HIi, Was looking allot but couldn't find a helpful answer to why my MS FF2 doesn't have feedback on DCS A10? My other friend reports no problem with MSFF2, while I only feel the trimming in the A10. I have the latest DCS world with A10C. Very frustrating...!! :joystick: It works fine on BMS etc'. [Win 7/64] Any help will be appreciated!!

I'm not talking about the actual jamming, but the fact the the the jammer is announcing of his presence and you can detect a jamming aircraft even when your radar is on standby mode which is modeled in F4, and avionics in F4 try to be as realictic as in real world as possible, and that implementation of jammer seen on a standby radar is realistic afaik.

Hi, long time ago I started a thread about ECM realism in Lock-on VS. Falcon4, with no final conclusions. I've noticed that in Lock-on when another Aicraft is using ECM - you can only notice that if you turn on your radar (thus discovering yourself) and pointing your nose to the ECM bandit. In Falcon 4 when another aircraft is using ECM (and thus broadcasts its presence to the world) you can PASSIVELY detect those emmisions on your radar scope - while it's on Standby, not emmiting anything and keeping you hidden from enemy RWR. I believe that F4 is correct, since you should passively detect radar emmisions without turning your radar active. I also think you should detect ECM on RWR too, not only on your radar scope, but I don't think I've seen it in F4. So the only way to detect an ECM broadcaster in Lock On - is to turn your radar on and disscover yourself...not a good idea, but is this not the realistic way?? (link to original thread: http://forums.ubi.com/groupee/forums/a/tpc/f/38610606/m/737102685/p/1) I'm adding a link to "Raptorman"s newly released article regarding ECM usage in F4 and quote a line confirming my assumption: You CAN detect a jamming target with your radar on standby mode, thus staying stealthy and seeing the others without announcing your presence. Raptorman quote: "You will see a jamming target even with your radar in standby. You don't need to emit a signal intended to bounce back from him. Your radar can detect the signal he's emitting all by itself." It is not implemented in Lock On as far as I've seen and realism is impaired by that.
