I'm asking Heatblur about an F-4G
-
A real IADS would coordante with each other, for example during the Vietnam war the air defense crews would talk to each other on the phone and keep their radars in standby mode until they got there was an American plane in range then they would turn on. They would also do tricks where a single radar would guide SAMs from multiple batteries

Thank you for all the hard work. I'm looking forward to the missions

As long as there is some ambeguaty I think it might be possible to have a Wild Wasel. Looking at dragrams and photos of Wild Weasels the heat of the EWO's job appears to be using a look up table to use the PRF (pulse repetition frequency) and frequency to determine what radar they are detecting PRF is determined by a radar's maximum unambiguous range. For example if a radar has a PRF of 1000 it would have a rage around 90 miles (light travels about 180 miles per millisecond) so 1 milisecond is enough time for a beam to hit a target 90 miles away then bounce back. Right now based on what we see with the SHRIKE DCS models bands. The F-4G I think could basically use the same model as the HARM targeting system from what i can tell it looks like the F-105G could give you a rough range based on power so you could have the O-silicope show spikes and use ADF mode to communicate the range.

I've said it before artillery needs to be improved overall. Not only do we need more period correct ammo types - Starburst shells (mentioned in the title of the post), smoke shells, guided shells but we also need improvements to artillery targeting for example DCS needs to model forward observers and spotting aircraft

Right now I am doing some research for an F-105 module, I'm hoping to do a G. Anyway, with the EW research I have done it looks like you had to manually tune the frequency and PRF (pulse repetition frequency) and then the radar would show up on the ossilicope and there was a mode to get the HSI pointing to the radar. The RPF is based on a radars range for example a radar with a 93 mile range would have a PRF of 1000 since that would be enough time for a radar to hit a target 93 miles away and bounce back. It also looks like the RHAWR might be able to calculate the range based on a radars power. Anyway my question right now I'm thinking what might work for an RHAW model is since the Thud had a switch for bands so I'm thinking select the band then set the RPF and have the most powerful radar of that type show up on your RHAWR and and flip the ADF switch to feed get the HSI to display the radar then use the PRF knob to set the sam type.

I know heatblur has said that they would licences Jester I personally say let's try to get a community mod going I don't know the modeling I think if anyone can contact VSN we could use that as an external base. -
yes and the Thunderjet and thud too
-
The dream ain't dead yet. I am trying to get something started. I believe orange create made mushroom clouds

The map clearly has the Berlin wall which means the earliest date would be 1961, which would be 2nd/3rd generation. For Gen 0 / 1 jets we would really need an early cold war Germany map (which might also double as a WWII map) and right now I might fly the early jets on this map or I might have WWII battles as well I would also buy a 1940s version for late war and early clod war scenarios.
-
sad, though do you think about a good community module? https://www.reddit.com/r/Thunderchief/ Nothing has been done but I can do some LAU but I don't know diddly about modeling
-
I think for the 70s and 80s we have the biggest deficit in blue for assets. I'd love to have the Thud, and Aardvark, for starters

Mega Dittos.

It's the wish list make it big and see what people want Moscow would be nice- good one. I figure you could get a couple maps out of that operation Tunisia would be awesome I think Hawii, Midway, and Wake could be a single map. You can draw a triangle between the 3. Midway is about 3000 KM Northwest of Hawaii and Wake is about 4000 KM due west most of that is going to be ocean Looks like we have a lot of the same ideas I see I missed the P-40. Even though the focus is 1942, I'd make it just an early war request so that we can get BISMARK a what if duel between BISMARK and an Iowa would be awesome
-
With the Cold War Germany map, i think it's really imperative for ED to focus on filling in the missing cold war assets. Based on what modules we the primary fovus should be on things that left service after 1972 but entered service before 1991. The secondary focus should be assets that could do double duty for wwii maps. I think we need more Korean era modules before worrying about the ai assets.

Cool find

I'd like this too. Here is my map list for 1942 Midway/eastern Pacific - ideally ,I would have Midway, Hawaii, and Wake Coral Sea/ North West Australia and New Guinea- Stalingrad (ideally I'd love to have a caucuses 2.0 with a modern era map and a WWII map) North Africa (a 1942 Sanai map would be a good starting point ) I'd also add the P-40
-
I've suggested something similar to this before, except I would have ground units labeled with unit size- squad, platoon, company, battalion, brigade and so forth, with the option to use a template based on real-world tables of organization for the units so the AI could build something. Then, for naval units, I'd have task forces and task groups. The task groups would have templates labeled carrier strike group, surface action group (built around a battleship or cruiser), expeditionary strike group (amphibious warfare)

This wouls be an awesome op for for the MiG-17 and a good addition to the cold war line up
-
I'd have to test it would be nice to issue orders like "start prone" anyway we still need a PKM gunner
-
That is going to be the hardest part. A good question here would be if you could guestimate the sounds based on the RPF and SPS. Kowing how DCS does EW I think the F-4G is going to be easier since the computer was smart enough to use a look up table to identify a radar

I had someone state that the STARM loved to kill X-brand radars
-
Thanks. I just found some open-source EW material https://www.radartutorial.eu/01.basics/!rb02.en.html I think this could be possible. If there is anything to learn from Fat Amy, it is that the switches need to be 100% right and everything else needs to be good enough. The PRF is determined by the radars range and is easy to calculate from there https://www.everythingrf.com/rf-calculators/pulse-repetition-frequency-calculator which brings up a few questions I hope to get answered is that to tune the missile or RWR? Then we look here This pannel makes me think that was to tune the STARM going to

We have most of the planes for the Iran-Iraq war either as flyable modules or AI assets. SO are there going to be any Iranian airbases so we could fly some IRan Iraq war missions with the Tomcat Phantom, or Tiger II ?
