Vampyre Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) It is there. It is identified by the CCDMV label. Mavericks are identified by seeker type: AGM-65D == IRMV AGM-65E == LSRMV AGM-65K == CCDMV I'm fairly certain the Marines only ever used the AGM-65G with the 300lb blast frag warhead as their IIR Maverick. IIRC the anti-tank AGM-65D with the 125lb shaped charge warhead was USAF only. There is a possibility that they used the AGM-65F as well as the Navy had those in the inventory in the Harriers early years.

Schmidtfire Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Fantastic progress! I am a little bit more excited by the A-29B, but the Harrier will also be a day 1 buy for me :) Love the updates, keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyforDCS Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I keep being (pleasantly) surprised how much progress is being made on this module, and how open Razbam is with their fans and all of us here, on how development is progressing on this module. I must also say that that the community is for the most part very mature and appreciative of this type of "open" development. I hope other 3rd party developers are taking note of this! :) Current specs: Windows 10 Home 64bit, i5-9600K @ 3.7 Ghz, 32GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB Samsung EVO 860 M.2 SSD, GAINWARD RTX2060 6GB, Oculus Rift S, MS FFB2 Sidewinder + Warthog Throttle Quadrant, Saitek Pro rudder pedals.

Schmidtfire Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 From what I understand, cluster-bombs was by far the most common weapon used on the Harrier. Especially during the Gulf War. In British service the BL755 was very common and part of the standard load-out. I don't know about different american CBU variants, if they are compatible or not. What types of cluster-bombs can we expect to haul around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirscorpion Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 @Zeus67 Been doing some harrier research, and i am not sure if its prospective or what but i feel that the HUD glass on the pics you posted is smaller than the real one. You can see the top the glass in the picture is much shallower angle, an the base of the HUD glass is wider "compared with the data entry panel" by a small margin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-SUKZqHfU0 With amazing sound as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prowler111 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Well...we are depicting a late AV-8B NA, the kind that was fielded during OIF and OEF and by then precisicion guided weapons were employed..BUT the MK-20 is the main CBU used Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iLOVEwindmills Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 So this video was just posted on the DCS Reddit, noted the Av8 plus carrying TER with what looks like regular JDAM on one side and laser JDAM on the other? I hadn't seen multiple JDAM on a single pylon before, any clue how long they've had them and if the NA would have that same capability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are using the BRU-70/A DITER (Digital Improved Triple Ejector Rack). First used in combat January 2015. Everything I could find about it only mentions AV-8B aircraft, thus I guess all Marine Corps Harriers will be/were upgraded to use it. http://www.navair.navy.mil/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.NAVAIRNewsStory&id=5852 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% sure, but nearly every pic or vid i found seems that the class at the top looks at a shallow angle, and the HUD seems wider. Even on the UK GR variants. It very well might be a FOV or prospective issue. But its definitely noticeable. This is as close as a pic i can find VS Edited March 10, 2017 by sirscorpion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes please triple JDAM and LJDAM will be amazing capability indeed for Mplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmidtfire Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 The Av8b N/A has no radar, but does it have a data-link? Can we for example display friendlies and bandits, sent to us by AWACS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I has Link-16 so it can share data in regards to ground targets, no air-linking capabilities exist in the NA version.

frixon28 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Can any of you guys see yourself using the Harrier for SEAD/DEAD? I think it would be interesting to use it in that role with the sidearm and cbu load out against older SAM systems like the ones smaller countries and insurgents have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AV-8B N/A does have data link and in an emergency it can do air intercept with AWACS support. It also has IFF capability thanks to a built-in beacon antenna that can interrogate other aircraft similarly equipped or with compatible systems. But these features do not make the AV-8B N/A a fighter, just a very capable aircraft.

The only ARM is the Sidearm and the Harpoon requires a radar.

609_Relentov Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Regarding hovering, will there be a limit to how long you can hover (obviously with the exhaust vents rotated downward)? I was watching a documentary on the AV8B and it mentioned that it was equipped with a water tank(s) that supplied 90 seconds worth of water injection into the engine/hot vents to prevent overheating in a hover (e.g. for vertical landings). Will this be simulated or does the N/A version not have this hover restriction? Thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeus67 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 As promised: The sidewinders have been enabled. Boresight mode only at this time. But now the aircraft is fully Air-to-Air capable. These images are of different tests, but they show how the STRS page works.
