Esac_mirmidon Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Not at all. Su-25 has longer range antiradar missiles ( Kh-25MP and the Su-25T Kh-58 ) and ranges is life in SEAD missions. The speed of the Su and the Harrier are more or less equivalent, but the Sidearm is by no means comparable to the Kh series. On the other hand, the A-10 doesnt have any ARM, so the Harrier with the Sidearm, at least has something to throw over short Sams. " You must think in russian.."

DZShizzam Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Will this bird be more well suited for SEAD than the A-10C is? Is this kind of like the Bluefor equivalent of the Su-25? It will absolutely be more capable than the A-10C for SEAD since it actually has a missile that can home on radar signals. It will not be nearly as capable as the SU-25T. The AGM-122 the Harrier is getting is basically just good for suppressing short range SAM (SA-6/SA-8) sites and radar guided AAA. Something I think a lot of people here don't consider is that you don't need an AGM-88 to do proper SEAD, either, and stuff other than the technology that is equipped on the plane does matter. The Harrier is going to be significantly faster than the A-10C, and that will help tremendously with taking out radar sites. I can and have used terrain masking to kill well defended SA-11 sites in the A-10C in DCS, just using guns or rockets, even using Mavs. In fact the radar homing missiles like the AGM-122 and AGM-88 in real life aren't even reliable enough to get consistent hits. They are primarily used in self defense to get the radar operator to shut off the radar once they're fired at. I suppose what I'm talking about is DEAD more than SEAD, but similar concept. Take radars offline xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Right on, thanks for the quick answers guys. It looks like the Hornet will be my first opportunity to run a full on SEAD for myself on the blue side :thumbup: Now I just need to decide if it is even worth continuing to learn the Hog (I just started), or if I would be better served to just stop that and learn the Harrier instead and let the Hog rot on the sidelines.

Jester986 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 The Hawg is a great aircraft, don't give up on it. The Harrier is still a month out anyway and both aircraft will have their uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what does that mean? When will it be availabel for pre-purchase, or released to the public?

Ocelotunit Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Now I just need to decide if it is even worth continuing to learn the Hog (I just started), or if I would be better served to just stop that and learn the Harrier instead and let the Hog rot on the sidelines. I'm pretty sure there will be a bunch of transferable knowledge eg; Litening TGP, LGB operations, Maverick operations. Of course the way you go about using these thing will differ but the way the Hog flies and its loiter time means you don't have to rush to learn them. I say, continue learning the Hog, maybe jump in at the weapons end for the transferable knowledge. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDieing Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Why does everybody want to throw their money right away and spam refreshing the product site?
