That’s just the tip of the Iceberg, so far we have no implementation of the “Blue Forces Tracker” on ANY JHMCS VARIANT AKA most NATO aircraft will forever be incomplete.
Funny thing is, the community has provided tons of information, Master’s Projects, Evaluation Reports, official information from the manufacturer’s website and many more to prove these capabilities, yet surprisingly the reports have been quietly ignored for quite the time.
And even the more recent additions such as the TARGO II / JHMCS II for aircraft such as the Kfir C.10 Block 60 or F-16AM still lack the functions mentioned before.
I don’t know how much longer they’re planning to make us wait for an accurate representation of HMD’s
just comind here to check, is it just me or locking a target with an IRST simply turns off the GUI screen ? I’ll have someone showing up dead center, the moment I lock the screen turns empty. Extremely practical on a mig-23 with no actual screen lmao
The German fighter “Ta 152 H-1” has its Turn & Slip Indicator (also known as “turn coordinator”, specifically the “Inclinometer” part ) behave in erratic, unrealistic ways.
> Expected behaviour:
The Inclinometer should display how coordinated the plane is flying at every moment in a continuous manner. When rudder is properly aligned with the direction of travel, it should be centered. Due to various left-turning tendencies and adverse yaw, it should leave its centered state when applying power, reducing power or turning/pitching and simply when inputting rudder.
> What actually happens:
The inclinometer “stutters” for lack of a better term and is unable to showcase minor deviations, instead jumping between a few fixed positions rapidly. It appears to lack ‘continuity’. This has a significant effect in the ability to fly coordinated either while turning or simply in straight flight.
> Steps to reproduce:
Pick Full-real Controls (ergo: AutoTrim MUST not be on. Realistic and Simplified controls likely do not showcase the error).
Pick Ta 152 H-1 as aircraft
Enter either: Custom Battles, Test Flight or a live ARB or SB EC match with the appropriate control scheme. AB’s mandatory “Simplified” scheme does not permit proper reproduction.
Once in level flight, proceed with the following (do NOT input any rudder unless stated):
4.1 Throttle to 0%, observe inclinometer
4.2 Throttle to 110%, observe inclinometer
4.3 Throttle to 100%, observe inclinometer
4.4 Roll left and pull up to bank left-hand, observe inclinometer
4.5 Roll right and pull up to bank right-hand, observe inclinometer
4.6 Resume level flight
4.7 With a violent motion, pitch down and keep an eye on inclinometer
4.8 Resume level flight
4.9 With a violent motion, pitch up and keep an eye on inclinometer
4.10 Resume level flight
4.11 Input gradual left rudder and keep an eye on inclinometer
4.12 input gradual right rudder and keep an eye on inclinometer
This should adequately demonstrate faulty inclinometer behaviour.
To observe expected behaviour, I recommend using the Bf 109 F-4 and repeating steps 1 to 4.12. Other aircraft can also demonstrate it adequately.
