    TBH, 12nm seems a bit short for something that can go 30nm when launched from the ground

    That's only assuming your limit is kinematics, which need not be the case. Maybe the Tomcat's radar just needs a huge return to persuade the Hawk to look in the right direction. This stuff is why proper documentation is needed.

  2. I wonder how many people were around for the Tomcat release. Or the Mirage F1. Or the Viper (now that was a funny one - people got their shiny toy asap and they loved it right??? /s). Or pretty much any other highly anticipated module.

  3. The link to the Discord server is in the first post of the thread here: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/290302-community-a-4e-c-v22-october-2023/ as well as on the Github repository the thread points to: https://github.com/heclak/community-a4e-c?tab=readme-ov-file

     

    You need to create a Discord account to log in on whatever server, but that's it. If you don't want to install the app (I hate apps so I refuse to do so) you can just run it in your browser.

  4. Same, the radar is the most lacking feature of the module still, and it's particularly problematic for an aircraft that carries decent Fox 1s as opposed to e.g. a Fishbed or Tiger.

  5. It's easy to see where the issue is, and if this was a free mission fixing it would be trivial. Baron 1 has an advanced task to attack the player group, which defaults to true is overriding the RoE. I imagine this comes from having the attack order trigger between being on and off for the BFM sets later in the mission.

    edit: @BIGNEWY The issue is even worse. In mission 1 Baron will attack you immediately upon mission start rather than setting up the fight first, making the mission essentially unplayable. The same happens also in the defensive setup in Mission 2. I don't feel like testing every single mission, but as is the campaign is near unplayable because of this.

    Perhaps German ICE and Greek AUP had Harpoon but I don't think I've ever seen it mentioned for those.

    As far as I know, in Germany the anti-shipping mission was flown by either the F-104 or Tornado carring Kormoran missiles

  7. Eh the F-5 radar isn't exactly the most realistic representation in DCS, and even then it gets really mediocre at low altitude. If you want another comparison - for the Mig-21 it doesn't sound completely insane assuming you're at low altitude.

    Can you quote a source for that data?

    I can't track down a source but I have read Italian pilots saying that (I imagine at low-ish altitude because clutter?) the AIM-7 envelope was more limited by the radar range than the missile.
