how to go from TGP to MAV

[LA1]

How do I acquire a target with TGP then pass the locked target to THE mav?

Make a SPI with your TGP (TMS FWD Long) then slave all to SPI (China Hat FWD Long) and your maverick will be looking at it too, along with everything else.

I have done that, I think I then do a TMS up short to lock on so I can fire the MAV. I have tried ground stabilize and it takes a while to lock on so I can fire the MAV.

Also remember that the Mav's locking range is much shorter than that of your TGP. So, even though the Mav is looking at the exact same spot as your TGP, it may not be in close enough range to get its own lock on the target. A way around this is to use corelate mode which will allow you to fire without a target lock. I think the mode is available on all Mav's except the AGM-65D. You still use TMS up short to get a lock but the Mav will be locked on a "point in space", not on an actual target.

You do not need to ground stabilize unless you're trying to force correlate. Not to insult your intelligence, but remember to switch to narrow field of view prior to locking. Also be careful if there's other targets close by, the MAVs may lock on to a different target.

 

As for force correlate, I mainly reserve it for larger targets or SA-9/13s. Since they have high mounted missiles, the centroid tracking logic sometimes has the mav flying right between the missile containers and the vehicle chassis. Happy flying.

Okay assuming youve found the tank..

on the left screen is your tgp, press left control (TMS) and up until you see a 'P' on the screen (this is point mode), then press V for around 3 seconds (V is the coolie hat switch- pressing it long 'syncs' your maverick (which should have been selected on your left screen (DSMS) before the tgp came up- if its not selected there go back and select a mav) to the video feed.

Then click on Mav on the bottom of the right screen until you get a green frame around it.. This means you now have control of the maverick not the tgp.

Whilst flying towards the target, keep pressing left control (TMS) and up until the crosshair changes to two flat lines (once you are in range, you are then locked) all you need to do is then press weapon release, which is either button 2 or space bar..

really do hope this helps..
