Dev can already decide if missile guides off rail, HB does that with phantom. They can do it even with flood without STT. Aerges should be able to simply launch dead missile off rail if enemy is simply too low.

I know the priority track and what it does. Its up to 6 targets. Mainly used to guide amraam. What i cant find anywhere. Especially publicly available (not leaked manuals but couldn't find it in there either) is scan speed of radar dish.

Hello everyone, I would like to ask if there is any public information/source (as official as possible but not classified or from manual) about ECR-90 or Captor-M scan speed/rate. Not dish movement itself (even though useful too) but also how long it either takes to complete full scan. Or just number of how fast it moves under RWS/TWS. Any info about priority track would be welcomed too. I cant really find any numbers about it. Just antenna scan limits, modes but no numbers about speed. I read that it can perform AG/AA modes at the same time few times but i cant find any official source for that, neither how fast it is (should be given you need quick scan for proper TWS and priority target track)

Is there any ETA on model?

nullEvery single reason you posted why not to include extremely important variant and stepping stone between 9B and 9J, when its in fact ALREADY IN FKIN GAME... is insane. Sometimes i wonder how **** people on forums can get yet always someone delivers on spectacular level. from 9E is just wider FOV 9B to actually being totally wrong, to just use SIGNIFICANTLY MORE ADVANCED 9J when it was barely used in SEA and early CW air warfare, to but hey, it was PARTIALLY used during one operation with few dozen launches from specific squardon using specific sidewinders. THE FACT STANDS.... 9J CANNOT replace 9E. Performance wise and date wise.

no its not... its 3-4 years ahead of 9E.... its literally few last months of combat, used in few sorties and had only few launches.

And uncage and better acquisition angles and better aerodynamics. Its different enough to warrant its addition to F-4E. Epsecially when it already exists in game itself. 9B cant uncage, its uncooled seeker had worse acquisition envelope and worse low altitude performance due to worse aerodynamics. It upgraded 9B in every aspect other than max G load. The seekers iFov was smaller too so less prone for flares to enter it and decoy it.

As of now, we are missing Aim-9E on F-4E. It was already added to DCS though, with wrong model but added. I asked and its finished code-wise and missing proper model. Yet 3rd parties can already use said missile. It would be nice to get it sooner than later when from performance view, its finished. It just looks like aim 9J. When model is added, we wont have to wait for next update cycle but we will get it corrected right away. Not like model matters that much. As of now, 7E2 is using 7E model, 9Ps are wrong dimension-wise and they are still present without anyone caring that much. It would be neat if HB added it as soon as they could and not wait for model which could even take months as it was already months in game files without proper model.

Thank you for clarification. I suppose that also means 3rd parties cant implement it yet and have to wait for full model?

@Маэстро Sorry for ping but may i ask if 9E in game is finished product or waiting to be finished? LUA is in, its in encyclopedia just with wrong (9J) model and can be launched if LUAad on plane. Can this missile be already used by 3rd parties or do they have to wait for full implementation?

This is dcs. No ground unit has good enough DM... One bomblet from heat cluster should be enough to mission kill almost any vehicle it hits center mass. In DCS, it does %dmg. Shrike in dcs upon direct hit should destroy any radar unit as we cant really disable radar antennas on them

Chaff can be dealt with by filters, some logic and range gating in lock. Clutter on the other hand, mainly strong sidelobes, are issue for MTI. And esp for cyrano and its design. Nerf? No... Just proper stimulation of pulse radar with barely working MTI and only pulse guided missiles.

PL-11 is aspide. Both engine and seeker, its copy of aspide. Aspide is slightly upgraded 7E - new seeker and slightly better engine. Its far from 7F/M. It got somewhat upgraded engine that burns for 3-3,5 seconds.

You still have 530F... its on level of 7F at altitude and beats R-27R. Be happy for what it is now. It should get only worse. Properly simulated radar will hamper its AA performance, especially in lookdown scenarios or at low altitude. If aerges manages to fit missile limits in module itself, you can forget about radar missiles at deck level or in shood down. The missiles are incapable of that.

They do... they asked BN to close ONLY viable and extremely good bug report for its FM so they dont have to deal with it. We are at point where ED should just step in and give ultimatum - overhaul this clickable sub FC3 quality trash or we will remove it from shop/take over it. Its in unacceptable state and is absolutely out of quality standards of even modules years old. Mig-19 or M2000 were in terrible state too, similar quality to 21. Both were given outstanding reworks. Mirage 2000C went from one of the worst simulated fighters to BEST simulated fighter in DCS. It is NOT acceptable that ED sells this slop, let alone for the price its set at. I have no idea how they can even sell something like that. This product is so dated, it should have been removed long time ago without proper rework of FM, DM and avionics. We need whole new mig at this point. Best would be if someone went and did F-13 and MF.
