Lazur

It's like an AWACS....MiG pilots wont need to turn on the radar to get to their targets. The GCI officer uses command of speed, altitude and heading until the target is visually acquired.

Two different models:

1. MiG-21bis 75A Lazur for PVO "Fishbed L"

2. MiG-21bis 75B SAU for VVS "Fishbed N"

DCS module is #2 which doesn't have Lazur equipment.

 

Lazur is pretty cool it can transmit without voice the < | > lights in the radar scope for direction and some other things like the altimeter caret and airspeed marker could be driven remotely to indicate altitudes and speeds. It is for coordinating for example 20 interceptors against 10 targets where voice communication is impractical. Ground support equipment is complex and deployment impractical beyond fixed defensive installations of USSR. Lack of Polyot OI blind landing system is not a problem since ground radar approach support coverage would be excellent.

 

SAU/Polyot-OI version can still do intercept of course but more information is voice and integration is not so automatic with ground machinery. Polyot OI system allows airplanes to land with less robust ground support in poor weather. SAU version still has SOD-57 equipment as tactical transponder for some non-voice ground monitoring. This is for example the group-single-landing-guidance knob on the right wall. I don't think there is any directive datalink like turn left or climb but you are being watched and can update your status and press the ident button.

 

If Lazur verison is also made (similar to L-39C and L-39ZA) it will only be as good as the data streaming into it.
