Vfa-81 Fix Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 30-40 degree dive, Flight Marker on an aim-off point just beyond the target, flying for 1G and 450-460kts. Good CCIP cue, pickle. Bombs fall long, even if I pickle 100' short. Show us a track please. I usually fly 45° profiles and have good results. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Harlikwin Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 I tend to fly shallower dives, more like 25-30 if I can get away with it.

Nealius Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 You guys might be on to something. In the past I used to aim for 30° bombing runs and never really had problems. Recently I've been going steeper.

Recently I've been going steeper. Ironically the steeper the angle the more "Accurate" it should be IRL. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

McShetty Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 I don't fly the A-10 but like others have said, I see no difference between Harrier and Hornet. Can take out a tank almost every time with a single Mk82 and almost guaranteed with two. I think the biggest thing for me to get past was to make sure the + is not moving up too fast. I don't know if this is a real thing or even allowed but by very slightly pushing the nose down as you're about to drop will make the timing easier. And I mean very tiny amount so you're pulling maybe 0.8G. Clearly less than 0G and you fly into your own bombs. You also know to zoom in A LOT. So just your HUD fills the whole screen.

Well the difference between the harrier and the hornet is that the hornet has a radar to compute slant range to target for accurate CCIP cross placement. The Harrier has the DMT/ARBS to roughly do the same thing, just optically if your target is locked correctly. Of course the ARBS has a problem correctly ranging things with low angular change rates, (so stuff you are flying directly towards as an example). Of course if you aren't using the DMT/ARBS thats a whole other can of worms. But it sounds like you are putting the thing on the thing very well.
