akp Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 Like all modules the DCS MiG-21 has small discrepancies from the real life version for various reasons but RWR modelling is an important gameplay issue. A few posters have pointed out that according to the original English translated manual the RWR should still provide direction indication whilst the MiG is being locked on at more than 3-5km and the frequency of the beeps increases as the threat closes in. Perhaps the English manual is inaccurate. There's a Russian language SPO-10 technical manual that might shed more light on the RWR's functionality. Knowing the direction and rough distance of the threat whilst being locked on grants pilots more situational awareness that is sorely lacking in the MiG-21. It's that much easier to put a threat on your 3/9 line. I hope the devs will look into this problem as it has major gameplay implications.
