Are you in the A/G mode? Also make sure you don't have the gun selected.

Maybe your designated waypoint have an elevation above the ground. Make sure your waypoints elevation are on the ground. Or Before you commence your attack. Unbox the waypoint and follow the diamond.

Radar altitude will calculate your height from the floor and it has a limit of 5000ft. So if you are above 5000ft from the floor, the altimeter will switch to Barometric.

Maybe the second target is donated by the AWACS and it is not picked up by your radar. This is why you can't lock him up. If you have the track file or TacView, try to investigate where is the second target related to you. Maybe because you are using TWS and AUTO to lock the first target, you radar is pointing away from the second target.

I guess no, you can't lock it. However, there is an option on the EW page to repeat its information on the HUD.

The DDI yes, but I said you can't change on the bomb. I think ED fixed the fuse on the bomb to 1,500ft. So, you have to set it on the DDI 1,500ft to match the bomb.

I don't think the VT height on the bomb is changeable. It is fixed to 1,500ft. Make your bomb run with a speed of 400knot, with diving angle of 15 to 25 and release height between 3,000 to 4,000ft.

+1 me too. I tried all the Russian airplanes and non has it.

Hello, Which airplane can drop the RBK-500 SPBE-D? I see it in the weapons encyclopedia but couldn't find any plane that can carry it.

Images Maybe for ATFLIR and not the lightning pod. Not sure though.

The CV is bugged in the 2.5.6

The current JTAC currently implemented, would choose the designator or pointer depending on the weapon. And it would not emmit both IR and Laser. Smoke or IR Pointer for cannon, IR MAV and general bombs. While laser designator for LGB and laser MAV.

Got it. So IR Pointer and FLIR optics are working on different wavelength. So basically, Smoke is used to mark targets at daylight and IR Pointer at night. What I'm missing right now is TGP Pointer on the HUD so we can point the TGP to where the target is painted by IR for better identification.

Hello, In a night CAS mission with JTAC, I can see the IR Pointer illuminating the Target with Night vision HMD. But, why I can not see it with the TGP FLIR mode?

It is not a bug. It is part of rendering optimization. Since you are very high to visually see Civ traffic, game engine would not render it.

Actually, if you have a vehicle (tested with fuel truck) parked very near the F-18 - cold&dark - on the left side the stair is shown. As soon as the vehicle start moving the stair will be stowed.

Are you selecting the quantity? If so please refer to JDAM/JSOW STEP function change in the sticky threads.

You have to STEP. Each missile has its own program you have to STEP to be able to program it.

Available in Open Beta version.

[sCRIPTING] Broken Visibility and Detection Functions I posted the following in DCS World 2.5/Bugs and Problems/AI https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=248420 But, I guess this forum is correct. In the latest Open Beta v2.5.5.34864, script functions: * land.isVisible * Controller.getDetectedTargets(VISUAL) Both can see through building and obstacles.Tested on PG map. However, The AI seams do not react to threat. Versions before did not have this issue.

I was testing some mission. and by mistake I issued a command to a bradley unit to go somewhere in the sea. Strangely, the unit accepted the command and started to swim!!

Did you make it you SOI? If the MAV screen on your left DDI push the Sensor Select Switch to the left. A diamond shape indicator should appear on the upper right corner of the screen.

Yes it can over heat. For example in the Ka-50 black shark module it can over heat and wear down with usage. But, I don't think it is modeled in the F-18 yet.

PP mode is used with data cartridge which is not implemented yet. So, eventually you can input your target points at mission planer (Pre-planned targets). TOO, can be used for example in CAS missions or with waypoint offset which is not implemented yet. So, you don't really know the target location until later in the flight (opportunity you take).
