LithiumR Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 So I got the module and I love flying it. It is now my favorite plane but...... When I do an IFF interrogation sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. It sucks to go smoking through the mountains at mach 1.5 to catch up with and bandit, use IFF, and shoot down a friendly. It definitely works sometimes but not always. I'm putting the selector knob over to CONT and using the nosewheel button. I'm not sure that there is anything else to do? I use it before I lock anything up. Usually it will show a diamond in the V if friendly..... But sometimes there's no diamond so I lock and fire only to get kicked for TK. That sucks. Is IFF just not finished? Or am I doing something wrong?

QuiGon Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 (edited) I've never had a false contact with the Mirages IFF. It's 100% reliable for me, so I would say you're doing something wrong, although I can't say what, as all you said is correct and there isn't more to it. :dunno: Edited February 15, 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!

myHelljumper Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 We would need a track to see what you are doing, but IFF is 100% reliable. Be aware that when in PIC there will be no diamond in the V, but the there will be double bars on the side of the contact.

Freeroamer Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I've had nothing but issues with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrayen Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Not a single technical issue. Never once. Got issues, yes, when I was being idiot and skipped checklists / items. But apart from that, I would say that IFF is (artificially) much more reliable (100% !!) in DCS than it is IRL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Every now and then we have people asking if IFF interrogation is right ? So far no reproducible bug found. Mirage fanatic !

Jugdriver Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 The IFF works, the system is prone to user error. That said, there has been a bug in the past, I am surprised some of the old hands dont remember. JD AKA_MattE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
