IADS

[Kvek]

In DCS, SAM work totally indepently and lack any useful configuration. Interception range is lame because SAMs drop missile tracking if the target exit the specified range. But this option should only reduce the launch distance, and not tracking distance.

So, would be nice to have more configuration options (no interception zones/borders, fire when certain heading, altitude, etc (nasams shoot targets at 35.000ft but the missile has no kinetic energy to go that high), move after fire...

And the IADS to connect different SAMs

At one point there was talk about an IADS module, which not only would include better AI for the SAMs but also massive improvements to EW. I don't know what happened to it, but ED needs to revamp things. 

Some other changes I'd like to see.

1. Rename AWACs to EW- and add ground control
2. model the use of datanlinks so systems with datalinks might keep their radars off
3. Jammers and better EW
