If you really want, you can go to sensors and unbox PPLI, see what this will do. I'm unsure whether this will prevent PPLIs from displaying, or if it will prevent them from sharing tactical data. (which you don't want)
What are you fighting? In general respect the MAR, take an ATFLIR to look for launches, have .1 mach over the target, use RAID in TWS to quickly focus on a track for almost STT quality with auto scan centering. Threat environment? Types of opponents? own ship loadout? Sent from my moto g stylus 5G (2022) using Tapatalk
Where do you get that from? Makes no sense to me whatsoever. If you have an STT your're looking at a highly concentrated narrow beam, for argument's sake let's say it's 2 deg. A BVR-launched AIM-120 will loft and be nowhere near that beam until it's close to the target, where it would already be active. So it clearly doesn't work like that, and we know that (for the Hornet at least) MDL will be communicated via the sidelobes as well.
No way in hell an RWR, even a modern NATO model from our DCS era would pick up MDL. It just doesn't make sense, with the frequency agility, low power output, and the fact that data beamed to a missile would be nowhere near the LOS of the target.
Yes
If you want, but AUTO was the primary employment method for Hornets, even in a dive. Start your dive in, use the ball and chain to mark the target, then fly to the release cues. Sent from my moto g stylus 5G (2022) using Tapatalk
The CT12/3.7 is callsign and fuel state. Based off DCS naming conventions this is Colt 1-2 and 3.7 is his fuel state. (3700 lbs) For the BRAA, look at the compass rose. The target bearing is the heading you would need to turn to put them on your nose. This is an absolute bearing rather than relative.
Cage/uncage here is toggling EXP for some reason. It's clearly bugged as OSB 20 has a blank box indicated where a boxed "EXP" would be. As far as I know, the only cage/uncage function with GACQ should be the toggling of the gun funnel. And that is not in the sim.
No, the HARMs need an emitter to be at accurate. The HARM is going to a location, at an altitude where it can best see emitters within a 1 or 5nm (no source atm) radius of the reference target point. The new AARGMs (AGM-88E) have a GPS and improved INS to try to hit an emitter at its last known location.
