Yeah, busted for me now too. Vaicom seems to be dead.

Whoops, posted on the wrong mod. Meant to be the rain fix.

Will this be updated for 2.8 compatibility?

Did you remember to turn on MIDS LVT?

This mod was crashing DCS for me when slotting into a jet as of 9/29/2022.

I've heard it's a thing IRL, but it doesn't generally happen in DCS except at extremely light weights (like after a sortie) or on an incline. An example of areas of where it does occur is the EOR by the 03L end of Nellis (low weight), or Incirlik EOR on the 23(?) end due to the incline.

The DTC lets you customize however you want anyway. Why not make the default more user friendly?

Adding on to this, the PW2 uses “bang-bang” guidance, which is basically a bunch of full deflections, which is probably why there is no DLZ. It’s inefficient and leads to a lot of overshooting on the way down. PW3 behaves more like a JDAM and should be continuously lased.

@NineLine @BIGNEWY

Yeah, I think someone goofed and this line was for the Hornet

What are these HOTAS improvements? Are these additional bindings or differing logic? There's no indication of what's changed in the patch notes.

AIM-120s should be loaded on the wingtips in the Viper. AIM-9s go inboard to reduce wing flutter and stress. You shouldn’t be flying the Viper outside of mid 400kts if you can help it to maintain best rate speed unless you are pulling for the 1C HOBS shot with the 9X. You need to fly the Viper like a Viper, not a Hornet.

I'm well aware of where the data for the HAD comes from. When in PB, you get a narrow cone, you do not get the ovoid. That's consistent with other simulators out there.

They're not though. HAD is just the display. The launch mode, as I was mentioning earlier, is still going to be a submode of POS. When you go to the WPN Video page and select PB, you are changing the mode the HARM is shooting in. HAD is just displaying that change and will give you a much more narrow launch window, because it's meant to be used against a pre-briefed target. In PB, you are giving the HARM a terminal search profile of 20nm radius if I'm not mistaken, which is huge. EOM that terminal search range is 5nm radius. http://www.ausairpower.net/USN/HARM-Profiles-S.jpg That picture provides a good example of the flight profiles of the HARM. EOM is the most accurate flight profile.

That wouldn’t actually make any sense at all. The mode is POS, and the submode is generally EOM. It’s called the HAD because it’s displaying the attack profile of the HARM and various targetable emitters, their general locations, the emitter status, and accuracy of the fix. You are still shooting in a POS submode, so the mode doesn’t change.

It's definitely many. ATC rework was promised years ago, and I hope it's in the works.

That doesn't give you anything useful for TOLD at 1850 feet.

Most countries use QNH, not QFE. To expand on this, QFE is altitude above the field, whereas QNH is altitude above sea level below transition level (usually 18000ft). QNH should give you a better understanding of your aircraft’s performance for TOLD.

The last few OB updates, ED made it so that you need to release them with 5mil constraints instead of 3/9 which to my understanding is incorrect. That means you need to be very accurate with lining up the ASL to release.

The magnetic heading of the runway with ILS active.

@Frederf This is for the HAD. The "class" is the HAD threat table. You can see the SA-15 matches up to #1 as you mentioned. Edit: I can't remember who made these kneeboards, but someone posted them in another thread some months ago when the HTS was released.

The full table is above, but you can always create a manual table and turn off the default tables for faster scanning.

Did you ever get this resolved?

I am unable to get the TX setting to work correctly. When I long press, listening does not suspend, despite following all of the steps in the manual. The only way for me to be able to talk over SRS with this setting is to basically go through 3 button clicks before I am able to speak, and Vaicom/VA are listening constantly for any communication.
