As @Moonshine said, its 134. However for future reference, all ALIC codes can be found in \Scripts\Aircrafts\_Common\Cockpit\AN_ALR_HarmIDs.lua

The F-35B is cool and all, but has some significant limitations over the A such as: A lower airspeed limit of 630KIAS (compared to 700 on the A). A G-Limit of only 7 (compared to 9 on the A) A smaller weapons bay which can't fit 2000lb class bombs. It also lacks the internal gun. From a FM/FLCS perspective also don't need to model the 6 control law modes on the F35B (excluding all the gains) and the weird flight dynamics that come from entering STOVL flight. There are some weird workarounds, but using TRC on a throttle that lacks FFB and adjustable gates can also pose issues.

VSN has their own discord server, you’re much more likely to get a help there than on the ED F35 forum.

Maybe we’ll see the overall capabilities some CCAs after they enter service in a few years. But only god knows whether or not we will exactly how CCAs integrate with the F35s avionics and PVI within the next decade. BTW the portal showed in your screenshot from that LM video does not follow the same design conventions as every other F35 portal. I do not imagine it would look anywhere close to that on the real jet.

Sure the LITENING has overall better video quality, primarily because it lacks digital zoom modelling. However Multi-Track on the ATP is pretty useful in A2G missions. Personally the digital zoom modelling hasn't affected me much in how i operate A2G missions because of the XR processing. But many people do dislike how you can't just constantly slew the ATP around and have crystal clear imagery, which i understand.

Having visible vortices and vaping is a nice QoL thing, but I wouldn't be bothered if they aren't implemented on release.

ChatGPT and other LLMs are a fantastic tool, but are not a replacement for doing actual research. I personally don't find it overly productive to just copypaste AI-written text on online forums, especially when it's not cited.

Ukraine operates 2010s Era MiG-29MU2s, recently upgraded to utilize western weapons such as AASM, MALD, HARM, SDB and JDAM-ER. ED is making a ~1980s era MiG-29 9.12A.

The M67 is quoted by the DOD to have an effective (50%) lethal radius of 5m with an effective (50%) casualty-producing radius of 15m. There are numerous sources claiming fragments can travel to distances exceeding 200 metres. I personally wouldn't like being inevitably being peppered with dozens of tiny steel fragments standing in the open 20 metres away from a hand grenade. Sure you're unlikely to die, but it's certainly not a pleasant experience.

Are you able to link a credible source supporting this 20 metre lethal radius claim. Peak overpressure from a Mk82 blast is 117kPa 16m according to the GICHD document linked above, with overpressure decreasing to 34kPa at a distance of 31 metres. According to the CDC; 69kPa overpressure is enough to kill most people, with 34kPa is enough to universally injure people with widespread fatalities, and serious injuries at 21kPa. I feel like "serious injuries" to infantry in DCS should count as deaths, purely because they prevent the soldier from fighting in any capacity. This is not even factoring in fragmentation. It's not uncommon to see videos of several large pieces of shrapnel to travel over 75m even from just a 155mm artillery shell explosion. And those only have an explosive filling of ~15 pounds. Just imagine the amount of shrapnel, and the distance it will travel with the ~200 pounds of explosive filling in a Mk82.

LITENING lacks Multi-Track, the IR pointer and can't be used for slaving sidewinder seekers. MT makes engaging several ground targets with JDAMs in quick succession much easier since you don't need to manually slave the tgp after each drop, or make markpoints with the DED. The only real downside to the Sniper is that there are penalties for digital zoom. But LITENING having perfect digital zoom is just a DCSism.

let them cook

I don't see why F35s can't be implemented into modern multiplayer servers, not all of them are PVP, and Eurofighters will still stay highly competitive against luneburg lensed F35s. "Realism-oriented" servers in DCS just means LARPing minus all the annoying things that come with realistic engagements.

That graph shows the max range of the F-16 and F-18s radar in VSR/VS modes respectively it appears. Yes, maximum range for RWS and TWS modes in the F16 also increased with their phase 2 radars, but PD is now factored in. Similar with the F18.

Of course
