[ALREADY REPORTED] Mk-20 / CBU-99 Accuracy

[FLCV]

After playing around with the Hornet ive realized that the cbu99/mk20 seems to be quite inaccurate in comparison to the other dumb bombs, it almost always falls a significant amount short of the ccip reticle.

Is this intendet or am I doing something wrong?

 

 

Thanks in advance :smartass:

Had the same issue, may be something to do with barometric vs radar alt or something. Didn't try it much though. Would like to see that I did wrong.

Same here.

Same. Mk 20 were short in a dive and long in level bombing for me.

Ripple also seems to have its issues in auto at least with gp bombs.

Will try further...

[ALREADY REPORTED] Unable to Hit Targets with Unguided Bombs in any Mode

 

Hey guys,

 

 

I have been flying the Hornet all weekend, what a blast; anyway, I can't seem to hit anything with unguided bombs using CCIP or AUTO. I place the "thing on the thing" and release the ordinance and watch F6 as it lands short every time. I am about to pull my hair out at this point, I don't know what I'm doing or not doing. I also can't seem to cause damage to any amour or SAM targets with guns. I'm I just not holding my mouth right or is there something going on here?

Not sure.... I'm not having that issue. Any way you can post a video of it?

[sSkullZnBoneZz]

I don't know how to add videos but here's a link to a track I just saved:

Okay, that would make sense, I am using CBU-99 and CBU-87. When I use MKs if my aim is perfect on vehicles they do hit.

Just for others experiencing the same issue I found the bug report here:

Now I can stop cussing like a sailor now that I know it's not me:megalol:

Can you guys share your fuze settings for the CBUs? I get that they're landing short but I don't know how to set them up.

I have the same problem - I remember in A-10 my accuracy in CCRP was okay - dot in target usually meant hit. Here I have an impression that unguided bombs fall short, while the training smoke bombs fall okay where they should. Perhaps some delay is in default Program?

I tried Mk-20 in CCIP, yes they fell short. I was trying to bomb the top of a hill twice.
