redeagleGER Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Ok Cali u owe me an explenation. Why the hell do u shoot from distance of 50clicks (to the closest bandit) when u KNOW eagle and cobra are there. If it would be a ballistic aim120 ok but this is unnessecary! :chair: Anyway what is the point calculation now? Blue won probably? :( [sIGPIC]http://img114.imageshack.us/img114/5156/sig1ck8.jpg[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudd Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Anyway what is the point calculation now? Blue won probably? :( There is no point in speculating. I will post the results as soon as I have them calculated. S! The code is probaly in Russian anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S77th-GOYA Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Redeagle I just looked at the track and I was heading 297 and the 120 turns to 331 which was where you were at. I had the bandit lock at 297 and when it came off the rail it headed straight towards 331 (strange, I have the track on our forums, it's the view from inside my cockpit) So why did the missile turn to 331, I don't know, but I know I was heading 297 and had a bandit locked. The missile heading to 331 isn't strange at all because that's where I was. You fired at me from 26nm while I was chasing Redeagle. I broke lock going defensive from a different shot and you hit the friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuky Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Anyone got some screenshots of it? :) We agreed no one taking any screenshots or using ECM macro before the start of the mission so if we complied to this there should be no screenshots, unless someone ran a recorded track and made screenshots from there... I hope all confirm with this rule of not taking any screenshots with the mission itself as we don't want any lag/etc :book: I think RedFlag was very hard on the RedFor from the begining... we were lower in numbers of fighters... quite a few did not show up... some had tech difficulties and had to leave soon after mission start... and some even left for personal reasons. We did make one tactical error (which I will not say what it was :D) which costed us valuable time and few fighters... next one will be better I am sure... but then again we are to learn from this...

159th_Fusion Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I certainly didn't see any evidence of people printscreening so I think everyone must have behaved themselves, which is testiment to the calibre of people we have flying the Red Flag missions!!

And about tactical errors, I think we might have lost a couple of plane in the beginning due to it, BUT looking at the ACMI (at +1:15) REDFOR had Air supriority all the way to kerch (where there were only BLUEFOR Bombers) :doh: so I just think it was a matter of Fighters not passing on that information to the bombers. Let's have better comms next time around :smilewink: 64th Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 135.181.115.54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redeagleGER Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Goya, did you have jammers on? RedEagle you didn't get a warning? I had warning from the amrams behind me. My accusations stays. Launching from 50 km with a aim120 is waste of missile (and dangerous as u can see) like every shoot one make directly after launch authorization. Anyway excusation excepted. Lets learn from it. Thx to Fudd for the good server performance this time, did work very well for all as i could see.

159th_Fusion Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 X-Man. I will happily stick my hand up to that one. Our flight was CAP at that time I think. I will admit my noobness here, I was having difficulty building SA to work out if the FEBA was safe. I was seeing so many hostiles on my radar it overwhelmed me and was very unsure about calling in SW for fear of getting them all shot down straight away. Obviously something I recognise as something I need to work on before the next mission. My apologies to all Redfor if this turns out to be the main reason we lost (if we lost).

Frostie Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Obviously something I recognise as something I need to work on before the next mission. My apologies to all Redfor if this turns out to be the main reason we lost (if we lost). I wouldn't expect the blame to fall on one squad let alone one man if we did lose , its all in the name of training , fun and valuable experience. RedFor and BlueFor performed exceptional and 159th did a great job pushing BlueFor to Kerch , I just think the mix up call about eveybody taking off for BlueFor set up advatage points during the exercise to occur for each side. Thanx Fudd this is a truly great idea and the interest in LOMAC can only increase.:thumbup: "[51☭] FROSTIE" #55 51st PVO "BISONS" Fastest MiG pilot in the world - TCR'10 https://100kiap.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuky Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 It's alright... we learned from it. Not even 1min before SW called FEBA clear Devil SF dropped ordnance after loitering around 100km from target area, we decided we had to RTB as we were still getting nails from FEBA area and on occasions were even spiked (locked) by fighters. Our fuel was getting low and we considered area still very hostile... if only we knew it wasn't so. See funny thing is... before we dumped all weapons I said to my flight (Devil SF) to drop outter 2 pylons only, on which we has 2xUnguided rockets and 2xKh-25MPU (as there was absolutely no indication of SAM's) and keep 2x Kh-25TV and 2xKh-25ML thinking to keep them just in case (this was just about 1-2min before FEBA was called in clear). Then Rugg says he want's to dump them all as we won't need them on our way to base... so we did... not even 1min later FEBA was called clear... what a feeling we had right then...

