DCS: F/A-18C Hornet - Case III Radio Communications First Look (WIP) This is a first-look, work-in-progress video at the Case III radio communications that will be part of the DCS: Nimitz-class Aircraft carrier module. There are a few items we are still improving and adjusting, but this provides an understanding of the level of detail planned for these communications.

We are aware of the issues and it's being worked on this weekend. Thanks

This is correct based on available information. All search/acquisition radars are simply displayed as "S". Thanks

That is not an accurate statement. It will only requirement an alignment if the weapon type is changed, not switching stations. Thanks

Hey everyone, First, we’d like to apologize about the confusion regarding MSI inclusion for this last Open Beta update. We had a mild case of left hand not talking to right hand given the time zone differences, language, and needed internal checks. These have since been rectified. The team is working over the weekend to get MSI into a potential hot fix early next week. The silver lining is that it gave us time to complete MSI with correct symbology for only-ownship detection (just brick) vs. donor contact (HAFU)… please see attached. Thanks, Wags

We will later add L (left) and R (right) STA options on the SMS. Thanks

Can’t view track right now, but make sure TOO or PB is selected, not set to OFF

DCS: F/A-18C Hornet - Multi-Target Mission Attacks (JDAM / JSOW) In the open beta this week we changed/improved the functionality to conduct multiple attacks using the JDAM and JSOW. You can now set targeting for each weapon and assign the weapons to a single mission (MSN) if you wish. This allows you to attack multiple targets without having to change Pre-Planned missions. This video is a quick instruction of how to do this. Thanks

Correct Kazius. In fact, this sneaked in earlier than I expected. I'll create a video of muti-target missions (MSN) this weekend. Thanks

We are looking into why the MSI for LTWS was not merged into the OB today. Thanks

Simply the test team wanted more time to test it and decided to delay it a bit. This happened after my earlier statement. As for MSI, we are looking into it now. We are unclear why it was not integrated. Thanks

Yes, and if I remember correctly, most often used for weapons school classes in regards to air-to-air. Thanks

Yes, a new AGM-88 HARM model was added, and a new AGM-154A/C JSOW model will be coming soon (already done and in internal build). Thanks

A loft shot requires a known range, to which SP and TOO do not provide. Only PB mode has a known target range. Thanks

HARM loft is a function of PB mode, which is coming later. Thanks

Partly true. While we will be happy to talk about upcoming features, we may need to hold back on our best projected release dates for versions. These are always our best estimates, but they do not take into account stubborn bugs that need to get worked out. While most clients get this, a vocal minority don't and they can get rather abrasive. Thanks

No, the two are not related. Thanks

It is still in work. While it is working well for some, it is not working well for others. We are trying to get to the bottom of this inconsistency. Thanks

Hey everyone, We are still working on a number of blocking bugs for the next Open Beta and that we need to resolve them before release. We don't have a specific day or time, but the team is working very hard to have the Open Beta cleaned up for a release as soon as possible. When we know more, myself or Nineline will be sure to let you know. Thanks

Already fixed for the next update. Thanks

That is old text that has since been updated. Thanks

DCS: F/A-18C Hornet - Upcoming AGM-154A JSOW, MSI for LTWS, and PRECISE Mode THIS IS REGARDING THE NEXT OPEN BETA that will feature the AGM-154A JSOW, Multi-Sensor Integration (MSI) for Latent Track While Scan (LTWS) mode, and an explanation of HSI PRECISE coordinate entry that is currently available. Other Hornet items in work include the Litening targeting pod, Harpoon anti-ship mode, INS and GPS full simulation and alignment, dynamic launch zones for JDAM and JSOW, and initial work on the air-to-ground radar. Thanks

We don't know yet. In testing the new OB we found some blocking bugs that we need to squash first. The team has been busy on this matter all day. We'll still try to release the OB today, but it might have to be pushed back a bit depending on the state of the OB. Thanks
