HOF

HOF; I'm guessing that this means Height Of Function. How do I adjust this number for the GBUs?

HOF is only for CBU, GBU do not use this.

Okay, whatever! You obviously don't know, seems like you just wanted to chime in and correct my typo. You can't answer this?

Actually he did.

 

In detail, HOF aka Height of Function will tell a SFW or CBU when to open up. Along with RPM you will effectively control dispersion / footprint.

 

And if it was typo on your end and you meant CBU's, then that is done in DSMS INV pages (see manual).

- Hold on, first, loose the attitude, please.

- Second, how am I to know it was a typo?

- Third, you ask a question that has been answer hundreds of times in the forums, easily found and you are upset I did not jump to your command to answer?

etc.

-Lastly, you got a module with 600+ page manual with all the require information and you did not think to try to find the info there?

The dispersal footprint of the bomblets depends on the Height of Function (HOF) and RPM spin setting in the DSMS/Inventory weapon configuration setting page.

page 65

For CBU weapons, OSB 17 and 18 allow setting of spin RPM and Height of Function (HOF)

page 292

 

CBU Dispersal Area. From the Inventory pages, you can also set the area that you want the CBU bomblets to cover (aka the footprint). Higher values for HOF altitude and RPM spin result in a larger bomblet footprint, but less dense coverage. The steps to set this are:

1. Press DSMS INV (OSB 5)

2. Press the OSB (1 - 11) that corresponds to the CBU station you want to set.

3. Press the CBU OSB.

4. Press the OSB that corresponds to the type of CBU that you wish to adjust.

5. From the HOF (Height of Function) OSB 18, select the desired burst altitude. The greater

the value, the greater the dispersal.

6. From the RPM OSB 17, select the desired spin setting. The greater the value, the greater

the dispersal.

7. On the store page, press LOAD (OSB 9) to save your changes.

8. Press STAT (OSB 1) to return to the main DSMS page.

When the alleged error means the difference between a laser guided weapon and an unguided cluster bomb, describing it as a typo is a little rich. And when the message you failed miserably to convey correctly as a result receives a completely reasonable response, it might be far wiser to wind back the ire.

 

His response was completely justified and correct, unlike the original question, and definitely unlike the response you gave. To question his knowledge under those circumstances is neither acceptable, or warranted!

 

Naturally there will be no apology from you - for obvious reasons!
