I'm not 100% sure but I believe that version of the shrike was designed to go after longer range tracking radars in the e/f frequency band. The SA-8 TELAR operates on c and j
I think they 'WORK' but only if you aim a certain way. You have to aim high up the HUD. I actually did not think about this posting this video because I made this video right before 2.9 came out so sorry for the confusion. I work many weeks in advance sometimes and try to have completed videos in a content bank so I can post something if I am busy or out of town.
Thanks for running the server, Enigma, and this video. Now when I'm fangs out with guns I deliberately repeat to myself "control closure! control closure!" as the main thing to think about and it made a world of difference to my gunfighting. Doing the same may help you too. Brevity also gets easier once one is determined to do it instead of the conversational style - but hey, it's a Free World :) [or used to be].
So I tried to install this, and with dcs on my hard drive people said to put a copy of it on my C drive so should so I test the combinations of it being on my C drive and hard drive and it never gave me authorization, So do I need to put the whole community folder in instead of just the part that says A-4E-C or is it something else?
Hi bro. Are you running Dcs 2.9?, because I have heard that there are free Mods that have stopped working when updating to version 2.9... Good video. Thank you for sharing them. Greetings from Venezuela.
Sick I want to learn to do some SEAD in the A-4 so this is perfect! The other day I was having a hell of a time getting my Shrikes to track at all. I tried about 15 times and I think only a couple actually tracked. I kept trying at VERY low altitude so I will try at 12k like you stated.
@@Enigma89 you don't aim higher up, you want to release them *below* the target (relative to your gun sight reticle. The Shrikes are installed upside down currently
This video is a bit old so this was before that issue arrived. For shrikes you need to aim up higher (almost like a mirage 2k bore sight area) and then the shrike should track AFAIK
Why are the BlueFor AWACS set to immortal ? Both of them ! ? i worked hard to avoid defences and fighters clawed for every meter to climb into a HAWK network up there where they were orbitin just to find out you cannot thake them down or damage them .... 3xmissiles into one and strafed the other before being shot down and nothing not even points.... ? @Enigma89
Because the server becomes unplayable when there is absolutely no vision to see. DCS multiplayer lags the more radars you put into a mission. So instead of several EWRs, we may place one AWACS to make things run smoother.
DCS SAM Ai is so brainless its really hard to call anything in that game SEAD. would you say a game has "dogfighting" when the ai only knows how to fly straight and level? Being able to shoot ARMs at radars does NOT constitute as SEAD or DEAD imo, which is something Falcon BMS absolutely excells at.
@@liammackenzie9283 You are quite correct. I use it on a private server and it makes SAMs what they should be. The private server is for US military veterans only and in the opinions from those on it… it’s damn good. Especially when SAM sites are properly placed and constructed.
I tend to agree but this is all we got in DCS. I do like BMS a lot. I really hope that if they ever get a red plane then we can start to see a MP scene flourish in BMS.
If you haven't flown the A-4 yet then you are missing out. It's free and fun. Get it here: github.com/heclak/community-a4e-c/releases
did you have this video on unlisted for 4 months or something cuz how tf
I will be starting training in the A-4 in a few days. My cockpit is complete sans the VR headset.
@@ziepex7009 Yes. I work ahead and have a content bank just in case I am out of town or need a week off, I will pull up a video from the bank :)

I see A-4, I click
Are the Shrikes fixed now? A month ago they wouldn't track on radar emissions.
That‘s what I was wondering too. I think it was because of 2.9
Yes, please let them be fixed!
they still don't work on my end! they don't track anything
still broken sadly. even fresh installed it to try

A-4 is sooo much fun on your server.... I'll be back on in a few weeks when I wrap up this term.
My favourite module on enigma... till the F4 arrives
It’s a great plane and a perfect fit for your server. I love it, proper Cold War era piece of kit
God, if only the Bronco had the same level of support. 😔
Be the change you seek.
Are fox 1s not on the server? You said the mirage f1 had heaters, however it can also carry fox 1s.
Radar nav computer helps with the low altitude field runs
This mod is TO good. Its actally better in VR.. How you see these guys, the MIGS? Cant hear a bogey dope...
love that scooter! so weird about the shrike audio capture.
is red getting the 25T for sead? :D
Dcs free to play kreygasm
The A 4 is one of the best modules in general
Forever Free! We guarantee it ;)
That grey/green RAF skin is baller
I think its a kiwi skin
I ike this plane a lot. But i dont like red for players not installing the mod so they got the larger flanker profile to make spotting it easier.
Skyhawk you mean?
oh derp, fixed it thanks.

It goes In your saves game folder not in your main directory
@@Enigma89 yeah, it didn’t work in my saved games folder either😔
Would you add the F-104G mod or is that too gamey still?
A-4 was the reason I joined ECW in he first place, not the other way around 😂
Did they fix the Shrike in the A-4E? I thought it had a bug?
The A-4 is fantastic.
@Enigma89 what are your thoughts on the VSN F-4D? Will it ever be added to the server in the future?
I have not flown it. Mods are hard to add. The official F-4 is coming soon so just waiting on it.
Check title
I need to join you guys somehow. I fly in VR
A14, I thought it was an A4?
Hi bro. Are you running Dcs 2.9?, because I have heard that there are free Mods that have stopped working when updating to version 2.9... Good video. Thank you for sharing them. Greetings from Venezuela.
Yes, the A-4 still works in 2.9
@@Enigma89 Ok, thanks bro. Do you know which free mod doesn´t work with 2.9?

There is an issue with the shrikes right now, you actually have to aim higher up to get them to work. This video was made a bit while ago
@@Enigma89 you don't aim higher up, you want to release them *below* the target (relative to your gun sight reticle. The Shrikes are installed upside down currently
@@Big_Red_Dork thanks for this couldn't figure out what the issue was at all, now they track fine
Also, p3 for attackers when?
Should be fixed when the F-4 is released
Is the shrike fixed yet?
This video is a bit old so this was before that issue arrived. For shrikes you need to aim up higher (almost like a mirage 2k bore sight area) and then the shrike should track AFAIK
Just a question, do you need to download the aircraft by yourself to play on the server now or can you just join and it works?
You download it before you join the server
so i have to go and download it externally myself? is what im asking@@ulrikmller3161
You can join the server without the A-4 mod, but you can't fly the A-4 without the mod, and you'll see other players' A-4s as Su-27s
Nice one!
Hey, great new logo, by the way!!
👍
Shrikes are working again?
Love that the F4 is free and very well done!
A4*
@@EthanolEnthusiast You're right. My bad.
@@thejetfighter I wish the F4 was free!
Nice!
What does sead mean?
Suppression of Enemy Air Defence - It has a seeker that will target radars, normally found on Anti Air units (like the OSA in the video)

The Skynet IADS script totally changes how SAMs in DCS behave. I wish more MP servers would use it as it requires nothing client side.
Thanks for letting us know!
@@liammackenzie9283Hello, can you explain how SAMS works in DCS and howi should works in the real world , or in BMS? thanks!!!

ewww mod plane
DCS Multiplayer is unplayable I don't even know why people play on servers..
