AIM-9 heat seaker is locking the signataure of MiG-21

from back while afterburner turned off!

But can't do that when afterburner is turn on!

Range is 2.5 km and fewer!

 

Test on the video:

Could be the MiG-21 that has the bug, since there are different 'heat' values for afterburner on and off.

- Jack of many DCS modules, master of none.

- Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS.

No it's not Ok! The problem is still exist! MiG-21 has a wrong heat signature after applying afterburner!

AIM-9P almost not able to lock the 21th with afterburner!

AIM-9P5 feels better because its more sensitive!

The MiG-21bis is modeled as having two engines or something like that to handle military and augmented. You can see the RPM go from 100% to -100% when it is engaged. When flying the MiG-21bis the mission log is full of "engine shutdown" and "engine started" events just by going in and out of burner.

This does indeed sound like a problem with the IR signature of the MiG-21s "afterburner engine", which in DCS is indeed modelled as a second engine. Should be reported in the MiG-21 subforum and the Leatherneck public bug tracker.

DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
