Yet I still have hope because now they are fixing the R-27R and ER per the change log. So maybe one day, radar ranges will get a revamp too? It's a bit more of a problem now that the higher fidelity aircraft completely out perform the FC3 planes in detection range.

BlackPixxel Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Try the F-15C. Flanker and Fulcrum radar ranges got fixed without being mentioned in the changelog. So it is likely that the F-15C got fixed as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very quick and dirty so let's see what others have experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGTharos Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 @BIGNEWY sorry to ping on this, but MiG-29 performance was already adjusted for example ... are you aware if there is there some specific reason (other than scheduling) that this wasn't done for the F-15?

Breakshot Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 If F15 radar is undermodelled in DCS, then I hope it will be brought to the correct representation. I also hope F15s FM is also finally sorted, as its the most gamy plane in DCS by a long margin. But speaking of radars whats the deal with the F16!? Clearly it is WAY overmodelled. When will this be corrected? Is that on the menu at least? @BIGNEWY Tim "Breakshot" Mytrofanov | C.O. of 51 ПВО / 100 КИАП Regiments | twitch.tv/51breakshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGTharos Posted May 27, 2021 Author Share Posted May 27, 2021 There's that, and also the ability to top out about 0.5 to 1.5 more G than should be physically doable, so the horizontal stabs are probably not experiencing any airflow resistance at higher speeds. Or perhaps none at all, overall. There's a weird transonic roll-off at higher altitudes that I don't believe should be happening, and there are some AP issues and a very barely noticeable control hitch that becomes important in some finesse situations. The last might be out of date, it's also hard to reproduce. But none of this has to do with the radar.

Harlikwin Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 TBH, the biggest issue in my mind isn't really the issue with range, its the fact that the radar is so easily notchable without some sort of prediction for the trackfile.

Bingo! 23Gs with 3 tanks aint no joke But it really is the weakest plane FM wise in DCS. Its only AFM.

I've bandit just makes a 360 degree turn and your aim120 is trashed. Use range cursor effectively, Narrow scan and MED PRF when within 30miles. Problems solved. Its a great radar in its current state already. It certainly is way better in lookdown and against notching targets then say a Flanker, like 2x better! The only thing flanker has going for it is EO sensor integration. 1 Tim "Breakshot" Mytrofanov | C.O. of 51 ПВО / 100 КИАП Regiments | twitch.tv/51breakshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
