ViFF Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 With the Syria map, it would be awesome to see some Israeli developed weapons. Python 3/4/5 Derby missile AGM-142 Popeye, etc. The Python 3 is actually already in the DCS library as the Chinese PL-8. I recall there was a mod by iafscx with the Python 3 for the F-15 but I'm not sure it includes the special "canted" pylon necessary for the F-15 due the the size of the rear fins of the missile.

Max1mus Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 What about IDF air defences like Iron Dome w. EL/M-2084? DCS in its current state can not live without those on top of an upgraded variant of SA-15 like M2. Too many standoff weapons, but no proper SAM counters for them. When ED reworks russian missiles: Spoiler https://imgur.com/VoBlY9n (April 2021 update)
TaxDollarsAtWork Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 What plane would you put them on? Certainly not the teen series fighters we have in game currently as they're all based on US version, which do not use these missiles. Seems nonsensical to me to ask they be added, unless you also want to add with them AI Neshers Kfirs Baraks and Netz fighters.

ngreenaway Posted October 15, 2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Baco- i would be cautious if i were you. i dont remember seeing anything about it in the forum rules, but i have a feeling trafficking in human organs -even your own- might be a bannable offense. perhaps Newey or 9L can weigh in on that?

Cheers! Hy, is there any mod for using Python 3 (PL-8) with F-16CM?
ViFF Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 As far as I know the Python 3 was not used on the IAF F-16. Only used on the F-15, Kfir, and sometimes F-4E. Cheers IAF.ViFF http://www.preflight.us Israel's Combat Flight Sim Community Website
nighthawk2174 Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Python 4/5 would be super cool to have. Not sure if there's really enough on it to get it 100% accurate but i'm sure that one could get enough info from cfd and approximations of its motor type to get something that would be somewhat close. Spice though would be more work as, at least if bms is accurate, depends on additional functionality in the UFC and DED. But would not be opposed to ED doing this. Who knows maybe an F-16I as a future module would be nice.
ViFF Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 The Python 4 and especially the 5 family are claimed to have advanced options such as Lock On After Launch (LOAL) and other nifty sensor, guidance and autopilot functions such as electro optic imaging and post merge full sphere launch ability that are simply impossible to get any reliable information about. Marketing materials of the OEM toting these abilities should not be considered reliable data. The fact of these missiles existence in any "other" software title claiming to be a "simulation" is simply a joke to their claim as there is no available data to simulate any of these attributes.

Who knows maybe an F-16I as a future module would be nice. Anything Israeli (and modern) is a no-go for DCS. Israeli aircraft are heavily modified inside and out, and no information is publicly available to simulate in detail (even cockpit shots are OPSEC). The closest thing is a stock US made aircraft with an Israeli livery. It would be more reasonable to have Israeli assets as AI, with Python acting like Aim-9X, and Spice acting like JDAM.

F-2 Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Python 5 might actually be accurate for our F-16 https://www.f-16.net/f-16-news-article2044.html also has anyone ever managed to use the Pl-8 in game? What’s it like? How does it compare?

bies Posted July 26, 2022 Posted July 26, 2022 Shafrir-1, -2, Python -3 might be possible. More modern are ridiculously classified due to Israeli policy. This earlier, yet distinct Israeli made weapons would be great, to be honest I can see them being added to DCS together with some aircraft of that era which Israeli used being released. IDK, maybe F-15A or C, or F-16A,. Mirage III or typical Israeli one like Kfir, Lavi. Our F-16C from 2007 would use Python-5, but we can safely forget about such missile as long as we don't want totally unrealistic generic weapon with close to zero in common with real life being added to DCS.

We have Python 3. Deka added the Pl-8 a while ago. I just don’t think anything uses it. I’m curious how it compares to pl-5, aim-9l, magic II, and R-73.

Oh yes yes. I said might but without the emphasis. But if it becomes known it could be interesting.
