is it a bug?

hello,

the other day I did tws2 with the 77 and after launching them I turned around and was able to face the enemy again with the ERs and I had them on tws so I just had to do the lock, I guess it's not normal right?

thanks greetings

What exactly is not normal? ERs in TWS mode? After the lock you're in STT and that's the only mode you can fire and guide the SARH missile.

after firing the 77s, I switch to ER, do a 360º turn and follow the radar pointing at the target.
I think that normally when making sharp turns the ER lock is lost.

Yep, the lock should be broken. Can you upload the short track showing this?

The Rs and ERs supposedly have the ability to relock.

From the manual:

Quote

TWS mode provides automatic target lock on (transition to STT). This is enabled by moving the radar cursor over a target. The cursor will “snap” to the target and follow it thereafter. Automatic lock on occurs at a range equal to 85% of the calculated maximum weapon launch range. The pilot also can force an earlier lock on by pressing the [Enter] key.

In your case the automatic relock was instant the targets were back into radar gimbals so imho it's not correct.

Uhm... it's in the "we're thinking about it" phase or even not possible due to current situation in Russia.

it also does it with the T and ET.
But in all cases T, ET, R and ER in TWS and TWS2 modes, and only in the version of the MIG-S

It's radar doing it, so missile selection does not matter.

rather it is that they are not interested, I think.

I've read some dev answers here and came to that conclusion.
