DCS World - MiG-21 - Tutorial - 17 (Radar Warning Receiver)

Radar Warning Receiver on MiG-21 is a device of very modest capabilities, even when compared to the Western systems of the same generation. But, is it still useful, you can see in this video.

I didn't seem to find anything by the Grim Reapers on the Fishbed's RWR, however this video was quite useful! Informative, to the point, and easily understood. Thank you so much for this! Now I can feel better about flying in Enigma's Cold War Server.

Thank you for the feedback and I'm glad the video was useful. Not even GR can cover everything, I guess 😁

Thank you, so much, for making this video. Even now, no one else has made one covering the RWR. Not only did you make the video, but you made a very good, clear, and informative video. Thank you!

Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad it helped.

Great explanation! I’m watching this to get ready for the RWR system required in the Mi-24p Hind that was just announced!

[@showtime112]

Thank you for the comment, I'm glad it was useful!

[@yesverygood7437]

really helpful video, most videos just explain the basic way the rwr works but this one goes into some principles that make it much easier to interpret

[@showtime112]

Thanks for the feedback! Several other people wrote the same thing. Ir seems like this video covered something that others missed.

Hey mate fantastic explaination and thanks for the translation! You wouldn't happen to know what it means when the RWR gives you a lock tone but doesn't show any lights? I have had this happen a lot when flying low in terrain on a PVP server going up against modern jets. I believe it means I have been locked by a radar but it hasn't gone STT maybe?

[@showtime112]

Thanks for the comment! I can't say that I know what the situation you describe might be. The manual doesn't mention it. I doubt that MiG-21s RWR is sensitive enough that it can sense a soft lock or tell the difference between variations in modern radar modes. It could be a bug.

[@FuturPaladin489]

might be the radar for altitude ?

[@StarwarsHalofreak]

Mighty informative. I like to think if someone devoted enough time to watching DCS videos or playing it, they could very well actually take off and fly in one of these. Of course a game can't supplement the real thing, especially when considering this is the MiG-21 we're talking about.

[@showtime112]

Thanks for the comment. I suppose you could learn procedures such as starting an airplane, perhaps taxi it to the runway. Everything else is probably a very different experience :)

Great video. Very informative

Thanks, I appreciate the comment!

Good video 👍

Thank you very much, I hope you watch some others too!

Ty for subs

[@showtime112]

Thank you for watching and commenting. These tutorials were initially intended only for 'local market' but eventually, I started subtitling them to English as well. It seems, people do watch.

Koja je ovo 21 ...vidim da nije MF . BIS možda?

bis

Kolko jos do kraja?

A gle, ako ti je dosadilo ne moraš gledati 😂😂😁

[@domovinivjerni]

@@showtime112 nee, ja iskoristavam svaku sekundu da gledam cijeli video

[@showtime112]

@@domovinivjerni Ajde dobro, vjerovat ću ti :) Što se tiče MiG-a 21, ovime su pokrivene sve neke osnovne teme. možda mi još sine ideja za nešto "naprednije" ali sad ću malo krenuti sa tutorialima za nešto drugo. I možda bude još koji video sa misijama gdje je MiG u glavnoj ulozi.

[@domovinivjerni]

@@showtime112 misija, Oluja 1995 😎 Btw. Grci se nisu javili za njihov F-16 😢

[@showtime112]

@@domovinivjerni Razmišljao sam o misiji tog tipa ali problem mi je da nemam dovoljno detalja a ne usudim se raditi slobodnu interpretaciju. Sjetio se tebe kad sam pročitao da Grci nisu poslali ponudu. Što misliš o aktualnim ponudama? Nekako mi se čini da bi mogao proći Rafale. S Izraelcima se možda neće opet igrati nakon onog neuspjeha a američki F-16 novi tko zna kad će biti proizveden.
