I finished the update on steam but my game won’t start anybody have the same problem. ?

HI all, @ED is the steam page from the F/A-18 correct,in term of weapons lists ? https://store.steampowered.com/app/411950/DCS_FA18C/ I wanted to ask about the mentioned weapons. Waffen: AGM-45A/B Shrike AGM-65E/F/G Maverick Walleye I/II ER/DL Mk-40 Destructor-Seemine Mk-63 Quickstrike-Seemine Mk-77 Feuerbombe Köder/Täuschkörper: GEN-X Are they still planned and correct ? Especially the "Walleye I/II ER/DL ". Are this diffenrent Versions of the bomb ? BR Fliegerkalle

Same problem for me also with max view distance in the options. Same was also reported here

Thx for the answer - but did you test it ? I am also sure that this worked in the past but not anymore - it stays all the time on high drag. No matter which fuze option I choose. BR Fliegerkalle

Hi all, if I fly alone A2G with jester how I can tell jester to switch the mk82 snakeeye from highdrag to lowdrag ?

Hi , I see the same problem, Maybe is it needed to post it in the bug section ?

Why not, I would prefer to release the PL-12 as a useable official weapon in DCS for the Jeff. The JF17 is also in use by China as „FC-1“ with pl 12 so why not have it in DCS.

The MP Server „Blueflag Persian Gulf“ has included the pl 12 and the sd 10 and I can see a huge better kill ratio with the pl12 it’s far better in my opinion.

Which one is better or what is the difference of these missile models.

Hi all , How is this done ? Is there a Jester command available ? Or is this only be possible with switching to the RIO seat ? thanks in advance for your help ! greets Fliegerkalle

Hi all , my question would be in the last open beta patch (13th April 2023) there was a point of 8 new liveries . where I can find them ? Any info which nations got them ? BR Fliegerkalle

Yeah I would instantly do and buy a FF Mig29 And I know many player which would also buy it. There is definitively a market for that. And the CW scenario is the best.

I have the same problem in handling an TWS lock - it cost a lot time to handle that , in a situation where you have no time if anybody has a better solution or can explain how use tws in fast/ way it would be nice to hear. @nickos86 - I can only give you the hint I try to use RWS with a LTWS lock. The procedure is fast for me and uncomplicated. Bring a target in your scan range - press NWS button to select a radar contact and your are fine. select in the radar data menu your „target memory time“ to 16s or 32s (upper right corner) to be sure that your target track is not deleted with width radar angles.

Hi ironmike, okay I understand - I asking only my self as a completely noob in military aviation. I am only a gamer which became interest in these topics because of your wonderful game / module DCS F14. But why are so different information in the www. At least from a US Aviation History museum I would expect valid informations regarding F14 and Aim54 . They also stated in their videos that the aim 54 was flying Mach 5 Sad to hear from gamer perspective that heatblur has different informations so that the mach5 info seems to be fake news.

Can this also be done in SP with jester ? What’s there the procedure?

Can you give some examples regarding your range, altitude and speed ? BR Kalle

Hi I wanted to ask is there a fix / adaption planned regarding the top speed of the aim 54 ? I don’t argument over the drag which occurs in low altitudes or the notch resistance, I believe in these points the development that we are close to the real ones. But I am still wonder about the high-speed in high altitudes. The missiles barely goes over Mach 3.5 even shot in altitudes of 40k and own speed of Mach 1.4. In several sources the missiles is stated as a Mach 5 missile. it would be nice to hear your thoughts about that. I am no experts regarding the fact of the aim 54 in real life ? Are these sources/ infos wrong or are there issues in DCS ?

Thx for you all responses - I tried it once again and it worked well - I don’t know what my fault was. But maybe to small offset angle or something with mfd gain - but I tried it again on Caucasus and PG and it worked well with your advices. thx to you all

Compared to previous patches in 2020/21 you can not see any terrain (like runway or difference between water and land) in map mode on best exp mode (DBS2? Or EXP2 - currently don‘t know the term) in AG radar right know. Back in 2021 the AG radar picture was more or less similar to that in the f18 and f16. In my last try to attack a airfield on the PG map. I was not able to recognize the airport because each building / unit object - create the same brick with no difference between buildings and large units - and no terrain info like water, field, rivers or runways.

Any update here ? We have end of 2022 and AG radar with EXP modes seems to be still bugged ?

Does the 802AKG and the 802AK work properly now? Or are these still bugged ?

What’s about flying with different wings sweep ? May it maybe better accelerate if I decrease the wing sweep manually in some way? Or is the best way to let it in Auto the whole time ?

@draconus I also saw this post but this was ask for the F14B. Is this also useable for the F14 A even with her different engines ? thanks for all your replies really interressting.

Hello. i still struggle a bit to speed up the A economically. So may you can write me your way. If I fly a CAP mission with 4-Aim54 , 2 AIm 7 , 2 Aim 9 and 2 tanks. i normally start and fly with full military ( to save fuel ) and go in level flight until Mach 0.6. Then I pitch 10degree and climb until 28K feet with Mach 0.6. If I want now to start an attack I accelerate with Full AB , but my problem is it cost dramatically much fuel to reach Mach 0.9 - 1.0 region. Any ideas how I can improve it or speed the A up - how you fly ? any chance to come to Mach 2 ? Or is this speed only with a lean plane reachable ? thanks for your reply greets fliegerkalle.

Hi it is may only a small issue with the livery , but i can not see the hog on the droptank - is this also seen Or not by other players? Sorry reporting this , but i want at least mentioned it BR Fliegerkalle
