Hey guys! This is a quick and dirty tutorial on how to use the new AGM-84H SLAM ER long range cruise missile in conjunction with the AWW-13 Datalink pod, the same pod used to guide and receive datalink from the AGM-62 Walleye and AGM-84E SLAM cruise missile.
The extended range and more importantly Datalink range of the AGM-84H will make this weapon a DCS World pilot favorite in my opinion!

Man what a mean looking weapon, definitely looks like it was designed to blow stuff up! I think the SLAM-ER will be a DCS pilot favorite! I can't wait to see people dropping SLAM-ER's onto taxiing players in multiplayer servers LOL!

@Kraken9911 3 года назад

This is the laziest weapon I'll ever use in DCS. I tested today by taking off, full burners to 30k, and launching over the airbase I took off from at targets over 100nm away. They all impacted with precision while I was already back on the ground rearming. This was in a mp server. There's a lot of fancy options to set it up but the bottom line is this basically a jdam with wings and an engine. A simple hsi waypoint designate is all you need: fire and forget from an absurd range.

@honzajedlicka6645 3 года назад

Only of course the reason ordinary JDAMs are still used IRL is that per Wikipedia their cost is $25k while SLAM-ER apparently costs $3 million a pop

@jameswilliams1085 3 года назад

Cool, another vídeo from Mr Spudknoker.... Could you do an updated video of the Good after its updated?( With reference to IR Mav's), could Someone kindly point me to an "updated" video of this wonderful tool!!! Thank you!

@cshader2488 2 года назад

Great video! do you know if there's a range limit on the datalink pod to receive video feed from the SLAMs?

@rm3950 Год назад

Hello, I'm still very new to DCS and still trying to turn the steeep learning curve into manageable and/or usable 'second nature' types of information. I may be off, but I seem to remember somewhere around 26 nm from SLAM to DL pod. I rarely use a distance beyond 15 nm just to keep my displays in use for other tasks if i'm intending to fly that close to the SLAMs target(s). If intending to keep a distance, i'll set up a link for 20 nm. One thing is certain, however, and that is that the SLAM/DL pod link is not nearly as long a distance as the stand-off distance of the SLAM-ERs firing range.

@AstroDad 3 года назад

@turtley_lit3241 3 года назад

Hey, @Spudknocker I’ve recently discovered your channel and have been hooked. I’ve gone back to older videos and started watching them! Today, I ordered a HOTAS to get into sims. Eventually, I would like to get into DCS so, which planes/maps/missions would you recommend to beginners? Thanks for any help and great work on the videos!

@tomclayton9398 3 года назад

Hey, I'd suggest trying out one of the Flaming Cliffs 3 module aircraft first (or buying the bundle if you can front the extra cash). They're more simplified than the high fidelity ones like this FA/18 but as a result are much better at introducing you to the game and the various mechanics. Crucially you're also saving yourself a chunk of cash against the cost of a full module should you decide DCS isn't for you. FC3 also includes a pretty good tutorial set for the SU27 Flanker which will get you started. Map-wise I'm not 100%. I bought Syria which is a very nice map, but expensive and pretty poorly optimised right now. I'd stick to the included map and see how you get on.

@sasquatchycowboy5585 3 года назад

If going the FC3 route then I would get the SU-27, or 33. The SU-25 is free to play and gives you a good ground pounder. Between a Flanker and a Frogfoot you can d ok the whole mission set. That being said I prefer the clickable cockpits. If I was starting out again I would go for the JF-17. I personally like the way its avionics are integrated, it's not really overly complex, and again you can cover the whole mission set. The Hornet is of course a great option as well.

@sschreck 2 года назад

Dude can you help me with pre-plan mode? I am using the GPS weapons training for F8 18 but my AGM 84 missiles keep getting shut down my SA8, or they just fly over their target after I have already put the coordinates in. Any thoughts?

@ctguy1955 3 года назад

I am just trying to get the SLAM ER to hit a target that is standing still without using the video guide in system. I get it to launch and it just flys over the target. I read that I needed to set slam altitude to 0 above ground to get it to attack a tank standing still and I do not know how to do that ??? Also, I cannot get a MAP to show up on bottom screen..... thanks for any help

@therocinante3443 3 года назад

All these excellent F/A-18C are great but I'll be REALLY excited when the F-16C gets the same level of attention as the hornet.

@thefridge71 3 года назад

I love your videos mate but it would have been good if you had covered some other options for the slam-er rather than doing the exact same thing as the official video, right down to the targets.

@BrotherBloat 3 года назад

you only need to click one of the WEP selections, they are not cumulative on the DL13.

@gregduncan 3 года назад

Do you know how far away you can get a good data link signal from? Is the SLAM-ER capable of hitting static targets without manual guidance?

@theperpetual8348 3 года назад

It is more accurate than a JDAM in fire and forget. The datalink is strong enough for the missile max range

@theperpetual8348 3 года назад

My preliminary testing has produced treetop flying from the missile, so if massed it could probably saturate enemy defenses

@mayuthecop 3 года назад

4, one on each pylon and center Datalink pod, no fuel bags, but it will get shot down if there is any SA-15 or other short range truck down there. Tunguska chews up Mavericks, it would be easy game for it lol.

@ernestwinslow7316 3 года назад

@@mayuthecop Hate those SA-15. Way too frustrating to get out of the way. It would be great to be able to program those Slammer to do a skim of the earth approach on the SA-15. Catch them late.

@mayuthecop 3 года назад

@@ernestwinslow7316 I think you can set their flight to Low, just like the Harpoon, not sure if they will skim, they might hit some terrain, also hard to control on the final attack. But even so, the SA-15 might still kill them since they are slow on the final attack.

@5113130 3 года назад

It’s great that these have such long range. But, one of the biggest problems with the regular slam was that the video was not usable at farther ranges (40nm or so). At what range is the SLAM ER video usable? Is it the same?

@Spudknocker 3 года назад

It’s useable up to the full range of the missile from what I’m seeing from other folks!

@ProfessorPottsy 2 года назад

From my testing it seems the video feed thru the datalink works at the maximum range. I was on a big orbit pattern around the maximum range and I was able to get the video feed just fine. However I will say it got fuzzy when the nose of my plane went more than 90° perpendicular to the missile and got unviewable if I kept going that way. I thought I always had to keep the nose pointed in the direction of the missile but I recently found you can swap the datalink antenna receiver from the front to the aft one so I will test that out whenever I get the chance next

@DJones476 3 года назад

So you didn't really cover anything that Wag's video didn't already. What about the Vel, Pos and Alt options for the Slam-Turn-Points (STP) or the F/C option? Doesn't really add much. Sorry.
