Up, I know it's only cosmetic, but it shouldn't be that hard to fix and it's still there in latest OB.

In don't know. I discussed about it with a former Mirage F1 CT pilot and according to him, the problem is over exaggerated. He used to refuel from C160 Transall (which is even slower than C-130H) while operating in Africa. By the way, you can re-arm the ALT with corresponding switches above failure panel. @RDN_Garrett About ALT load, also take note that POLICE light and taxi/ landing light are ON when you take the jet "hot". This may be unnecessary load depending on the circumstances.

The thing is with radar in SBY you can still detect contacts, lock and guide a Super 530F, you're just missing some guidance symbols in the HUD.

I don't know if this a bug or intended behavior. I tried and AA mission in Mirage F1 RE with 2*Magic 1, 2 Super 530F, 1 BARAX pod, 1 fuel tank. From the rotation the asymmetric weight of the BARAX pod, despite a limited weight (below 90kg) is a pain to handle. Unfortunately it's more a less true across all modules. During the mission I shot the Super 530F on the opposite wing to the pod. So I came back with a Super 530F and BARAX pod under the same wing. I'm always trying to trim both pitch and roll before engaging auto-pilot. But when I do so, it seems the AP starts by cancelling my roll trim input before trimming by himself. The plane rolled to the left then bringed the wings back to level. But it stayed off course (CAP mode engaged). But if you try to do that at low speed to use ILS mode, the plane will get out of control and unable to bring wings to level flight (heavy roll and pitch down)

To me it does make sense. When you're landing you have some AoA (about 10°), so it makes sense to have the light tilted down to illuminate the runway. When you're rolling you need a flat angle to illuminate the taxiway.

Thanks

I can confirm the same bug. I came to report it, but the report was already there.

When you drop bombs you can can set the weapon system to single or salvo. When you are in salvo, can you set the bomb spacing interval ? I didn't find any way...

Yes, export models were fitted with RDM radar which was not very good in look down/ shoot down.

Hi, Great project, could you check your private messages please ?

Really nice, but they used to mount BARAX on the left and PHIMAT on the right

1- did the bomber used jammer ? 2- does Super 530F in game has HOJ ? I got this problem with Hornet and AIM-7 Sparrow.

It’s really weird. in my mission with 2 tankers, if I switch from 37X to 37Y, it keeps indicating range and bearing to 37X tanker. If I delete 37X tanker, it won’t indicate 37Y tanker. Others modules have no issue switching between both tankers.

I set up a mission with 2 tankers flying 3 Nm appart. I'm flying lined up behind the 37X tanker. M-2000C, Hornet, Harrier: I can detect both tankers in 37X and 37Y in T/R mode. Mirage F1EE, TACAN T/R, R Nav N: I can detect 37X but not 37Y.

To begin with, in DCS, tanker’s TACAN works in T/R mode. Good or bad, it is the way it is. How can you be sure it isn’t a mistake in mission’s briefing ?

For the record, I just tested with 2 tankers, one on 37X, the other on 37Y. Indeed, with Mirage F1EE the needle stayed pointed onto 37X, no matter X or Y selection. I switched the plane for M-2000C and it worked, it pointed on each tanker with correct range depending on X or Y selection. TACAN in T/R mode in both cases, I didn't try A/A. So the bug is on the module, not on DCS...

Only Morocco heavily upgraded Mirage F1 can use the Mica. But it’s a totally different weapon system. They managed to squeeze Mirage 2000-5 weapon system into Mirage F1…or sort of. It’s a different radar derived from RDY, not Cyrano IV anymore. And there is 0 chance to get data on that one…

Hi, It’s a minor issue, but also probably an easy fix. Super 530F seems to seat to far back on the rail. The tail section of the missile extend below the flaps. Here are real pictures for reference, it isn’t perfect profile picture, but you can see it doesn’t extend below the flaps. https://www.airliners.net/photo/Spain-Air-Force/Dassault-Mirage-F1EDA/804121/L?qsp=eJxtjrEOgkAQRP9lawpBIEgnFlZGC39gc7fAJchd9pZEQvh37yDRxm5mJ/tmFlB2FHrLc3YENXhCVj0k4JDx5aFeAA0rxlZuOE4tKpmYGOo0Tb5Jg96oHZAfitMvuNJI/D8KhKqsdshgxthdZHlaxOreir2gUGd5hjo8ecvSBAk6XM9KkRPSsN/vrOMe0OTVtruLrCxK4sfujmWw2ng34EYhQTPAun4ApG1TTg%3D%3D

I don’t know if you’re aware about that but, A/A TACAN works in M-2000C with other modules. Each should be 63 channels apart (for instance 12X and 75X) and you will only get range information. This is how A/A is supposed to work. In DCS World, tanker’s TACAN works like ground or aircraft carrier TACAN. This kind of small TACAN for air tankers do exist, but this is a late modern feature.

As @=36=Witcher said, this is an export variant. I can only assume, but the LASER switch is probably to arm the laser of the TGP. There is also a TV/ RDR switch on the VTB, probably to switch the video source. This PPA with laser switch and VTB with TV/ RDR seem to be standard on export Mirage 2000E, even if the country didn't fit TGP in the Mirage. For instance, you can find these switches on Mirage 2000EG like this VTB.

With the limited amount of internal fuel (3165kg on standard day) and the generous use of after burner, you can expect the plane to start up at 100% fuel. But "start up + taxi + take off" generally cost about 200kg of fuel.

In my experience, if you let MiG-25 or MiG-31 at subsonic speed, they are disappointing. But if you set them at M2.0 or M2.5, they can give you a run for your money

Yes, that's what I mean. It doesn't seem to come as standard with TACAN in DCS. So maybe 3rd parties have go extra miles to make this work ?

Thanks, I didn't know, I don't own this module !

This seems to be a missing feature of radio navigation functions within DCS. While TACAN can't give bearing to a VOR station and a VOR receiver can't guide to a TACAN station, the DME (Distance Measuring Equipment) function is the same. So by using pairing channel, a fighter equipped with a TACAN but not civilian DME should still be able to get distance to a DME or VOR-DME beacon. I tried with both Aerges Mirage F1 and Razbam M-2000C, it doesn't work. I think it should be part of core DCS World TACAN simulation. https://www.flightsim-corner.com/wp-content/uploads/VOR-Frequencies-to-TACAN-Channel-list.pdf
