DCS A-10C QUESTIONS


Peyoteros

Recommended Posts

Would be nice to be able to go in to self induced coma for the desired period of time. "I wanna sleep until it's done P.S. In case of fire carry me out to safety and leave there"... This part of the forum would be so quiet. Just a dream, just a dream... :D

reminds me of the southpark episode where Cartman tells people to freeze him so he doesnt have to wait for the nintendo wii....but then he doesnt get unfrozen and meets an army of river otters :)

I would guss a combat mix. It would be nice to select what you got before take off. Knowing the mission, what you are attacking or deffinding would realy make a difrance in what you chooes to take.

I will answer in a bit of a riddle.

 

DCS A-10C is a bit of a descendant from DTS A-10C - the ANG project - what do you think that means in case of armament selection? :)

 

Back to the questions, will the ammunition (high explosive and armor piercing incendiary) for the GAU-8 be a combat mix or do you choose the ammo?

We should include riddles in NDA

 

Oh god no, it takes long enough to read as it is. It'd be much easier if Wags just sent a picture of Achmed the dead terrorist with the words "Silence! I Kill You!" on it.

All right, here's one that's not covered by NDA. How is the NVIS lighting applied to the engine gauges? Are the post lights just white or two-color? Is the NVIS lighting inside the gauge, like the others?

I only respond to that little mechanical voice that says "Terrain! Terrain! Pull Up! Pull Up!"

No, it does not; they are independent systems.

You can slave just about anything to the pod, including mavericks.

 

This might seem like a silly question. Does the LITENING pod increase the lock on range of the Mavericks? I would assume that they still use their seeker head however I don't know if they can be slaved to the LITENING pod's target.

As many of you are aware, Matt is currently unavailable to work. I am here, but in the middle of an apartment move and in any case very tied up with my A-10C tasks for the next couple of weeks at least. Understandably, our testers want to be careful about answering questions. However, such a thread is a good idea and was going to happen at some point anyway, much like we had the Ka-50 Q&A thread a few months in advance of Black Shark. Don't be discouraged by the lack of concrete answers to some of your questions at this point. When there is a good opportunity, we'll go through and try to answer as many as we can. Feel free to ask.

Not as good as the optics on the Nimrod MR2 though. Ahhhh, had soo much fun playing with that thing back when I was at Waddington over an airshow weekend.

 

Point track on boobs rocks! ;)

So if I understand you right it can be slaved to the pod however the mav's seeker must still be able to attain a lock?

 

Yes. How do you think it would track once the missile has left the rail? Mavs are not telepathic :)

Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Correct. I suppose you might make the argument that thanks to the pod, you can begin engagement earlier and thus technically commence more engagements at the maximum passible lock range for the maverick (given a particular target, that is), but I don't know if that is correct in practice.

Mavs are overrated ;)

 

As Matt alluded to - there's a certain elegance sending a JDAM through an insurgent's forehead from 22000' :gun_sniper:
