SPS Jammer Pod unusable.

Recommended Posts

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.

Correct, the jammer on the MiG currently does not work against AI and player controlled aircraft. Neither does it work against SAM systems.

I fear the way how jammers are currently implemented in DCS World, they still will be just dead weight even after an update.

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.

You don't want it to work?

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.

+1 Will it be implemented?

Ok... Come now... No dev response to any thread about this after all this time? Cobra or someone at LNS, can you please at least acknowledge one of the several threads about this and let us know if it will ever be done???!!!

 

I love LNS and there products, and look forward to the Viggen, but the handeling of this has been a bit off, no? Acknowledgement would be nice at least

The jammer pod has worked properly in various versions.

In some it does not work.

 

We are investigating.
