[FIXED INTERNALLY]Persian Gulf, Al Minhad (MIN 99X) TACAN moves in flight

[Zeagle]

Moderator: please move this to the appropriate category.

 

Problem: The Al Minhad TACAN (99X MIN) appears to follow the FA-18C around the field.

Approaching from the East toward RWY 27, all appears to be fine. But when returning from Tunb Island, the HSI shows the TACAN to be out in the Gulf! As you approach the field, the TACAN slowly moves back to where it should be.

 

This occurs both in big multiplayer scenarios and in single player. The attached track is a single player, single aircraft test mission.

 

In the images below, the waypoint is where the TACAN should be.

 

Hope this helps

I think it has something to do with the Al Udeid VORTAC in Qatar, it's also on 99X, look out west and you'll see it. Al Minhad should be a VOR/DME instead of a TACAN if you went by real world charts (Al Minhad's VOR/DME is on the same paired frequency as Al Udeid's VORTAC, 115.20MHz).

I am unable to reproduce internally even with the track so it looks like it is fixed already.

 

the TACAN 99X fix should be in public builds soon

 

 

thank you

Al Minhad Tacan is still broadcasting from the wrong location, here's a track.

 

 

Edit - it usually seems to be broadcasting from somewhere west of the field, but is inconsistent.

It's not fixed yet - fix will come "soon".
