coolhand_5050 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) I'm having trouble locking moving targets with the Mavericks. I can successfully get the Litening pod to track a moving tank in "point" mode -- but as soon as I hand it off to the maverick the crosshairs lock up at a fixed point and the missile will impact behind the tank if it is moving. I've tried using the DMT, as well as the maverick itself and can't get the missile to track the mover. Have tried AGM-65 D/G/H Is this implemented? Edited March 26, 2018 by coolhand_5050
Kang Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 Silly questions first: are you sure your Mav has acquired a proper lock and isn't just slaved to the DMT/TGP point?

coolhand_5050 Posted March 30, 2018 Author Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) Well that's a good question actually --- after acquiring the target in point mode with the TPOD I uncage the mavericks -- then I hand it off to the maverick and hit the TDC action button for the lock. Is that not the correct procedure? should I be waiting for it to acquire instead of hitting TDC action? Edited March 30, 2018 by coolhand_5050 spelling

Kang Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 coolhand_5050, I don't see anything wrong with your procedure. Actually it occurred to me after posting that the Maverick doesn't fire at all if it doesn't have a lock. The next question to consider is: are you sure the lock is actually on the target vehicle? Some scenery objects like buildings can get locked on. I found this to be especially troublesome with the CCD variants.
coolhand_5050 Posted April 1, 2018 Author Posted April 1, 2018 Yes I'm locked on to the correct vehicle -- however I believe I was relying too much on the TPOD instead of using the Maverick itself to adjust the firing solution as opps did in his video.
CHRISXTR3M3 Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 anyone figure out how to get the mavs to work on A2A targets in the AV8B yet? I can do it in A-10C but AV8B doesn't seem to want to maintain lock and track of A2A targets. In A-10C I the mav screen will lock, maintain lock of moving target whether A2G or A2A and maintain a track on screen until firing off weapon. Anyone else experience this? User Files for AV8-B, X55
