No, I was searchning for 'Hobby Boss F-105 1:48 Reviews'. Then I saw that and was intrigued. Thought I found a new plane I never knew about like the English Electric F.53.

P-3C, I don't remember the block number. I do know know none of my EW stuff was original except for the APS-115. At the time I had the latest and greatest for 1999. No no sounds, just ways to ID, Classify, Track and Target for the TACCO. He is the one who gets to actually launch HARMs and the Torpedoes, DCs, Mines, Missiles ect

Personally, I'd like the MiG-27

I like this idea. Little dust devils at Nevada and such

What about Hobby Boss with RESKIT parts? Oh and the higher the temperature, and the higher the salinity, and the higher the pressure; the faster sound travels. If I remember correctly. We called it the 'Teaspoon' formula (Temperature, Salinity, Pressure).

We get trained in both areas in school. Then we go to our specialized schools. NACCS (Naval Air Crew Candidate School) > Anti-Submarine Warfare Specialist 'A' School (Acoustic / Non-Acoustic) > S.E.R.E. Level 'C' > RAG Squdron > Basic EW > Flight Phase 'Bounce Bitches' > Advanced EW > Flight Phase II > Checkrides

It's an old tool that looks like a Geisha Fan. It opens an closed and has 10 sharp points on it. When we print out an acoustic read, we used them to measure the distances between sound waves. This would give us 'what' you are. The turn count is literally us listening to your screw "whip-whop-whop' underwater over a 30sec period. That tells us 'who' are, and what set you claim cuz

"Trust me bro" We can. We can do the same with our 10-Points and a 'Turn Count's. BTW Everyone, Red October does not look like that in real life. It's a real sub with real screws. The hardest Subs to track are Diesel Electric

[SLOW PERFORMANCE] Unusually long load times and close times

It's what it took. I think maybe some security update broke DCS. Afresh instal of that didn't work. -
[WIP] 12th FS, F-15C, ELMENDORF AFB, 2004 - IN WORK
SOLIDKREATE replied to SOLIDKREATE's topic in F-15C
Okay guys, I'm going to work all day Friday (-8 GMT) to gte these out. -
My ESM display was far more advanced than what the F-105 had. LEFT CONSOLE - ECM (JAMMING.) CENTER - AN/APS-137 ISAR (Inverse Synthetic Arpeture RADAR) *My scope was a round because I used the AN/APS-115. This one shown was far more advanced. RIGHT CONSOLE - ESM (LISTENING) BEHIND HER HEAD - MAD (Magnetic Anomally Detector), Worked like a Richter Scale with actual electric scribes that used THERMOELECTRIC paper. LOWER CENTER - I forget, I just know I hated doing SYGNOG and OFOM's. ABOVE CENTER - FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared). RIGHT SHOULDER, LOWER - TTSI (Traget Tracking Sight Indicator) How we controlled the FLIR camera. If I got anything half wrong, it's been 25yrs. Funny thing, I used to pick up cell phone back when they wewre 'Celluar'. 9000MHz. I even knew when someone was using theri microwave at home, yes really. 333MHz, definite Russin FC RADAR or any kind of equipment. Even had a book called the EPL that would allow me to classify what you were, block number, when you were made, effective weapons range, your whole life man. Every crystal in every RADAR system is uique to that system. It is a finger print.

It's been 25yrs. So, I do not know how valuable I'd be.

Taking a guess at how this worked. The large screen I assume is a way to classify what king of RADAR you're hunting. Although I dont think there would be three osicciliscope type readouts/ I think each one represents the 'E-BAND, G-BAND, I-BAND. It also kind of acts like an Azimuth readout too. Basically the EWO gives the pilot course instructions. The smalled screen tyo the right is the actual Seeker Head input from the AGM-78. I guess when uncaged it actively sweeps? I think it acts just like the damn F-5E RADAR does. You adjust the seaaker head angle na dbasically steer until the head locks on. This may not sweep like I have it depicted. The "return" may actually appear in the lower half of the screen too (derp). My assumption for the tick marks on the left screen are AZ angle. Probabaly in 5 degree increments. I think the STARM is allowed 20deg based on what Blaze posted. Let me know guys, let's keep this going. ***** EDIT, I think the indicators on the right screen do move but they only move when you move them. There is the large AGM-78 panel on the right and it has both an angle adjustment knob and an AZ adjustment knob. Then again there is a Sweep Rate, Attenuation and tuning knob. Maybe it does sweep and you still move the crossshairs over the RADR return or signal spike and then lock?

OKay some things to think about concerning Electronic Warfare. RADAR Ranging (RR), Lobing (LB), and Aspect Dependency (AD). The first one I really can say if that works unless a Tester or Dev speaks on it. RR is a situation like being on the highway with other cars. Let's imagine a Police Officer running a 'speed trap' points his emmitter at oncoming traffic. He hops on his bike when you all pass at the same speed however he/she pulls over the person next to you. Why, because of 'RR'. The car next to you was obscuring you from the beam. Think of RADAR (Radio Detection And Ranging) like a searchlight in pitch blackness. The other car basically casted a shadow on you. 'LB' Is something like a beam emitting from the dish that wraps in back on itself. You would have multiple 'Lobes'. One transmits in Elevation and the other Azimuth. This basically is how the RADR knows where a target is. Then we have Lobe Switching which nnow comes to mind but it has been over 20yrs since I have touched an AN/APS-1115. I used to know a boat load about this stuff. Not to bragg but I was top of my class 'AD' is exactly what you think it is. Either something is coming straight at you and the return is small. Or they are moving eats to west, north to south perpendicular to you and the return in bigger. If they are in a bank it will be even bigger. Lots of other factors for RADAR performace is the magintude, altitude, weather and even what the RADR is made of. Then we have 'Noise' to deal with as well. Just know the higher you are the farther you can see. The colder and dryer the weather (WX) is the better the RADAR works. Now does ED going about making of that a physical part of the game code. I don't think mopst peoples PC's in here copuld handle all that math in real time.

Former P-3C EWO here, well DCS is far far away from being able to be worked realistically in EW, the D & F can still work. There are a lot of factors at play here. I'll get more into it when I get home. I'm at work for 2 more hours.

SOLIDKREATE replied to SOLIDKREATE's topic in F-15C
Wont be long now guys. I am fixing all of the "f-15_stab_v" .dds files. the Serial Numbers are all out of position on side. I am almost done maybe another hour. I fell asleep today because of the heat this afternoon. Plus I always have a cigar after every skin pack I make -
I'd certainly buy one too. I'm willing to bet that would be a $150 ~ $200 module. That still would not deter me, even if it was always and only AI crew members. We actually really, really need dedicated bombers. In reality, I think we have more of a chance getting an Su-24M and am FB-111A before any big bombers ever came. Id be totally fine with that. There would be an audience, especially me since SEAD is all I do. It has served in Germany in the 60's but then replaced by F-4's.

Making progress, expect release of the 19th FS tonight and the 12th FS this weekend. I need a little break so I'm going t go hope in my Tomcat, cat shoot off the bow, and go move mud. I feel the need -
Ah, I had a brain fart I see . Yeah the SBD-5 would be great! I personally want an A-26B or a hard nose Mitchell.
