Rescue

Same here! It's magic to hit something with the AUTO Mode. Even with no Wind and not higher than 5000 feet and Mk83's, I still miss the Target (level flight).

Haven't seen the video yet. Can't you just type the ILS frq on the radio and enable ADF on the Channel? You should hear if you're on the glideslope. Or not?

I don't think it's realistic. If you are attacking A/G and got eyes on an enemy fighter you can switch to AIM120 and its on visual mode. You can fire it as "Maddog". If there is another fighter you can't lock visual and you need radar (BVR Situation) you have enough time to set right DDI to Radar. That's the way it is. But a nice Idea for Arcade-Fighters?! Greetings

Yeah had this once in MP. All Missiles shows 0 one the HUD. After a rearm on Carrier. Jettison Station 2 and 9 (each 2 Aim120), also the tanks on 3,5, and 7. Right before Jettison the last Aims on 4 and 6, HUD shows like it should be: 2 9X and 2 Aim120. Have no Track, maybe will reproduce in future. Grettings

Maybe WIP so that the FCS Page shows nothing and Reset doesn't solve the Problem? Maybe the failures are also WIP so this failure wouldn't happen this way? Didn't know the frame of the F-18 that good like the A-10. So I didn't know it's may be a hydraulic failure, but that would mean flaps full wouldn't work. Really interesting though. Is there any "professional" who can bring some light into this?

Haste ja recht. Das würde wiederum bedeuten das es, so wie es, sein soll. Ich meinte aber auch nicht Mk83 aus 12000ft. Sondern ähnliche Parameter wie beim CCIP nur halt im straight Level flight statt im Sturzflug. Und da trifft CCIP ja 9/10 in einem 10 Meter Bereich. Bei Auto ist das eher Glücksfall soweit ich erfahren konnte. Nutze es jetzt schon lange nicht mehr. Da 82er und 84er ohnehin nicht klappen habe ich die noch nie im Auto ausprobiert. Das Toss/Loft Bombing und Hi-dumb-bomb eher Glücksspiel ist, ist wohl klar. Danke euch trotzdem. Werde das bei Zeiten mal wieder ausgedehnt testen.

Hallo zusammen! Hab Momentan wenig Zeit für DCS und wollte mal fragen ob AUTO Bombing bzw. CCIP Bombing immernoch in Arbeit ist. Mein letzter Stand war das Mk82 zu weit fallen und Mk84 zu kurz. Nur 83er waren akkurat. Auto Bombing war durchgehend gruselig daneben auch mit 83ern. Hab leider keine weiteren Infos dazu gefunden ob das so sein soll und div. Spieler nicht fliegen können oder ob da noch Programmierbedarf ist und wann man sich dem annimmt. LG

We need this!

Had it some times. It happens if you're not lined up correctly.

Interesting. I did not know that. I recognized it several times but the most time I had known the BRC because of ME or the ship was moving anyway in MP or even Tacan was broken. "The ATC of the SHIP never speaking about BRC." I thought - like the airport - the runway XX telling you which course the ship is but can't degrade to the FB. Like I said in ME I often heard runway 00. And the ship was placed 00, so I just typed 351 CSEL and never saw that as a Bug. :music_whistling: Thanks for clearing this up. :joystick: But back to topic: I found the Chart very helpful even if I'm not playing that hard realism to follow that pattern (ATM). With the known FB set in CSEL and working TACAN and ICLS, I never had a problem with Case 3. (Just missing skill) :book:

CASE III Approach Chart see here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=216331

When Carrier ATC says in your example 36 the BRC is 360. The landing path as you may know is not straight the BRC. Like above it is - 9deg. In this case the final course should be 351. Did you try With ICLS? That of course will work even if the you set CSEL to BRC 360.

AFAIK you can only start a Programm that will auto-stop if it's done. I think S/A make not much sense as the F/A-18 has no Missile launch detector like the A-10, so IR Missiles won't be recognized. When it fires both it will waste the CM you didn't need right now. (And the Flare signature won't be hot enough if there is 1-2 flares every sec) I worked some days with MAN and had a Programm for IR Missiles and prog 5 for RH Missiles. As raelias wrote, this takes to much time as i also have to type in some NAV WP's. So I'm most of the time on Bypass and fire flares and chaff with my mighty defense thumb. And even on S/A the FWD button is still Programm 5, only the other one changes semi-automatic. Greetings

A other aspect is that the F/A-18 got a other spectrum than the F-14. The F-14 is an Air supority fighter with later on some Air-to-Gorund capabilities. The F/A-18 is a Multirole fighter and will have a much bigger Arsenal for A/G, but will miss the Phoenix missile. I think both will have a place and their pilots here in DCS. I personaly will stay with the F/A-18.

If that is true the main Question shouldn't be "Why Mav's before (L) GBU's", the Question should be: Why we get Laser guided Ordnance before others?! If we get Mavericks, fine it's okay for me, but send in these with Ir Seekers first! And if we talking about GBU's, damn I would rather prefer a AGM-62! First and foremost in my Hornet I want to pick a Target and engage it. And Second: I have no Airwing or Squadron, so there is nobody who can buddylase a target. And even if I had one it is a carrier Airwing. We will have hornets and soon F-14. No Lasers here. (And I'll go crazy if the F-14B from 3rd Party got an TgtPod before the Homemade Multirolefighter!) Last thing will be I don't know how to tell the AI A-10 to work as AFAC. And in MP you can get barely contact with one, cause you don't know if he uses TS or SRS or whatever. Maybe he want do more than just wait for me to get there and fire 4 Mav's and disapear? It's an EA Plane and I can Wait. But why Laser Ordance first? Seems to make no sense for me right know:( Greetings

I thought more speed will help with penetration. Im now in training with the mk83 and it works better everyday. Hope they fix the other Bombs and auto. Thanks for all. =)

Hey guys! With some less dynamic flying i finally get some hits. But the first and the last bombs doenst hit again. Am im flying to low or the angle or something? Thanks for looking. Test run.trk

Sounds interesting.. For sure it's just normal that the plane needs to stabilize but I missed the "not-accurate-fire-solution-symbology" like the Harrier (blinking cross) or the A10c (dashed line) had. So I just thought "well that's works". :music_whistling::doh: Will try some runs later with the 83's and will report. Maybe a Track if I get one. Nice to see I'm not alone :joystick:

Hey there! I'm pretty new in DCS. I'm in a year or so and started with the A-10C. Now I'm on the Hornet. Problem is I never get ahit on a Target, regardless if I'm working with CCIP or Auto. The Cross is on the Target but the Bombs fail them by 1-50 meters. Also no hit with the Rockeyes. I tryed it many ways and never get a kill. In some Tracks, even if I hit there is no kill. OH yeah.. No Track for this is happens way to often and the Track is always desync. In a Youtube Video someone saying about the Loft(Toss) Bombing is also not programmet yet/well. Soooo it is just me or does this also happen to others? Im so happy as soon as we get some guided AG Armament. Greetings
