I figured out some parameters for a low-level offset pop-up attack for the Sabre. I am not saying this is the correct procedure, but it works surprisingly well.

If you put the chart in your Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard folder, you can access it on your kneeboard. Is there a folder which will only display it in the Sabre?

Yes, put it in the "F-86F Sabre" subfolder, which you'll probably need to make.

 

Like so:

C:\Users\[username]\Saved Games\DCS\Kneeboard\F-86F Sabre

Pop-Up Attack

 

Nice plan MBot, gonna try it out. Skillful illustration too.

 

Q. How do you adjust sight depression angle?

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.

You can do it on that "dive-bombing-box" on the left side of the panel.

The one with placards?

Yes. The placards are basically just a help to select the right mils setting for a certain condition. But you can also ignore the placards and set the reticule depression as you want.

Could you post an in-cockpit tutorial video?

Yes, it works well on the Sabre with fixed sights being the only difference for me and I'm now trying it out with the Mig-15. I drew the plan on a piece of paper.

 

Next I'll try it with the Mig-21.

Nice video Holbeach.

 

Here is my take on it (no video, just a track), flown a little more aggressive and showing setting up the switches. As usually I am over-Ging the Saber...

 

Edit: Doh, I realize I had already attached the same track in the initial post :)

Posted (edited)

With regard to the switches, in the 1st and last run, only 1 switch is used, the bomb selector to both due to the fixed sights being used. the 2nd run is manual pip bomb sight set to 3000 ft.

 

We use 2 different styles of attack to achieve a similar aim, either way is good fun. :)

 

 

Here is the Mig-15 version.
