Read about your interest in the mechanization for an air to ground variant for the R-60. Feel your pain in that I tried to get a similar conversation going about adding a seeker slew joystick for the OH-58D AHIP as what finally made the Kiowa Warrior compatible with the Air to Air escort mission for Apaches when MLMS became ATAS.
Got the post stripped from the forum and every subsequent message to which I replied with public data here denied as well.
These people are serious about anything related to tactics or operational use being 'not suitable for DCS', a tactical military sim. It would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad as these are the people repressing DCS development at every turn and with War Thunder in particular moving to advanced inertial-active missile defeat and MSI level sensor fusion, such backwards thinking is going to destroy the sim, if it hasn't already.
Anyway, I recalled coming across a post on the Secret Projects UK forum titled:
'molniya-vympel-r-60-aa-8-aphid-aam-variants'.
And noticed a few things regarding proximity vs. induction fusing and the use of various add-on features in subsequent Izdeliye product variants of the R-60 which included one mentioning an Ataka radio command link. You should look it up. The Aphid was a genuinely innovative design for it's time, as much a replacement for cannons as a competitor/complement to the R-13 and subsequent, 'dogfight', weapons and as such, it went through a lot of updates from enhanced digital autopilot to wider IFOV and OBS limits to cooling and target designation upgrades, allowing for faster handoff.
It's 5` IFOV in particular interested me as this is rather a wide squint for a seeker intended to reject IR expendables and yet, for a large diffuse target without mechanical IRCM, it would likely be a considerable aid, given only that you could command guide the missile to a distance (under EO control from the Hind optronics) to where that was the only dirt/pavement/burning building object in the FOV.
So... Launch on digital autopilot, steer a smooth trajectory to the point at which seeker lock-on is assured, handoff to the weapon and watch it slam into a contact vs. proximity fuse detonation in a cluttered ground environment?
Not saying I have your answer, but it might be worth looking into. Lots of genuinely more technically knowledgeable people on SPROJ as well, though they do not always open up honestly, which is understandable, given the subject matter.
Good Luck.

Better navigation features (read my explanation)
Varioss replied to LimePartician's topic in DCS: CH-47F
Those are already in game for long time, the NS430 can use them. Here a point in game and the corresponding in real life https://opennav.com/waypoint/RU/NIRGA. Unfortunatly I can't find anywhere what AIRAC cycle it uses so I assume it's outdated by many years.

Surprised no one made a wish list post for this variant yet so here it goes. The MF2000 is the ultimate variant of F1, which would make it on-par and even superior to the M2K we have in game. The upgrade program took place almost 20 years ago and since Moroccan army is looking to replace it's fleet soon with F-16 block 72/F-35 we could expect some more information/manuals about the plane to pop-up soon. This is not an suggestion to add right now but rather what we could get as a some kind of mid-life update after the modules comes out of EA. More information on the variant:https://www.timesaerospace.aero/news/defence/mirage-upgrade-augments-new-fighter-force

Did you ever try to make george hover in any combat load configuration + in a mountains? No matter how careful you are with the altitude changes he will pitch up too much when transiting from 40 tas to 0 tas, and in doing so he will put the heli in vrs.
-
Not sure what you are talking about, they work fine. Here you can see george going to hover mode, puts it in vrs and kills us. George can't VRS 2.trk

In the peak hours all the popular servers are full all the time and getting in is incredibly hard, we should have the option to just refresh the player count of currently selected server instead of having to refresh all the servers.

What are you even on about? This is not an competition. I assure you nobody cares that you can ARR. Why are you turning everything into a dick measuring contest to show how better you are then everybody else? Again, superiority complex much?
-
And some people are stuck in the past refusing to let go of outdated ways of thinking. shrug
-
Yes that's what I mean. Everybody should play like they want. I can feel a lot of servers will turn that option off and it won't change anything.
-
No it won't affect it. A engineer responsible for vulkan won't be assigned to do automatic ARR. A person responsible for the core mechanics is gonna do that. It's clear you have no idea how software development works. I sure hope it's gonna get implemented without the ability to block it so people like you will complain more.
-
When did I say I can't ARR? I support people that won't learn it and don't have the means to learn it. And yes I will call out people who's opinions are just plain wrong and limits other to what they themselves think is the "right way to do X".
-
No you still don't understand the core issue. We know how to learn ARR it's just some people don't have the time to put in or they can't even do that.
-
Well it's clear you are stuck in past century when nobody thought about accessibility. Why do you hate others so much as to limit what they can do? Why can't you just ignore this thread never turn the option on and live on?

It’s literally a game. It’s not important, you are larping. On what basis do you say that? Do you have data saying “only 0,5% of players play on keyboard?" Dcs allows it so why shouldn’t it be considered. Wow, and? It’s not real life it’s a video game, no differences between war thunder. There is a simulator mode and arcade mode and for some reason the users are not complying? It is a elitsm and I have no idea why you think it’s not… No wait you are from military it all makes sense kek, It’s always the military people complaining about giving everybody fair chance. Superiority complex much?
-
The skill you provided are actually useful real life skills not an skill in video game. Don't compare 2 different things. Most servers are like that already so it won't change anything.
