There's some info on the ED discord and it. If you go to the bugs channel and search for shrikes there's a few issues and one of them has a table. But it's not something that ED has updated so the test information is just what players have figured out.

Shrikes are currently a bit buggy but they do work in same instances. Personally I take mavericks in most instances.

Is thre a complete list of Shrikes that do and don't work at the moment? This bug is super frustrating given how Shrikes work anyway.

This is awesome. Thanks!

Turns out you are that talented person

Are you posting updates to this anywhere? It's great work.

Sounds as if the bombers turn on their Jammer upon being locked, breaking your lock and then turn it off again so you cant do HOJ. That would make sense but I can easily lock them from behind. I'll make a track. #edit - I'm thinking you're right. i'll test this out som emore.

I'm getting something similar but I don't know if it's an issue or a quirk with the radar and jester. I've setup a training mission with 4 flights of 4 H-6 bombers on Sinai. They are incoming at 26kft at 350kts from North to South over a flat bit of desert. The F4 is 50 miles away at 30kft and 400kts head on. As they come into radar Jester is identifying them successfully and I'm able to command him to cycle through all aircraft on the scope. I then perform the action for him to lock, which he does then immediately loses all contacts and the lock. I'm not issuing any additional commands to him as the first few times I tried this he almost got stuck in a loop of responding to inputs.

How did you build your unit tests for this? Or did you go another route? Is this something that can be used on your existing aircraft?

It's a different build that will go to a different environment with possibly a different distribution layer. It's very possible that it's not possible to test absolutely everything until it hits that environment as well because having test environments that are identical to your live ones isn't always possible for numerous reasons. It's not a simple as developer writes code, compiles code, puts on server and you download. While I agree theres always room for improvement I've sat in the seat where ED is right now and what is working is their pre deployment process caught something which is great and shouldn't be ignored.

Probably the best DCS trailer to date.

Yeah, go before that mate.

Context is everything. I'm not going to sit here and argue with you about another conversation you've cherry picked from.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious. That wasn't the conversation that was happening.

That still isn't a reason to hold content back so some YouTubers can drum up interest. Honestly though, Heatblurs cinematic trailers are a league above any YouTuber content. I was on a DCS break around the time the F14 came out. It wasn't a YouTuber content creator that brought me back, it was the F14 video produced by HB. The biggest DCS YouTube channel is sadly GR and they do almost zero promotional content and it they do it's stuck between 2000 videos of hypothetical comedy situations using dodgy mods.
