One thing to keep in mind, don't fire on a jammers unless you know with 100% certainty that it is hostile. Also, there's a fairly good chance that whatever is jamming is outside of your missiles range. Personally, I can't recall ever finding myself in a situation where I've felt that it's necessary to fire on a jamming target(that I haven't burned through). But, I'm sure those situations exist, they're just pretty rare, at least in my experience.

Well then I hope we get it on the Hornet too! ^.^

Fairly certain it happens because the wind makes your plane think it's going to high AoA, which then makes the plane shake as if it is in that state, even though it is stationary on the ground. It has occurred in the past however it seemed to have been fixed. I guess it's reappeared.

There have been issues with some people not appearing for certain people after a mission has been paused. Maybe something to do with that?

They aren't always carried on the outside of the wing pylons, so what we have in DCS isn't necessarily wrong. Here's an example:

It's official, ping filter doesn't like me :(

The dev's have said it will be able to carry the Exocet.

And it would go so well along side the F/A-18C :D Granted we have F/A-18A+'s and B's. Although our A+'s are close enough to the C :P

I think it's safe to say that if the Mirage 2000C S-5 had the capability to fire those missiles (whether the French, or whoever, employed said missiles or not) then we will get the capability to fire those missiles. Of course that goes both ways. If it did not have the capability to fire said missiles, then we won't get that capability. But as far as I'm aware, the devs have said that it does have the capability to use the missiles in question. As has been said, it's not so much a question of whether anyone used them on the particular variant that we're getting, but more a question of whether that variant has the capability or not.

From memory, it was sitting around or just below 400.

Well it was fun while it lasted. Kangaroo flight is RTB :cry:

I'd like to join blue please. Lonewolf ( :( ) Callsign (until someone gives me a better one) : Rudolph Preferred aircraft: F-15 (but will do anything really)

It does work! But only in single player... The problem is the way that fighters are grouped in MP. Rather than having 1-1, 1-2, 1-3 etc., we have 1-1, 2-1, 3-1. It's also something that we've been told is going to be fixed in DCS 2.

Just quietly hoping for an F-111 >.>

Pretty sure there isn't. VEAO's KC-30 will be able to refuel the Mirage, though.

I'd say this is a pretty accurate assessment, for me at least. I really enjoy flying the Su-27, but I just can't look past the advantages that the F-15 enjoys in the form of active missiles (not to mention its RWR). As much as I like flying the Flanker, I also enjoy scoring victories and not getting splashed myself, and I find myself being much more proficient at this when I have AMRAAM's at my disposal. If only we had a Flanker capable of carrying R-77's! I suppose all I can do is eagerly await the MiG-29's A/PFM ^.^

If I see an IR launch, I'm not worried about the missile because IR missiles are relatively easy to defeat with some good throttle control (i.e. slam it to idle ^.^) and flares, if you know they're coming. What I'm more worried about, in that situation, is that aircraft getting in a position to gun me.

There is a separate control for dumping fuel tanks. It will dump all tanks at once, and doesn't run the risk of unintentionally dropping your weapons.

We always knew damage models were strange but... oh my... :megalol:

Move your throttle forward a bit and then back to idle, then try.

I didn't even notice the P-38 there lol. I was talking about when you click the DCS MiG-21 tab on their site. Edit: As Exile has linked. I also can't help but notice that the F-4 seems to have the most detail out of any of those background images... :music_whistling: That being said, they all look quite detailed. Especially the nose of that lightning!

I couldn't help but notice the F6F Hellcat and the F-4 Phantom in the background on their website. Is it possible that they are the two being done, or would that be too obvious? :P

The problem with the MiG-25 is its armament. The MiG-25's R-40's don't have a range comparable to the AIM-54. This is of course if Wikipedia is to be believed. Yes, yes, I know wiki stats for missiles are practically worthless because you aren't given any information about the launch parameters. But with a difference in range of over 100km, even on wiki, it at least gives us an indication that the missiles have vastly different range capabilities. The MiG-31's R-33's seem, at least on the surface, more comparable to the AIM-54. Edit: Please someone tell me I'm wrong! I'd love to see a MiG-25 that can compete with the F-14 in long range BVR in DCS >.<

Grr! I wish my teamspeak didn't disconnect when 3 people speak! >.<I feel like this would have been a great opportunity to get some practice in with the Flanker.
