Cytarabine Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Umm. Well not really. This is not Ace Combat. Also if you don’t maintain your lock until impact your sparrow is going to go stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harker Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 With the Sparrow, you need to maintain STT lock on the target until impact. With the AMRAAM, you can safely switch to another target when your missile goes active. Right now, we lack a number of radar functions, such as the ability to switch between the L&S and DT2 targets with NWS/Undesignate (and obviously every radar mode besides RWS). The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Peaches Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 we lack a number of radar functions, such as the ability to switch between the L&S and DT2 targets with NWS/Undesignate I think we already have this feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyn Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 The radar is still in the works so I believe missing UX features will be added later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KR; Sparrow (AIM-7) is radar guided by your aircraft, so keep the lock until it hits the bandit. AMRAAM (AIM-120) has it's own radar, wait for the ACT (ACTive) counter in the HUD to get to 0, then it's radar becomes active and starts tracking the bandit on it's own, after that you can break lock. Sidewinder (AIM-9) is IR guided, lock, fire, and forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagov Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) You must determine as SOI the HUD, then select ACM mode or Vertical mode, and any bandit appear between the vertical lines or into the circle in ACM mode will be blocked automatically, if you want another objetive, unblock that bandit a select vertical mode again, you can use this mode with AIM9, AIM 7, AMRAAM or Gun. ACM mode will be work with helmet mode too. Edited July 28, 2019 by snagov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
