Hot_LZ Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I know what you're saying, and in DCS you can use the TACAN exactly the same way it's done in reality. But you're just cutting corners when it gets to exploiting a flaw. Low priority or not. But that's just my opinion. I'm just saying how air-to-air tacan really works and I bet a lot of people like to know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralfidude Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Hold on, not that I have tried this, but can't you HOOK the aircraft you wish to track through TAD, and then select the HOOK navigation mode for the HSI, which should give you range and bearing?

Eddie Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 You can. But if you do that you can't hook anything else. Hooking is fine for rejoining, but using it to maintain formation means you loose the ability to hook anything else, such as target assignment.

Hot_LZ Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 And before you fill another post with made up stuff, I'll inform you that I have tried this in a real aircraft, with real other aircraft, and it really works like I say. And I've also tried it in DCS, it works. Try it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kontiuka Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I guess this currently only works for multiplayer, eh? That is, you can't tell an AI wingman to go to a certain TACAN channel. Or can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
