Cmptohocah Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 Hello, is the air resistance modeled into free falling bombs trajectory and if it is would it be possible to get some sort of a number on it? I am guessing it would change linearly with altitude. The reason I am asking is that I plan on making 4km altitude level bombing runs with Su-25T :pilotfly:, so I need to factor this into my calculations. As far as I know the system will not give "launch" resolution above 3000m altitude. Thanks, Cmptohocah=CMPTOHOCAH
Chrinik Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 It gives launch resolution for dumb bombs all the way to max altitude and is very effective in conjunction with laser-assisted CCRP bombing using the Shkval TV and laser ranger. Spot target with TV, turn on laser, dip down until the target is in the HUD and hold the trigger. Diamond appears. HUD gives you fly-to que that you simply follow until the bomb/s drop automatically. Obviously wind will deviate the bombs, but if there is no wind, you´ll see all the bombs hit relatively close and around the projected impact point, if your approach was solid.

Plan is to perform level bombing run at high altitude, so no dipping involved I'm afraid :) Cmptohocah=CMPTOHOCAH
esb77 Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Plan is to perform level bombing run at high altitude, so no dipping involved I'm afraid :) In the CCRP mode the previous poster described you don't actually need to dive when selecting the target point, it's just a quick way to designate the target and get the plane lined up for the bombing run. You can select the target by just slewing the target designator box on the Shkval and then fly to the HUD cues. In respect to the windage corrections, as far as I know the Su-25 has no windage compensation for standard bombs and rockets. The A-10 C has windage correction for unguided munitions (if you learn how to set it up correctly, which involves knowing what the wind conditions are). Callsign "Auger". It could mean to predict the future or a tool for boring large holes. I combine the two by predictably boring large holes in the ground with my plane.
