I have been using the original TurboHog JTAC/AWACS mod in the Ka-50 for a while. Works brilliantly even on latest 1.5 and 2.0.

 

I just downloaded the latest JTAC/AWACS mod from the downloads and installed it with JSGME.

 

The coordinates are now in MGRS..."MN411008".

 

The Ka-50 uses Lat. Long. inputs so how do I use MGRS in the Ka-50?

 

Meanwhile I will go back to the earlier version.

 

Thanks.

That's great. Thanks very much.

:thumbup:

 

Using the Latest World Alpha in Nevada is still difficult to use Lat. Long. I will try the new JTAC MGRS system with the converter!

 

Regards

  1. In ABRIS locate the quadrant MN40
  2. With the ERBL function place the Marker on the lower left corner of this quadrant
  3. Move to the right (Easting) 1,1 Km, note also the angle, often sligtly different from 090
  4. Move up (Northing) 0,8 Km, perpendicular to the previous angle. This is the position, with resolution 100x100m, passed by the JTAC

eh, the ABRIS doesn't have MGRS? (fairly certain, why would a Russian moving-map have a US-Military grid coordinate system?)

MGRS grid is by default turned off but you can activate it in the Map Options.

In the same menù you can turn off the Geographic (lat lon) grid in order to declutter the screen.
