Good video dude, I wish something like this was out when I was working my way through it. I hadn't explored how far you can make the agm88 work to point to the site, I've always tried to point as straight as I can but it's nice to know it can do it for when range isn't an issue.

What a SEAD-y video!

Tricker, once again a absolute fabulous video - especially your Viper videos are my favourites here on YT. Unfortunately the Viper is actual a little -broken- "dis-optimized", I read so many threads on the DCS-forum where peaople write about their viper-disappointment. And what happens? After a while they get closed by some mod on the forum. But before someone get's me wrong: I came to DCS because I saw the first F-15E-Trailer. Today I have 7 times more hours on the Viper than in the Mudhen. 💞F-16 Viper💞

Then people forget that just because the radar is down. They can still fire at you using the seeker heads radar of the missile. But you are usually lower or have gone past the site. Their range is seriously reduced but still a threat.

@ChucksSEADnDEAD

Ай бұрын

Some launch vehicles can fire independently like the Buk or Tor as they carry their own engagement radar (the real life MH17 shootdown was caused by a Buk crew firing with their engagement radar with no search radar to tell them it was a civilian airliner). But command guidance missiles do not carry a radar and missiles with an active seeker which point up in their deployed TEL cannot acquire a plane. What's possibly happening is that you are taking out the search radar but the engagement radar is still online, or you are facing a battery with TELAR vehicles which have a smaller and shorter range engagement radar.

King of SEAD....where the enemy is using static permanently emitting radar guided sams if sead includes ir sams then it's definitely not king....and for radar guided sams which don't emit until firing or are mobile then it also isn't great.....but in DCS most radar guided sams are set up to permanently emit and mobile sams are usually static.

@TrickerDCS

Ай бұрын

It’s hard to simulate an exact scenario where I can showcase the superior systems of the HTS pod when the vanilla game of DCS world won’t allow you to have mobile SAMs or have the radars act like they would in real life without running scripts. If the SAMs would continue to pop on and offline, the HTS pod does an outstanding job at finding those radars to quickly fire a HARM towards the radar. IR SAMs will always be a threat in any environment to any aircraft, but in this video I was just trying to showcase how you can use the HTS pod and HAD to quickly find and engage enemy SAM sites.

@ChucksSEADnDEAD

Ай бұрын

Even if SAM sites are not static they take time to move. We have just seen in the last few days a S-300 system being hit by HIMARS and a S-300/S-400 battery hit by ATACMS. The ATACMS was extremely effective because while in theory you use cables to link the vehicles and spead out the battery, the SAM crews eventually got complacent and bunched up the vehicles together. So the ATACMS cluster munition rain nailed the entire battery. The mobile SAM is nice in theory. But nobody can run forever. Eventually there's a slip up.

@@ChucksSEADnDEAD Were talking DCS not IRL....but some SAMs can fire on the move. SA8,15,19 can track on the move and only need to stop to actually fire....and when moving HARM usually miss.

@@TrickerDCS The Harrier can find an destroy IR SAMs and AAA very easily...especially for a SEAD mission where there is a specific target area which needs to be cleared. A harrier can cover 100sqm in about 10-15 minutes finding and destroying SA9s or even manpads and it can find an identify manpads from infantry at over 40 miles in a small area (like an airbase). HARM are clearly superior to Sidearm, however sidearm can outrange SA2,3,6 and 11 ...but it cannot outrage an SA10 (it can but not in any practical sense). Sidearm also places symbology on the HUD allowing you to slave the TPOD to find sams such as SA8, 13 and SA19s which can then be fired on with either the sidearm......but the real power is when you use APWKS instead so you can take out literally a dozen SA8s and still engage SA2s 11s etc. The Harrier also has LJDAMs so can overfly many SAM sites and hit mobile SAMs one at a time.....but can drop 10 LJDAMs in a single pickle taking out 10 targets wiping out air defences in a single press. SEAD is much more than flinging HARMs (which the Viper is definitely the king of). The Harrier isn't as good at the Viper for long range SAMs...but is good enough....but is far better for short and medium range SAMs. A Viper and a Harrier together....now that IS a powerful combo.

@@Pukin-Dog I get it, you like the harrier, I do too… I have many videos on it and fly it often online. But, in my opinion the f16 can be just as destructive and even more so. We are talking about SEAD here and not DEAD. There’s so many scenarios that we can play out but the point of the video was the f16 makes it easy and it does the job extremely well in the SEAD role. If the two are paired together then of course it will be amazing, but the F16 would provide the SEAD while the Harrier provided the DEAD.

I’m just not sure whether my game is bugged, all my modules are bugged, my hotas is the problem or I manage to fuck it up every time and no one can figure out how .-.

i still dont understand how sead works, like how can you be sure no sam is there waiting for you to come to NEZ .. like a SAM that is turned radar off and with infrared sensors just waiting for those flying F16 going with harm to finish off what they think is a dead SA6 radar (but could have easily be a repeater-decoy that transmits as if its sa6.. and you go 5 miles close to REAL sa6 and they blast the f out of you. cuz i think this would be reality and also reality in dcs if we would have option to operate sams.. sadly today in dcs sams are as braindead as GCI plane going full afterburner across the map and running out of fuel 20 miles before engaging in combat and RTB..lol

That's the beauty of SEAD. There's a reason the mission used to be called "Iron Hand" and the patches for Wild Weasel had "YGBSM" written on them ("you gotta be shitting me" - reactiom when you're told to go after SAMs). The reverse is also true. Imagine you're seeing contacts and you're not sure which are decoys or just electronic warfare creating false images, you decide to turn off your radar to fool the HARM but then you don't know if a glide bomb was released. Or you never got in on the action, because a low flying Storm Shadow hit your command vehicle to create an opening for a strike package. Never saw it coming.
