DCS: F/A-18C Hornet | RAID Modes

In earlier videos, we looked at the range while search and track while scan radar modes of the Hornet, but today I want to discuss the three RAID submode. These are handy to break out contacts within a radar resolution cell and alert of you contacts around your L&S or STT target. We will talk about Scan RAID, RAID SAM, and 1 Look RAID modes. SCAN RAID Scan RAID mode is your RAID mode used when in the Track While Scan, or TWS, radar acquisition mode. This mode focuses the TWS scan volume into a smaller three-bar, 10 nm by 22-degree area that provides a faster update rate. In addition to providing faster contact updates, may also breakout targets within a resolution cell. Once a contact has been designated as the L&S, pressing the RAID/HARM Sequence/FLIR FoV switch on the left throttle activates Scan RAID mode. The B-Sweep line is locked to the L&S azimuth and SCAN RAID appears at the bottom of the attack radar display. The scan centers on the L&S and it cannot be adjusted. Trackfiles and raw hits
