scommander2 Posted June 12, 2024 Posted June 12, 2024 Hi, I am wondering if OH-58D can share the tactical information over Apache in DCS? Thanks.

jubuttib Posted June 12, 2024 Posted June 12, 2024 You can talk to them over the radio, but that's about it. Was like that IRL too from what Casmo says, and they made it work. 2

scommander2 Posted June 12, 2024 Author Posted June 12, 2024 Thank all. I am new for Kiowa Warrior, and I am wondering that there is something likes AH-64 "targeting sharing"....

LazyBoot Posted June 12, 2024 Posted June 12, 2024 You can send target points and messages to other Kiowas, but at least in DCS you can't send to Apaches. So you're stuck with voice there. (Also, currently attempting to store a received target will crash to desktop, so that's a no-go until fixed) 1

Yeah I don't know exactly how that pants out, I've read that they should be compatible on a few news articles but very little solid. The IDM on both should definitely be able to communicate with ground forces. But IIRC Casmo said that they couldn't do that when he was flying them, so *shrug*... I was surprised to hear how limited the longbow datalink is too. Knowing they sometimes go with 1xFCR equipped and 3x with no FCR helicopters, I was expecting that the FCR equipped helicopter could set up fire zones, find targets with the radar, and share those to the other helicopters, and they'd basically have to just acknowledge, activate and start blasting. But it turns out you can either send a bunch of targets at once, which only show up on the TSD and can't be used as targeting solutions (receiving craft still needs to designate them themselves), or hand them off one by one for shooting at.
