arkasha_s_mishkoi Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 So i'm reading the manual and there is a picture with red flasging LAUNCH button. Why it's not flashing in game? Or perhaps i'm doing something wrong? Thanks.
QuiGon Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 It's supposed to flash, when the RWR detects an active radar guided missile signal. Is this not happening for you in DCS? Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
CornAddict Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Just tested and pretty sure I'm not getting the button warning either, just the 7-tone RWR warning.
arkasha_s_mishkoi Posted May 21, 2024 Author Posted May 21, 2024 Any update on this issue since we're going to get RWR search mode change? @Flappie
Solution Flappie Posted May 21, 2024 Solution Posted May 21, 2024 (edited) Yes, there was an update. I wanted to give you some feedback but I couldn't find the right thread, so thank you for the ping. Devs said that according to available documentation, the real AN/ALR-87 RWR was incomplete: both "Launch" light and "ACT/PWR" button were present but not operational. I know this F-20 commercial video features what looks like the same device, with a working "Launch" light, and that was my main source when I reported this in the first place. The problem is, this video IS a commercial, it does not necessarily depicts the real product. Moreover, the F-20 being an evolution of the F-5, it could very well have an evolved RWR. The DCS: F-5E manual already implies that some buttons are not operational, since they don't appear in the list: Edited May 21, 2024 by Flappie 1 ---
SparrowLT Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 (edited) Now if i press the SEARCH button NOTHING shows up on RWR.. NOTHING depress it and everything shows... its even more broken than before Search button pressed: nothing No search option: all shows up Edited May 22, 2024 by SparrowLT
Flappie Posted May 22, 2024 Posted May 22, 2024 @SparrowLT Wrong thread. Here's the one you're looking for: ---

There is any real F-5 pilot whom can enlighten us ?
Bucic Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 @mayo25 It would have to be either a Swiss AF pilot or a USAF Aggressors pilot. I have never seen any RL pilots chiming in here on the forums. I tried to get in contact with any people involved with F-5E through a pilot working with demo teams attending international venues, no luck so far.

nairb121 Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 For what it's worth, the F-5N NATOPS includes this line regarding the AN/ALR-87, pages VIII-26-4 - VIII-26-5. I assume this is the devs' source for these keys not being functional. null 1 1
