EA-18G Growler for DCS

[Patrick Bartusch]

Is it possible to create a realistic model of the EA-18G Growler with the same functions and capabilities as the real counterpart or is this not possible.

Secondly

Would it be possible then to create a manual explaining how to use the EA-18G Growler for DCS?

 

Yours sincerely

No and no.  That stuff (electronic warfare) is on the high end of classification, and ED barely touch on it and only on a highly artificial way in existing aircraft.

Unfortunately anything that is related to electronic warfare is going to have classified systems. The only way around it is going to be when those technologies become obsolete enough to be declassified. So your best bet for electronic warfare aircraft is going to be the older aircraft like the F3D Skyknight or early variants of the EA-6 Prowler.

There is no way we could get an HA Growler, we might be able to get a decent AI one, provided ED improves the EW module.

EA-6 Prowler has the same probrem, clasified data.

That is why I said "early" variants like the EA-6A not the more advanced EA-6B since most of the 6A's were retired in the 1970's.

We have on the same situation, Someone has "open documents" without restrictions to implement that system, and the correct systems with carry a EA-6A?... that is the problem. Missing many info.

Time since retirement isn't a terribly good metric of availability as most governments' defense apparatus doesn't prioritize transparency as other wings of government do. The idea of placing a time period on the declassification of certain equipment is alien to them. Bummer for us, really.
