Uhhh huhuh uhuhuhh he said nevada

I havnt tested it but maybe your remaining fuel, rounds and bombs can influence this quite a bit. Try landing bingo fuel and no weapons then try full loaded and see if there is a difference. A couple games ago some bloke hit me with an AIM-9 and as I went to land to repair, My breaks were totally ****ed and I ended up off the runway :) That might be new since thats never happened to me before.

Genius! I never thought of that. You're talking about the circular icon that moves if you try and slew the TGP uncaged right?
-
Could anyone please tell me how on earth to scan without the same A to G diamond? It's such a royal pain in the ass to find anything unless they're pumping flares or smoking. Am I missing something here?

Nevada, What happened?! Several years ago when I first got this game, I couldn't WAIT for the Nevada Map to be completed. I thought maybe I could expect to wait 6 months, possibly a year and hopefully not 3 but this is going on almost 4 now, if i am correct. Was it mothballed? This really meant a lot to me because it's the closest thing to Afgan/Irag where I really saw the A-10 in action. Please tell me it's REALLY coming coon or if not, does anybody know of a mod that matches it's quality?

The only reason they suck at choppers is because they fly so low and being limited to IR missiles, they are easily confused from surface heat and go hayfire. A sparrow missile I assume would be far more effective. Or maybe some new 30mm HE rounds with proximity fuses to act as small flak. I always find it rather frustrating trying to get a tone on a enemy chopper because they are so small and the hard to see without any for of radar. A-10's NEED a lil radar
-
I know that if they could somehow fit a radar in nose, maybe not so powerful but enough to at least give them a chance at beyond visual range. AND hack give it a single 120 AMRAAM along a choice of AIM9 or AIM7 each, so they are not so dependent on heat guidance only. Either way I think a single AMRAAM would make a world of a difference. Or even cooler would be a HARM so they could exploit the enemies love leaving their radar on.
-
Plus the TGP have a lot more range vs trying to get a growl at a WVR boogie, It always conveniently tracks rather well. Sorry but I am just horrible at BVR without a radar.
-
Huh? I need DCS World 1.2.5 for DCS A-10C for my MP to work? I should have swore I downloaded all the patches for A-10c "at 1.1.1.1" I suppose I'll keep looking here.

I would agree the A-10 is vulnerable when engaged at BVR but once they merge they're quite formidable. Dogfights are generally fought at low airspeeds "around 300-400knots" which is the A-10's playground. With such broad straight wings they have excellent corner speed and would not something I'd want get into a Lufbery or Scissor with... But yeah I wouldnt recommend pecking a fight when you only two AA missles.
