mytai01 Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 This is either a Simulator, or it's a video game....Stop nerfing things and making them not real, or confess that this isn't a real simulator...You can't say you're an simulator if you can't make things realistic...HARM has been done and I'm pretty sure it isn't just a firecracker...:music_whistling: MS Win7 Pro x64, Intel i7-6700K 4.0Ghz, Corsair RAM 16Gb,EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW GAMING ACX 3.0, w/ Adjustable RGB LED Graphics Card 08G-P4-6286-KR, Creative Labs SB X-FI Titanium Fatal1ty Champ PCIe Sound Card, Corsair Neutron XTI 1TB SSD, TM Warthog Throttle & Stick, TM TPR Pedels, Oculus Rift VR Headset CV1, Klipsch Promedia 4.1 Speakers...
Northstar98 Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 The problem is 2 fold: First is the lack of component level damage modelling for vehicles - HARM is supposed to home-in on antennae, and while it's basically a guarantee that HARM will destroy antennae it may not destroy vehicles. HARM's warhead is comparable to that of an AGM-65A/B/C/D/H Maverick, except HARM's is blast-frag as opposed to HEAT, which I guess may not guarantee complete vehicle destruction for anything that isn't a light vehicle. The second issue is that HARM in DCS World behaves like any other AG missile - it targets the centroid of the target and not it's emitter, this is especially problematic when targeting ships. HARM IRL, like every anti-radiation missile homes in on the actual emitter/antenna (it is after all emissions that it homes in on). Modules I own: F-14A/B, F-4E, Mi-24P, AJS 37, AV-8B N/A, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.

Northstar98 Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 I hit the S-300 surveillance radar and it kept turning...:cry: Yeah, a problem with the incredibly crude damage modelling of anything that isn't an aircraft - it's arguably worse for units as old as the S-300 we have which is in dire need for a major overhaul.

Shadow KT Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Most often than not, it will damage the radar enough, that it will no longer be able to operate.... even being at 50% will disable a radar. 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
