I tried to find some sekrit dokumints but found nothing
the MiG-29SMT has 4 in the game, too, 2. Rather, they will answer that the balance value
Thats probably the reason. They don’t want a mess nor server going kaput
You’d find them on -34-1s post 87’-89’ when it was introduced to the radar/FCS suite. Thats harder to come by than the normal flight manual. And they were looking for it(with appendix B on it - pw220), thats why F15C has/will have worse kinematics than the F15A despite being the opposite
Older tapes only had 1 target capability for them.

What is this response even supposed to mean? Is it not a bug, already going to be implemented / adjusted or something else.

Will be fixed per the report.

you have a green bug on your face

now it’s bugging me to look at it
According to the DCS F-15C manual the AN/APG-63(V)1 can track 16 and engage 4 targets at the same time, wikipedia says 6 but no citations.
Eey, you guys finally got your little bugs
The AWG-9 is set to a max of 6 targets, so maybe just balance
Its first name is Nota, last name bug.

What is this on the F-15C? F-15J has one of these and I’ve seen in these threads these are supposed to be some kind of radar missile warning sensors?

Lol, what’s the middle name, then?
Doesn’t have one, it got Gaijin’d.

BEsides this bug which has been on for 2 months already of the sparrow exploding once it flies more than 50km despite having more than 30 seconds of life left Community Bug Reporting System
Can someone please review the detection range in HPRF RWS? But not stepanovich. He uses the range given on the soviet manual of the F15 and foreign aircraft handbook despite lots and lots of primary proof which I find egregious and not inline with what was stated a while ago
"rcs": 3.0,
"range": 100000.0,
"rangeMax": 120000.0,
You have this which uses the apg 63 case study and APG-66 data runs for the specific purpose to test the detection ranges. 7th grade math will allow you to find the range of the APG-63(psp). 77 Nautical Miles Detection range for a 2m^2 target.
Forgot I had these
Further more there is flight test runs against T-33s for the purpose of detection range years before the F-15 entered Service. This is from 1974 Design and approach presentation. TF-15A era.
Here the T-33 are detected frontally at a nominal range of ~65 Nautical Miles in a LOOKDOWN SITUATION with reliability and ranges may go up to 87 Nautical miles aswell in a LOODOWN situation. This 65NM range figure is already much much higher than what we have ingame.
Mind you this is 1974, pre IOC. The F-15 entered Service in 1977 and has several hardware changes. IN 1978 one year after IOC the reciever amplifier module was replaced.
And as you can see range got increased ~20% in HPRF. Do the 7th grade math and you’ll find that the got got increased to 78 NM. This is PRE-PSP update, and PSP was a major hardware update in 1979.
Now the question is, what is the RCS of a T-33. Thankfully there’s data for this.
Here you can see the experimental (half scale modela and adjusted for numerical)is 0 dBsm and theoretical 3.3 dBsm. In m^2 the RCS is 1m^2 for experimental and 2.15^m^2 at 8.8 GHz emitter frequency vertical polarization. Take 2m^2, it falls within the range stated OF the first different method.
Both of these are show practically the same range for the radar at by an up to date(1980) F15A/C. Which are ALL F15s ingame. and much more range than what currently is.
Multiple report have been done by my part an others. Here’s the last one where it was just ignored. Community Bug Reporting System.

Do you know what “long range boresight modes” refers to here? Is it just boresight with a higher range than 10 NM?
I was planning to make a report on the Russian radar HMS Radar lock limit (it should not have a 10 km limit), and on the later APG-66/68 versions (boresight limit is raised to 40 NM) if I can find publicly available info.
So maybe reporting more aircraft could shift the opinion

Should be the same 40 N.M.
