Are the Russians developing a clone of APKWS laser rockets?
sublime replied to Rick50's topic in Military and Aviation
well the chinese have BRM 90s.. im sure the russians have laser guided rockets if china does -
A new Jester feature request. CHECKLIST Challenge
sublime replied to flybull's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
nevermind him I made a (albeit not that good) joke in the hind forum and just got days of grief over it I figured any post with literally "Arnold S voice 'DO IT! DO IT NOW!' wouldnt be taken seriously.. -
A new Jester feature request. CHECKLIST Challenge
sublime replied to flybull's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
the JF17 has the coolest checklist in game bar none for hte F14 .. you do know theres bolted on checklists right Legit in front and back theres startup placards bolted on... howver yes this would be a cool option HOWEVER BEFORE THEY ADD NEW STUFF I WANT WHAT WAS PROMISED!!!! F14A - FORRESTAL - A6E INTRUDER AI ALSO IFF INTERROGATE AND JESTER DOING LGBS. TEXTURES FOR BOMB RACKS! THERES STILL LOTS UNFINISHED! PLEASE DONT MAKE NEW STUFF -
Fanbois - easy easy. I love HB then Dekka the most. However... I dont want JUST the A status. What about A6s? i was reading fascinating accounts of the mining ops in Desert Storm with A6s. escorted by F14s. We NEED a6s. Especially as they figured HEAVILY into ANY F14 plans ESPECIALLY 70s and 80s. And what about the Forrestal? I know you guys cant really say; but I reallllly feel like ED told you guys to knock it off with the Forrestal because SC. Frankly that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Any info would be greatly appreciated especially on the A6. the plane is near to my heart. and I vaguely remember you guys saying you were trying to get rights to model it. Im telling you now, Ill kill someone for you for the module. just joking (legal disclaimer) or am I? ;) Like to add at current hitman prices thats 140 buys immediately just from me( in value) if u take my offer up !
-
Thanks for the info. So realistically, if a server wanted to be realish, theyd have a bunch of A slots and a couple of Bs thats it no?
-
Maybe IRL not in game.. Well wait I know what you mean, you mean the different beeps on the RWR. what Im talking about is different. the RIOs apparently could hear a continous noise that sounded different per radar when being tracked
-
yes but Ive never seen it mentioned so much or at all in the in game manual or text for other planes. also rereading the first post one could interpret what he wrote as there will be audio tones..
-
Oh so that IS a bug? Thank god I was wondering why the hell anyone would design a plane like that
-
Ill definitely fly the A. It heavily outnumbered the B until at least the mid 80s. A lot of cold war scenarios are for the A. and the A isnt as bad as people think, just pit it against contemporaries and know what youre doing. And as you said - Iran. I have the DCE Tomcat IRIAF campaign. Im dying to have it be 'legit' by flying an A instead of a B.
-
hey awesome. I have a question. it was mentioned RIOs could actually hear different radar emissions in their head sets, or maybe it was missile tones. It was also hinted that you may simulate this down the road. Has consideration to this been given
-
I never claimed to be a comedian. Im very active on this and some other parts of ED. I figured itd be more or less obvious I wasnt being serious. Anyone whose read *any* of my content would note that the 'ignore the whines' etc is totally out of character for someone who is hard on ED> and it wasnt supposed to be lmfao material, it was just a joke, suppposed to be a little thing. I didnt think itd excite everyone to the point of them thinking Im somehow in control of what ED does.
-
riiight. no, there was no trolling, trolling would be like fake info. It was a mere joke. I just asked you to stay away from me, because you have a nasty habit of being rude and calling people names, then reporting them if they respond in kind. I have no respect for that, nor you. please stop responding to me thanks.

Are the Russians developing a clone of APKWS laser rockets?
sublime replied to Rick50's topic in Military and Aviation
Hey, this has come up on another thread sort of. What *DID* they use to gauge range then? Guesstimation or,...? -
good points mind I wasnt saying put jester in and name it jesterski and job jobbed. I meant Jester as the pre alpha base and working from there.after a year or two, itd be almost unrecognizable. For example a Polaris missile is the progeny of a V2 (many generations..) but i f you looked at it, besides the obvious of both being rockets you wouldnt see any similarity.
-
falanga range *wiki* 0.5 to 2.5 kilometres (0.31 to 1.55 mi) shturm range *wiki* 400–5,000 m (0.25–3.11 mi) Searching for " Mi24 rangefinder" and "how did mi24s in the 70s and 80s find range" produced results but I didnt feel like digging that much. As far as aiming, theyre wire guided and I think you just keep crosshairs on target. The range issue, as in whether theyre in range or not, is a good question
-
my guess is either the sight has an easy range finder (almost imagine the slope on the dragonuv sight) or some such. I think missiles are wired guided. Ill go google the missiles and brb

ok which makes sense. sort of. ED then needs to make up its mind - are the developers part of DCS and allies , or are they mere guests in our world?? See the fact is this, this isnt about being reliant - this isnt oil or coal. its a code. They simply ask or buy Jester from HB and build on it. Why not??? The Chinese copy foreign tech all the time. We and the Russians stole Nazi scientests. Just because the owners changed the results didnt! HB whether anyone likes it or not did what NO ONE else has done. They made a *FUNCTIONAL* co pilot. It seems *INSANE* that ED wouldnt Build or at least heavily interact with HB about 'lessons learned' I understand again, not being dependent, but ffs this isnt geopolitics or war. HB is a company sellng DCS products. These statements confuse me - exactly what are these 3rd party companies to ED then? Maybe it was translationn but your explanation made it sound like basically those parties are seen as *Rivals* by ED. And if thats the casee Im VERY upset with ED because we were imminently supposed to get the Forrestal for the F14 and the SC came out and suddenly Forrestal mysteriously was delayed and now never has come out. say what you will, Im CERTAIN ED told HB "Dont release that youll mess up our sales wait at least" and waiting turned into never or REALLY LATE.
-
yeah its sorta ridiculous the Gazelle multicrew is broken and you have to jump both seats. its doable in the gazelle but... The thing is I dont think these companies look at DCS quite like we do. We see it as one sim, I think they all see themselves as seperate entities and I hardly think HB will just share Jester code without some financial arrangement. In the end they are businesses. Thats also why they cant just take Jester and build on Jester, which if you think about it would be the most expedient method - altering the already existing jester and building on him for the mi24 from the getgo. it would have been a hell of a pedestal, Im not quite sure it works like that though. I mean the quality (IMO) of modules from some of the companies is A LOT better than others to me at least..

Su-30MKK Full fid or FC3 version?
sublime replied to TaxDollarsAtWork's topic in Deka Ironwork Simulations
this is why I think DCS should focus more on capping towards 1990. ww2 to 1990. not that I dont wish for more futuristic planes, just that anyone who thinks the russians would seriously share data on any plane that their military flies or even sells to make a full fidelity model, theyre smoking crack. ffs, someone got arrested in the US over the damn F16 module boarding an airplane with flight manuals for a F16A... -
interesting. I dont have much to say besides I really really hope political correctness or worrying about what sex the pilot is doesnt get involved in any way shape or form in the development of the mi24 module. Theres literally almost anything else I can name in the world thats more important to flights sims than bringing up female discrimination and spending time adressing it because political correctness. I do lean more towards liking the idea of variety, and especially with the radio; but I couldnt and still have trouble overcoming the negative emotions your suggestion evoked when you brought up sexual discrimination...
