What function can display the RCS value of an aircraft?

[hanzawa1991]

I'm doing a small experiment on radar detection of aircraft. I don't want to manually check the database to get the RCS value. Is there a function like 'ScenEdit_GetUnit' that can display the RCS value of a flying target at any time?

Not that I know of yet.

Getting caught up on release note reading, maybe try new unitwrapper.signature property in 1288.1?
Looks like this should have it, and a great addition if it's working now.

That's great, but there's no infrared data in there

It does appear to be there, both IR, RCS, and Visual, look at the response table and the type or typeN properties ("IR_Detect"|"IR_ID" |4001|4002) to parse out the IR related data specifically, it may be similarly called rcs but it looks like it's the data you want. no?

Code: Select all

{
loadout = 19867
[2] = { text = { rear = '3.56 nm', front = '3.56 nm', side = '7.94 nm' }, rcs = { rear = 3.56, front = 3.56, side = 7.94 }, typeN = 3001, type = 'Visual_Detect' },
[3] = { text = { rear = '3.26 nm', front = '1.90 nm', side = '4.30 nm' }, rcs = { rear = 3.26, front = 1.9, side = 4.3 }, typeN = 3002, type = 'Visual_ID' },
[4] = { text = { rear = '11.94 nm', front = '3.56 nm', side = '8.00 nm' }, rcs = { rear = 11.9425, front = 3.56, side = 7.9985 }, typeN = 4001, type = 'IR_Detect' },
[5] = { text = { rear = '1.90 nm', front = '1.90 nm', side = '4.30 nm' }, rcs = { rear = 1.9, front = 1.9, side = 4.3 }, typeN = 4002, type = 'IR_ID' },
[6] = { text = { rear = '9.04 dBsm, 8.0 sq.m.', front = '9.04 dBsm, 8.0 sq.m.', side = '11.15 dBsm, 13.0 sq.m.' }, typeN = 5001, rcs = { rear = 9.03988, front = 9.03988, side = 11.14721 }, sqm = { rear = 8.016566, front = 8.016566, side = 13.023313 }, type = 'Radar_A_D' },
[7] = { text = { rear = '9.04 dBsm, 8.0 sq.m.', front = '9.04 dBsm, 8.0 sq.m.', side = '11.15 dBsm, 13.0 sq.m.' }, typeN = 5002, rcs = { rear = 9.03988, front = 9.03988, side = 11.14721 }, sqm = { rear = 8.016566, front = 8.016566, side = 13.023313 }, type = 'Radar_E_M' },
