The F-111F Radar/RWR Still Placeholders

Hi, could you also take a look at the radar report?

https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/GiPQ2tlYP4S7?comment=a7z4mGWpyN4o0UEZ8j6jPqYY

Post updated to include active bug reports, thank you to @CalvinAz for the RWR bug report and @superbuster11 for the Radar bug report. Fingers crossed we’ll end up seeing these changes sooner than later…

I know it’s not relevant to the thread title, but the countermeasure amount between the F-111F and C is bugging me and could use support, considering the previous report a month ago was ignored

That’s not a bug.
In-fact, you reminded me that I should close my other reports.
8x buckets.
30 standard caliber = 240 countermeasures total.
15 = 60 total.
Mix = x amount, in F-111F’s case it’s 180 as it should be.

If you want to be so pedantic, neither are the RWR and radar reports, because that’s not a bug, and at least half of the reports on that website aren’t bug reports, but historical reports or whatever you want to call it.

It isn’t a historical report either.
Until we have control over which flare buckets we use, it’s Gaijin’s choice of which ones to use in aircraft with universal flare buckets.

180 is correct. 4x 15 large, and 4x 30 standard.
240 is correct. 8x 30 standard.

It still isn’t correct because both of them have the same model and use the same countermeasure dispensers, so either both F-111s should have an option between large+normal or normal only OR they should be changed to either of those two options.

F-111 isnt alone on that. A lot of aircraft could use either LCM or CMs but in game they have one or the other. There is certainly times where Id like to pick between the 2.

Right now a visual texture is for the entire aircraft.
There is no countermeasure-only textures right now.
So the suggestion you would make is for them to change how vehicles are textured, and for countermeasures to have texture options that are automatically chosen depending on the choices you make.
Either way, it’s not an issue with the countermeasures itself.

Right now you can put flares in AN/ALE-40’s chaff tubes.

True, but it’s not like the US F-4E has large+normal countermeasures while the F-4F has normal countermeasures only. There is no reason why the F-111s should have a different arrangement.

Yep, that is a strange choice and considering the other difference between the F-111C and F-111F (6 vs 4 Aim-9Ls for example) It seems to just complicate BR placement for them even further.

@BasherBenDawg8
You can copy my radar report if you are interested. I see that moderators are not willing to check my reports despite several requests, since one of them get offended like children for a few sentences about the bug report on A-6E TRAM.

Can you please link me the Flight Manual you attached to your bug report?

You have it in PM, I sent it september 23. ;)

I originally wrote Radar but the whole page refreshed earlier after I wrote it all up and was waiting for your reply for the link. Then I had a brain fart trying to fill it in lol. I’ll fix that now haha

Sidenote: main forums post updated to include updated links.

Already reported internally with that source.

I see, thank you for letting me know. I was under the impression it wasn’t given the old report wasn’t acknowledged or anything haha. Thank you for letting us know, have a great day!
