I'm working on a 1983 version of the F-15A, which has TWS ( there was a TWS mode pre-MSIP, I re-checked my sources, dont know the exact time when it was available but 83/84 is a good estimate )
I've also added IFF function to normal search mode, IFF isnt limited to TWS on the real thing.
My F-15A avionics enhancement will be updated too.
The IFF function in the game is a 100% method, it sorts contacts into friendly and enemy symbols.
From my F-15A (83) mod
escort mission, the circle left low on the screen is a friendly F-4 bomber flight.. the diamonds near the top are mig-23 and 17 flights .. enemy
same scenario in TWS, the F-4 bomber flight is outside the TWS scan volume (60° scan), not visible anymore, I have selected the mig-23 flight - center up - and right low corner are my #3 and 4 heading for the mig 17's ... migs are rectangles and friendlies are dots
the exact type of the enemy aircraft was found out by locking them and using the radar target keyboard command , kinda
a "lite" enemy IFF interrogator
