RWR rework #129

Closed colingeniet closed 4 years ago

colingeniet commented 4 years ago

In the real RWR, the sound corresponds directly to the radar signal, with sound frequency equal to the PRF. I tried to mimic that in a very simplified way:

The parameters (sound pitch, period for scan mode,...) depend on the aircraft type. Thus it should become possible to identify the radar type from the sound.

What is missing is some values for these parameters, particularly the PRF. The AJS values are from the manual (with a very liberal interpretation). I added a couple of test values for SAM and ships, and everything else is just a default value. Obviously it will be hard to find declassified information on radars, but I'm hoping to find some values for a couple of older aircrafts, and make up something for the rest.

Cool, sound like nice improvements. :)

Additional changes:

I managed to find some reasonable PRF values for the SAM and ships, based on older declassified radars. I still need to do the same for aircrafts.
