That is a monstrosity right there!!!

that is why i made a distance lod for it , but as it turns out in game the distance lod may be not needed , even with 4 of this missiles on a aircraft everything is ok no big hit on FPS

here are the AGM-54 , the original 3D model is from Sophocles i reworked the 3D part added new wings and a lot of details as well as new skins

includet are

  • AGM-154A =       1999 , USAF , NATO
  • AGM-154_USN = 1999 ,US NAVY , US Marine Corps
  • AGM-154B =        2001 , US NAVY , US Marine Corps

  • AGM-154C1 =       2016 , US NAVY , US Marine Corps

AGM-154 Pack.7z

the AGM-154A-1 is not includet because i dont know if this weapon has the IR-Seeker or not , all i know is that it is based on the AGM-154C Block II , as soon as i get more info i will release the AGM-154A-1 , my personal view is that it looks like the C but no IR-Seeker

 

from top AGM-154A/B , AGM-154C , AGM-154C1

Thanks for the weapons, they have a lot of detail. It must have taken a lot of research to get all of the small details.

Thank You , you have no idea how long i have to search to get the pictures , manuals or drawings i need 

making the 3d part is not that difficult or time consuming the research is

From The 331Killerbee collections

"Jamming Pods Vietnam War USMC 1965-1972"

-------------------------------------------------------------------

 

With SFNA, TK intruduced Us to two new AI Platfroms. They are ESCORT_JAMMER and EARLY_WARNING. Information applies to both. But, We'll concern
ourselves with ESCORT_JAMMER. But, Radar (Or Target) receiving applies to both.

First, it's how ESCORT_JAMMER is handeled in Game from My Testing (EB-66E over Hanoi in 1971 Timeframe.) and how to reflect that in Game.
Their's Two Important Items of Equipment We need to understand.

    1. Radar Receiver. We have one in game already. It's called the "RWR". "Radar Warning Reciver". The real Monitors for the Equipment listed Below
       Are still to this Day, Classified. We can use the current RWR for User Aircraft Reciving as a "Stand-in" for the time being. But it'll
       take Our Avionics Guru's alittle time to intergrate Jamming RWR with a Aircraft's Radar Suite such as a EA-6A or EA-6B. One that works
       just like the Current RWR will work. Again, Symbology and types of Monitors will be hard information to come by.

From the Stock EA-6B Data.ini in SFNA:

       [DetectSystem]
       Name=APQ-156
       RadarType=SURFACE_SEARCH

       VisualBlindArc=5,6,7
       VisualRestrictedArc=4L,8L
       MaxVisibleDistance=11000.0
       HasRWR=TRUE
       RWRMinFreq=2.0
       RWRMaxFreq=18.0
       RWRCanDetectCW=TRUE

           The Radar Receivers listed below are are Looking for that Band of Freq. It's calling out. If it's a Multi- Band Platform, You have to 
       Make a Receiver in Your Platform (Airframe or Pod) to reflect that. That's to receive the Siginal.

    2. Jamming Pods. Jamming Pods Jam the Signal the Recivers are looking for. The Entries for Jamming Pods is the Freq. that needs to be defeated.
       ALL Jamming Pods in Game are handled as "Omni-directional". Think of it as having an invisible Circle around the "Users" Aircraft. To defeat
       The GCR, via Receiver Monitor, One must manuver the Aircraft over towards the Threat and let the Pod do it's work. You know You are Sucessful
       if the Monitor You are using shows the Threat. But the Threat stops blinking and the warning sound goes out. You'll still see the Threat.
       It's just not "Painting" You. Or Locking on to You. Now that's for You and Your "User" Aircraft in Game. As, You are flying. In the Case
       Of RECON Jamming Pods, Track Breakers. They can Track You. They just can't lock You up. 

       A-I doesen't handle it that way. A-I can't use Pods. Like a "User" Aircraft. A-I hadles it like TK intended. Again, Let's 
       look at the Stock EA-6B Data.ini..... The Pod is listed as a "Componet" of the Airframe. And that's how A-I uses them in Game..

