Shimvolski Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 I have been working through the campaign and it has been great so far. I think I am on mission 11 and have noticed on the load out I have smoke rockets and have had them on previous missions. My question is does it help the ai wingmen see targets you want them to attack better? Is it worth even using the smoke rockets or are they a part of the load out because they are normally on a10s in real life?
Yurgon Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Is it worth even using the smoke rockets or are they a part of the load out because they are normally on a10s in real life? I think in DCS they don't help the AI to spot anything, unfortunately. But IRL (and in DCS MP) smoke rockets would be a very effective way to mark a target and/or make sure the pilot is about to attack the proper target. I believe they'd be mostly used by AFACs or AFAC qualified pilots, at least that makes the most sense to me. In any case, my take is that they're used in the campaign because they're part of realistic combat loadouts. :thumbup:
baltic_dragon Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 I am not sure about AI but it can be useful for player to use these in target - rich environment and for better SA :) For more information, please visit my website.
