Lithion Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 AFAIK they said to want to do the HARM first, and AG radar as one of the last items because it really isn't used anymore.

Sarge55 Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Ground radar and ATFLIR together would be preferred. IMHO. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7 10700K OC 5.1GHZ / 500GB SSD & 1TB M:2 & 4TB HDD / MSI Gaming MB / GTX 1080 / 32GB RAM / Win 10 / TrackIR 4 Pro / CH Pedals / TM Warthog

probad Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Actually the one who said that was an f18c pilot. Cant remember where. that is what i recall as well somewhere in this forum like 2 months ago or so but im not spending my time digging it up
Teetwo Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 I too would like to see the AG radar soon than later, not just because of the Hornet, but for all the other modules that will need that technology too.
FistofZen Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Ground radar doesn't belong in the top 5 things to be implemented after EA. Simply because the ATFLIR will be more reliable for finding targets than the radar. Give us HARM first, from the weapons. Am I special?
smnwrx Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 The problem with the atflir is it’s basically useless in weather. One of the coolest uses I heard of the ground radar in the hornet was to compensate for the lack of ILS. Basically the pilot designates the end of the runway using the radar, then flies runway heading and 3 degree glide slope off the designation through the weather.

Probably I missed that “top 5 things to be implemented after EA” published by the dev team. Without AG radar, this is no go for me, it isn’t F/A-18 Hornet, it’s just F-18. Mirage fanatic !

Dejjvid Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 Lols, AG Radar isn’t used when doing CAS. But for a lot of other mission, searching for movers looking through a straw isn’t your best bet. The AG radar will be used a lot in most DCS missions. We are only a small, small portion of the community that use RL CAS tactics. i7 8700K | GTX 1080 Ti | 32GB RAM | 500GB M.2 SSD | TIR5 w/ Trackclip Pro | TM Hotas Warthog | Saitek Pro Flight Rudder [sigpic]http://www.132virtualwing.org[/sigpic]
Cytt0rak Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 I'm guessing that we will need AG Radar to employ those anti-shipping missiles. I don't really see AG Radar something useless...
