I almost said that’s why I specified it should be an option, but I apparently didn’t. whoops.
Yeah, it should be an option. In sim sure it can be more helpful sometimes (although i’d personally still prefer all my contacts stabilised to the horizon instead of the airframe).
How would elevation look like on a 2d digital rwr screen? At least for rwrs like spo 15, it’s easy to see how the elevation detection works, but for digital rwr? how would that work?
No idea IRL, but it would be simple to add a small arrow above or below the RWR contact to denote relative position.
it gives you an arrow for up or down on the RWR screen
saw a picture somewhere iam trying to find it
That’s not what the arrows mean. IIRC they indicate targets which you are jamming and targets which are trying to jam you.
Another way to give elevation information, alright I don’t think it’s a thing IRL, but is pretty understandable, is taking inspiration from space games, like Elite dangerous
In this case, there’s a bunch of targets below the vehicle
Alternatively data could be fed to the HMD, for better awareness
Yes
The RN livery is pretty cool.
If only…
True but I mean more the UI element. The HMD unfortunately serves no purpose in 3rd person.
Dare we even ask where this image came from
the german wikipedia page for the DASS
I really wish that display included the radar contacts in-game…
looks like they fixed IRST working with AMRAAM(?)
They did, doesn’t work on Su-30 either…
Brilliant! the one thing that could make an AMRAAM reliably hit without being notched before you even launch it is gone.
Update: looks like they’ve removed it ENTIRELY which means we’re back to the days where the radar auto-swaps to IRST and bars you from launching AMRAAM. I just spent 15 seconds straight trying to launch in a look-down scenario.
Really? I can’t test this myself since I have the German EFT, but that’s bad then, that bug is way too annoying…
