[OB 2.8.0.33006] Extremely overoptimistic DLZ for missiles


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I was re-watching some a F-14 mock dogfight video and I noticed the DLZ indicator on the HUD being a lot more fluid and realistic regarding maximum and minimum range than the one we have in DCS. Currently even if you have a rate of closure of +200 knots with an AIM-9M against a cold target, you will still get a max range queue of ~6.5 nm. If you compare it to what's seen in the video, you can see that the DLZ moves a lot more and is less optimistic for both SWs and SPs.
 

 

Also it appears that the Sparrow launch zone/target range doesn't drop down to a lower range scale (i.e. from 20 to 10) even when the target's range is within 10 nm in the video.

Thanks, I just learned about the target range dashes after hundreds of hours in the Tomcat, lol 🙂
