Hyperion35 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Having TWS and a radar that keeps targets locked before adding more stuff to shoot is not 100% refined. It’s common sense. I would be wary of applying "common sense" to software development, especially with regards to timelines. When there are multiple systems working together, it's not always obvious which pieces can be implemented in order. It's possible, for example, that they had to work out the pitbull logic before they could do the TWS telemetry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel_108 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I for one like that they implement things like the AMRAAM sooner rather than later. Their update cycle is quite quick in my opinion, having an unfinished symbology for two weeks is better than having nothing at all. I do hope, however, that the missing radar modes like LTWS, AZ/EL etc. will be included until Spring 2019. If not, however, it‘s no big deal. I‘m looking forward to every biweekly changelog.

Guest Guest Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Really we need the F-14B for airborne FAC lasing targets, then a flight of Hornets come in, drop their LGBs and RTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the HARM getting in not too far future with the hard and rapid work on the EW and RWR systems. The HARM is very dependent on a robust rwr system in both Self-protect and target of opportunity mode.

Evilfisher Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I would appreciate if the HARM would be on the priority list. I thought anyway that the Hornet is used in 90% for CAS/SEAD and the rest is CAP. We have alot of Air Combat fighters in DCS but only the Su25 is a really SEAD Capable plane, since Years. I think its time to change that now! Cheers Evilfisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Evilfisher well since the retirement of the F14, the USN Hornets and SH are forced pick up the slack and fufill CAP and other A2A roles more than the normally would have in the past. Also some other users only have Single Airframe like the Hornet as thier only Frontline Fighter. Although IM sure as it progresses out of EA we will get there. IRRC wags himself was enthusiastic about the AGm88, so perhaps it is the Priority but more EW and RWR functionality needs to be filled out first before developing the AGM88 modes and other functionalties that interact wit the Hornets avionics. with the recent Hornet MIni update its been stated that EW and RWR is further being worked on as the next immediate step followed by S/A and Auto modes for the Countermeasure suite. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3594690&postcount=73 Edited August 14, 2018 by Kev2go Build: Windows 10 64 bit Pro Case/Tower: Corsair Graphite 760tm ,Asus Strix Z790 Motherboard, Intel Core i7 12700k ,Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 64gb ram (3600 mhz) , (Asus strix oc edition) Nvidia RTX 3080 12gb , Evga g2 850 watt psu, Hardrives ; Samsung 970 EVo, , Samsung evo 860 pro 1 TB SSD, Samsung evo 850 pro 1TB SSD, WD 1TB HDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeroamer Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I'd like it if we got the AGM-65E before we ended up getting the ATFLIR as that can be lased from anything.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
