The missing ammo

[Silver_Dragon]

On the DCS World directories has some interesting EDM ammunition:

• PG-9V: ammo to the SPG-9M Recoiless Rifle.
• PG-16V: ammo to the RPG-16 launcher.
• Mk-46: ASW Torpedoe used on S-3/SH-60, some UsN/NATO ships

Has plans to implement that ammunitions on DCS World?

Other missing ammo into the DCS Directories:

• Mk-40: Air delibery Destructor (DST) mines (will fitted with Mk 75 DST ACOUSTIC (ACC) & MAG influence fuzing).
• Mk-77: Fireye, sucessor from Napalm, incendiary bomb.

The PG-16V is already implemented and can be seen being fired by "Paratrooper RPG-16".

The Mk 46 appears to be from the South Atlantic assets (the exact same model is present in that directory too, with its inaccuracies - like the nose that's the wrong shape and the rear-most propeller that's a lot smaller than it should be).

The RPG fire artillery rounds. Not actual rocket propelled granade. Not sure about damge and damaged radius. But the graphical explosion is too big. It seems to be the exact same explosion effect as the 80mm mortar(which also seem a bit too big)  

 

The ammo type i miss the most besides incendiarys, is the flachetes used by all helicopters that use the Hydra. Common in Vietnam and common in Afghanistan. I know it's on the todo list for the Apache. And probably is waiting for some fragmentation simulation modeling that is missing from bombs and rockets. As they are basically single direction frags(at least how I assume they'll be modeled in DCS) 

But flachetes was also commonly used on fast jets with rocket pods. F4s used them a lot in Vietnam. Giving they were safe to use close to friendlies as long as they were fired in a safe direction.

It certainly used to fire a generic shell, but it doesn't any more:

Has two Mk-46 into DCS directories, one on the SA assets pack SouthAtlanticAssets directry and another on ED CoreMods > Tech > TechWeaponPack directory. RAZBAM was unable to implement a ASW Weapon (has no a funtionality on the core to make a active/passive guided torpedoe). I talked about the ED TeckWeaponPack, none about 3rd party weapons.

Negative, All RPG fire artillery shells.

I just posted a set of screenshots and a track that clearly show it doesn't.

Yes, they are the exact same model, 

The one in the ED directory was taken from the SA assets, as that's where this torpedo model originally was.

Meanwhile has the exact model, ED has the total control about add and implement new weapons and funtionality (by 3rd parties).

Just a few days ago I saw the insurgent rpg fire the artillery shell.

The insurgent one also fires the PG-15V model:

 

If you change .trk to .miz you'll get the mission file, confirming I used the insurgent one.

Strange. I had my track go in super slow motion. And what came out of the RPG was the same artillery shell as always. And this was like a week ago. I'll have to try again. Explosion is still to large, an RPG though. But the graphical effects doesn't necessarily correlate to the damage simulation. But it looks odd that both RPG and 80mm mortar has more or less the same explosion size of a mk82.
