In the Hornet, though the Mig 29 was hot this time, it locked at 40 miles which was a bit of a surprise in its self. Doesn’t that 20 mile difference negate some of that speed advantage? Mig must have been is some sort of defending manuver for sure, its was not pure head-on definitelly. Mig has quite big RSC, and I can always, I say always lock it up over 40nm.

They were completely oblivious to my existence. They were cold though which sounds like it’s a factor.
skywalker22 Posted June 2, 2022 Author Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) So you said it was going cold, away from you? I actually never tired to lock a plane going cold on that kind of distance - 20nm. Its pointless, missile would never reach it. But it you couldn`t lock it up, its really strange, seems some sort of a bug indeed. Can you record and paste a video together with a track file here? Going cold it really shouldn`t be a factror, its still the same RCS. Going low or high doesn`t make a difference also, since RCS is always the same (DCS static number).

I’m about to leave to go camping for four days with the wife and kids, predictably we’re all at various stages of a virus our youngest bought back from nursery and all have conjunctivitis Wish me luck! 1
