN/AAQ-33. I we all agree with that. To leave a less capaple pod IRL overpowered in this game because some people would be furios is the wrong way when you say "as real as it gets". DCS should be a simulation and when it must be downgraded because of DCS is progressing this is the way to go. If you dont want it, there are many other sims that dont have this claim!

Exactly not Most guys are absolutely happy with the implementation of the Sniper ATP. But in contrast to this realistic implementation it becomes more and more clear to a lot more players that the Litning pod is not modeled well. Thats all, I think!

Yeah I tested the both pod too. And the Litening is far superior then the Sniper ATP. Thats unrealistic of course but thats how it is at the moment. Especially when slewing the pod the Litning has always the super sharp and clear view even with most digital zoom. Dont get me wrong: I like the implementation of the sniper very much, the reality isnt that easy and I like how it is modeled - as real as it gets! But Im afraid that nobody will take the Sniper ATP as long as the Litning is that unrealisticly modeled and that far superior. The Litning Pod needs to be refined in my opinon!

The question is will the lightning pod will be downgraded to realistic standarts or not. The Sniper pod is by far the Most advanced pod in term of picture quality. Now in DCS it is more blurry then the Atflir, Lightning or even Lantirn pod. That is a problem. A downgrade would be good in terms of realism but will starte a rage for those who can not mount the Sniper pod.

I know this is not beeing welcomed in this threat but in this interview they laugh about the flightmodel of the DCS F18C "hornet on crack". Minute: 9:07 My post is NOT intended to crush the "Praise of the hornet" or the Hornet Fans. I like it to fly too. But I think realism should be the first priority this far. Yes, I know we are getting a F35 and yes no model in DCS is implemented like IRL but this was the high standard for DCS for years. At the moment the hornets turns out everything in a rate fight and thats what they are laughing about in DCS. I think this comments are a real oppertunity. Its the chance to pick this up and talk to those guys about the flight model. The good the bad and whats needs to be changed in DCS. Thats a really good opertunity! Take it, ED!

I found cracks in my pressure plate too. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement? Or is there a 3d print template for this? Thanks!

Had no tone either Yesterday and my wingmen had no tone too. But bombs went well. We both were surprised that there is a problem with the tone right now...

It doesnt work for me in the decent DCS version. I selected as player but I can only see the plane in the external view and its flown by AI.

I cant load a mission only with the triggers in briefing room. There is in error notification. When I load another briefing room mission which has the triggers manually included, it deletes the triggers when I click on generate new mission.

Yeah I know. But I want to build the missions with briefing room and I cant get a template mission in there. Thats my problem!
