I look at

8nm? sure?

in short With the help of the laser, you determine exact coordinates that are passed on to the Helffire. After shoot, the helffire flies independently in this area and searches for the target there. but with the FCR, this will function even better/faster.

Yes This is also the case in DCS. With the F16: starting with the best accuracy. 1.PP 2.TGP+ Laser 3.TGP This has not been the case for a long time,Buildings and vehicles stop the laser. Showcase : currently you have to keep it pressed or drop it quite soon after.

I am not familiar with the math behind this but there seems to be a reason why the pilots do this in the air. https://theaviationgeekclub.com/a-10-pilot-explains-why-warthog-drivers-often-boresight-the-agm-65-maverick-on-wingman-rather-than-on-a-ground-target/amp/

Again,new track pls?

Basically no, the AGM-88C has a rough INS which is not enough for pinpoint attacks. Although it flies in the direction of the target point, it can still fly a few hundred meters or even km away from the actual waypoint as long as there is no emitter nearby this is Reported

Could you add a track? Otherwise, the current behavior of the AGM-88 is such that they become active almost immediately after starting. It doesn't matter which mode you are in, if the radar in the area is off, this can lead to discrepancies. There is already a bug report for this

hm. some vehicles have "dead" zones in their hitboxes, this could be another one. so a track of it would be very helpful, but in general the problem is known

That is correct night should not give any restrictions. With the radar, the sa19 detects the targets, turns on them and the gunner then steers the missile probably Manual(or with EO support?) into the target, we assume that the vehicle has night vision capabilities.

the more you know.. I looked at the whole thing again and with a hint from @Volk. I found out that there is an indicator that tells you what the server has set. If "no aligment neede but fixtaking" is set and you switch on the K-041 before the INU power supply, "Prec" lights up automatically on the PVI-800. https://streamable.com/bbtokv

Yes. It would only be nice if you could get a message or any info what option the server has set. Unless you can look that up in the Ka-50III itself. But I am not yet known how should this work

okay, I tested the whole thing again and you can select a "stored" precise alignment with the option(no aligment neede but fixtaking)in the ME and then the INU behaves normally with drifts and so on. here are a few examples the flight time to the destination was ~30min each the maneuvers were flown very softly, in a combat situation it naturally drifts much more. Fast: # ~15 min Prec : : "Stored" (no aligment neede but fixtaking):

kannst du mal eine Track von deinem Start up hochladen? das hilft enorm dabei den Fehler zu finden.

As far as I've heard, I guess they're not sure if the Ka-50 could do it, so it was removed. The only way to provide evidence would be in IRL cockpit pictures showing the cargo switches and their labeling.

Nice thanks for the info. I have also tested the whole thing and if you do the whole thing as you explain there are basically no waiting times.

Hm could you create track of the situations so that we all see the same? And I see the point from the hints you give, you can otherwise contact @BIGNEWY via pm with it. Yes and that is also the case, there are reports that talk about 10 knots of wind and a 3.7 cep is reached. However, it is not specified whether the pilots compensate the wind with an offset.

well, DCS is just software at the end of the day. (for GPS bombs it is currently the case in DCS) and especially LG bombs(in DCS) are very accurate in terms of the hit pattern (not tested for a long time, could be different again). well they are laser bombs which are quite simple compared to GPS bombs and if you laser directly on the target the bomb will try to steer there and wind can affect it if you don't compensate for it. Even if the aircraft calculates a perfect drop, the "control logic" of the bomb after detection of the laser would nullify this. @Iron_physik in 10 knot winds, the bomb will deviate 3-4 meters in a drop from 20,000 feet, I would consider plausible. but since nothing is set in stone, it would of course be cool to see how it ultimately performs IRL, taking a shot in 10-20 knots of wind and holding the laser directly on the target. that is also the case in DCS without wind the bomb is very very accurate. here you can see the effect of 10 knots of wind, dropped from 20,000feet. if i were to equalize the wind and laser 3 meters next to the APC, i would still have a pinpoint hit.

Exactly that, on the ground it doesn't work that well anyway, I always do it on the flight to the target, the procedure takes less than 20 seconds if you are practiced.

okay do i understand correctly that you achieve 2 different results with the same wind force? Not really, if you know the wind direction and then laser a few feet in that direction you still have a pinpoint weapon. 10knots wind 3,7 CEP for GBU12 should still be possible

best would be a track to see what exactly is happening. but basically, if you know which direction the wind is coming from and especially when it is a bit stronger, you should offset accordingly

Is this a new behavior? I haven't flown a10 with cbu105 for a long time but I don't remember ever having to align it for that long, the cbu105 is also kept up to date by the board GPS.
