My first 2.7 A/A radar and Amraam test :)

[maxTRX]

I won't say I'm terribly disappointed 

The detection range... yea, then again I'm not an expert but the Amraam something changed for the better. I only did couple of engagements so I don't have enough data to run my mouth yet.

This clip: Flanker size target with SPJ pods. The first 120 fired in TWS, look down situation. The lock was broken immediately but the bugger seemed to be flying to the predicted point and/or getting DL updates. The first Fox3 was a kill.

 

 

Second clip:  the drone size target.  Hot and cold.  Hot detection range in a look down was around 23nm.  Cold, co-altitude was around 14nm

what im pretty sure happened is that you reacquired lock inside the 4 sec memory mode window (you actually reacquired twice; first time was in LTWS like 2-3 sec afterwards, which likely reset the 4 sec memory then the final STT). If youd waited say 5 sec before your first reacquisition im pretty sure it wouldnt have guided

It wasn't LTWS. As soon as the bandit popped up on RWS, I switched to TWS and L&S was created. 

When I have more time today, i need to do some tinkering with TWS Auto scan center.  I noticed couple of weird things happening when I reviewed my vid.

I flew another hop just to work on muscle memory for this version of A/A radar button meshing.

I placed one bandit flying at mid to low alt. hot. It was a fairly small target (Jeff).  I wanted to recreate the same look down situation I setup in the first vid above.

I noticed the same possible problem in TWS Auto scan center with the elevation dropping a bit too low. When I entered Manual control, I could reposition the the elevation with no problem.

 

In this short vid, you can see this at the start of the vid.  Following the engagement I attached some footage of me fumbling through all the modes in RWS and TWS. It's sees like it's workable.
