Can't fire AGM 88 in OOP

[v2tec]

What I have done so far:

- Master Arm on

- AG-Mode

- selected HARM

- activated TOO-Mode

- choose Target (also visible on HUD)

 

 

I press the button to launch the AGM, but it doesn't fire. Why?

When I turn to SP-Mode, I can launch the weapon.

 

 

Everything looks exactly as in Matts Video...

Hit uncage after choosing the target.

 

 

You'll need to make sure your sensor select action button is on the active HARM MFD.

Forgot to mention the MFD part

Your selected target needs to have the H OFF (hand off) above it, by pressing the uncage button.

You are forgeting:

 

-Sensor select switch left (or right if your harm page is on the right) to make harm page SOI, to check this make sure there is a little diamond in the top right corner of the MFD.

-Uncage button to hand off the target to the missile, you will see a h-off indication.

-Shoot.

You also want to set for Hostile instead of All.

Regarding 'set for Hostile instead of All', this does not seem to affect the HUD display, I'm still seeing my home fleet 70+ miles away in the rear-view mirror.

 

I also had that set and fired off a HARM in SP (Self-Protection) mode; that bastard made a U-turn and head back toward 'the boat' also. Thankfully it didn't have the legs but I would assume one of the other ships would have taken it out:music_whistling:

SP doesn't have any criteria except for prioritizing the highest threat emitter, at least in DCS. It also doesn't work correctly, since it might not update to a new highest threat automatically, as it should, until you press the RESET button in the HARM SP page. If you don't update with RESET, it might go after a previously selected emitter that is not the current highest threat, such as that Ticonderoga cruiser in your carrier group.
