  1. getDetectedTargets() retains the detected targets and never resets itself. Once it detects a target it will retain it "forever" even if it's way beyond the detection range. I tested it with enum 1, 4 and nil and it's the same. local SAM = "Ground-1-1" local maxRange = 30000 local controller_unit = Unit.getController(Unit.getByName(SAM)) local tDetectedTargets = controller_unit:getDetectedTargets() for i, v in ipairs(tDetectedTargets) do if v then local objName = Object.getName(tDetectedTargets[i].object) if Unit.getByName(objName) then local coal = Unit.getByName(objName):getCoalition() if coal == 2 then local coord1 = Unit.getByName(SAM):getPoint() local coord2 = Unit.getByName(objName):getPoint() local distancia = Distancia(nil, nil, coord1, coord2) if distancia < maxRange then a = 1 else a = 0 end end end end end
  2. The problem may be also be multiplayer servers. I wouldn't say its not posible but the scenario were 30 vs 30 fighters, all fighting in the same place at the same time is... strange in real life.
  3. In DCS I find the JDAMs lose a lot of speed if you try to loft them above 5-10º. I drop the bombs at around 5nm with minimal pitch (around 5º), I don't know the altitude sorry since I never check because of defensive maneuvers but maybe 1.000ft, very high speed 750kts. The bombs arrive with a lot of energy and minimal time of flight. You need to use the trees for ingress-egress. The speed you carry helps a lot for the defensive egress, you need to take care of Gs! If I have a mountain that I could use its great. Yeah its dangerous but those bombs are deadly.
  4. Maybe you're dropping them to high and far. At 5nm and M1, they are not able to intercept them.
  5. It works up to 15nm, I tested it in the patch before this one.
  6. It's about 15nm. It wasn't reflected in the F-15E TGP rengefinding return, I don't know if it was fixed now.
  7. It should update the coordinate by looking at the laser, I don't know how it works on DCS. I guess it will guide like a paveway II
  8. DLAA and DLSS will make the graphics worse. There's no magic FPS gain without consequence. MSAA is better (the best?) antialiasing.
  9. JTIDS and Link-16 are compatible. IRL the SIT page has a lot of information, we don't know how many of this information will be available in DCS. It should be compatible with F-16 and F-18 DCS datalink.

    AGM-154

    If I'm not mistaken, the BLU-97 in the CBU-87 don't have drag chutes so they are more useful since they drift is less.

    AGM-154

    AGM-154A uses BLU-97 which are not CBU-97

    AGM-154

    The AGM-154C it's only for the navy. The AGM-154A it's useless in DCS, BLU-97 fly away with the wind. Very unreliable weapon.
  13. Is it possible to load points without any Plan in the aircraft? (not in the mission editor)
  14. Hi, the Flyup enable switch is not working?

    IFF Mode 4

    IFF is something that ED could put into the game without any need for real simulation. We have made up radars like the F18 and F16, but we can't have some basic IFF functionality.
  16. The aircraft has JTIDS and compatibility with L16 but its not implemented yet. It will be displayed in the SIT page.
  17. There're no weapons currently available for that pod why would it be functional years before any of the weapons which uses that pod?
  18. I'm pretty sure its not accesible but also I don't see it being of great use from the WSO cockpit. It's way more useful for the pilot since he's the one looking in front. Oh I forgot, for the pilot to use the SS it needs to have SOI the A/A Radar, if the WSO is controlling the radar the pilot can't SS!
  19. I never had any issues with over-G. I've Never broke the aircraft just for "flying" it, I don't know how people fly to manage to brake it. A video would be appreciated.
  20. Maybe a small overlay icon
  21. AGM-154 A in DCS is useless, very unpredictable with all the BLU-97 flying away with the wind.
  22. A WSO friend and me (pilot) attacked 2 ground targets with only radar designation because of weather. 1 EWR (55 type) and 1 antena ( the static, the big antena red and white I think it is). We used 2 GBU-31, both weapons destroyed their target. We knew the general location so we had a waypoint nearby for altitude.
  23. You should download another program to cycle the steerpoints. Joking.
  24. Just throwing numbers, my guess is at least 1+ year for GBU-15 and 2+years for AGM-130.
