Shadow KT Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 So, this is more of a question than a confirmed bug as I am not sure how it is supposed to work, but.... After the update, if you are under ~7500 feet AGL, the JDAM just misses its target, is that a bug or feature ? Seems like it is missing its whole terminal phase of guidance. Is this, because it needs a minimum altitude and air time to get to target ? Right now it overshoots the target, if released under a certain altitude (as mentioned above). Is this a CCRP (DLZ) bug ? If it was to let you release earlier it would hit and have enough time to guide (if it needs minimum air time to guide) I've noticed that if the top carrot on the CCRP reticle (the one which indicates the start of the release window) is not on the 12 o'clock position, the accuracy degrades. The lower it starts (hour wise) the less accurate the JDAM is. As long as the top carrot is not lower than the 9 o'clock position, you should get a near enough hit. Is this correct behavior ? If yes, where is it described ? I made a track and a mission to test it out. Another interesting thing is that if you play on the Instant Action - Easy - Fall mission, the JDAM guidance is completely broken. There is a bit of a small wind, but that shouldn't be a problem.... I've compared it to the mission I made with the same location (elevation is around ~2000 above sea level) and the difference in huge. In my mission I release from 7500 first and it hits (near hit) (that is 5500 AGL), second run is from ~6500 (~4500 AGL) and it misses On the Instant Action Mission I tried 7500 first (as I did on my mission) and misses by a lot, then I climbed to 9500 (~7500 AGL) and it misses even further, not in the same post code. If you go to 10000-10500 feet, it will get a near enough hit. Another reason I have to believe this mission is bugged is that I tried getting a track out of it twice and it got a broken track both times. Had no issues with any of my other tests [ATTACH]208531[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]208532[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]208533[/ATTACH] 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
onib89 Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 I don't know if this is a correct action of jdam but i agree with you. i have the same ''problem''. Anyone else can confirm that? it is a bug or not?
