ponch17 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Hello there .. Quick question Is that possible to shoot 2 AIM-54 on 2 different target from pilot seat I can shoot one after one as jester lock them in STT mode and but I can't shoot ask him to lock them in BWR tws 2 target .. he didn t do that ... I make something wrong ??
Swordsman422 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 I haven't delved too much in depth with TWS modes, but it seems like Jester locks enemy targets in TWS as soon as he detects them. I have pointed my nose in the general direction of an enemy flight of 4, squeezed off 4 Phoenixes with only a hot trigger cue, and killed 4 targets. Sometimes as a Tomcat pilot I feel a bit out of the data loop.

If you fire the firing priority will change to time to impact and the priority on the remaining contacts will decrease by 1. It is possible to change the priority but the rio must do it.

ponch17 Posted March 16, 2019 Author Posted March 16, 2019 ok i Try again but it doesn t work ... I miss something .. I tell jester to scan radar 100nm then as soon as he find a target I can see it in the hud inside a diamond .. but when I shoot just one aim 54 goes if i shoot an other he track the same bandit I aslso tell to jester to scan first TWS bandit haed .. that's what he do but same scenario he lock only the first one and then didn t switch to second one ?Did I have to break the lock manualy to relock again !? well I try but most of the time he relock the same one probably because it's the most dangerous one .. ?
razo+r Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Don't tell him to lock a bandit. Simply let him scan around and he will automatically lock them with TWS. Verify that by looking on your TID that the bandits have numbers from 1 to 6. If that's the case, launch a Phoenix and watch the number turn into a countdown. If that's also the case, fire the next one and so on.
Emmy Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 In TWS, Jester should sort targets on his own and once Friend/Foe is determined and the targets are prioritized, you should be able to “ripple” Phoenixes at multiple targets. I’ve downed four TU-162s at around 60 miles in practice. You just have to let Jester work his magic inside of 100 miles.

Coxy_99 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 So just let him scan, Fire it off and watch the timer?
Emmy Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Let him scan, sort and prioritize.. then fire. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] http://www.476vfightergroup.com/content.php High Quality Aviation Photography For Personal Enjoyment And Editorial Use. www.crosswindimages.com
Santi871 Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 The TWS launch priority for the phoenix is done automatically, you just need to let jester tag the friendleis so they get excluded.
Gerd-Wiem Posted March 16, 2019 Posted March 16, 2019 Thanks, i had the same problem and had given Jester always comands at SST. But now i let him sort without my commands.
ponch17 Posted March 16, 2019 Author Posted March 16, 2019 ok I git it ... triple shot with AIM54 to 3 mig ... that s crazy sorry for the mistake I was trying to tell jester to lock BVR with TWS enemy .. just wrong ... thanks for the tips
Cytarabine Posted March 17, 2019 Posted March 17, 2019 Yep the Tomcat is an absolute monster in BVR with the Phoenix. Lock up ripple off, await explosions. I love the Persian gulf Alert 5 mission splashing two before they even realise what is going on, stepping down to Sparrows at 10-15nm to kill most of what’s left with a couple of sidewinders to mop up if needs be.
