Wind Correction

Is that possible in F/A-18C?
Yes if HUD is uncaged your VV will compensate for flight path effects from wind.

 

If you are referring to dumb bombs I'm not sure.

That I would like to know too, as at least Russians made such system to their current aircrafts to get dumb bombs delivery accurate as smart bombs without pilots inputs up to 5km altitude release at any weather.

 

ARBS in harrier is said to be by harrier pilots more accurate that using hornet radar and targeting pods. Almost like using laser guided bomb. Similar that Shkval system has for Su-25T (based military testing documents).

 

So would be interesting why not hornet have a such capability if it knows what are the conditions?

Well my last auto drop of mk83 from hornet at 12000 feet missed by a good 1000 feet due to a tail wind. I'm going to try it again same parameters except use ccip and see how it goes.

 

Either not modelled yet or not a thing I'm guessing.

I don't think there's wind correction... In one of my missions that have a good 20kt wind, even MK151HE rockets often miss by at least 100ft if flying crosswind on the attack run, firing on the cue.

The impact point or release point (CCIP or AUTO) takes into account the wind at the current altitude (via the velocity vector). However, if wind direction and/or force change with altitude below the release point, then you will get an inaccuracy. AFAIK, this was the situation on Hornets in 1991, at least.

 

This is correct.

@DarkWaynard, I was meaning Laste Wind corrections like in A-10C
Ah gotcha, I spent a lot of time in A10C but didn't get into the LASTE. I'll check it out thanks.
