Wrench 9,846 Posted June 28, 2021 I don't suppose there's anyway to get it work?? Just curious. one could always "fake it" with a green-tinted LLTV, maybe?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+dtmdragon 2,703 Posted June 28, 2021 My understanding is IRST systems don't necessarily display an IR image but show azimuth and altitude (no range) of a detected target on the Radar scope. Can be used to cue the radar range gate to sweep out in a narrow beam towards it from range 0 until lock on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macelena 1,070 Posted June 28, 2021 I'll check it out later, but wasn't there a way to use the targeting pod functions to lock on air contacts already, or did I dream we had TISEO? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+daddyairplanes 10,231 Posted June 28, 2021 funny thing about TISEO, was developed for a2a work but most utilized for a2g work by the Phantom units that had them. would have been for visual target ID in any case not so much for targeting (you had to get the camera on target for it to be effective, not the camera got pilot eyes on target) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrench 9,846 Posted June 28, 2021 Wow! The Range with it's original tileset!!! Haven't seen that in years!!!! (iirc, the TMF Phantoms had a working TISEO in 1stGen games) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+EricJ 4,240 Posted June 28, 2021 I'm kinda surprised that TK didn't implement an IRST on the NA Tomcat. It would have been cool to have that implemented for missions 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+CrazyhorseB34 937 Posted June 29, 2021 You can fake a IRST by mounting a non- lauching IRM in the nose. Just select it like a any other weapon. If you have a HUD it will show up as IRM LOCK icon. Other than that the only other cue you will get is the IRM Audio CUE. On your "Fake ISRT/IRM" you have too extend the seeker range too match the detection range of your IRST. I have done this before. It does work but using your radar is better. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stratos 3,188 Posted July 9, 2021 But IRST is totally passive, while radar is not. Nice method to add it into the game Crazy! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm testing the IRST function with the MiG-29UB. I started from the Crazy method. Basically these are the data of the AA-8. I've created a fake IRST Loadout. I need to increase the IR detection range... Edited July 14, 2021 by Coupi 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
