So since the update on Thursday the canopy ejectors are always shown deployed. You can easily test that yourself by getting into a cold and dark aircraft. The canopy is closeable though, so it seems to be only a visual bug. The bugtracker does not have the recent DCS version yet, so I was unable to report it through there.

Again have you ever dropped a RN-24 without exploding? No? Then do not try to convince us it is working as it should. Even if it is not a fully moduled nuke, it should atleast be usable as in the real procedures, which it currently is not as the blast radius is well above what it should be.

Did you actually try that yourself with the RN-24? Because that looks pretty much like my last try with it and it still killed me. Actually I have not once been able to use the 24 without exploding, while ground damage was minimal. The RN-28 is a different story though.

The jamming part is working although not super effective. Automatic release of countermeasures is broken though. However jamming does not help you a lot in the MiG-21, as it will be burned through before you are in range. Tested it online on a private server against a Mirage.

And underperforming at low altitude by roughly 20%.

Ein gigantischer Vorteil ist, dass man auch im dunkel noch etwas sieht. Das geht bei der TV Variante nur mit Aufwand und 1970 ging das noch überhaupt nicht. Dann kommt noch hinzu, dass man mit dem Radar weiter gucken kann und gerade für die Hauptaufgabe, nämlich das bekämpfen von Schiffen, ist die Darstellung in Kartenansicht wesentlich praktischer als die Perspektive des Piloten, bzw. einer Kamera.

Hätte es jetzt so verstanden, dass sich der Post von Chizh explizit auf die Hawk bezieht. Kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass irgendein Entwickler zustimmen wird den Quellcode mitzuliefern.

Porrima Simulations sind wohl auch die gleichen Leute... Leider ist es in der Computerspielbranche mittlerweile leider nicht einmal mehr selbstverständlich überhaupt ein Produkt für welches Kunden vorher bezahlt haben zu veröffentlichen, geschweige denn zu beenden.

Sehe ich richtig, dass die Leute von VEAO bereits eine neue Firma gegründet haben? Hoffe das Sergey Titov Modell macht nicht auch in DCS Schule.

Genau deswegen habe ich mir die F-14 immer noch nicht vorbestellt. Dann kann ich bei release endlich mal den Bonus loswerden.

Da es mittlerweile auch eklatante Fehler in die Stable Version geschafft haben, wie der Laser Maverick Bug, der alle Spieler auf dem Server in einen CTD geschickt hat, gibt es wirklich keinen Grund mehr die Stable Version zu benutzen. Multiplayer läuft eh zu 98% auf der Open Beta ab.

Column 3 is correct, 4 is (weapon-)launch speed, 5 launch height, 6 launch distance. Annotation 1 basically says to take target altitude difference to airport into account, due to QFE being used. I cannot do any good translation of that. Annotation 3: When ending the dive, use at least 4g.

Has anyone reading that document figured out, why the very same missile has different range, or at least launch zone, when fired from different MiG-21 variants? I can not think of any reason for that.

Did anyone do a stream of the event? Would like to see how it is going and may give it a try next time.

Dropping the central fuel tank is so important, that they have put the button for it on the stick. It is the pinky button, but you will have to map it or use the standard key, as it is not reachable by mouseclick.

No, the MiG-21 can not dump fuel. But the afterburner does the job pretty well.

Okay that may already be it, thank you. In case of the MiG-21, the folder names and displayed names are actually different.

Could you maybe have a look into the livery override for the MiG-21? For some reason it is the only aircraft which ignores this setting and will always have the Serbian as default. And yes I do have tried various liveries and made sure the naming was correct.

I will get the same problem when entering a two digit bort number and switching to a two number system livery, like the DPRK one. Switching to anything other after that will show a broken number, even if entering 3 digits. However switching between aircrafts while keeping the 3 digit number, solves the problem for me.

My guess for the second one would be MAC.

Per the books maximum speed procedure is about this: -Take off with afterburner -Climb to 10.000 m without afterburner -Stay at 10.000 m and 530 km/h IAS until 130 km away from the airport -Turn towards the airport -Accelerate to 1200 km/h IAS with afterburner by decending about 1000 m -Climb to 11.500 m at 1200 km/h IAS -Level off and accelerate until hitting Mach 2.05 or 700 l fuel left -Head back home I was actually able to achieve Mach 2.25 in clean configuration this way, then the engine cut out, probably simulating engine failure due to overspeed.

Maybe those armchair pilots would make better MiG-21 pilots then :doh:

Hello together, for the purpose of building missions in a way of most possible realism, I would like to collect some data on features and loadouts, that are included in DCS modules, but should not be there as they do not belong on the aircraft type. I know that on some aircrafts there are settings to deactivate certain unrealistic features, but as I do not own all modules, I am not 100 % sure of what they are. Same goes for loadouts. If we can collect those in one thread, this may also help others in the same position as I am. I will make a start with one of the modules I do own and know pretty well: MiG-21bis Features: -Unrealistic IR Pipper (I am currently unsure though, how to deactivate it through the mission editor) Loadouts: -Kh-66 -Gun Pods -RS-2US -Combination of S-24 and S-5 Rokets -Several other mixed loadouts Furthermore I have read something about the Mirage 2000C not having the missile launch warning build in. This can be turned of via the mission editor.

Now thats nice to hear!