       [Fuselage]

       SystemName[007]=ALQ99
       SystemName[008]=DecoyDispenser1
       SystemName[009]=DecoyDispenser2 


       [ALQ99]
       SystemType=ECM_JAMMER
       JammerType=NOISE_JAMMER
       JammerStrength=120.0
       MinFreq=1.0
       MaxFreq=20.0
       CanJamCW=TRUE

       [DecoyDispenser1]
       SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
       EjectPosition= 0.0,-6.79,-0.19
       EjectVelocity=0.00,0.00,-10.00NumChaff=30
       NumFlare=0

       [DecoyDispenser2]
       SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER
       EjectPosition= 0.0,-6.96-0.18
       EjectVelocity=0.00,0.00,-10.00
       NumChaff=0
       NumFlare=30

In the Case of RECON Jamming Pods, Track Breakers. They can Track You. They just can't lock You up. 

EW and RECON Aircraft work as Single or Pair in support of a Strike Package. Never more than 12
Aircraft deployed and as small a "Dets" as 4 Aircraft on Combat or CV Operations.

From the mid-1950s the Marines’ reconnaissance and Electronic Warfare (EW) capability was found in three Composite squadrons, VMCJ-1, VMCJ-2 and VMCJ-3. 
One was assigned to each Marine Aircraft Wing and, at the start of the Vietnam War, they were equipped with a mix of photo (RF-8A Crusader) 
and EW (EF-10B Skyknight) aircraft.

In April 17,1965, VMCJ-1 Deployed to Da Nang AB, RVN. with a Det of 6 EF-10B and 6 RF-8A. October 1966 EA-6A and RF-4B started being rotated in Country.
From the start, The EF-10B's had sucess. But there were limitations. They weren't Omni-directional. So, they had to point their Aircraft at Ground
Radars, then become Chaff bombers blinding Enemy GCR's and also, The EF-10B's still retained the "Whales" Guns. The others were the fact that the 
EF-10's didn't have IFR capability. Most all missions were flown with a Drop Tank and a ALE-32 Pod. Age played a factor. The EF-10 wings could
only handle so many G's in Turns. among others.

In 1967 a number of EF-10Bs beginning with Buno 124620 underwent a modification program at North Island under AFC 199 that upgraded the communications suite 
and added a wideband fire control threat receiver and defensive ECM equipment. The first of these aircraft nicknamed “Super Whales” were deployed to VMCJ-1 
at Danang in February 1968.

The last EF-10B departed Danang for CONUS in October 1969 and all the remaining aircraft were retired to the desert storage facility at
 Davis Monthan AFB in 1970.

VMCJ-1 introduced the EA-6A to Da Nang in October 1966 and immediately started supplementing its EF-10s, which, due to demand, remained in-theatre until 1969. 
With little time to acclimate, the ‘Electric Intruder’ went right into the breech, as operations were quick from the start. On the night of 2/3 December 1966 
the squadron put an unprecedented nine jamming aircraft into the air (six EF-10Bs and three EA-6As) to support major U.S. Navy strikes. By January 1967 
it had four EA-6As at Da Nang, and they were heavily involved over North Vietnam as the most capable EW platform in-theatre.

Twenty-seven EA-6A's were produced in three lots. The first six beginning with BuNo. 147865 were converted from A-6A fleet bombers. 
"Methuselah", BuNo 147865, was one of the longest flying "Electric Intruders". The next six (148615) were converted from A-6A airframes 
while on the production line. The final fifteen (156979-993) were built by Grumman as EA-6A's from the keel up.

For its weapon system the EA-6A was initially equipped with the ALQ-31 pod, a long, odd-looking contraption that contained a pair of ALT-6B jammers. 
It uses a ram air turbine to supply its own power and ALQ-53 in Pods as is housed in it's Tail Farring

This was soon followed by the ALQ-76 pod, which featured a Ram Air Turbine (RAT) that spun in the air stream to provide power for four transmitters, 
each of which had an independently steered directional antenna. The system was highly sophisticated for the era, as most jamming systems 
(such as those carried by the USAF’s EB-66B) were omni-directional, transmitting their jamming signal in a 360-degree fashion and not focusing it 
directionally at the threat radar as the EF-10B's.

