My one wish is for the Shrike to have a better than 5% chance of a hit. Right now they aren't worth bringing - you're better off trying to gun the enemy radar. I know they aren't really modern missiles but they're such fun to use and so well done, I'd really like to have a reason to use them. Perhaps 50-60%? I actually got a a 50% hitrate with the Shrike here, and even with 2 bags of fuel I still had 3 cluster bombs to play with to take out other stuff. 2 i7 13700k @5.2ghz, GTX 3090, 64Gig ram 4800mhz DDR5, M2 drive.

QuiGon Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) Keep in mind that Shrikes are not DEAD weapons. They are SEAD weapons. The purpose is not to hit and destroy a target. Their purpose is to surpress it. Unfortunately the SAM AI in DCS doesn't act accordingly, unless specifically scripted in the mission.

El Chapo Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Hello, Quick question please. My DCS crashes when loading after I tried installing the A4 mod. I followed exactly the procedure in the readme file, and I have other mods that are perfectly working. I tried downloading the .zip file several times, but no changes. I used to play the 2.0 version without issues, that's only since I tried to re-install a new version recently that I had issues (I removed it for a long time, until I decidd to give it another try). Did anyone meet and solve this issue before? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There you can enable NVG equipment for the unit, and/or remove the ECM panel if you wish. Note this same set of tabs also allows you to preset the radio frequencies used by the radio presets.

Hi Guy's, it turns out that the A-4E does have a raise and lower seat switch. It's on the right side console down past the radio settings. I programmed it to buttons and now I can raise and lower my seat as needed. Perfect for lowering it to see through the reticule better, which was what my original post was about, but also to raise it higher for Carrier landings. It works a treat without having to change any POV settings. 3 2 Cheers, Aussie Pilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YSIAD_RIP Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Thats great @Aussie Pilot glad you noticed. I had my seat bound to the camera view bindings but the actual seat adjustment is much nicer. Looking back at the Version 2.1.0 30 Oct 2022 A4 update it seems like Seat Adjustment Switch was added then along with dozens of other changes and improvements.

4eyes Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Sometimes, but not always, when I dive bomb with the A-4-e, when I start to pull up, the aircraft goes completely out of control. What am I doing wrong? Are my controls set wrong? Also, lately I have been having some trouble trimming the aircraft. Ideally, how should the controls be set, and what curves?

First, check your speed. If you got to fast in a dive you loose control. Above Mach 0.9 the plane get unstable. Second, do not pull to much gs. Above 6 Gs you can get problems.

denissoliveira Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Hello, I would like to put aerial refueling capability on the F-5, as is done on the A-4? What code to put, I've already checked all the code and I can't find out where it's done in A-4. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
