It wont find targets properly enough for me to latch the radar onto them, it wont update them fast enough to give a clear picture of whats going on and even when i swtich the radar to a narrow mode it just wont locate the targets within the FoV of the radar properly.

In this situation, if i had tried to join that furball, it would have been pure WVR combat with the no radar

Like in contrast, this was too much effort and micro managing to make it work, but this is what it should be like all the time but with a fraction of the effort

Lmao the F-14 rates better than the Viper with a vastly lower radius. I’ve beat F-16As in the F-14A.

9529

I agree. However, in a low speed fight, the F-14 keeps it’s energy and flight performance better than the EFT. Even though it’s a big aircraft, you can still climb over the EFTs nose and jink. With the Cobra button, that becomes impossible. The EFT will put it’s nose wherever it wants, and since the F-14 can’t take any damage whatsoever, (for no reason it way very durable irl) you lose flight control or something and go down easily.

9530

Also, because they don’t simulate the wingsweep very well (or at all) the F-14 is underestimated a lot of the time. And the graphs become unusable above 50 wing sweep. So it’s not factoring the speed bleed you get with the wings tucked in or the high speed pull at all.

9531

Reported the lack of DASS missile escape commands/symbology. EFT should direct you into a notch, and can even generate a multi-stage escape manoeuvre with timings between turns.

You should get;

  • A directional arrow guiding you into the “notch” with the required G loading.
  • A boxed overlay on the HUD marking the safe zone
  • Voice-prompted commands indicating the escape vector

Oof, this would be REALY cool, Snail pls, gib

Also, is it an Suggestion or an Fact that its missing?
(Asking for my List If its Accepted/Suggestion) :))

9533

high chance of us actualy getting that, but would be cool

9534

Suggestion, as nothing like that currently exists.

while this would be really cool I have a feeling it wont be that good in game, I can hope but we would have to see how gaijin does it if they do it

9536

Yee of little faith haha, I got the idea from playing far too much Nuclear Option.

9537

Would be nice to know if I’m notching properly I suppose… other than that it just sets us up well for more MAWS functionality. Like when BRITECLOUD and TRD’s rock up we might not even need stealth to remain competitive given the number and volume and quality of defensive aids available

9538

yeah I had a feeling lol, we can always hope it will be as good as nuclear option (tbf notching in that game is made way easier with the fact most planes have built in jammers)

9539

Sad :( was hoping for Accepted

9540

My method of getting new stuff is incremental suggestions that eventually lead us to full Sensor Fusion. Asking for the full thing is unattainable in a single patch, so piece by piece we will get there.

sadly true, im not even fully aware of how much of the EFTs sensor package we are missing but from what I have heard it seems to be a lot

9542

Yeah a few of my comments have been hidden for using the S word. I guess that’s the new norm. gotta polish every comment you say

9543

Its mostly all there, the main missing pieces are the TRD and ECM (Integrated Jammers & BriteCloud Decoys).

The sensors we do have are just missing features for the most part. But thats true of similar systems in game.

Gunjob, did you actually made the Report for Striker II, or just Planned?
