Wings Over Vietnam Techniques and Skillz
typo upyr replied to komemiute's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
ARMS (all anti radar missles) in this era go against our basic insticts and desires as simmers to have a lock. If you are in an aircraft with out a RWR and you fire in the general direction of a radar it will automatically home in and possibly kill it. The standards fly in an arc which makes them useless against anything with in Shrike range- unless you have the simplified visual targeting and display modes. So if you know there is an air base or other target area with in Standard range just fire and hope it its something. With Shrikes they will still home in if you shoot in the general area but I wait until a SAM launches and point my noise at an angle for the Shrike loft. In real life ARMS were to stupid to figure out the range of a target as recent as operation Desert Storm. This was the reason they developed the Wild Weasel. This is the reason I would like to see some proper wild weasels and ElINT in the game. The EWO in the back who determined what radars were around the plane and their range with audio tones and oscilloscopes. We wouldn't be concerned with any of that as we don't have the back seat so we could simulate both by adding a new option to the tactical menu like- nearest radar and have Red Crown or compass call give as range and berrings and if we are in a WW then we have the targeting mode change to simulate the EWO giving us the target. -

What does this have to do with Arms? this is how you lock up an AIM-7 Sparrow. -
http://simhq.com/_air3/air_113a.html I read this and for the most part I would have to say I would disagree with what he is saying. I believe that the way to sell a chopper sim would be to combine it with a tank sim. Though Black shark looks like it will be awsome.

I'm thinkingyour right also the RNZAF has huds on the A-4's they use today and the German F-4F ICE Phantom is also quite modern so you may need to put a time limit to keep it acurate but adding a hud to an F-4 or A-4 is not insane just not correct for the Vietnam Era. -

From what I understand ARM's should produces some sort of a tone indicating what type of radar they locked on. -

Actualy From my understanding one of the Reason the North invaded in 1975 is they felt Ford would not launch line backer III so the scenerio is if Watergate not happened, Nixon would have served out his term leaving the GOP tiket open to a Ford Reagan battle and the North Vietnamese would have been watching to figure out if we would back up the south or not if they resumed the war. Hwey if we can't kid each other than who can we kid? -
