Radar symbology

[joyrider]

I am a newbie to WOE and I am playing the game just out of the box without any modding. Can anyone point me to a resource for explanation of the radar symbology? I can't find any reference to it in the skimpy online manual. Also some help on the RWR would be appreciated.

Very long, and old, StrikeFighters radar and weapons tutorial here, at the simhq ~> http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_061a.html

 

 

This was written by Andy Bush, a real F4 pilot, but before the newer WoE sim. WoE has the new superjetfighter "huds" so its not in this tutorial, but the older classic "real" radars displays are covered in depth. I don't have the WoE yet so others may help you.

 

...no paper manual in WoE...?

Thanks LL for the quick reply. That's a start for me anyways.

 

>..no paper manual in WoE...?

 

Yup that the norm these days.

There's a very nicely-written and informative thread on this very subject, by Streakeagle. And best of all, you'll find it here, in OUR own (Combat Ace's) SF/Wov/WoE knowledge base.

Fubar512, that's a very good article. Still there are some radar symbols in the F15 radar that was not explained in the article. Is there further reading elsewhere?

Perhaps Streakeagle might add to it, explaining how to use TWS and ACM mode on the F-15's radar.

I started work on an F-15 tutorial... but I am more focused on the F-4 right now. I want to finish the cockpits I started and then get back to finishing the new F-4B FM.

 

The thread here was locked, but I added a basic F-15 radar post at TW:
