ttaylor0024 Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Not for sure if this is an issue with non-MiG-21 aircraft or just a bug (haven't tried it on a friendly MiG-21), but IFF isn't working at all when pressed, aircraft was not locked, of course. Edited March 12, 2015 by Cobra847
Flagrum Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 Not for sure if this is an issue with non-MiG-21 aircraft or just a bug (haven't tried it on a friendly MiG-21), but IFF isn't working at all when pressed, aircraft was not locked, of course. The radar does not show "=" nor "-", the (inverted) "T" will not change at all?
ttaylor0024 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Posted December 1, 2014 The radar does not show "=" nor "-", the (inverted) "T" will not change at all? Correct, all I see is the inverted T. I may be doing something wrong, but I don't think so. Radar on, targets not locked, the IFF panel switches on as well as the IFF on the left next to the Guncam on

Sleksa Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 I've had similiar cases even with repetitive IFF toggles and the resetting of radar

zaelu Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 I flew with 2 friends in same mission and we set IFF's to same settings all three. One saw me as friendly all the time and I saw him back the same but the third saw the second as enemy all the time. I had no contact durring that mission with the 3rd friend so I couldn't test more... but we will do it again.

cquail Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 One of my other squadron members is having the same issue. When he first got the Mig the IFF system worked normally. Now he no longer gets a "=" or "-" all he sees is the T or inverted T as per normal radar mode. We've verified his cockpit settings and tried on repeated flights with no luck.
Xander Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I had the same issue last night in multiplayer. I was tracking a contact and it remained as an inverted T on the radar. I hesitated to fire and got myself shot down instead :)

I hesitated to fire and got myself shot down instead :) Just happened to me too, first time trying the 21 in MP, searched and it looks like this still a problem. We're tracking and fixing a bug related to this. Any update on this?

Justin Case Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I did the same thing a month or so after release. "They broke the IFF with the last patch!…oh look at this switch!" ;) http://www.masterarms.se A Swedish Combat Flight Simulator Community.

This kind of thing is very important because it is not included in the cold start tutorial, and it is already turned on for you in the air-to-air tutorials.

RAZBAM_ELMO Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 where is this switch located exactly, i use the english cockpit so im not sure its labeled the same in 1.5 release Ver.

Volantis Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 IIRC it's near the RWR power on switch. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] French Murage Pilot

RAZBAM_ELMO Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Maybe I missed that one in the manual. Thank you very much for the visual. Had an issue on the ACG jets last night where I had a fur ball in front of me and couldn't differentiate. Least to say that both sides were mad at dieing.

TAW_Impalor Posted July 27, 2016 Posted July 27, 2016 I too am confused. The manual mentions the two IFF switches but does not tell what they are doing. It tells to turn on only one of them (page 80): СРЗО SRZO "IFF" On RV35 At this point you are ready to taxi. So we seem to need to turn on both - one to see and one to be seen. Shame there are no key bindings for them. I have everything else automated with one flip of the switch. 12900KF@5.4, 32GB DDR4@4000cl14g1, 4090, M.2, W10 Pro, Warthog HOTAS, ButtKicker, Reverb G2/OpenXR

Shame there are no key bindings for them. I have everything else automated with one flip of the switch. Both switches (one near the RWR switch and the one on CB panel) are related to the IFF interrogation, both need to be switch on for your IFF to work. IFF in DCS is simulated at very basic level. The transponder doesn't need to be turned on in other to be identified by other planes. That's the case for all DCS modules.
NaCH Posted August 1, 2016 Posted August 1, 2016 IFF is working fine for me in MP. And yes.. you need to turn on the right switches, it is on the kick start up procedures of the manual.
