F-16 RNoAF // RWR bug

[B3rNO]

What is wrong with RWR of F-16 RNoAF, why doesn’t it detect Naval Threats?
Is that a known bug, or we doing something wrong?

I have to check again but if it is like the regular RWR (ALR56? I do not remember) there is no “naval mode”.

That would be very strange considering that F-16 RNoAF is able to carry anti-ship missiles like AGM-119 Penguin.

I am not saying that it can’t detect radar on ship. Jist that there is no called "Naval"mode … Means that they are associated to any other land based radar. Now … What ship? What radar type? Are they working in the band range of this RWR ?

Again, I have to check

[Dee-Jay]

UNKNOWN mode has been activated ?

[B3rNO]

@Dee-Jay:

UNKNOWN mode has been activated ?

Confirm. Still no spikes.

Doesn’t Norway have terma and ATD?

[B3rNO]

Now I’m confused a little bit.

Compare that RWR with one from video….

[Dee-Jay]

Which ship ot was?

[B3rNO]

Kuznetsov and Kirov.

[Dee-Jay]

@B3rNO:

Kuznetsov and Kirov.

SAN6 (?) … equivalent to SA-10 => No or almost no RWR warnings.

EDIT: Nope … Kirov => SAN8 Kuz => SAN9

However … might be out of band. As said a lot of time … RWR is not a perfect tool.

SAN8 and SAN9 works as S-300 thats obvious, nevertheless you can see SA-10 spikes on RWR, right?
F-16 RNoAF is not able to spot Kuznetsov and Kirov spikes while blk52 can see them clearly:

Same mission - blk52

Okay I’ve checked it … For some reasons those ship are out of ALR69’s library/band range.
EDIT: I must say that I do even not know how to power up the model of RWR (do not know where is the hotspot?) … so … might be a bug. (?)

@Red:

Yes, same as Belgium, but ATD is not (yet?) modeled in BMS for now.

So, all blocks who’re using “Raytheon(litton) AN/ALR-69(v)” have no Naval Spikes from that ships:

Blk15 A
Blk 15 B
BLK 25
Blk 30
Blk 32
MLU RDAF
MLU RNIAF
MLU RNoAF
KF-16C Blk 32
Blk 52+ EAF

I thought it was supposed to be this quiet in the Danish MLU, but I guess not. Also wondered why I got radar spikes from airbases on the RWR flying the BLK 15 B model, but nothing in the MLU. The BLK 15 does have a different pit and not the same RWR. Hope this “bug” will be corrected in any future update on the models mentioned.

[Dee-Jay]

Guys … please … apologies. I am deeply confused and sorry for all that chit chat …

Slap me :oops:

@NIL:

… yes, it will. I’ve fixed it a month ago but I did not remember it. :nosep:

[Arty]

So its not fixed in 4.33.4 right? Or it is and u forgot it was fixed?

I do not think it is included in 3.33.4

That said … It doesn’t work either on my btest version. So I will have to take a deeper look.
