  1. Yes, this is how NVidia ensures the prices remain high. Up there you can see prices here in Germany. 3090 price is still high, with minimal suppliers. 4090 price is rising in anticipated of 5090! The only explanation is that NVidia ensures that supply remains limited, so actual number of new 4090s at the moment is very low. Jump started in October, which means that at least as of September they may have chocked the availability. This is not difficult to achieve since they know exactly the state of stocks and actual demand. I am pretty sure that we will see this before 6090 as well before it gets hyped they will push 5090 prices up, but cutting off supply. If I have to predict for release of 6090 Jensen will wear red tight skin jump suite and all will be "good" again.
  2. makes sense and explains a thing or two...
  3. 260 means?
  4. At the time when they were designed SARH was the dominant method of guidance. Passive would have allowed the guidance beyond the range of the radar + unlike SARH no warning. Opposing SARH or strong radar emission of AWACS or dedicated jamming platforms would be good source of signal. Meanwhile somebody pushed the game into direction of ARH, so obviously these missiles have lost the prior importance. It does not make much sense to use them when the better tool is available except only in specialized cases. Still they did appear in manuals and WCS. Still unanswered question would be what kind of target it would be used against. Given the method of acquisition, the fighter would likely have to get azimuth and altitude at least.
  5. Reproduced: it goes after jammer. The only way it can actually hit aircraft is if it is on ground and not moving fast. Would be interesting to see if HARM would do the same. Flanker provided to show that ECM is on. JF-17 LD-10_against jammer.trk
  6. Happened to me at least 5 times, likely not intended, but actually plausible

    Btw, there are ongoing problems with e.g. reworked F-5 liveries, since these community designers have now issues with loading of the models into ModelViewer2. I am concerned that the same problem will occur with Mig-29.

    Should only 9.12a liveries be used?
  9. Roger, better move there, but it's pity since the majority of samples provided by @Ronin_Gaijin was in this thread. Do you think ED should provide the GCI officer screens as well?
  10. So, since we have seen so many pictures, which liveries do you think ED will include in the official Mig-29 module?
  11. Well it clear this is already decided, yet being ablr to disable e.g. DL would be good for servers which try to match airframes with historic capabilities. Something similar was done with BS3, you can force an older version. Why not with an eagle?
  12. IMHO: posting it like this is rude. And btw, there are us who actually liked each and every picture posted here.
  13. Its rare to see private unit videos like this. Thank you.
  14. BTW: here I almost managed to get the team kill:
  15. Was doing SEAD yesterday on contention. LD-10 was flying where I told it to, but in final stage it turned toward maneuvering harrier. SInce on this server harries use jammers, its very likely that anti-radiation missiles switch to them, since they emit in the same band as radar would be. Sadly no air kill.
  16. This is not hypothetical, Mig pilot is more than willing to sacrifice his life for the motherland.
  17. Any known example you can share?
  18. There were 2 more on March 26th. Go to FF Mig-29 forum section and you will find 4 stories I published so far. https://forum.dcs.world/forum/1217-dcs-mig-29a-fulcrum/ I think ED should allow at least for mission maker/server to enforce missing features.
  19. 4 confirmed kills, and yes this was the version used in 1999. However it should be noted that these kills except in one case involved firing at minimum 2 missiles per aircraft. Regarding the NVGs, Mike "Dozer" Shower stated no NVGs during the fight he had, and this was on the first evening of the aggression. Also Cesar "Rico" Rodriguez, also stated no NVGs...
  20. This is becoming one of those Pluto-is-not-a-planet discussions. Its like "Hey I did it first but forgot to file patent application". We all know who did it first in front of the public and at such low altitude.
  21. I just used the missiles on contention on 2 guys, no problem PR.
  22. Looks like we got a fix, can anyone else confirm?
  23. No mentioning in release notes: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/news/changelog/release/2.9.12.5336/
