Radio Encryption

[Tripleinside]

Hi

My squad is organizing a PvP event, and we'd like to encrypt our JF-17 radio transmissions.

Is it implemented ? i couldn't find anything in the manual.

 

thanks

Will investigate. Didn’t know whether dcs supports that or not

I know that SRS supports it. Example would be the A-10.

Thanks !

The Mirage and I think the A-10 have radio encryption implemented on UHF

 

We use it all the time when flying our mission with the Mirage

you just select a common encryption key and enable encryption over uhf

I had no idea this was a thing, how does this work? This doesn’t involve SRS right?

It does involve SRS, but also the encryption feature of the aircraft 

 

basically you hop into a Mirage, and launch SRS

on uhf un srs, you select an encryption key; when done, you click on the radio encryption in the Mirage

all Mirage using the same encryption key on SRS will hear the transmission on a given UHF frequency, the others will hear a distorted noise

Hi!

I would like to point out that the actual radio system (R&S M3AR) that use JF-17 includes radio encryption according to manufacturer website Rohde-Schwarz ( I think is the same radio or equivalent )

But is not simulated in DCS neither SRS as an option
