Vyrtuoz Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) Sometimes for fun or out of necessity, I am firing RB-75B at air targets. It is an interesting weapon against slow / non-maneuverable targets, also because it cannot be easily jammed… The other day, I have tried against a head to head MiG-23, and I was surprised to see that the RB-75 was able to track a target which moved in its back! I am not sure about the official tracking of this weapon, but I would be surprised the real Maverik has be made to track far away from its intended target point which is usually a building or a tank. I have attached the flight as well as a screenshot which demonstrate the problem. Also, I believe that the MiG-23 is also cheating on that matter, because I don’t believe a real pilot would have be aware of the incoming AGM-65. But I guess this is another more general bug...Tacview-20200830-161430-Bug-RB-75B.txt.zip Edited September 1, 2020 by Vyrtuoz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vyrtuoz Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Ooops, I missed that post. Marvelous video :thumbup: I wonder if the A-10 mavericks can do the same. And if they work fine, why on earth the Viggen does not use the exact same weapon, just renamed?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuiGon Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) I wonder if the A-10 mavericks can do the same. They can't and neither can the Hornet nor Harrier Mavericks. This behaviour is esclusive to the Viggen Mavericks. Why that is, I don't know :dunno: Edited September 2, 2020 by QuiGon Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

We are working with ED to fix that. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
