Not really....it has to do with that particular aircraft's pseudo-lifting body fuselage design, and a desire to funnel air in such a way as to assist in the dissipation of hot exhaust gasses (IR signature reduction).

A real "BS" degree, as I didn't even stay to complete my freshman year at Rutgers My boss, however, is a PHD who's lectured at Cambridge, worked at Los Alamos, and has worked on a few aerospace projects with (and for) Northrop-Grumman.

tell me about your degree in Physics. What it saw was the wake turbulance coming off the area between the stabilators. the aircraft has a frontal RCS smaller than a hummingbird. and this was verified on radars far more powerful, and on displays with far more resolution, than what you would have out in the field.

Yes i'm sure, the F-117 was essentially 1978 technology. And it wasn't "seen" by the SA-3's radar. Its wake turbulance was,

I hit the escape key to end the video....and the flight Yes I am. Some sound effects are from packs I released four or five years ago, and a few of them, I mixed recently.

Well, I'm pretty certain no one's going to jump out and verify this but the F-22 and Superbug's AESA system reportedly uses a highly efficiant array, frequency hopping, and pulse compression. And BTW, it's supposedly not pulse-Doppler. but a frequency-modulated continuous-wave system. But, who knows for sure?

JSF, I believe that I'd done that several years ago, in my megapack...

Mainly because the Firecan model is a WIP, and as such, it's not mine to give away. The existing model is still quite crude.

I've found that the best compromise, is to use realistic altitude and engagement distance values for the various AAA guns (My KS-30s reach up to 33,000 feet!). This results in the "layered" defenses discussed earlier. And yes, all weps from 57MM and up are networked as "AAA", along with the Firecan. The Firecan itself is set up as "Static-AAA", and given an availabilty value of "Very_Rare". This spreads them around, with an average of one per every 30-50 square kilometers.

About once I year, I post some varient of essentially the same video. This should dispel all doubts as to the intensity and accuracy of radar-directed flak. WoV.wmv

I found that networking the AAA is enough, and have no need nor any desire to ramp up warhead potentials to ridiculously unrealistic values. Also, I set the fusing distance for my SA-2s to 100 meters...

I see this one. Think it's too late to jink?

The reason you're not getting historical levels of flak, is probably due to the fact that the NVA 37 and 57 mm AA guns in your installs do not have "time fuzed" checked in their gun-data entries.

AESA can be simulted quite easily, by changing the radar's operating band, and the unit's scan limits. What he asked for is true TWS capability. Whether or not that's what he intended to ask, is anyone's guess

"the ones that oposed to pasive radars in aircraft" As Zmatt stated, there is no such thing as passive radar. If a unit emits energy, (whether it's sonar, radar, or lidar) it's considered active. TWS (Track While Scan) is modeled in aircraft that come equipped with that feature, but only one target at a time can be acquired & tracked...and that's a limitation of the series. The series was originally intended to model aircraft from the 1950s through the early 70s, TWS was added when TW introduced the F-15A in WoE. That being said, AHMs (Active Homing Missiles) like the AIM-54, AIM-120, or R-77, only require manual target acquistion until just after launch, and then you can select additional targets for your remaining AHMs.

What do you mean by "active radars"? On aircraft or ground objects? Since the developer strives for realism, aircraft and ground objects that are radar equipeed in RL, have radar capabilities in-game.

Yes, at least in SF2. The necessary freq statements are in place in SF1/WoV/WoE/WoI with the 10-08 patch, but I'm not sure if they're working in those titles

Fast Cargo made a low-poly SON-9A Firecan model, and I've just sent the template out to one of our premiere texture specialists, so we'll have it ingame soon. Just tried the model, and noticed an improvement in AAA accuracy whenever it's present.

Nio offense, but I don't find that important at all, dead is dead as far as I'm concerned.

Killerbee and I played with this over three years ago, and came up with radar-directed flak, by networking the 57-85-100-130MM AAA guns, and introducing a Firecan radar van into the series. The flak was accurate enough so as to make excursions over Hanoi or Haiphing quite interesting.
