Hazzerboraco Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 Yes, I know it has been asked before. :music_whistling: Does the Deltrola unit (or the IFF, for that matter...) function in the P-51D or the TF-51D? When I was looking around the cockpit, I was able to click on the switches on both these units. Thanks!:smilewink: :matrix: :joystick: ....... BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM ....... :megalol:
saburo_cz Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 Detrola, like IFF and AN/ARA8 radio homing unit, is not implemented in DCS World. unfortunately F6F P-51D | P-47D | F4U-1D | Mosquito FB Mk VI | Spitfire | Fw 190D | Fw 190A | Bf 109K | WWII Assets Pack Normandy 2 | The Channel | Sinai | Syria | PG | NTTR | South Atlantic F-4E | F-14A/B | F/A-18 | F-86 | F-16C | A-10C | FC-3 | CA | SC |
Hazzerboraco Posted February 7, 2018 Author Posted February 7, 2018 Would it be possible to implement these functions using a mod? :matrix: :joystick: ....... BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM ....... :megalol:
QuiGon Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Would it be possible to implement these functions using a mod? Actual IFF is not implemented in DCS in general, regardless of aircraft type. IFF in DCS works on an entirely game based level, where the game checks the coalition of the aircraft to return an IFF response. It doesn't matter if the aircraft has it's IFF unit activated or not, or if it even has a IFF unit. Edited February 7, 2018 by QuiGon Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
saburo_cz Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 It would be nice to have these simulated, but... Detrola, for its proper function you need beacons and they were only placed in the USA in 30-40. There is not that map in DCS W or plan fot it. IFF needs radars, alied WWII radars, and they are not on the actual list... AN/ARA 8 needs ground VHF transmiters (beacons), or B-29 with these. It was used only in Pacific during spring - summer 45. No plans for that area for DCS W, or that equipnent.

Could a mod that simulated a vhf transmitter work, or detrola beacons? :matrix: :joystick: ....... BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM ....... :megalol:
saburo_cz Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 DCS P-51D Flight Manual is saying: The AN/ARA-8 ... is not operational in DCS P-51D. The same is for Detrola (and IFF device). You can "click" on controls of these control boxes, but with no any effect. I have no idea about modding.

Hazzerboraco Posted February 7, 2018 Author Posted February 7, 2018 Neither, otherwise I would attempt it. :matrix: :joystick: ....... BOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM ....... :megalol:
