  1. Hi Cubanace, I think that the Kh-59's naval variants in the latest phase do not fly that high, but low, like most of the cruiser missiles, in order to avoid be detected from far distance, that's why it's activate only 10km far from the target, allowing to the launcher to receive the camera image and select the target if is necessary!

     

    Regards.

  2. RuSh - RED - MiG-29S

     

    I propose a limit time frame until 1990, with no R-77 in the RED side and allowed only 2 x AGM-54A for each F-14

    Should be 4 x F-14B in the blue side.

    Should be allowed Viggen and Harrier in the blue side

     

    I quote how it was IRL the F-14 loadout

     

    Armament

     

    F-14 Tomcat carrying an AIM-120 AMRAAM during a 1982 test.

    The F-14 was designed to combat highly maneuverable aircraft as well as the Soviet anti-ship cruise missile and bomber (Tupolev Tu-16, Tupolev Tu-22, Tupolev Tu-22M) threats.[34] The Tomcat was to be a platform for the AIM-54 Phoenix, but unlike the canceled F-111B, it could also engage medium- and short-range threats with other weapons.[32][34] The F-14 is an air superiority fighter, not just a long-range interceptor aircraft.[34] Over 6,700 kg (14,800 lb) of stores can be carried for combat missions on several hardpoints under the fuselage and under the wings. Commonly, this means a maximum of two–four Phoenixes or Sparrows on the belly stations, two Phoenixes/Sparrows on the wing hardpoints, and two Sidewinders on the wing hardpoints.[citation needed] The F-14 is also fitted with an internal 20 mm M61 Vulcan Gatling-type cannon.

     

    Operationally, the capability to hold up to six Phoenix missiles was never used, although early testing was conducted; there was never a threat requirement to engage six hostile targets simultaneously and the load was too heavy to safely recover aboard an aircraft carrier in the event that the missiles were not fired. During the height of Cold War operations in the late 1970s and 1980s, the typical weapon loadout on carrier-deployed F-14s was usually only one AIM-54 Phoenix, augmented by two AIM-9 Sidewinders, two AIM-7 Sparrow IIIs, a full loadout of 20 mm ammunition and two drop tanks.[citation needed] The Phoenix missile was used twice in combat by the U.S. Navy, both over Iraq in 1999,[50][51][52] but the missiles did not score any kills.

  3. One thing that stands out for me here is why in the hell do you have target range set at 78.9?????

    This will make any elevation in your radar very small so if a target is higher than you and you elevate the radar you're chances of getting him in the scan zone are extremely low.

    Just leave it at 10 and don't play with it.

     

    One thing you need to remember is that the radar runs a 4 bar scan this can take several seconds to get a picture.

     

    Another thing that could be happening here is doppler effect with the cold bandit, if you're chasing a target who is matching your speed your radar will not pick this up.

     

     

     

    Frostie AFAIK, you have a better chance to detect anything with radar ranges above 30km than using the default 10. Anyway, they were at almost the same altitude, in this case there is no problem with the radar range setup.

     

    And finally the Hornet heat signature in DCS is about as hot as a wet fart.

     

    I can't argue that!, I can only detect in the Russian IRST the Russian aircraft from far, and the western from very close :D

  4. AIM-120 in Russian MiG-29 combat manual

     

    attachment.php?attachmentid=198750&stc=1&d=1543265152

     

    But this chart is for defensive purposes, give the possible use of an enemy AIM-120 if the target is visible in PPS (frontal) or ZPS (behind) radar modes, depending on maximum and minimum launcher speeds

  5. Ahh, and another interesting thing I didn't notice when looking at the charts before.

     

    The same chart is used for both ER and ET, and since the ET has worst aerodynamic properties then the ER, the limiting factor for range might not be propulsion, but the power source life time like stated before.

     

    And that the ET chases a lit cigar if you throw it out the window! :megalol:

  6. With any luck you will have a doc like:

    or

    If not CFD is about the best you can do. It ain't the end of the world though at low alpha numbers (under 15 for sure) CFD can be an incredible accurate tool.

     

    nice docs,I don't think there is something similar online about Russian missiles, only a few charts like the one posted above.

  7. - In this mission the instructor doesn't give you the frequency where the bomber will be, like the previous training mission of radar. (the freqs are visible in the kneeboard like the previous mission)

     

    - Looks like at the beginning of the mission, it not reset the gear and flaps parameters of the previous training mission; if you left the flaps extended in the previous mission, the flap light will start ON in this one, even if the flaps are retracted. When you takeoff, the gears and flaps will not retract. You have to quit to the main menu and select TRAINING again to solve this problem

  8. Hi KOŠ this is video No.9 A/G GUNS,RKT,BOMIIRC.First action is bombing.ASP-5 need for bombing so-called bomb chart,so everything what pilot is doing(in video) is nonsense.MiG-19P have not possibility to drop bombs in single mode.Scale on the right side does not show dive angle,but aiming angle(0-11deg)

     

    Second action is RKT firing.ASP-5 is capable to set aiming angle for S-5 rocket automatically according ballistic properties of S-5 by switching from bomb(NR-30) to rkt

     

    Third action is GUN firing.ASP-5 is capable to set aiming angle for NR-30 automatically according ballistic properties of NR-30 by switching from rkt(bomb) to NR-30.

    In all three cases is ASP-5 in uncage mode but the piper moves only NR-30 mode-nonsens.Uncage is still uncage, gyroscope is free so piper is moving.

     

    Not good simulation of gyrosight.

     

    thanks for the info!

  9. I have a G940 Logitech Joystick and mapped in the Axis Commands menu, the ASP-5 Wingspan selector and Dive angle to the rotary selectors of the joystick and is not working.

     

    Are the dial knobs in the base of the image, I used the named TRIM 1 to the Wingspan selector and the TRIM 2 for the Dive angle (in the MIG-21 works perfect with the ASP)

  10. - I suggest to place a mark in the map showing where is the anchor point

    - When using bombs and select a target wingspan of 30 meters (for the garage), and a dive angle of 30-50 meters, the Sight dissappear from HUD when is uncaged, and is not visible even when you are diving and close to the target. In order to make it visible, I have to press the quick cage button that I mapped in the stick like the real MIG.

    - The same of above for rockets, in this case with a wingspan of 7 meters to engage the trucks

    - No problems with the sight and cannons

  11. As a Viggenite I must say that the Mig-19 is actually way harder to kill in a dogfight than a Mig-21. Much better turning radius than both the Mig-21 and the Viggen.

     

    It's a good addition to the Cold war server! :thumbup:

     

    I agree!

  12. First impressions:

     

    The Good:

     

    The Bad:

     

    • Security.
      I'm not very fond at all of having full file and folder browsing access over the internet where ED's account manager being the only security layer. In my eyes, I'd go so far to say it's a complete no-go. Easily fixed by closing down TCP 8088 for public access and using the local method of accessing the WebGui, of course but ppl less tech savvy might not reflect when a guide says something in the lines of "open 8088 for it to work". Some kind of additional private credential check is a must for public access for me.
    • Presentation, in-server.
      It took me a good while before realizing the server was started. I just assumed the client (okok, dedicated server ;D) had froze and I restarted it several times before realizing it was actually the way it was supposed to be. A black screen saying "server loading" or "server started" would be something to aim for perhaps.

    A step in the right direction for sure, please keep it up and drive this thing all the way home! :)

    Overall: Good job ED!

     

    I have the 8088 closed on my firewall, and using Bitvise SSH tunnelier VPN from my house to the server, in my PC C2S: localhost:8088 -> server:8088
