Kercheiz Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Hi, Recently I noticed that on a radar lock, there is no HUD square around target, until I switch to 530D. I have the feeling, without being 100% sure, that it wasn't the case before. Is it a new bug? Or is it the correct behavior, and a former bug that was fixed? Thanks!

I don't know if the new behavior is right, but yes, we used to have target box in NAV mode before... Mirage fanatic !

honeycool75 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 It's unfortunate we can't have a soft lock box on the target without switching to either the gun or missile after the latest M2000C update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the POL mode, that's what it's for. IMO this change could be more realistic, only Elmo can tell us tho :).

Wichid Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Yes - if you want to plot an intercept course and see the target box in the HUD, hit POL (Police Intercept mode). I use this when joining up with the tanker until I get into visual range and go nose cold.

In the POL mode, there will be a continuous audio lock tone, and I think the heatseeker becomes active too if there's one on board without any weapon selection. Looks like a hard lock to me.

I don't remember if the "MISS" volume knob behind the throttle is active, but if not, you can turn off MAG on PPA panel to get rid of the tone :smilewink: Mirage fanatic !

jojo Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Yes, it works! Cool, then you can just mute the tone :thumbup: Mirage fanatic !

The POL mode actually activates the heatseeker lock in PID (TWS) without the magic selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappy Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 How do we have a soft lock without alerting the enemy from now on? The POL mode actually activates the heatseeker lock in PID (TWS) without the magic selected. What exactly do you mean by soft lock? This simply means the IR seekerhead is now looking&tracking where the TWS/radar has found the target. The heatseeker lock is passive anyway since its IR based and not emitting , so no alerting there, plus the TWS / PID is as soft as you can get. Except of keeping the radar off completely and just letting the heatseeker look around by itself. regards, Snappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
