I look forward to everything and i will be patient, no need to rush things. I just hope that priority number 1 is the radar lock loss. Im curious how something so esential is still there after so many updates, i guess we are facing here a difficult challenge because of the more realistic radar implementation, if that is the case, keep working guys! You'll solve it! ;)

The JHMCS has nothing to do with a line. ;)

You're absolutely right: Cueing (or Cuing) System. But I wasn't referring to that. ;)

LOL @ the ground radar votes... The pod will be used along with GBU's, JDAM's and HARMs 10,000x more often. Maybe they have a hardon for killing boats? <shrug>

 

I love the A/A stuff, but ground pounding is more it's forte, and I'm a bit baffled why they developed the A/A stuff first.

Well, we already have a great A/G tool in the A10C and the hornet is the first modern full fidelity jet fighter in dcs.

So HARM, PGM, JHMCS and LTWS is not enough for now.

 

People are amazing

I voted HARM, since many of the other stuff can be find on different aircrafts or are partialy there on the Hornet but still WIP, but having something to finaly do human SEAD in game would be nice instead of seing people trying to SEAD with the Harrier's self-defence Sidearm :) On other words, something new.

I voted for finished A2A radar. Right now, we've got a half-working system that loses locks all the time and doesn't give nearly enough target detail. In a BVR situation, the F-15 has a huge advantage simply because it gives more information on the target and doesn't lose the lock. I don't fly the Russian planes, but from the times they've shot me down it seems they have a really good weapon control system as well. I think finishing up the A2A capabilities should come first so everyone knows what they're dealing with in that capacity, and then we can focus on getting the A2G systems up and running. I think part of finishing A2A is also the IFF capability of the Hornet which will also be useful in A2G stuff.

 

 

Cheers!

i would like to see laser targeting for the FA18, along with Mavs - this would bring the capabilities up to at least what other air frames can do, for those that just want to fly the FA18 this would make for some great additions and opens up the scope for more mission types to be developed as dumb bombing is getting old now
