finger Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Hi all, A few words about bomb release modes. MAIN -TACTICAL RELEASE- by button WEAPON RELEASE,all bombs are dropped in ARMED status.(always) EMERGENCY-by two buttons EMERGENCY RELEASE INNER and OUTER. There is a choice between ARMED or UNARMED by switch TACTICAL RELEASE.Red light is ON or OFF. EMERGENCY with no pilot input(no release button).This is fully auto-release . In case that load is dropped(electrical or mechanical failure),automaticaly is released load from second pylon in pair(1-2 or 3-4). This el. circuit is powered stright from EMER.RELEASE in breakers section. Very quickly for start,I will by proceed tomorow. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Harle Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 You sure have a nice stockpile of info on that plane.
finger Posted April 16, 2015 Author Posted April 16, 2015 You sure have a nice stockpile of info on that plane. Yes a little bit + 10 yars of maintenance on 21MF. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Flagrum Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 ... EMERGENCY with no pilot input(no release button).This is fully auto-release . In case that load is dropped(electrical or mechanical failure),automaticaly is released load from second pylon in pair(1-2 or 3-4). This el. circuit is powered stright from EMER.RELEASE in breakers section. When pulling too much G, the stores separate from the aircraft. I always wondered, if this is just by overstressing the material or if there is some sort of failsafe mechanism at work. I can imagine that too much G can damage the weapons, the suspension, the pylons - there are immense forces at work on very small mechanical parts. But in DCS, we hear just the same *clunk* noise as if the stores were releases intentionally. Also there is no visible damage on the pylons. So my question is, is there a special mechanism that separates the stores in this case? Is the text I quoted perhaps describing exact that very mechanism?

This system (circuit)is primary designate for preserving transverse (yaw) stability of A/C. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
finger Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 D3-57D release unit. Before loading an external stores,must be this device mechanicaly locked-up by special key. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
