Sergeant_Hamlet Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 In the last portion of Wags's video, the donor-only tracks appear as a whole HAFU symbol. If those contacts are not currently detected by the ownship, shouldn't they only appear as the lower-half of the HAFU? Or is there something I don't understand about how those files work in TWS?

falcon_120 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Let me use the thread to also put there another question for those on the knowledge about TWS. -Can we use the the TDC outside of the tactical region to select betweeen RWS/TWS/VS? -While in TWS can we use the TDC to change azimuth and bar setting or select the AUTO mode?

Just for clarification, are you asking what happens if you slew the TDC over the DDI labels for bar, azimuth and radar mode and press it while in TWS? (I dont know the answer, just wondering if that is the question) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I dont know the answer, just wondering if that is the question) Yes, but let me explain better. 1-I want know if from RWS we can go TWS by placing the cursor over RWS and then selecting between options, in the same manner that we do to change bar or azimuth setting in RWS. 2-Once in TWS does this functionality holds true? Or are we force then to use RMFD PB presses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks They appear as a SURV(eillance) hostile track symbol, which is smaller than the onboard+offboard HAFU. Check out wags' link16 video from earlier this year, he goes into the symbology there.

If those contacts are not currently detected by the ownship, shouldn't they only appear as the lower-half of the HAFU? Or is there something I don't understand about how those files work in TWS? ThanksSURV tracks (from AWACS) appear as a smaller, full HAFU symbol. F/F tracks (from friendly fighters) appear to as a full-size bottom-only HAFU. If a track is donated by both SURV and F/F, it keeps the SURV symbology, IIRC. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

kaoqumba Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 How many targets can TWS attack at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jak525 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 How many targets can TWS attack at the same time? 10 is the maximum amount of regular trackfiles, so, 10. 10 is also the maximum AMRAAM count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceandar Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 How many targets can TWS attack at the same time?You mean shoot simultaneously? Only two as demonstrated in Matts video Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power. - Lao Tze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robgraham Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 You mean shoot simultaneously? Only two as demonstrated in Matts video yes he means you can have 10 missiles out simultaneously which even Matt comments on twice in the video, first when he says how many targets can be tracked and launched on at the start and then when he explains at the end that you can lock pri/sec, launch, launch, pri/sec, launch, launch, etc so long as you keep them all within the bar scans up to 10 missiles and 10 targets. It's just that you can only have a Primary and Secondary selected for actual targeting information at any time. i7 13700k, 64gb DDR5, Warthog HOTAS, HP Reverb G2 VR, win 11, RTX 3070 TGW Dedicated Server Admin, Australian PVE/PVP gameplay.

Jak525 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Only one target can be shot at simultaneously. You can't shoot the AMRAAM at the DT2 - you have to make it the L&S first. Like Rob said, it's just to get targeting information (Launch Acceptable Region) on another target, see the 'X' overlayed on the HUD, and also be able to quickly swap it for the L&S.
