Slipp Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 If the version developed cannot guide DBU bombs by itself, how we will be able to use the GBU in DCS? Adding a laser team in the ground? Or a buddy laser plane? A-10C can buddy lase and, IIRC, JTAC can also lase for GBU's. The question is which plane will we use as a buddy laser? A-10 can't keep up with a fast jet.
joey45 Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 A-10c can loiter until the M2Ks get into the area. A10s lase while the Mirages drop. They don't have to keep up with them. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

A-10 would need a considerable head start. :megalol: Probably best to just use an AI fast jet to buddy lase until we get a flyable fast jet to buddy lase. :)
Stratos Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 I don't mind using another AI Mirage 2000 or even a JTAC on the ground, but please let us use those GBU!! I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
Valium Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 I don't mind using another AI Mirage 2000 or even a JTAC on the ground, but please let us use those GBU!! But Mirage 2000C can't use GBU just 2000D and Mirage 2000-5 Mk2 which was offered to other countries. Click here to see more pictures of Polish Air Force! Check also my album.
Slipp Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 But Mirage 2000C can't use GBU just 2000D and Mirage 2000-5 Mk2 which was offered to other countries. It can, according to the developers. It just can't designate GBU's by itself.
Nooch Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Mirage 2000-C carrying a gbu is like an A-10 carrying an AIM-120. You'll never see such a thing in real life. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

That's why I wrote Mirage 2000C can't take GBU, just D and Mirage 2000-5 Mk.2 versions. Don't know how it looks with N version. I don't know what they're talking about.

VincentLaw Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Equipping the GBU may be for representing the capabilities of some of the export variants. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
ThorBrasil Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 as that will be released the GBU-12 at the Mirage 2000c? |Motherboard|: Asus TUF Gaming X570-PLUS, |WaterCooler|: Corsair H115i Pro, |CPU|: AMD Ryzen 7 3800X, |RAM|: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB 3200MHz DDR4, |SSD|: Kingston A2000 500GB M.2 NVMe, |SSD|: Kingston 2.5´ 480GB UV400 SATA III, |SSHD|: Seagate Híbrido 2TB 7200RPM SATA III, |GPU|: MSI Gaming 980Ti, |Monitor|: LG UltraWide 34UM68, |Joystick 1|: Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog, |Joystick 2|: T.Flight Rudder Pedals, |Head Motion|: TrackIr 5.

I don't know what they're talking about. Mirage 2000-C carrying a gbu is like an A-10 carrying an AIM-120. You'll never see such a thing in real life. We are talking about this: The real aircraft in which our model is based has RDI radar, carries Magic II and Super 530, Air to Ground ordnance, can truck LGBs but cannot carry the targeting pod, has internal radar jammer. It also can fire the AS-37 ARMAT and the AM-39 EXOCET.
mattebubben Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 the AS-37 would it be able to use that on itsown or dose it need somone else to designate. Would be awsome to use the mirage for Sead =>
Valium Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 We are talking about this: It's a kind of surprise to me. I've never seen any photos of this configuration, that's why I thought it was impossible. So Mirage 2000C can take them and use them but target must be marked by other plane or something else, right?

Zakatak Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) According to the wiki, the AS-37 can only detect radiation on a very narrow range which has to be set on the ground. Meaning that if you set it up to detect Sa-2's, it wouldn't pick up Sa-6. This seems pretty difficult to implement. Are you going to bother? Edit: sorry, that's for the Martel version. I can't find anything on the ARMAT, it seems very classified. Edited February 16, 2015 by Zakatak
Zeus67 Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 I cannot tell the specifics because I don't have my notes with me, but yes, the Mirage 2000C with the RDY radar can fire both AS-37 and AM-39 without external help. Unfortunately the C does not have the wiring to use a laser designator pod so all it can do is truck the bombs while somebody else paint them.

mattebubben Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 awsome =) will be awsome to have a fast sead aircraft. Flying at low alt toward the target area pop up fire ur weapons then Burn away. And also being able to defend urself =). I think this might be 1 of the major Bonuses for the Mirage 2000c over the F-15/Su-27s in dc.
Valium Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 I'm waiting for 3 planes : Mirage 2000C, EF-2000 and Super Bug ( by Coretex but the project is on hold ). EDIT: And for F-15E by RAZBAM of course, they stopped that project about 2 years ago. Click here to see more pictures of Polish Air Force! Check also my album.
Manuel_108 Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 I believe in the F-A-18C. I am certain that ED will get it right and I rather fly the older variant but realistically than the F-A-18D with a less accurate FM and system fidelity. I might be wrong though and Coretex really delivers one helluva plane.
Stratos Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Looking forward to this plane. Can't wait guys! I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
SkateZilla Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I believe in the F-A-18C. I am certain that ED will get it right and I rather fly the older variant but realistically than the F-A-18D with a less accurate FM and system fidelity. I might be wrong though and Coretex really delivers one helluva plane. F/A-18D is the two seat version of the F/A-18C. CoreTex is developing the F-18E Windows 10 Pro, Ryzen 2700X @ 4.6Ghz, 32GB DDR4-3200 GSkill (F4-3200C16D-16GTZR x2), ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, XFX RX6800XT Merc 310 (RX-68XTALFD9) 3x ASUS VS248HP + Oculus HMD, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS + MFDs
Manuel_108 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Excuse me, of course I meant the -E version. :doh: Pardon any confusion I might have caused.
Valium Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) You rather wanted to say - F/A-18E, not F-18C or F-18E. Edited February 19, 2015 by Valium Click here to see more pictures of Polish Air Force! Check also my album.
Zeus67 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Been working on the DCS Mirage 2000C Right now it can fire the cannons and the SNEB rockets. At this time the gunsight for both cannon and rockets are deemed finished. It has two settings: dynamic and fixed. With dynamic, the sight moves around the HUD calculating the bullet/rocket impact point based on aircraft speed, attitude, etc. On fixed, it just has a basic bullet drop calculation based on range. The sight range can be changed between 700 to 4000 meters. No video at this time, perhaps on Sunday.
