[NOTED] AG weapon separation due to high G load

Recommended Posts

Empty S-24 launchers/rails separate from pylons at the same time as launchers with rockets during too high G maneuvers.

 

 

As I understand uncontrolled weapon separation is due to overstressing part of the pylon lock or weapon attach point so the heaviest weapon should separate at lowest G load, ergo empty launchers should not separate under high G at all, or at much, much higher G load.

 

 

 

Similar situation is with UB rockets– if you have for example load: 2x UB-16 + 2x UB-32 you will lose all 4 of them simultaneously like the mass of pods does not matter.

 

 

As far sa bombs, Grom missiles and fuel tanks are concerned - It seems that overstress feature does not work with them (tested up to 11G)

During my tests, fuel tanks and bombs separated from the aircraft due to excessive G as advertised.

 

However, I can confirm the Kh-66 Grom, as well as the UPK-23-250, the SPS-141-100 and SPRD-99 remain on the aircraft even when pulling > 10 G.
