SA-11 Buk SR 9S18M1

[71st_Mastiff]

since when do these fire close range at me? I was at least 5,000ft from said target at 682.9 feet agl.

 

Also Tacview isnt giving me target values for the 2 A10A+SA-11=NA or showing max range.

Isn't there a minimum range? On those?

The dcs weapons wiki is still

blank on all various weapons.

Well i have been getting engaged at 5,000ft from target, at 692m height

or 1,300ft agl after i have killed the radar and 3 others. I only have a tacview but then that one isn't showing max or min ranges of that sam sa11, im playing the first 3 missions of the fC3 A10A campaign.

I know I'm supposed to go after the arty but the 2 buk medium sights are priority do to their lethality to me and my wingman, and their proving to be an issue even at short ranges.

Yes, and?

 

That's well within engagement parameters, especially as far as the TELAR is concerned.

So as i get this right the launcher has its own tar or telar?

[near_blind]

That is correct.

[159th_Viper]

So as i get this right the launcher has its own tar or telar?

 

The launch vehicle is a TELAR (Transporter Erector Launcher and Radar), albeit with more restrictive engagement parameters in the absence of Snow Drift information.

[71st_Mastiff]

Ah thank you, now i can also take this into consideration to my engagement zones.

I swear this whole time i was knocking out sam sights and consider them dead.

 

Thanks for the help.
