  1. Most Russian literature points to a 20 user limit (Количество абонентов) Most likely additional could be fed through a gate way if not dirrectly https://sccs.intelgr.com/archive/2015-01/06-Aganesov.pdf Yeah that could work too
  2. yes it would be nice to see this fixed could have all friendly flankers on a sever feed with their contacts highlighted as 2 and 1 being things you see and are sorting
  3. This mixed seeker salvo thing, I've only seen it in old PVO docs from the 60s and 70s for certain bomber intercepts. I wonder where this ET LOAL myth comes from, its a rather simple par for the course late 70s single colour seeker. People struggled making more complex ones LOAL...
  4. The behaviour is correct as is right now, it will reacquire if lock is reestablished within MEM time. Merely passing through the beam will not instantly trash the missile. This is in line with what is known from the MiG-29 manuals and so on.
  5. Would be lovely, I'm not that big a fan of the legacy boomer hornet, I would be all over a Super Bug even if it had the same radar. Probably a pipe dream and I'll have to settle for the cold war relic in game. On the Bright side the Strike Eagle is coming but again not the Korean one that I wanted
  6. Good for you I guess. Their plane is wrong and needs fixing, and its still even under-performing compared to the FIRST APG-63, which isn't even what they were attempting to model! Wonderful I think it's worth pointing out to all the anons that it actually has an APG-63v1 according to ED's own manual for the F-15C nullIt certainly would be nice if Razbam shares some of that APG-70 info with ED so the radar will be correct. Giga Boomer cope over a stupid airforce decisions, should've tried to buy a Strike Eagle like plane in the mid 70s It was all up to the customer and countries like Israel had the foresight to make their F-15A/Cs into bomb trucks as well as ASFs A little off topic but all of this makes me wish we were getting a Slam Eagle or better yet F-15I Ra'am, hero of Op Outside the box
  7. Very interesting info maybe ED can look at your CFD side by side theirs and fix some things id also be interested to see CFDs on something like a python 4 or R73
  8. How about adding peer to peer and fighter to fighter modes to the 27s DL Since it's missing that as a sort of consolation for MFI 55
  9. While it's an improvement I still think it should be better I'll have to find the test data from the 70s and test again
  10. Burn time is off and doesn't match WEZ sim or charts
  11. @ChizhWhat are your sources can you share on the RMD-2
  12. No, this is a bad idea OP. Instead the ME should have local stations you can tune into Like a TikTok tunes radio station
  13. So a pilot confirms it, all other sources confirm it too and its wrong in your opinion?
  14. Are you discounting that a RuAF pilot said it has better IRCCM too?
  15. I agree missiles all being on the same API having the same complete CFD modeling is the priority for existing missiles I just want these other 90s missiles to not be forgotten by ED so they can eventually make it into DCS Preferably before I turn into an old fossil like half the forum
  16. The RMD-2 does have superior IRCCM and an improved seeker This source mentions it has a dual colour seeker with 'sensitivity which is twice as high as the basic model' https://www.gazeta.ru/politics/2015/02/20_a_6420965.shtml?updated Sounds like an improvement, and it was a source you gave me less than a year ago It was a source you gave me, remember? Not to mention IRL pilots also agree the Seekers IRCCM have been improved On that topic of 1990s AAMs I feel an AIM-120A without HOBS tapes (while the 120B gets them to reflect some 2000s software upgrades would be nice) More importantly later batches of the AIM-9M https://odin.tradoc.army.mil/mediawiki/index.php/AIM-9M_American_Short-Range_Air-to-Air_Missile Some information of these improvements the -9 would be nice for some 90s environments too
  17. No, I am not a star wars fan, in my generation we grew up with Halo. Now something can be said about emulation of capabilities vs simulation. Especially for an AI Unit. Many sims that have earned lots of praise from our generation did engage in emulating the not so well documented and unknown Do you believe that the MiG-29s FM and systems in Falcon 3.0 were based on the abundance of documentation ED had when it made its new MiG-29 FM in 2018? The answer is no, known estimates were fair enough for a non player asset, that is if the goal was to make a more or less authentic experience. Same can be said for the M1 Tank Platoon I really doubt it had the most authentically modeled T-80Us or Bs You could also take it up with ED, they already have an F-117 Wonder where those documents came from if we follow your line of thinking... Ontop the topic at hand though, yes I'd be a serious fan of a Singapore or Korean F-15E Those are my favourites, these military sims seem to focus too much on Europe
  18. Not sure how 'Gulf Wars' are counted, do we ignore the 80s Iran Iraq war and the prior one in the 70s? Regardless It seems you yourself didn't read what I said Process its contents more carefully, It was quite a common load out from 1991 till the early noughties It would be nice to sim this period a little more accurately with the F-15
  19. Not exactly the biggest top gun fan I am more a fan of classics such as Sky Fighter (歼十出击, the Meng Long attack at the end was beautiful) Sky Hunter and Shir Dil. The most important comparison between the old and new movies for me was in the beach volleyball/football scenes To the new movies credit, the boys in this move were more built than in the 1980s' one, there were more hunks too but we hardly got to see as much of them The older movie is arguably superior in this regard, the shots on the bare chested men are much more dramatic and masculine I liked that The scene was some what ruined by misplaced characters in the sequel, I just couldn't ever take John Hamm as a serious military man after seeing him in so many rom coms in general!
  20. When I think of a Modern combat flight simulator I do not think of museum relics, I think of current events. Planes I am liable to see in a news reports. Not variants of planes that were heavily out dated by the time I was born. On that note DCS needs more modern AI assets like Growlers, Super Hornets (A favourite of mine) newer missiles like ASRAAM IRIST Derbys Noughties upgraded F-4s MiG-21s and F-5s too, so that I can sim things like the 2011 UN Security Council resolution 1973 Or Hypothetical Scenarios with important regional powers like a fictional Russo-Turkish conflict or KSA v Gulf state fight Maybe PRC vs some of its neighbours Things like the Yom Kippur war or Mole Cricket 19, hardly 'modern' as they were events that took place more than 50 years ago
  21. This picture is from just about the end of Southern Watch and was taken in 2000 It was quite a common load out from 1991 till the early noughties
  22. I think you misunderstand my question. I am curious if missiles with older, more simplistic guidance laws should also exhibit such nose pointing IRL, even at incredibly low speeds. Could an example of this maybe be an AIM-9B? Or control lay outs that don't lend themselves to be good at low speed control and flying as it may not be relevant to the misison, like a Nike Hercules
  23. Yes friend, no murzilka in the western brochures more truth in pop culture science mags than the word of god yes
