DCS 2.5/2.7 Update Thread (2021)

So I did some experimenting with that Harrier mission I had made and found you can get the TACAN symbol to show up but not as how it used to be.

First pic. I’m in the mission and I’ve set my TACAN setting on my Harrier to the TACAN frequency of the KC-130 including setting it to A/A. Notice no TACAN symbol but there seems to be a waypoint symbol which moves. I got to think this is a bug.

The next two screenshots show nothing changed in my Harrier settings tracking the KC-130 except I switched from A/A to T/R. You see this on the second screenshot here and notice that TACAN symbology does now show up on the MFD.


The last screenshot shows same settings but I wanted to check whether the DME distance figures show up on the HUD. They do. The way this is all going down just leads me to think it’s a bug but I really don’t know.
