To give you a simple startingpoint in addition to the obove mentioned coordinated turns: In general for harder turns my go to is banking to 60° and pull. If I climb I increase my AoB and if I decent I decrease it.

Bombing Calculetor not working since latest patch.

You have a 0° Dive, so there is no Dive for the DIVE Toss. -
Jester cant see targets beyond 10 miles
Yannick Pancake replied to SpecteRED's topic in DCS: F-4E Phantom
It is even possible to survive an Engagement with the F-14 in the Nevada Map Quick Mission against an F-14 and even shoot it down. But it comes down to good SA and usage of the AI AWACS + understanding of the APQ-120 -
If I'm correct the DMAS F-4E will get the Loran

Since today's patch didn't include any HB Updates, is there any timeplan on when the next patch is going to be released?

My understanding of the "locking" is, that you just say your Radar and the Weapons Computer where the ground on the Boresight is. You then have to move the Pipper, and therefore the Boresightline, over the Target. Once you press the Pickle Button the System enters the distance to target to the bombing computer. In theory you can lock the ground anywhere, however you might have different return strengths on different areas. So to get the best precision you should "lock" the point you intend to use for the measurement, so most likely your target.

and @Bremspropeller The color of the grass also comes down to where you are... or more ON what you are... If you are in Brandenburg, especially south of Berlin you have mostly sand as the ground, and so the grass is more brown and dry in the summer (We even have an official desert there...), however i've never ever seen grass this dry in Niedersachsen (Lower saxony) ... So if you really want to go down that rabbithole, you can't compare the DDR/GDR with the BRD/FRG regarding the tone of the grass.

That are some great news, Thanks! Do you Guys plan on adding them to the Bombing Table as well?

I've tested them besides the one above with altitudes of 400, 450, 700 and 1200 ft. All pretty much on target, but more errors the higher I got (as anticipated). But no problems of hitting a target with a string of bombs. I would say I'm confident of destroying a truck with 4 bombs at 450ft agl and 500kias. But as mentioned above, I don't use the Laydown as intended with a visual IP, since I don't have a Human WSO + we simulate the F-4F and it never had Laydown, however it had something called CCOR in Hi and Lo. So we use it to replicate the functionality of the CCOR Lo mode. Like I described above, I set my desired drop parameters in the Bombing Table and adjust my IP to TGT range so that I get a depression of ~150mils. Then I just fly towards the target and one the piper is above the target, I pickle, and most of the time hit my intended target.

@BJ55 Sorry, I wasn't at my PC for a bit, bute here are some pictures from a Tacview - Clip. was using 450 TAS and 250 ft MSL, 2000ft IP/TGT Distance for I think 136 mils (Just use what it gives you), Bomb interval 0.16s and Bomb 2 on TGT. I pickled with Pipper on center of the Target area and Bomb 2 hits pretty much where I hit. nullnull

As far as I know, it was a "should" I can try to make a Clip for you in the next days, when I'm back home

This happens when you reconnect after a disconnect. You need to cycle the AAR switch before reconnecting.

This might be a strange Bug just with my PC and DCS Settings, but in the Rearming Menu I cannot select, or not even see, all Bombs on the Inner Wing Pylon. It ends with the GBU 10, but the MK 84 or GBU 8 are outside of my screen, but I cannot scroll down. Only if I remove some Weapons I'm able to see the other Bombs. nullSee the Screenshots below to see what I mean. This might be something for ED but maybe HB also can do something about this or anybody has some sugestions for me. null
