Dscross Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 I was flying on a server with turbulence and jetwash enabled. I was in an F-14 running the VX4 skin. My buddy was in a JF17 sitting in parking doing a rearm. He opened his canopy for me to do a supersonic low altitude pass. I came in at Mach 1.1 about 50 or less over his canopy. THen...he died. The server didn't ding me for a team kill, but he blew up just as I passed. (there were no enemy forces nearby, kill feed said "crashed"). I flew back over and got this screenshot. First jetwash kill? Anyone had this happen before? I'm assume that there was some desync, jetwash slapped his wing or something into the ramp? any other ideas?
razo+r Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 Can you reproduce it? But generally, wake turbulence in DCS frequently rips of the wings of aircraft (at least in the air). Maybe it also triggers a spontanious combustion of aircraft on the ground. But that is yet to be confirmed.

draconus Posted December 7, 2022 Posted December 7, 2022 Some time ago there were cases where F-16s on the ground were tipped over by wake turbulence in DCS. I thought they fixed it. Win10 i7-10700KF 32GB RTX4070S Quest 3 T16000M VPC CDT-VMAX TFRP FC3 F-14A/B F-15E CA SC NTTR PG Syria
