HUD "X" when using GBU

[GaletteSaucisse]

Hello, i would like to confirm with u

 

When i use GBU 12, sometimes I have an X on my HUD, it means that the plane is not in a position to drop ?

 

And the up arrow means that i'm too low ?

 

 

 

 

 

The X appears when I am too slow / fast and when I am too low?

 

thks to u

The X is when you are too slow for launch.

 

The ↑ is obviously when you are too low.

Ideally you want to be within 400 to 500 knots IAS

Does the X in HUD always indicate low speed? I have the same issue with CCIP bombing and rockets. The rocket pipper never shows and the X never goes away. I've combed through manual, searched for other threads about X, flipped every switch in cockpit....:helpsmilie:

Hello folks.

I've just finished reworking the AGR mode for the radar, also known as TAS.

 

This also required a rework for both CCRP and CCIP modes. Most of the changes are internal and are not visible. The HUD elements remain the same.

One of the reworks that affect both modes is the bomb release limits table, actually tables since they are quite big and change on bomb type.

 

So now you will see a big X across the HUD when you run afoul of one the limits. This does not means that you won't be able to release the bomb, it just means that it is dangerous for you to do so.
