So then...

 

I was told that in FC 2 the EOS was vertical slewable...

 

Is it in real life? And can it be done if it is with 1.2.4?

Posted

There is fairly large debate on this in the FC3 bugs thread. In short IRL it is not slew able but is a fixed device. IRL (depending on version) it has 3 basic fields of view. A WIDE field of view and a Close or narrow field of view and an additional Close combat Field of view. In 1.2.3 it "appears" (from the HDD display) to be slewable in Azimuth LEFT CENTRE RIGHT but I dont think it actually is. It is no longer slewable in elevation.

OEPS-29 from the MiG-29

Fitted to the MiG-29A, KOLS is a combined IRST/LR device. All aspect device. Acquires targets independently, or with data input from the radar. Can detect a non-afterburning fighter head-on at a range of 12-18km. The collimated laser can provide ranging data from 200-6500m accurate to 3m. Scanning limits are ±30° azimuth, -15°/+30° elevation.

Chart showing KOLS operational modes from MiG-29 combat employment manual

Operates in several scanning modes. In large FOV mode scanning is ±30° azimuth, +30°/15° elevation. In small FOV mode scanning limits are ±30° azimuth and ±15° elevation. Close combat mode scans +16° to -14° by 4°. Lock-on mode scans 6° x 4°. Target tracking rate is up to 30°/sec.

KOLS is able to reject flares only if the combined signature of the flares is less than the target.

Targets are displayed on the same display as the radar.

About head on detection, what determines the 12-18km(non afterburner target) range. Is it things like enemy engine rpm (cruise-military), size, temperature outside, and altitude etc. Also what would you think the detection would be for an after burning target.

All of that plays a factor in detecting a target. We'll never know what effects it unless we fly a real jet in all different types of weather or a real pilot tells us. What we would think of about the detection of a AB target.......they'll only be guesses, we don't know.

В отношении МиГ-29 все правильно.

Что касается ОЛС-27 (Су-27, Су-33) - центр зоны обзора может перемещаться по углу места вручную летчиком. Поиск может осуществляться в пределах -15 + 60 градусов.

OLS-27

 

 

A combined IRST/LR device for the Su-27, similar to the MiG-29's KOLS but more sophisticated, using a cooled, broader waveband, sensor. Tracking rate is over 25deg/sec. 50km range in pursuit engagement, 15km head-on. The laser rangefinder operates between 300-3000m for air targets, 300-5000m for ground targets.

Search limits are ±60deg azimuth, +60/-15° in elevation. Three different FOVs are used, 60° by 10°, 20° by 5°, and 3° by 3°. Detection range is up to 50km, whilst the laser ranger is effective from 300-3000m. Azimuth tracking is accurate to 5 secs, whilst range data is accurate to 3-10m. Targets are displayed on the same CRT display as the radar. Weighs 174kg.

OLS-27K for Su-33 featured new algorithms and better processor. It allegedly tracked targets in pursuit mode by their IR signature at 90 km during tests.
