OUO Posted September 7, 2024 Posted September 7, 2024 (edited) Is this a bug?And it also follows the burn-through rules, and the true position of the target will be displayed when it reaches a certain distance. JAM.trk Edited September 7, 2024 by OUO
Harker Posted September 8, 2024 Posted September 8, 2024 (edited) I'm sure for STBY (I guess not), but the radar should indeed be capable of tracking interference sources in SIL. SIL will just stop the radar from radiating, but it will still process all incoming signals. About the range of the jammer being calculated in SIL past the "DCS burn-through" range, it's possible that passive ranging is available, given that the radar can determine an azimuth change rate based on the jammer and the ownship. The Hornet's radar also has special Quick-Look functions available in SIL, for quick updates on trackfiles of interest, although I don't think that's what's at play here. If it's intended, it's probably passive ranging. Edited September 8, 2024 by Harker 1 The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Selecting SIL to receive interference is normal behavior. I'm not saying that, as I'm not sure what the radar exactly does when the switch is on STBY. It's possible that it can still receive incoming signals, and if that's the case, the MC can process them. The only info I have at hand now says that moving the switch to STBY activates/maintains all components of the radar set fully operational, but does not apply high voltage. It's very possible then, that since all components are operational, the radar can receive incoming signals. 1 The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

ED Team Lord Vader Posted September 10, 2024 ED Team Posted September 10, 2024 Just to clarify everyone, in the STBY mode, only the radar transmitter and RF transmission circuits are deactivated. Therefore, it should be similar with SIL mode concerning "false" targets depiction. 1 Esquadra 701 - DCS Portugal - Discord
