Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Was it mentioned anywhere in release notes saying that we can see AWACS and Lot 20 Hornets on the TAD? Noticed that they show up now...

Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) any pic? I was so surprised that I didn’t think to cap one but I’ll try tomorrow... FWIW though, we only had four of us in Warthogs on the server tonight along with AI Tankers and the AWACS which orbits over the Elgin MOA at 31,000, and we all saw an aircraft icon on our TADs with a “31” under it as we were flying north up the Sally Corridor...

Silver_Dragon Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) I have test them.... has correct, I was put some US aircrafts on the mission editor arround my A-10C and see some F-16/F-18Cs icons, similarly to the F/A-18C SA page. Not show helos, vehicles or ships, av-8b, s-3 or transport aircrafts. Edited April 26, 2019 by Silver_Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 But are you seeing AI Lot 20 Hornets or the original Hornets? Been able to see 15s, 16s and old 18s for some time. The new 18s never used to show. How about the AWACS?

Edit: Other point, now show the enemy contacts. :) I put some enemy A-10, Su-27 and Mig-29s, that appears as diamond and change to triangles, show radar (SOI?) lines if friendly aircrats lock on them.

Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 So we have at least a rudimentary gateway system taking shape? Now to test if Lot 20 Hornets can get SPIs from Warthogs... Hmmm...

Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 What are those allied aircraft? Hogs? Hornets? Other?

Silver_Dragon Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) F/A-18C legacy and F/A-18C lot 20s. The left flight has F-16C Blk 52d on CAP and a B-1B Edited April 26, 2019 by Silver_Dragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Ok, next question: Can human-flown Hornets see SPI from human-flown Hogs? This would be epic for CAS if you have a FAC(A) in an A-10 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] http://www.476vfightergroup.com/content.php High Quality Aviation Photography For Personal Enjoyment And Editorial Use. www.crosswindimages.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fri13 Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 That is cool how the datalink system has come alive even when we don't know exact things. But that is how it is suppose to be, no need to know secret functions from IFF or datalinks, as long you know what it should just do. Now waiting to see same for Su-27S datalink with same secret update this A-10C got! i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

Sierra99 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 This isn’t strictly an A-10 TAD question but has anyone tried using an AI F-15/16 as a SA donor?

QuiGon Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Is this even realistic? I thought the A-10C is using SADL to send/recieve SPIs and none of the other aircraft types supports SADL afaik?

Ramsay Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Is this even realistic? I thought the A-10C is using SADL to send/recieve SPIs and none of the other aircraft types supports SADL afaik? AWACS is acting as a gateway (bridge) between SADL and Link-16 aircraft. Some F-16C are SADL capable but I'm not sure they have the tech to act as a gateway (network bridge). https://www.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/126423/a-10s-get-digital-makeover/ i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySanchez Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 A-10C can see everything any Link16 player can see, as long as their is a gateway and the desired donors are added to the donor list. ED left out 75% of the real TAD capabilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