This system allowed the EA-6A to potentially carry up to 20 high-powered directional jammers, giving the aircraft the widest frequency coverage 
of any electronic attack platform in-theatre. The ALQ-76’s basic design set the standard for the later ALQ-99 system used in the EA-6B.

In practice the aircraft carried three ALQ-76s, a pair of fuel tanks and ALE-32 chaff pods on its outboard wing stations. The EA-6A also used an internal 
VHF-band ALQ-55 communications jammer that could complicate and confuse voice links between North Vietnamese fighter pilots and their ground control intercept 
(GCI) stations, but only when crews were given permission to use it.

The EA-6A was easily the most capable EW aircraft of the entire war, proving much more capable than the EF-10B it replaced, as well as being much more survivable than the 
USAF EB-66 or U.S. Navy EKA-3B jammers. Even when the latter service introduced the EA-6B in 1972, the Marines’ ‘Electric Intruder’ still possessed roughly 30 per cent greater 
frequency range than the Standard-version Prowler, although the latter’s developmental plan would take care of that issue in short fashion. The EA-6B’s ALQ-99 jamming pods 
were also capable of generating a significantly higher amount of  radiated power than the ALQ-76s carried by the A-model.

The AN/ALQ-99 has a maximum power output of 10.8 kW in its older versions and of 6.8 kW in its newer versions. It uses a ram air turbine to supply its own power.

The AN/ALQ-99 is capable of jamming frequencies from 64 MHz (4.68 m) to 20 GHz (1.5 cm). Jamming frequency ranges are set forth in 10 bands:

Band 1: 64–150 MHz (4.68–2.00 m)
Band 2: 150–270 MHz (2.00–1.11 m)
Band 3: 270–500 MHz (1.11–0.60 m)
Band 4: 0.5–1 GHz (59.96–29.98 cm)
Band 5/6: 1–2.5 GHz (29.98–11.99 cm)
Band 7: 2.5–4 GHz (11.99–7.49 cm)
Band 8: 4–7.8 GHz (7.49–3.84 cm)
Band 9: 7.8–11 GHz (3.84–2.73 cm)
Band 10: 11–20 GHz (2.73–1.50 cm)

(Note to Moddlers: If you've built a AN/ALQ-99, You've built a AN/ALQ-76. Solid state vs. Vacuum Tube)

The RF-4B was first delivered to VMCJ-1 at Danang, RVN In October 1966. During the Southeast Asia 
conflict, three RF-4Bs were lost to ground fire and one was destroyed in an operational accident.

An ALQ-126 deceptive electronic countermeasures package was installed Internally. and could navigate a 
hight threat enviroment alone. But since the on set of 1965, US policy was one photo Bird, One Fighter Escort.
RF-8's, USAF F-101's and RF-4C's and their Escorts wree suffering heavy losses.

From the very beginning of the RF-4B's introduction in Country, The Marine Corps had anticipted this from the RF-8's. 
They had teamed up with the Sanders Corp. to develop the AN/ALQ-81-83's. They were S/C-Band Pod-Mounted Track-Breakers
that operated in the S Band 2 to 4 gigahertz (GHz) in the 81. the 83 operated in the S Band 2 to 4 gigahertz (GHz). 

Starting in Oct. of 65', VMCJ-1 ran a pair of them. One ALQ-81, One ALQ-83 on the other. Later, on "Low Level"
Photo Runs, they would mount two Pairs. This made no need for Marine RF-4B's to have Escorts. The Bee Line
"SURE" program upgrade of the RF-4B in 1977 ended any need for external Pods for the RF-4B for the rest of it's
service life. The ALQ-81 and 83 were the most "Secretive" Jamming Pods ever used in the Vietnam Conflict.
