Still these aircrafts did exist at this time and were operational in other theaters, and btw majority of the missions does not actually follow the historical lines eitherway. Hence: could we get at least a single french airplane, and what would be the best candidate?

Now that Normandy 2 is here, and we have seen some videos, it feels really odd to see the BF-109 in promotional video flying over Paris. Why there are no French World War 2 airplanes in game?

So this applies to AIM-7s and AIM-120s as well?

I tried to make a fresh install of latest openbeta, but it pulled from existing installation majority of data. I installed only FC3 and Ka-50, the issue repeated itself: - in ST: mirrors are black - in MT: I still see flanker and building in backgroun Is there a way to force DCS_Updater do download everything from internet? (as said my connection is not a problem)

An interesting question... Still it would be interesting to learn the technical backgrounds in all of these cases.

Bug is still present...

Not sure how to interpret this. Does the last sentence apply to prior or later state?

One thing to note: I bought BS2 initially, and kept it after upgrade to BS3. This means I have both installed in parallel. If required I can attempt to reinstall DCS completely ( I have reasonably good connection), but I am unsure if I will retain BS2 (I am not talking about BS3 version 2011).

tip: upload TRK file, otherwise your bug report is worthless.

In addition: I just repeated same thing but in ST. The mirrors were black, no reflection at all.

The only "mods" I have are Tacview and SRS. Attached it the freshest trk together with dcs.log Additional details: - Dell G7 7700 (laptop) - CPU: Intel i7 10750h - GPU: RTX 2070 Super - RAM: 64GB - latest Windows 10 patch, Home Edition server-20230410-222512.trk dcs.log

You are partially correct: mirrors must be used for this to occur. You do not need to turn them off. Steps to reproduce: 1. switch to flanker 2. activate mirrors (without this it will not be triggered) 3. switch to BS 4. observe the flanker in mirror Btw: I made another TRK and here I started up BS to take off. The mirrors did not update with me gently turning helicopter left. I assume it's some optimimzation code for mirrors, that at the end makes them not update at all. server-20230410-115105.trk Added miz file. Ka-50_identity_crisis.miz

I will give it a try, but this is kind of a bug? (not really critical IMHO, but still). It also makes me wonder about software architecture at play here.

null Added TRK file. I was not imagining it. metashaders and fxo were removed. Shark shows the view from another aircraft in own mirrors. Likely it always wanted to be a flanker and is missing it's R-73s. server-20230410-110834.trk server-20230410-110834.trk

1. Created separate mission 2. delete mods Still I got it once, second time it did not show up, but it appears I see lights not visible from F2 view. Will need to test more...

In DCS, player pulls stick to the break point, put simply: all of them are aces.

I will try to reproduce this. Consider this for now as unqualified bug report: The TRK plus additional screenshots are below.

I just rechecked, download links still work... Was afraid that I removed them.

Just install and use SRS. 2x SHIFT+M to gag builtin AWACS spam

The SA-3 battery that downed F-117A in 1999, was targeted by no less than 24 anti-radar missiles (23 HARMS and 1 Alarm). Not a single one hit them. Closest call was 100-200 meters. They considered that as being hit, since one fin on a single rocket on launcher and attached cabling got damaged. Furthermore they downed F-16 being a part of package designed specifically to take them out. ALE-50 was found in extracted state near crash site, and this was confirmed by the operator who quickly decided that "target" is fake and looked up for the real target. On this occasion 2 HARMs were fired on them, which missed the target. In addition, the number of launched HARMs in that conflict significantly outnumbers total number of radars. That said, some of the radars got hit. In many cases the attributed damage was low enough to put them back in operation just few days later, however there were cases where radars were totally destroyed. So simply answer to your question is: if the crew knows what they are doing probability of hit can be rather low. If the crew is incompetent, the odds can be as bad as 100%.

AIM-120C is clearly superior in DCS and likely IRL compared to base R-77, but I think you got this wrong: every second matters since it translates into traveled distance and reduced time to impact. 1000 km/h => 277 m/s 1200 km/h => 333 m/s 1500 km/h => 416 m/s If there is an evidence as suggested in video that the missile activates faster, why not?

You have to consider also pixel sizes, for spotting...

it's me who misunderstood...

@CBStualthough I do have NXT EVO myself (and actually consider TM Warthog throttle or TWCS), I believe that 200+ EUR is not what he planned to spend on, but rather reuse.

This bug is already heavily exploited on online servers. The bug can be easily triggered with lot's of targets, e.g. TALDs. After this the DL permanently stays in broken state and does not recover.
