Haven't tried. They should pop up on F10. I know they provide target info for friendly naval forces to conduct ASuW engagement data.
-
AWACS do detect ships in the game you just can't get any position updates sent via radio.
-
On the CBU-97, and CBU-105 they are alle there, and each skeet is animated being ejected and seeking from the submunition, hell the entire deployment sequence is animated correctly from split, to the rocket ignition and spinup to skeet release, even selfdestruction of skeet not finding targets are there.

The animation yes, but you never have 40 EFPs in DCS actually firing on vehicles.
I am fairly certain I count more than 40 submunition explosions going off, If the skeet does not detect a target under it's footprint it will detonate on contact with the ground (At least from what data I have read on the CBU-97, and it is far from certain all skeets will detect targets, even under the most ideal circumstances.

The real-life CBU-97/105 puts out a lot more EFPs (explosively formed projectiles) than what DCS simulates. The bomb dispenses 10 submunitions as does the DCS version, but each of those 10 submunitions deploys 4 individual EFP "skeets" which individually seek out and attack targets.
So even though the DCS CBU97/105 only deploys 25% the number of EFPs compared to the real-life counterpart, each of those simulated submunitions only attacks actual DCS units that are still alive. Whereas the real-life skeets would probably double- or triple-tap a lot of vehicles in the effects zone, along with other false targets. So I think within the limits of DCS, it's a fairly good emulation of the CBU-97/105 SFW weapon effects, in lieu of a true simulation.
The CBU-97 in DCS deploys the 10 submunitions, and it does then eject the four skeets per submunition as it should, it is animated nicely as well.

If the OHP is not inactive you will never get inside your own weapons envelope of the frigate, S-24 would probably be the most damaging weapon, bombs as well, but good luck getting into position, the OHP had SM-1 (SM-2 in DCS) 76mm gun, 20mm Phalanx and finally 12,7mm guns, also warships rarely sail alone.

Flaps must have gotten damaged, overspeed probably. Been there done that.
-
That was quite the raw delightful gem of an interview.
Absolutely the best so far.
-
Definitely not the same Warhead as the SLAM have a 488 pond warhead, HARM a 143 pound fragmentation warhead.
SLAM is for priority targets, the other for rendering radars inoperable, completely different usage and warhead selection.

In the logbook, under USN squadrons you have a VF-71 Bedevillers that shouf be VF-74.
Nitpicky, but that is just me

Cockpit is the same, but you have to configure controls for the CW version seperately, they are two different entities in the sim. (I think due to FM differences)
-
As stated, that is a travelpod, theya re actually available for the A-10C in DSC, anf they are used for amongst other things lobster runs.
-
You should never carry Pallets alone on the rear tunnel points, There is several hard rules to loadout, to carry pallets in the tunnel you need to have all four, or just the front two mounted.
-
They are all removeable except the wingtip rails. give the groundcrew time to get it done if you are doing it after entering the cockpit
-
Here is a CBU-97 drop, 2000ft level, CCIP 450 kts NSTL fuzing. no issues what so ever.
-
Try actually going into the DED and set laser code to 1688. I do and mine hits everytime unless I do something silly such as mask the pod, or lase to late.
-
I drop CBU-97 from 1000ft or less, and 450kts or more, that way you get a very long dispersal pattern
-
Upper wing surface has no national insignia, on the other hand there is a two for one on the underside.

Another one from RDAF, this time a one hours interview (english subtitles are available in settings) regarding a controlled ejection, actual radio audio is included in small vignettes.

Royal Danish Air Force over Libya

I have to agree, went from CV1 to S, clarity definitely improved, and as Panther stated, the band and adjustment is just better.
-
On the CBU-87/97 US Navy and US Marine Corps do not use those bombs, they are US Air Force weapons, so kinda simple reason why that is not used on the F-18
-
The Pyotr Velikiy, uses the SA-N-6 Grumble, not the SA-10.
..
And SA-N-6 Grumble is the NATO codename for... Fort M F using the 5V55 missile, the F i Fort M F Basically designates flota or fleet version of the missile
-
A Danish f-16 had a mig-29 kill with a slammer I think that same day,and once the BUFFs were cleared in a US 16 got one of their last 29s with a 120, which was right around the same time of that infamous 16 SAM hit. No idea if either were TWS
No danish F-16 has ever done any air to air in anger, plenty of mud moving but no launches of AIM-120 so please ad some documentation for that one
Clarification regarding external stores.
in DCS: F-35A
Posted
FAQ states that the AIM-9X will be carried and that is external stores only on the -35, so that should kinda hint that there will be external stores.
