AIM-120 Has anyone noticed how close you need to be to a target, before you get a "shoot" Que? I thought the AIM-120 was a medium to long range weapon? I never get the Shoot symbol until I am 6 to 7 nm from target

Negative not late. one objective. I will test your suggestion, 10k ingress and 10k going away. Thanks

3 different groups of 4, B17G aircraft, will not bomb they're target. Have tried most of the options for attack. Bomb map object....Carpet bomb....formation carpet bomb.....bomb group.....bomb unit. Nothing works. I did manage to get one bomber to drop 2 bombs as gamemaster and targeting via the map.

In the mission editor, I can select the clipped wing version of the Mk 9, but when I go to the arming page, there is no option for drop tanks or bombs. Same for the unbobbed version. I have tried selecting a different task, still no tanks or bombs.

Like waiting for a drug dealer!

Since I am re-tired, I wont have to make up an excuse for missing work. The issue I have, is being awake at 12:01 AM, tonight, this morning, whatever, and booting up DCS World every half hour to check for the download. I WANNA HAVE IT!!!!!!!

I am just guessing here, but perhaps the map download isn't quite uploaded at the DCS website just yet? When it is complete, I will assume it will let you download it. Pure speculation on my part.

Just for some grins, I had an SH-60 helo take off from a Perry class ship, and fly an anti-ship mission. Shortly after the missile left it's rail, the ship it was targeting was hit by a couple of harpoon missiles, and sunk before the penguin got close. First of all, it seems the Penguin has a burn time of well......10 or 15 minutes.:cry: All the way to the target area the motor was burning. When it reached the spot the ship was before it sank, the Penguin went ballistic, and started doing circles continuously. As far as I know it was still at full thrust doing circles when I closed the mission editor.

Not even a small creek!

I thought English was the universal standard at airports and traffic control?

Well that is welcome news! Actually 45 CM is what I can load in the mission editor, default 30/15. That wouldn't last long if you got jumped by a couple of Mig-29s.:cry:

I have made a few missions with the AI F/A18C, (non-flyable) and I noticed in the arming section for the hornet, it shows only 30 chaff, and 15 flares. Is this really all the F/A-18C carries?

As I see it Sir, he would not have sent me that picture if he were concerned about his face.:smilewink:

Well I tried the mission again with a Russian destroyer added, and the harpoons sank that. Guess the carrier can take a lot of damage?

After watching every anti ship missile, (harpoon) fired at the Russian aircraft carrier shot down by the ships defenses, I set the boat's ROE to weapons hold. A total of 10 F/A-18Cs. carrying 2 harpoon missiles each, fired at the carrier. Every missile hit it's target. Absolutely no damage was inflicted on the carrier!:cry:
