thstuder Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi everyone, i'm currelty learning the F-18 and as for now i'm starting to learn about EW. the issue is that when i start form Cold & Dark, i switch on the EW Module, the sound rong, but in flight, when i'm close engough to a threat, such as a SAM or even a plane, the EW doesnt detect a thing. Is there something to modify ? Moreover when i start a in flight mission, everything works well.. I hope you could help me, best regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Harker Posted June 8, 2022 Solution Share Posted June 8, 2022 Your cockpit seems set up correctly, but you're outside of the detection range of these air defense units. The ZSU-23-4, for example, will only show up on the RWR when it's tracking you, which it'll only do if you're close enough.I start from cold and dark all the time and I don't have your issue.If you determine that the above is not the solution, post a track of a small mission, so we can see what exactly is happening.

Foka Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 And SA-9 is an IR missile, so won't show on RWR. Place SA-5 on map and I'm sure you'll notice it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lujunning Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Deploy some SA-15 Tors to test, they detect some longer, furthermore, they work independently, so they can be easily put in the scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