X-man Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 As Frostie said, noone alone is to blame for this, I can say on my part, I did not communicate with the Bombers that much either. Im sure if we would have had some better planning between BW and FW we would have had a better result. FW did a pretty good job IMO but we didnt relay the situation to the bombers....Lets have even better planning next time! 64th Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 135.181.115.54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RvEYoda Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 No. This was your shot: Do you know how to playback the track from someone elses cockpit than your own? (I'm guessing that this might have been Cali's track and thats how you took this screenshot - But I really want to know anyway!) Please if someone knows tell me. I tried unlocking 'everything' in LOTU but I dont know how to use F1-view inside all planes. S = SPARSE(m,n) abbreviates SPARSE([],[],[],m,n,0).

RvEYoda Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Chill both of you. Cali shot in a situation where he might not should have(that friendly close to his target is visible) but he certainly does not need to be jumped for it. It's nice to see we've had ONLY one teamkill on red during the entire red flag. Let's be a bit more civil. 50km is generally NOT a waste of a 120, But I would say with the DLZ in the picture above that 120 had about 5% chance of hitting. I have had HOJ amraam kills from 45 nm once. With the current lomac amraam programming I'd say true missile max range is about 5-10% shorter than DLZ rmax is displayed, and NEZ marker needs to be cut by 20%. If you slapped the r-77 onto the eagle and used the amraam dlz, then it might be correct. S = SPARSE(m,n) abbreviates SPARSE([],[],[],m,n,0).

claycephus Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I saw X-man mention the ACMI track. Could we get a link to that? Also, how did you get this ACMI track?

I tried unlocking 'everything' in LOTU but I dont know how to use F1-view inside all planes. That screenshot was only possible because it was taken from watching Cali's track. There is no way to get cockpit views from any a/c where the pilot wasn't the one recording the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S77th-GOYA Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Clay, make sure you have lua export enabled and have the record button on in tacview. It's also a good idea to make sure you have the newest version of tacview. 0.90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudd Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 LOCERF 07-2 MISSION SCORING AND DEBRIEF Trying to score this mission was extremely difficult. The tacview files that were posted were not complete and I thank God that I took notes during the mission. I also took screenshots of the menu at the end to back up the notes I took. I had hoped the tacview would support the inital findings but it did not. Due to scoring difficulty and other reasons I am going to change the way the mission is scored and I will get into that after I go over the point totals. BLUEFOR Total Losses Air to Air: 12 and 1 tk SAM/AAA: 7 POW/MIA: 1 (JaBoG Calli landing at Anapa) Friendly Fire Incidents Air to Air: Kiljun kill Yambo Air to Ground: Stalker kill M-2 Objectives Objective 1: 100% completed Objective 2: 0% completed Objective 3: 0% completed Total Air to Air kills Fighters: 7 Strike: 4 Missiles (Scored as one point per miss) Fired: 121 Hits: 13 Misses: 118 Calculations: + 500 Objective 1 + 30(7) Fighter A/C killed + 40(4) Strike A/C killed -------------------------- + 870 - 50(21) Combat Losses - 100(2) Friendly Fire Incidents - 118 Missiles Missed. ---------------------------- - 498 TOTAL POINTS REDFOR Total Losses Air to Air: 11 and 1 tk SAM/AAA: 0 POW: 0 Friendly Fire Incidents Air to Air: Cali kill Readeagle Objectives Objective 1: 0% completed Objective 2: 100% completed Objective 3: 0% completed Total Air to Air kills Fighters: 9 Strike: 3 Missiles (Scored as one point per miss) Fired: 110 Hits: 17 Misses: 93 Calculations: + 500 Objective 1 + 30(9) Fighter A/C killed + 40(3) Strike A/C killed -------------------------- + 890 - 50(12) Combat Losses - 100 Friendly Fire Incidents - 93 Missiles Missed. ---------------------------- + 97 TOTAL POINTS: VICTOR LOCERF 07-2 CONGRATULATIONS The code is probaly in Russian anyway.

Fudd Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 I am going to add an MIA portion to the scoring. If you drop out, crash your plane, go swiming in the sea, whatever, I will start counting that as a loss and 50 points will be deducted. What I will do is count those present at the end of the mission and use that to make the determination. There were many MIA's at the end of the mission on REDFOR. I know a few had connection issues, several didnt show etc. It was hard to keep track when only 12 REDFOR aircraft were actually downed by a missile and by what was defined as a combat loss. Scoring for the missles: Obviously if I had subtracted 10 points per missle that missed its target, both REDFOR and BLUEFOR would have negative point totals. Due to the modeling of missles in lockon, I have decided to score the missles differently in the future. I will take a ratio of the amount of missles missed to total missles fired. If the teams ratio is above 60% they will be awarded 200 points. 40% to 60% will be awarded 100 points. 20% to 40% will be awarded no points. below 20% will have 100 points deducted. Congrats to all who participated. I have a long list of suggestions for the next redflag. I will go over it when I create a post for LOCERF 07-3. S!
