RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
I don,t doubt the verbosity of your statement SUBS.And to RagnarDa my point was how can we deduce if you can or can,t….Not that I know for sure one way or the other.Because in the article the author puts emphasis on the statement “guided by the HOST platform”.But the missile as we know receives update data from a datalink with the launching A/C.If in turn this data comes from a buddy A/C would not the data be the same.I agree yes.But the data would not be timely or as accurately updated to the track file would be my concern.But what would be the point if you were not in position to fire and get a kill.And would you not have better results with your own data from TWS mode.If the goal was simply to fire undetected?After all that is the whole point of using TWS .

RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
I don’t understand what you mean. If i have a datalinked target my system knows where the target is, how is that different from target information provided from my own radar? If the AMRAAM would be guided through radar as the Sparrow that would be a different story (but then maybe one could set the Sparrow to follow the radar reflections by your buddys radar). I believe the Su-25T’s employ a similar tactic with their Shkval’s and Vihkr’s…
Chk here on how the missile works.It is great article.Then you will be able to deduce it,s capabilities better than I can.

RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
Oh…sry.I meant you will be able to record for MORE than 60 second bits of film.For example.Say you record an ACMI tape that last 5min. you will get it all but it will be divided into more than 1 clip is all.

RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
Spooky…google the crack exe for FRAPS.And you will be able to record unlimited.But it will be in 60 sec. bits of film is all.

RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
On launching the AMRAAM on a buddy lock from datalink.If you think about how the missile works…ask yourself who is guiding the missile until it goes Pitbull? Launching platform right!?
On detection of a missile launched in TWS Mode.You should not and will not get a launch detection.But will only detect the missile when it goes PITBULL!Which is one of the great things about TWS.But the draw back of course is losing lock while the missile is in flight prior to A or F POLE.

RE: Tactics, tips, knowledge sharing.
All of you guys have great points.So BIG UPS on your post.In BVR situations multi-ship encounters.I like to use electronic warfare tactics to confuse,and disorient the opponent especially if they are human players.But it works on the AI also(at least in Falcon AF it did).
A favorite 2 v 2 tactic was to Stay in TWS mode while my wingman used RWS to get a lock on the bandits.He would have ECM on emitting(drawing attention) while I would stay silent.Once he locked um up we would work a simple handoff tell I got a soft lock.Then I would launch(max range) reduce speed and crank(say to the right ).While he would notch or split S away and run at max speed drawing attention to him and away from the incoming missiles that I had fired.Follow on tactics would then be easy.As the bandits would always have a hard time sorting and figuring who was firing on them and from where. While he would be able to stay out of range and re-engage safely with advantage.While I would reposition(say on the flanks) or disengage.
Now imagine the confusion on the other side when you take turns blinking your ECM ON/OFF while your teammate does the same.Add in Pinch,Post hole manouvers,etc, and you get my point!

RE: Question on using HMCS
I was having same prob.Could not even lock with TMS Up until my buddy Hard Deck(thnx buddy) figured it out.Try setting a macro for TMS Up.(I use CTRL NUM 8.You have to make it exe. just like the keyboard which is Hold the CTRL key…press and release NUM 8.Then release the CRTL key last.The macro looks like this[CTRL NUM 8,NUM 8 CTRL]I set my timing for the 1st push of NUM 8 at 0.050.Now… this is assuming you have a HOTAS you can program of course.And your soft ware lets you do advanced commands macros…not just a simple macro.I,m using saitek X65f.But it works the same for X52 or the X52 pro.The secret was you have to hold down the CTRL key until after the NUM 8 key is released.I lock um up with HMCS easy now…:).
