It's not, and no it won't be. Besides, realize that this target might be a flare or a cloud.

Steve65 thanks for the tip on the Janes Book.

 

Shooting down "Tomahawk Cruise Missiles" from the Amazon blurb ... interesting mission idea.

Posted
Was just reading the book How to Fly and Fight in the MiG-29 which is one of the books by Jane's "at the controls" series and found an interesting quote in the section about Close Combat.this a direct quote from the book "in a fast moving dogfight,many MiG-29 pilots fly with the missile trigger depressed,so that if the HMS or IRST locks onto a target as it flashes past,the missile will lock on and fire automatically." Is this modeled in the DCS FC3 MiG-29?if it is not ,will it be with the new MiG-29 PFM coming out?

 

Actually you can do that if you have a Saitek Joystick and you set an advance programming entry with the Saitek software. The idea is awesome and that work perfectly.

The new pit probably doesn't go with the old 3D model, so I don't think there is gonna be any pit until the new model is finished too.

My god, what a horrible idea.

 

If it's true what the book say's and a lot of MIG-29 pilots do that, how can it be a horrible idea? Offcourse what GGTharos happens.. But if many 29 pilots do that why should that not be included. If this is realistic than it should be in this sim that claims it wants everything done as realistic as possible. Even if it has some down falls.

Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.

Since the cockpit is apperently completed im guessing (Hoping) that we will see it as a part of the DCS 1.5 Release (Open beta) in September?

I'm really interested in that too, can someone from the dev or testers team confirm will the new pit will be available with DCS 1.5 or not.

Su-33 PFM is first before Mig-29.

the only one of those i dont think i will get is the Typhoon.

 

The Mirages and the F18 are guaranteed purchases but im not sure about the F-14 and Super hornet and i will probably pass on the Typhoon.

Being french I wiould buy any mirage but to be honest I will buy the first Mirage out and pass the second, too much modules. Same for F-18E and F-18C Ill buy the first hornet out.

in my opinion, they'll release su-33 at the same time with f-18 because they both have carrier operations which is wip now.

 

I guess,there is more way to go for mig-29 release

Posted

well the Su-33 is still just dumb unguided bombs.

 

They could maby add the abillity to use Anti-ship missiles.

 

but its not a "real" multirole.

 

 

The only real advantage over the Mig-29 if using it in a Multi-Role Mode is the much larger loadout.

 

Meaning you can carry more air-Ground ordnance while still maintaining some Air-Air weapons.

Yup and MP will be even more of a one-sided slaughter than it already is. :(
