Razor5-1 Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Just saw a picture in my aircraft magazine of an A-10 with the pilot wearing the JHMCS! Amazing

Razor5-1 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 Sorry didn't realise it was already posted!
mvsgas Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 Not what I meant, just directing you to the photo.

Razor5-1 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 Cool, then it's open for discussion! :D I can't imagine much use in a mud mover though, I understand that it's only for A2A, the A-10C doesn't even carry the Aim-9X.
mvsgas Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 JHMCS is a sensor like any other. I pilot can look anywhere and make it a point of interest. He can look at a road and have the RADAR, TGP, etc move there. It is not used operationally in the A-10 AFAIK, still in testing. Additionally, as you can see in the photos/video thread, to some people it is very important that it is noted that it has a different acronym/abbreviation for it. I guess this is to be called HMIT To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Razor5-1 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Posted August 25, 2012 Well that's very interesting mvsgas thanks! good to know. I only associated it with off boresight A2A.
Pyroflash Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 No, it works like any other SOI, except it is attached to your head. The real question is though, will we be getting it in DCS? If you aim for the sky, you will never hit the ground.
PlainSight Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 I imagine HMCS for pilots is revolution like TrackIR for us, since you get the data and mark targets anywhere you look, not just through the hud or TGP. [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Eddie Posted August 25, 2012 Posted August 25, 2012 No, it works like any other SOI, except it is attached to your head. The real question is though, will we be getting it in DCS? Highly unlikely we'll see it for the A-10C, it would likely only come if ED ever decided to release an A-10C 2 with based on a newer avionics suite. Remember the A-10C we have at the moment is suite 3 and current real world aircraft are on suite 7, and JHMCS would probably be added to operational aircraft as part of a higher avionics suite. As to if we'll see it in another aircraft, it'll depend on what aircraft it is and what version of that aircrafts avionics is used.
Razor5-1 Posted August 26, 2012 Author Posted August 26, 2012 the A-10C doesn't even carry the Aim-9X. I am very wrong! just finished reading an article on the "razorbacks" A-10C and they can indeed employ the Aim-9X! Also got me thinking about bomb fuzing, airburst, delay etc. I don't believe it's implemented is it?

Also got me thinking about bomb fuzing, airburst, delay etc. I don't believe it's implemented is it? bomb fusing and AIM-9X isn't modeled. (Airburst fusing would be pointless since frag isn't modeled either.) Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
