I didn't precise I used type 2 cause I used it for my first test, si I supposed it was obvious, my bad . Yeah, should have been the same, but my friend didn't even noticed I was jamming. I haven't touch DCS for 2 weeks, and won't for 2 more weeks, then I'll reconduct more trials (against IA and friends), to confirm.

I have to disagree, SPJ is usefull against other tracking mode : if you read my last post, it jammed perfectly F-18 TWS radar...but it seems it is useless against F-16...

New test, it seems that the friend manage to lock with HOJ, not in normal mode. After the update, jammer work so well he didn,t manage to fire a good AIM-120 over 10Nm. We try then F-16...and here, our jammer is absolutly useless : from 60NM at least, he manage to have a good monitoring (TWS), and launch a good missile, without any problem.

I would add that it seems missile still ignoring cruise altitude setting. In april 2024, ED team closed the topic, answering it was reporting for investigation...still not repaired.

Yeap, I was type 2 jamming. well, I asked question to my friends at this moment, and his answers sounds like he can't see ECM on his radar, but I'll conduct more trials with IA and more experienced F-18 pilots to confirm.

Hi guys ! I just made a training with some friends who have F-18, and I've been surprised that the SPJ was useless ! I remember that, before, F-18 could not lock me above 28Nm when type 2 jamming, and now they were not even disturbed at 80Nm ! Has the SPJ been nerfed ?

same problem for a friend and me.

same problem for a friend and me. Adding, some alarm sounds are playing randomly and cycling...

same issue for my squadron and I...a real problem for a jet that only have ADF/TACAN to help navigation !!

Hi ! I just try a fly on BF server, after a long pause with the JF-17, and I had a bad surprise : a F-15 was in front of me, his jammer was able too disrupt me, but mine not ! (I was hard locked) I finally manage to lock something near 20Nm... I remember flights where F-18 was not able to lock me over 26Nm with SPJ on (Type 2 forward), and it is pretty useless against a F-15 ? Is F-15 that good or did the SPJ been "adjust" ?

Bonjour à tous ! Je suis un passionné du F-5, et je cherche des personnes avec qui voler, donc si vous êtes intéressés (ou connaissez un groupe), faîtes moi signe !!

Yes, a fuel probe would be nice, but a little improvement of weaponery (with A/G missiles) would be good ^_^. A-10 and KA-50 had some little add-on to improve graphics and sensor/weapon system, I wish we have the same

Sometimes, it happens that, after working correctly, vikhr decide to be dumb : after fiing, they go down, to crash on the roof. I checked that my laser is on, I reset shkval, I take care of the laser countdown, nothing change. Tonight, I fired and rearm several time without problem, after my last rearming, I shot 2 vikhr on 2 different target, but at the third one, I had problem. Impossible to fix it, except by changing of plane. And it is not the first time it happens...

well, the MIG 21 is not my thing... I think I'll try a M 2000...(not russian, but I like it too;))

anti-radar missile from the Su 25 (Kh58 and 25). Then I tried other weapon (like laser guided missile)...same effect.

ho...I see. well, I think I'll have to continue with FCS3...:(

Dear DCS staff, I see that there is lots of release for modern american aircraft (and the french M2000), but our Su25/27/33 are still FCS3 !! I really wish we have some clickable russian modern aircraft, I think they have their fans !! best regards, Xavier

Dear staff, I tried to practice a ship attack, to test their defenses, but I was surprised to see that they don't try to destroy my missiles ! (even with excellent level, and allert status = RED) I asked a friend, telling me to search the option "engage air weapons", but I only find it on ground units, not ships, could you hel me ? Best regards, Xavier
