Best weapon to destroy SA-5 RADAR (Israel theater)
-
@VpR:
AGM-84E SLAM is a good option in opinion.
Not availble . . .
BTW, manage to learn the DELILAH procedure . . . what a great weapon, keep you busy all the way to the BOOMMMM

f4B is not BMS tool and is not maintained, stop using it.
DB structure has changed over the years and some fields have been re-purposed. You have the BMS editor which is kept up to date with BMS code changes. if you are missing a feature there, let us know.Anyway, this particular byte was never a “real” field, it was the 15th byte in the name field (which was therefor limited to 14 bytes) 4.32 could still read and use it, but it was fixed in 4.33.
the ECM strength value for internal jammers have been moved to the AC DAT file.I checked the DB. Chaff modifier still works in DB. I set 0.99 for F-15A and of course a MiG-29 easily defeated all of my AIM-7Ms.

Of course chaff modifier still works… ECM strength doesn’t.

Which is not an issue becase even today in dat files ALL ECM modifier values are the same. 0 for every AC. I tested and used ECM modifier in DB regardless I do not have any exact info about it. One thing is sure. In FF is you set about 48-50 value even just turning on jammer all ARH lost the lock, the max. valu is 125 as I can remember.
ECM modifier is a way to provide stonger ECM - not only radar’s ECM modifier is counts - but I have neve seen any documentation of explanation about it. As I can remember even RP5 does not mention it.

I have the feeling that I’m in a Douglas Adams book now.
You are quoting me saying one thing, and claim that I’m wrong about another thing I’ve said nothing about.can you please re-read what I actually wrote and only then accuse me of being wrong? please?
and regarding the F4Browse, again, please stop using it, for the sake of data integrity… if any functionality you need is missing from the BMS editor, let us know.

Because in first post you did not clarified what you are talking about. The “ECM modifier” alone is not clear.
Each AC in db has ECM modifier and each radar in DB has ECM modifier. I replied first on radar modifier which exist and still works. You mentioned later ECM strenght modifier which is created for all AC which is meaningless because is the same for all AC and 100% undocumented what it does.
We miss the recalculate option for battalions to count stat values.
Is it possible to create new DB entries or copy any DB entry type? I used F4B in the past because it was far more easier than F4Editor. MY MOD was 100% functional with using only F4B. -

MY MOD was 100% functional with using only F4B.there is not “ECM modifier” for aircraft in the sim, other then “ECM streangth”. Which was a ugly hack put in by someone in 2001. the code actually checked (inside the ECM code) for the value of NAME[14]. i.e the byte value of the 15th char in the name string.
there is the susceptibility for jammer value for radars, but that is something completely different from all the references.And I’ll say it again, stop using F4B, it’s bad practice! you think everything is OK and working, but it might come back and bite you in the ass. it is not maintained, and most certainly does not map the newer BMS flags correctly.
