Yes, but that's still better than when the missle just misses.

Very good thanks. But why should that be a problem, better damage than none or?

Test it out and evaluate what you see. Put an f18 or whatever on the ground and try to make an aim120 hit the ground at 10,15,20,~30m Distance. Depending on how far away the explosion is, the damage will be different.

That would be the case over 15 meters, within 15 is specified kill radius In my latest tests, the aim120 in dcs world has a fairly safe kill radius of 15m. The higher this distance is +15 the less damage is done. 50% chances of survival would also be possible, depending on where the missile explodes. So the explosive power of the missile is easily able to destroy a plane at 15m in dcs.

Wow, that doesn't sound good, especially considering the price...what did you pay for everything? Could you share some more detailed pictures with us? thx

I agreed, almost alignment does not seem to be there for combat operations. Normal alignment is therefore almost necessary if you want to fly a combat mission. But 15 minutes of just waiting is a long, long time. When you're playing with a lot of people, something unexpected can always happen. And if you have to take a new KA-50, you have to wait another 15 minutes.

Was the target an f16? or Does every aircraft get the warning?

Hm that surprises me. Because when I fly in an undamaged p51 top speed and test the same again with one where wing is heavily damaged I don't see any difference. Shouldn't the damaged one at least slow down a bit? Thx

From which plane is your last experience? And about the one inclusion hole, or damage in general, I was just talking about high speeds for now. And as I said do not confuse cable damage with the aerodynamic.

you have an example? do not confuse this with control cable damage. as far as i have been able to observe, damage has no arodynamic effect on the aircrafts. No matter how badly one wing or even both are damaged, you can still fly just as fast as without damage. even a single hit of the 50-calibre on a wing should slow the aircraft down slightly,but that does not happen. Therefore, grafspee has a point.

something that summarises the whole thing well, if something is unclear in the video please say so, I will have a closer look at your post later, I don't have that much time at the moment. I have created a Fixpoint 3 to simulate a 1km drift, the results are as follows: 1. the waypoint is 1km north, as you would expect. 2. The target point, however, is 2km south.

Very interesting point! so I tested that directly I created a Fixpoint 3 to cause a deliberate drift 1km away from me. so if it drifts the INU HDG i should be pretty much on the secured target after saving? as far as i understood you. But what happens is that the saved point gets twice the deviation. 1km drift suddenly becomes 2 each drift always causes double for saved points EDIT: And another thing, why is the Point drifting towards me, I would expect it to drift further away from me in the scenario? but the point comes closer. yes and that is a good thing

After the last update, there were some improvements regarding the data linkPoints. however, one question remains that he mentions what do you think about that?

Very good advice, thank you! so the DISS seems to warm up first or at least only comes on after a while when you have taken off. as far as I could observe.

After the quick start I can fly there directly? I heard that the DISS must still warm up, otherwise you get faster drifts. Does the diss already warm up when you are on the ground or do you need to take off? Is there a display that tells me when the diss is warmed up? And if it is not warmed up and I take off and then do a fixa later would that be enough? Thx

hm why does an quick alignment already drift at 10 degrees? in a test flight i had 1km drifts shortly after take off

What start-up procedure did you use?

my mistake 90° is correct, when I wrote that my brain told me a circle is 180° lol So an SA-10 can attack 5 targets within 90° the SA-3 TR SNR-125 scan in a area of 90°, but as soon as it locks a target, the beam is around ~4° can therefore also only lock one target.

Yes there is, the radar immediately disappears from the RWR, similar also with the HTS pod. Only the radar of DCS does not turn off without mods, as far as I know. Maybe that's true depending on how exactly it's meant? I will test that again.

It depends, when the radar is tracking a target the beam is only 45°. So it has been at least with sa-10, with my last tests

good point, but I would think that the rocket also senses the sidelobes, especially when the rocket is closer. do you have the Nevada map? He did the test there, so you must have the map to view the file.

and what exactly was the situation like? Which AGM88 was it and, above all, did the radar remain active the whole time? what you describe can be recreated in DCS depending on how early or late you switch off the radar, so this comparison does not seem suitable to me. we are discussing the accuracy of the AGM-88 when the radar is on. because on the other hand there are a lot of actual videos and older ones where the Harm goes spot on to the emitter.

So?

I would think that the same rule should apply here as with the AGM84D, where you can programme the rocket for each station beforehand> Pre-brief = PB
