SU-25T Jamming ?

[rld1]

Hi,

 

Does the ECM pod work (pod loaded of cource) on this AC? I press the "E" key & nothing that I can see indicates it operating.

 

Thanks,

Yes- the indicator light is on your right "nomexa" Large & green.

Thank you, don't know how I missed it.

That's only part of the jamming suite on the Su-25T.

 

Obviously, to have active radar jamming available the MPS-410 must be installed on your outermost pylons, and E activates them - as S77-Konkussion said, there's a lamp on the right side of the cockpit labeled "ПОМЕХА" which indicates an active ECM.

 

The second part is the active infrared jamming which acts like a rear-facing blowtorch, effectively flooding IR seekers so they cannot get a good lock. It's activated by pressing Shift-E - the lamp is labeled "ОЭП" (corrected thanks to Фрогфут's screenshot).

the lamp is labeled "ОЭМ", if memory serves.

where can i find this lamp?

That's Russian ergonomics style ;)

Because the internal cockpit layout is transferred from the original Su-25, where the Sukhogruz IR jammer didn't exist, and the only active ECM was the wing-slung SPS-141 - so you only needed a single lamp.

You want well organised and structured layout? Wait until you get in the black shark.
