thank you for the report and the tracks, we have checked with the team and it is correct as is. 

Burn through calculations were redone based on available data. 

thank you

this is ocurring in other planes like F16? did you tried against SAMs if then are more prone to ECM interference?

Just tested it using an AI Su27 with an option set to "ecm always on" aaand its not affecting other aircraft. The F16 burns through the jammer around 29nm and all FC3 jets still the standard 21nm. So.. the Hornet got the worst of it. The question is, is this a change that is being implemented partially and the F18 was the first one to receive it, or is this a change that will only be implemented in the F/A-18 because thats the only jet they could find this type of info...

Did you redo the calculations only for the F/A-18 or for all DCS jets? and by the way, i just tested this against different types of jammer and they burn through at the exact same range. I find it hard to believe that the Su27s cross eyed jammer is as powerful as the F4s ALQ-131... @BIGNEWY

We have asked the team to take a closer look. Once I know some more I will let you all know. 

thank you
