It's strange that no weapon list was provided with preorder announcement.

Basically what can be said at this stage is ED is developing USAF F-35. Everything else is TBD. It's hard to understand ED opened F-35A forum in such state. Did you see weapon list in FAQ section cut half or less just after announcement? How can ED be so confident to making realistic F-35 simulator when you don't know what weapon systems will be needed.

Offical skins other than USAF should be considered as bonus. Better not to expect more, especially for ED modules.

"Study level simulater" without almost no proper documentation with lots of bugs and wips. Users have no idea what is bug, wip, or just doing something wrong. What a nightmere DCS is...

Just curious, if MMC has drift (up to 30m), how does sensor designation offer better accuracy? Doesn't aircraft sensor also depend on MMC's accuracy?

Here it is. IL-76 flying away at M 0.3, 20000ft. F/A-18 chasing at over M 1.0 at 17000ft. Commnaded STT, radar tried to go HPRF STT and couldn't hold STT so it changed to MPRF STT automaticaly. AIM-7 launched, radar switched to HPRF PDI but again couldn't hold track, radar went MPRF PDI (?) and continued to guide missile. Target destroyed. F-18 radar.trk

If ED is really confident with current F/A-18 status, they would proudly announce out of EA stage for their flag ship module...

All Razbam module doesn't support “engage my target” commnad unfortunately. I requested working “engage my target” and "engage target at my SPI" command for AV-8B many years ago, and result is as you know.

ED have tendency to not bother stopgap solution and only care about "perfect" solution which need years to implement and require another years to mature.

Typical ED's movement. ED announce something, then go completely radio silence for monthes or years. Thread like this will be ignored or closed.

It's not so new feature

Not bug. If you try to STT, target tries to break STT by activating ECM. Radar cannot resolve range(display 99.9 range in HUD) while ECM is in effect until you close in certain range(burn through).

Thank you for nice Q&A. Looking foward to J-8PP. Where is radar information shown? On HDD?

And I assume heatblur worked very hard to get those documents. They paid certain amounts of time and cost and, may have needed hard and long discussions, negociations. I don't expect heatblur share those easly.

I think asking randam conpany "Hey, I want XXX documents you reserched for YYY product" is big NO NO in common sence. Let's stay away from that.

Looks like ED has zero interest about this area.

I guess that is fuel bingo warnig.

Helljumper posted some STR and ITR charts for DCS M-2000C at RAZBAM discord. They are pined in mirage-2000c channel.

Do you use Designated MITL control mode? This option gives me very fine control. null

Radar will switch to STT when you press triger so it shouldn't matter most of time.

In petfect world ED should implement "talk on", laser or cordinate designation. However it will unlikely happen, at least foreseeable future. And, yes, sending designation directly in F/A-18 is not realstic, but no control over what wingman attack is totally unrealstic too. So ED may chose either of two ways. First way, ED does nothing, untill they figure out realstic way of how to interact AI wingman. Unfortunately, I even never heard about plan of improvement on this arena, so it will take loooooooooong. Second way, as a tempraly solution, ED uses already availiable function, to give more cotrol to AI wingman. It will not perfectly realstic, but will give great flexbility in SP. MP is fun for sure, but SP is as much as important in DCS game play.

Bump. During over 4 years of Early Access, zero improvement on this. Actually, worse implementetion than A-10C or KA-50 which released over a decade ago. Furthermore, Deka's JF-17 has very good ability to designate ground target for AI wingman using already available interface in DCS. Why can't ED's flag ship module use same functions.

From ED's manual Target Aging's pointer in manual's pic seems off. ED's fault

AI JF-17 refuse to use GBU-12 and LS-6 100 for ground target. Other guided bomb (LS-6 250, 500 and GB-6) works fine. AI_GBU-12.trkAI_LS-6_100.trkAI_LS-6_500.trkAI_LS-6_250.trkAI_GB-6.trk For reference, AI F-16 and F/A-18 can use GBU. Please ignore LGB missing, it's completely ED's issue lasting for many monthes. AI_F-16.trkAI_F-18.trk Also, as track shows, LS-6 250 seems to have problem in terminal phaze. It tends to hit short or long.

Still AI can't use LGB
