Unsolved Barlock RADAR...but where/why??
-
I flew again, and this time an SA-5 was appearing in the sea (no land visible at the point). Source was HTS.
I fired off two HARMs, but they just lofted and disappeared. No impact at the point was noted, so not sure where they went. Need to catch ACMI and see if it shows what happened.

On HTS?? PGM then?

PGM seems to correlate with HTS. I did check this.

What PGM was indicated in your HTS for that spot? 5, 4, 3, 2, 1? -

Just small note, the SA-5B (S-200 Vega) never had the P-37 (Bar Lock) radar.
Different S-200 variants and their radars.
I’m working on the English version of the S-200 system currently.

I indeed know about it. Bar Lock is the legacy EWR in Falcon4 DB, and I couldn’t change it simply because I am lacking a Tall King (or Back Net) 3D model. So we keep the existing one, the only one we have.
As simple as that. -

I’m seeing some weird behavior with the HTS, too. It seems the targets are moving. I did get some ACMI last night, and aside from my aircraft, no other units appeared to exist in the world.

5 is the less reliable assessment of the HTS displayed result, which moves until you get PGM1. Little look at the manual too probably.

@Tiger-0
Since there is no video showing your issue, I imagine that it is simply the position that is updated and progressively adjusted by HTS triangulation. -

Since there is no video showing your issue, I imagine that it is simply the position that is updated and progressively adjusted by HTS triangulation.There is another compounding issue… in trying to find these things, I was doing something I don’t normally do…locking up early and a LONG way away… this prevents position updates, apparently.
When I unlocked the target, it jumped about a second or two later as it got updated.
PGM was 1 (afterwards).
There it is! Base RADAR…

… again … not a perfect tool.
