mono6020 Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Hi, i noticed there are 3 Radar Vehicles in Encyclopedia which are not selectable in any country. The P-37 Radar, PRW-11 Radar and RSP-7 Radar Vehicle. Why are they in Encyclopedia but not usable in game? Thanks
Kang Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 If I'm not mistaken some of them are part of certain airfields. One of them is a mobile Russian ILS system that probably doesn't make much sense away from them.
mono6020 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Posted July 9, 2019 Some of them are Search Radars with good range and are very legit targets. I found no reason for them to be not in game as usable units but i expect it all comes down to "early access"
Northstar98 Posted July 9, 2019 Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) The P-37 and PRW-11 are both fantastic looking RADARs, they might be the best looking in DCS World, certainly better than the 1L13 and 55G6, the P-19 comes very close. And yet they're totally unusable. The P-37 is a long range 2D EWR/GCI RADAR and the PRW-11 is a long range height finder. The RSP-7 is a precision approach RADAR and the DRL-7 is an airfield surveillance radar. Though all of them should be placeable.

mono6020 Posted July 9, 2019 Author Posted July 9, 2019 exactly. if you have a look here: http://climateviewer.org/pollution-and-privacy/government-and-surveillance/maps/fortress-russia-air-defence-radar-sam-sites/ P-37 Radars are all over the caucasus region. would be nice to have a realistic EWR network with more strategic radar placements, not only mobile P-19s which are more suitable as SA-2/3 Search Radar or the 2 Russian EWR's with their shorter range.
MBot Posted July 9, 2019 Posted July 9, 2019 The P-37 would be a very useful addition as GCI/EWR radar. It is very unfortunate that it has never been set up as a proper unit, considering that it already exists in game as a scenery object with a very detailed 3D model.
