reported earlier FLIR image at night issue

[Sn8ke]

This happened on the NTTR map at night. When engaging targets, just one burning vehicles causes a completely washed out FLIR image on both the TGP and IR Maverick displays. This is when looking in the vicinity of the vehicle but not at it.

Hi BN. This has been reported a thousand times by many customers, how come ED still needs tracks for this to be reported and eventually fixed? It is an issue, has been an issue and will continue to be an issue until fixed; ED has already acknowledged this as well. I'm not trying to be a blocking person here, just a customer worried about the heading ED is taking. Thanks.

How do I know it is the same issue if the post has no useful information to check it?

 

I could just mark it already reported and close, but then nothing will have been checked or confirmed.

 

thanks

Touché. Move along, nothing to see here :)

Bump.  Track replay file is ~111MB.   How about another screen cap?  This one is in Syria.  Black hot or white hot both have same issue.  Both cases are shown.  MFDs are set to night mode.  Cockpit lighting mode is night mode.  HUD is in night mode just in case it matters.   UPDATE:  manually adjusting gain & level seems to clear up the issue to about what is expected.  Same mission.

What I see on the FLIR image at night or in low light is just illegible. Just a splotchy blur no matter the level or gain settings. So it’s not usable at all. Are there improvements planned for the pods? I haven’t flown the Hog for years but I remember being able to pick out targets using the FLIR but that’s not possible now.

Yes, the FLIR rework has been planned for a very long time now.

still no track replay for me to check directly. 

 

I have marked this reported earlier as FLIR work is in progress.

 

Thanks
