A Hamburgler Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 So I noticed since the last update that they added the AGM-88c but not seeing any videos or posts on how to use it. Sorry if I’m advance if a thread like this has already been made but didn’t see any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimiC Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 When we can use them it will likely be in direct action mode Ie we will have a seeker picture on the ddi that shows the threats the harm can see. We then select one prior to firing (LOBL) Issues we will face are that the distance to a source will be unknown and the range of the missile will be reduced because it will fly an intercept trajectory straight off the rail Hopefully we get a pre briefed mode as well but I suspect that will come later (launch on a tgt waypoint for a known emitter) Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaoqumba Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hi! It is temporarily unavailable, but its appearance means that we will be able to use it in the near future. Like LGB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RglsPhoto Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) with Link-16, could a Cougar send a threat which is identified by HTS to a hornet?

fritz48 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I think they have a special type of targetting pod and same as the GBU10, 12 & 16 and without their respective pods, their pretty much just an attractive decoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incorrect. The HARM can be fired using only its own seeker as sensor, or in Pre-briefed mode in which it targets a coordinate designated in flight planning. The HTS pod, which only the F-16 carries, enhances the ability to detect, classify and target threats on-the fly whose existence are unknown before flight.

dailey123 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 The HARM will really be a game changer for dcs we can now engage SAM back. and it will make for a more balanced approach and online play. Cant wait till it is implemented and ready to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hog_No32 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Incorrect.

The HTS pod, which only the F-16 carries, enhances the ability to detect, classify and target threats on-the fly whose existence are unknown before flight. The main thing about the HTS is that it provides a range of the emitter in addition to the bearing. That enables optimal flight profiles for the missile and therefore allows for greater range shots. Not having a ranging capabilty means the HARM cannot be employed to its full potential as the already mentioned and dedicated SEAD assets F-16C/CJs or German Tornado ECR aircraft can do. Nevertheless I am very much looking forward to lob them from our Hornet soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahuja Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 HARM ... will make for a more balanced approach and online play. Much as I'm looking forward to it, I'm worried it'll be too effective as far as balance goes. I'm not expecting the enemy sam sites to be effective at counter-sead. There was that one IADS script, made for dcs 1.5, though it may work still. It then needs to be added to the various missions one would play. Alternatively, you'd need a player who knows how to do it, doing that instead of flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just put a SA-15 tor next to the radar for the SA-10 it should shoot down harms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerec Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The HARM works great, but I still have problems with the range. It seems, there´s nothing that indicates the optimal firing distance. So I have to fire on off the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB will be the only mode where s range can be displayed because PreBrief as I understand it means you know where the target is and feed that data into the hornets system before you takeoff. The HARM itself or any other onboard sensor on our Charlie are not capable of determining a range to an emitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcnab Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Anyone else not able to shoot HARM's? I can load them up, switch to AG, master arm on, but I have no mode selection available on the left of the STORES MFD, as per Wags HARM video.

There is no entry on the left of the MFD where I can select SP mode (and the others have crosses through them as they aren't implemented yet. Will try this mission and let you know. Thank you again.
