Hiya!

 

An intriguing article on wikipedia caught my attention the other day, and I wonder if anybd tried that before (LABS?)

 

Military buffs will enjoy this one.

AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS

 

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

My guess is no, you would have to impart a lot of energy into that bomb to get it to do that. By the time the A-10 is even close to vertical it is not going to have much energy left.

 

Not to mention that you might rip the wings off just diving to get up enough speed.

In the book "Every Man a Tiger", Gen. Chuck Horner describes that this maneuver was trained in the 60's by the USAF. Its purpose was the launching of nuclear weapons and then getting out of dodge pretty fast. But, hey, the USAF did train for this kind of stunt with F-100's**, which were fast and powerful jets. For the A-10, carrying a light load may be possible. But I have my doubts if the Hog is hauling two big Mk-84's, or sme Mk-82's for example.

 

In short, never tried it, have to.

 

** = if I'm not mistaken. :music_whistling:

This is an amazing sim! 'Nuff said!:pilotfly:

Can the A-10 fly fast enough to make that possible?
That's a good question.

Only one way to find out...
All we need to do is get into the cockpit then we will get our answer.:pilotfly:

anybody considered that aiming is impossible with dumb bombs with this method ?.... i know why they only thought about ...........

this is just hilarious...

There are two types of fighter pilots - those who have, and those who will execute a magnificent break turn towards a bug on the canopy . . . .

"...Five hundred knots. Switch down, button pressed...."

Can the A-10 get this speed in level flight ? Seems to me you must come out of a dive to do that ! And what about the resistance of the frame of the plane (wings, rudders, ...) !

I doubt it !

Posted

The frame falls appart at arround 400-450kts if you try to pull out of it a little harder...

...the few, the proud, the remaining...

Posted (edited)

come on!!! try it!!! tracks are immensely appreciated!!! Even if you snap the wings, post yer tracks haar..

EDIT: you can start off with easy VID objects like bridges or buildings. It can be hairy with the A-10 but get like a pair triplet of Mk82s (or try AIR) and post yer tracks. lets see it people :D

Will the FCS even let you release ordinance inverted, is there a way to override it?

Didn't the North American A-5 Vigilante use the same delivery technique when employing nukes? Had some sort of crazy bomb tube in between the engines if I remember correctly which aided plane/munition separation at supersonic speeds - that and the forward momentum helped the A-5 bug out before the really big bang going off!

Not doable... at 450 I snapped the wing. Besides, the pilot gets a qeue like CCRP of when he's to flare up and when to drop the bomb.. I guess at least...

It works, sorta. You can definitely toss it 'backwards' but it doesn't go very far in that direction. Just do a loop, then release when you get to 50-45 degrees while still pulling towards ground. Just tried it several times. The loop itself is way larger than the toss distance.

Your point is well taken. However, I wonder how well CCRP mode might work with this. Depending on how the computers handle it, this could be like an extreme toss bombing.
