microvax Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Isnt the TGP only used on the av8b+ ? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] *unexpected flight behaviour* Oh shiii*** ! What ? Why ? What is happening ?
Torso Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 I think I will just leave this here: ;) Just a few more loadouts samples: Just freakin awesome. Very eager for this one. Part of my Fabulous 5 dream module wish list items. Cannot wait to be able to scratch it off the want list and move it to the have list. Kudos on the progress and thank you for sharing. Now, faster! :smilewink:

Zeus67 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Isnt the TGP only used on the av8b+ ? Operationally that may be the case but both N/A and Plus can use it.

iLOVEwindmills Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Very impressive list on the armament, did not expect to see sidearm in there. With the E mav on there, I assume you are also making it yourself and it will be fine? Considering it was at one point in the game and had to be deleted.

iLOVEwindmills Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Oh cool, I thought it was out of the game alltogether.
Pocket Sized Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 The laser mav was removed for legal reasons related to the A-10C alone. Also, wow. That's a lot of firepower for such a small airframe! DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule. In order to utilize a system to your advantage, you must know how it works.
OStateBandit Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Operationally that may be the case but both N/A and Plus can use it. N/As do use them operationally. The LITENING pods add a boat load of capability beyond the onboard ARBS/DMT and NAVFLIR. Aside from the sensor capabilities of the pod, the LITENING is what allows the AV-8B to self-lase targets.
Tirak Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Out of curiosity, why no JDAM? Even without the Digitally Improved Triple Ejector Racks, it should still be able to carry them on the standard pylons. 1
Zeus67 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Out of curiosity, why no JDAM? Even without the Digitally Improved Triple Ejector Racks, it should still be able to carry them on the standard pylons. Someone on the team asked the same question and the reply is the same: This list shows the available weapons in DCS. So far JDAMs are not modeled in DCS. Depending on complexity we will see if it is feasible for us to model them and then we will update the weapons list accordingly.

The A-10C has GBU31 and GBU-38 which are JDAM's. Did Harrier use a different one?
Zeus67 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 The A-10C has GBU31 and GBU-38 which are JDAM's. Did Harrier use a different one? I wasn't aware of that. I checked, the GUB-31 is based on the MK-84 so that one is out. The AV-8B does not carry MK-84s. The GBU-38 is based on the MK-82 so that one will be included. Thanks for the help!

Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..
OStateBandit Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Hey Larry, do you know what that thing is? Cheers I'm not Larry, but that is the NAVFLIR. The lense on the nose is the ARBS (Angle Rate Bombing System), which is also known as the DMT (Dual Mode Tracker). Edited February 13, 2017 by OStateBandit 1

Thanks, I downloaded the manual, and it's very interesting. :) I'll spend some time reading it, the Harrier will make a big difference in DCS, I'm sure, it is an unique aircraft.
