LGB's not releasing, any ideas?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Got my new AV8B toy yesterday and I'm still at the lower end of the learning curve. Unfortunately we don't have all training missions yet, so at the moment I'm struggling to get some LGB's on my target. I did a search but didn't find an answer to this specific problem I'm having. Maybe anyone here can help me.

 

I have the aircraft loaded with a few GBU-12's and the targeting pod. This is what I do (sorry if I don't use the correct abbreviations, still learning):

 

Master arm on

Select A/G mode

Select stores and select bombs (12)

Make sure fuse is set on "nose"

 

Select DMT on right mfd

Select "code"

Set and enter laser to 1688 on the ufc

Select TPOD on right mfd (and wait for it to power up)

Depress the TDC slew button on my HOTAS when pointed in general direction of the target area

Slew to my target and leave it there

Set TPOD from TRNL to LASER

Set SAFE to ARMED

 

So far so good.. Flying towards my target in a straight line and I see the counter counting down.

 

When the counter reaches below 10 I press the pickle button.

 

The second I press the pickle button (counter at ±7) I immediately get 4 dashes on my HUD, but no bombs are being dropped.

 

 

I tried keeping the pickle button pressed while the dashes are showing, I tried pressing the pickle button later (counter below 5 and vertical bar already dropping down on the HUD), but still no bombs are released.

 

Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I was so much expecting it to be my own error, that I forgot to look in the "bugs" sub-forum :doh:
