  1. This sounds logical but it couldn't be further from the truth. Flir pods get moved all the time on a daily basis.
  2. The hornet isn't certified to carry mk80 series bombs on the bru41. I'm sure they are capable of carrying it, we are just not allowed to load it. And yes it is true that each squardons bring around 6 bru41s when they go on deployment that are only used for practice bombs (mk76, lgtr) and maybe a marine flare. you will never see this config on a hornet being used in realword
  3. It was added sometime around 2008 in lemoore. Pilot had an emergency and it never popped out. So now we check it during launch
  4. I checked the a-d hornet loading checklist at work and this is correct. Legacy hornets don't use the adu773 to fit single 127's on a pylon. It must be through the 115 with lau127s attached to the sides. Just like the sidewinders. This is of course the US NAVYS version(which is what we have in dcs)
  5. I wish for a missile that was of high speed, and it would look out for radiation and it would anti said radiation. Maybe something with 3 different modes like a self protect mode or a target of opportunity mode, even a pre-brief mode for that extra range. It will be so sophisticated that a physical computer will need to be put inside the right side of aircraft to help process what it sees, a computer for command and launch perhaps.... I think that this has the making a of a great missile I just don't know what to call it. Maybe one day we will find out.
  6. They will be loaded just like the sidewinders are loaded under the wing, or sparrows in station 4&6. They need a launcher to launch.
  7. This is the image the help me understand semi active homing the best
  8. The tools are there, use them. set trim after dropping ordnance. atc set at 350. Problem solved
  9. Well of course it's gonna be impractical if your using 4way button instead of axis.
  10. The hornet is supper easy to start. 4 clicks and you have both engines online
  11. I logged on and tried auto start after seeing this and I got the same thing. I'm guessing it's just broken right now
  12. As Frederf pointed out I was unable to find one picture of a single pod loaded on a bru-32 they are all loaded on 33/55's
  13. You sure about that ejection speed. I'm pretty sure it's been safe to eject over Mach since the 60's/70's
