Will F/A-18C be able to send ground target coordinates to each other via datalink as A-10C can?

No

I think in some way. Might not be coordinates but I think you'll be able to show your TGT designation on eachothers SA format. That "TXDSG" option has something to do with it. Wags spoke of it briefly.

Link 16 can provide a range of combat information in near-real timeto U.S. and NATO allies’ combat aircraft and C2 centers. The dis-played information includes an integrated air picture with bothfriendly and hostile aircraft locations, general situational awarenessdata, and amplifying data on air and ground targets, including airdefense threats.

 

 

 

J3.5 Land Point or Track

 

It will likely depend on whether or not the F/A-18 implements the message and what systems the message is implemented for. I don't know if the F/A-18C Lot 20 can generate all the messages.

Is this functionality tied into the TGT page or is that only for JTAC assignments?

[aaron886]

No

 

So you don't know, but you still answered the question?

The TGT PT page is used for sending datalink coordinates between members of a L16 network, in the J3.5 format.

Ie. the answer is ‘yes’
