You mean the thing they did implement on the Viper?:

As far as I know, HARM TOO in the Hornet is currently simplified and incorrect. But as said above, if you mount the HTS pod on the Viper, it'll allow you to deploy HARMs in a similar way to the Hornet's TOO mode, by using the HAD page on the MFDs.

Looks like the regional price decrease isn't enabled for the Apache then, as 1165,76 TRY is pretty spot on with the currency exchange rate. (The 565,99TRY you mentioned is actually 30 USD, so it's significantly cheaper than what we have to pay)

I didn't say it couldn't, I said it didn't. So still not carried by the CE. Either way, I'm happy we're getting it - But to say something was missing from the Spanish F1 CE's inventory (which is what I replied to), is just wrong.

Looking forward to it! Really enjoyed OCN, but my favourite thing to do in DCS is Weaseling with the Viper.

But the aircraft in DCS is a Spanish F1 CE, which did not carry the S530F.

The pilot does not own the multi million dollar aircraft. Often times there'll be a reserve jet and pilot to replace any jet that has issues

I think the increased risk of losing the crew and the jet while dropping ordinance with a broken gear door is a show stopper....

Thanks for the detailed answers!

The F-5 doesn't use the M61 Vulcan cannon though, nor does it have the same sparks as the Hornet, so I don't see how it is relevant to my question. Let me restate the question(s) clearly: Why do the sparks appear when you fire the M61 Vulcan on the F/A-18C Hornet? Do other jets with the M61 Vulcan also have these sparks when firing the gun? If not, then why not?

Love the new effect! Although I'm curious, I've only seen footage from Hornets having these sparks. I get that it's obviously going to be more visible on the Hornet since the gun is right in front of you, but do other jets with the Vulcan cannon also produce these sparks? If not, then what causes it on the Hornet? Shorter barrel?

I think it's a weird bot. Look at the other 3 posts they made, they're all off topic and/or reviving old threads.

Those don't include all weapons.

What I usually do is simply roll in for an attack run and at the point where I would want to drop/fire a weapon, I put the game in active pause. I then release/fire the weapon and after it has impacted, I adjust the mrads so that the reticle is over the crater/impact point of the weapon. I then write those parameters down and use those from then onwards.

I'm getting clutter while in the middle of an empty Black Sea, don't think I should be getting any radar returns at all.

But RAZBAM is making a USAF Strike Eagle, so we will only get weapons used by the USAF. Two weeksTM isn't late?

I just had a very similar experience. Well past midnight, probably should've gone to bed already. Flew the two best approaches of my life, along with the sweatiest palms of my life. I had to step out for a smoke after the second missed approach! Then I figured it would just be a chill landing on a long runway, but boy was I wrong! I nailed it though and proceeded to blind the F out of the poor guy driving the truck. Really the only negative feedback I have is that the campaign should come with a six-pack of beer for in the O-club after the mission! Massive thanks BD and crew!

I don't know why people can't wrap their heads around the fact that they have bought the full product at a discount, it's just not released yet.

They charge (a reduced price) for the full product, while giving you early access to it. They don't charge you for the Early Access to then not give you the full release product.

I think this is indeed the case. In real life you wouldn't be able to zoom in on the IHADSS like OP does in the screenshots anyway either.

Had this happen a bunch of times in multiplayer today, figured I'd reproduce it in SP for a short(ish) track. Didn't quite get the same bug (I also had this one before in MP), but I assume they're related. After rearm, HTS worked fine, but the HARM itself was broken. Hand-off did not work, neither was I able to pick up the SA-3 in HAS mode. Steps followed; Load mission > rearm/refuel > start up the jet > attack an SA-3 site > fly back and rearm > attack second SA-3 site, at this point the bug occured.

Not sure how this makes sense / what the logic here is. Both the Apache and the Hind have been exported to other nation's militaries. Only ~250 more Hinds than Apaches have been built. Then you mention operating manuals and pilot experience; the lack of Russian high fidelity models available for DCS makes me think the Apache development would be easier than that of the Hind.

Maybe some misalignment between steam and standalone updates then, as the one I have in that folder was last updated on 25th of November 2019.

How do you get it to work? I can't seem to figure it out.

Yes, that file gets updated but the actual manual isn't. It's still the manual from 25th of November, which is outdated now as lots of features have been added since.
