F-2 Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 As realistic radar modeling is becoming the norm in DCS, first with Razbam’s Mirage 2000 and F-15E and now with Heatblur’s F-4, I thought the Fulcrum would be a great opportunity for ED to join in. The Fulcrum’s radar is well documented and ED has SME on staff here is a lecture series from Ukraine’s national Aerospace University and a radar book that I believe ED has used before. https://studfiles.net/nau/145/folder:11012/#5383849 https://studfiles.net/preview/5383872/ https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2378427/ Some other potential sources are the US National Air and Space Intelligence Center which recovered an Iraqi export standard N019 at the end of the Gulf War (HAVE NOSE) and AFOTEC which until recently operated ex Moldovan MiG-29 9.13 inherited from the USSR. 12 1
Solution lmp Posted January 8, 2024 Solution Posted January 8, 2024 I'm pretty sure this is already planned considering the ongoing rework of the F-16C and F/A-18C radars, but it's definitely worth saying. The differences in radar modeling between modules are very visible and going back to an older (or just worse) implementation is quite painful. 4
Gierasimov Posted January 8, 2024 Posted January 8, 2024 I am sure ED will strive to deliver the best Fulcrum - A simulation available to commercial market. The announcement of features to be implemented will be as exciting as the reveal itself 1 Intel Ultra 9 285K :: ROG STRIX Z890-A GAMING WIFI :: Kingston Fury 64GB :: MSI RTX 4080 Gaming X Trio :: VKB Gunfighter MK.III MCG Ultimate :: VPC MongoosT-50 CM3 :: non-VR :: single player :: open beta

F-2 Posted April 8, 2024 Author Posted April 8, 2024 makes me very excited for what ED might decide to cook up
AeriaGloria Posted April 8, 2024 Posted April 8, 2024 17 hours ago, F-2 said: makes me very excited for what ED might decide to cook up The MiG-29 manual is full of warnings about false contacts both radar/IR, over swampy or wet areas. How the target indicator will go down if you select false target. And the range/azimuth inaccuracy for each mode. Hope all these things are modeled. The IRST should have good filtering, but should also show false things 9 Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com
