It is my understanding the hornet's EW (RWR) system directs the harm what to look for and where. Automatically setting up these tables for you on the fly depending on what it detects, as well as telling it where to search. This can be wrong though, I figure someone will find out and explain this. Time to check the forums.
soooo can't help noticing there seems to be a lot of additional codes missing Patriot, Hawk, S200, gepard, roland etc will the rest be added as well otherwise it can only engage a limited set of air defence like a 3rd of all the current air defence in the game ?
We will surely need those codes. Many PvP servers use Patriot, Hawk, Roland and Rapier SAMs. And what about maritime threats? We need codes for all of this stuff, too. Let's hope we get a complete list next week.

Impressive. But now I wonder why the same missile's sensor seems so much more capable in the Hornet. Does it mean that the Hornet's implementation is unrealistic?
Hornet is a ground attack aircraft and always was hence he A in its designation. The 16 was designed as a fighter and modified to also provide air to ground. Its likely due to the 16s systems never originally being designed for air to ground.
Im wondering the same thing. Is the Hornet's implementation, as done kn DCS, unrealistic. It just seems soooooo easy compared to this. (tho this will def be fun to learn)
If I understand correctly the F/A-18 has a Harm targeting system built into the airframe. The F-16 needs to mount an external pod on the left chin mount to have full capability. It looks like he does not have the HARM targeting pod equiped
great video as always from Matt :D.. I take it that even when you destroy the SAM sight, it will still show on the HSD and the RWR is the only way to know if you got it (of course other than the notification text on the bottom left of your screen)
Theoretically IRL it would be better to wait only because if you fire when only Active IRL they might be able to shut down the radar before it hits (idk if in DCS Ace skilled SAMs do that yet) but when they are tracking a missile too you not only does it take longer but also it means if they shut down their missile will miss so its harder for them to do so.
Southern Bear I believe in real life the Harm is programmed to home in on the last known position of the radar if it stops transmuting radar signals. I’ll have to ask around.
