WINGEDHUSSAR Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 I have EricJ's F/A-18E and while playing with animations, noticed a "probe" deploy from the bottom of the aircraft and is towed during flight. what is it? is it some kind of antenna/sensor or type of RAT (Ram Air Turbine)? I'd take a screenshot but for some reason i can't, i always get a blank image. Quote
maverickvf142 Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 It's the AN/ALE-55 Fiber-Optic Towed Decoy. Quote
TeargasHorse Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Wow, that's cool, does it work for a decoy in game? Quote
+Stratos Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Wow, that's cool, does it work for a decoy in game? Don't think so, is just eye candy I think. In this book, the author talk a lot about it's use in real combat, recommended reading. Quote
