radar recognize ka-50

Personally, I agree with you.

is this all the icons used in RWR in a10a and f15c they both use the same system right.

I know I'm being nitpicky, so I apologize for that in advance. There is only one NATO code name for the Ka-50 and Ka-52. The Ka-50 is the Hokum and the Ka-52 is the Hokum-B. Alligator, Werewolf, and Black Shark are all Russian names (and all much better than the NATO names, in my opinion).

 

thx for correcting me, yea i forgot to add the hokum name.

The FC2 aircraft should get their "chopper finder" radar upgrade the same second they advance to DCS levels of systems fidelity. Arcade mode + realistic capability? Can't have both.

... and the difference would be what exactly if you had both?

 

You still won't know what hit you in that Ka-50 and either way the F-15 is just doing its designate-fire routine.

Also, it would be interesting to note that the "arcade mode" doesn't really make things easier for the fighter. It makes the simple task of flying easier, yes, but they are missing so many capabilities that a "DCS:F15C" would make things a lot easier for the pilot than the FC2 Eagle. Longer engagement range, longer detection range, datalink, radar automization, IFF on jam, two-way datalink with AIM-120's, waypointed AIM-120 launces, and quite a few more things.

 

People who think the FC2 fighters are "easy mode" due to being arcade need to remember that a lot of the functions built into a modern fighter is made specifically to make it easier to handle - and those are functions that "arcade" is missing. Obvious problem for implementation being that said functions would require a good bit of coding to implement, which is why they're missing (at least partly).

 

With the Su-27S things aren't quite as "easy", though I am unsure of how it changes with the SM.
