Snacko 2-1 Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Had anyone tested the BARAX pods yet? What is the use case for it? How is its effectiveness?
Willykurtz Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Have a little test yesterday. Tease a SA-2 SAM and really have no idea all three missiles have a miss due to my evasive maneuver or BARAX helped. Anyway SAM lock-on me and launch at his normal distance. Wait for manual update.
Big-foot Posted March 25, 2023 Posted March 25, 2023 One of the guys I fly with reported that he was able to do a pop-up bombing attack on a Roland SAM without getting fired upon, using the Barrax. Without Barrax, the Roland SAM would always fire at the top of the maneuver. 1 Specs: Samsung Odyssey MR (VR) MoBo ASUS Z97-K ; CPU i5-4690K 4.1GHz w/CM Hyper212 Evo; GPU GTX 980Ti; RAM 2400MHz CL11 2x8GB; SSD Samsung EVO 250GB (x2); HDD WD Blue 1TB; Case Corsair Obsidian 450D Thrustmast T.16000M TWCS HOTAS, Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals DCS modules: NTTR, Normandy, M-2000C, Mi-8, SA342, FC3, Ka-50, UH-1H, Bf.109K4, FW-190D9, P-51D, Hawk T.1A, CA
Foogle Posted March 25, 2023 Posted March 25, 2023 It's very useful at creating asymmetric loads, I'll bet dimes to dollars that it will be minimally used until the PHIMAT comes along and balances it out. It does work fairly well as an ECM pod though.
HawkEXO Posted July 20, 2023 Posted July 20, 2023 (edited) How is everyone's experience against aerial threats? Also can you carry two of them, and if so does that improve functionality? EDIT: nope, checked and you cannot load more than one. Also, does it interfere with your own radar? i.e. break a STT lock? EDIT 2: Did a LOT of fighting in the EE today and I do believe the jammer pod will break your own radar lock sometimes, but overall it wasn't much of a factor. I just left it on while fighting and locked & fired Super 530s just fine most of the time. Edited July 22, 2023 by HawkEXO
