Toybasher Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 As of right now, the SPS Jamming Pod is completely broken. It does not auto-release Chaff or Flares, and the lock on light is not coming on when I'm being locked with radar. I am not sure if the jammer function works, but considering the state it is in now, I doubt it. (Have not actually tested in mutiplayer. I know AI mig's can use the SPS to jam you, though. Can it be fixed and made functional in a later update? It's sort of important as the radar jamming would make the mig a bit better against radar guided missiles. Right now it's nothing but dead weight that can hold extra chaff/flares for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harle Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Right. I confirm. The jamming doesn't work whatsoever in multiplayer. Why is this allowed? Edited June 15, 2015 by Harle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, the jammer on the MiG currently does not work against AI and player controlled aircraft. Neither does it work against SAM systems. Can it be fixed and made functional in a later update? It's sort of important as the radar jamming would make the mig a bit better against radar guided missiles. Right now it's nothing but dead weight that can hold extra chaff/flares for you. I fear the way how jammers are currently implemented in DCS World, they still will be just dead weight even after an update.

Harle Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) I don't get it. Why not make them work the same generic way as in f-15 or su-27? Cobra, say something! You've never commented on that jammer pod. Edited May 21, 2015 by Harle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostie Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Going against fighters you're probably better off not using a jammer, the MiG is so small that before you can get picked up on radar you're more likely to give away your position or attract unwanted attention rather than stay hidden away. DCS jammers do nothing to deter missiles at the range they are fired.

Toybasher Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 Any dev updates on this? In hindsight it's not a big game breaker, (You're trading in a fuel tank, which is important since the mig is a gas guzzler.) but there's one campaign mission which involves using a jammer on a sam site, and obviously it does not work right now.
