RED Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 The AIM-9X does not boresight when caged without a lock tone. It stays in the current attitude instead. If there is a lock tone it does boresight.9Xseekerboresight.trk

RED Posted February 16, 2020 Author Posted February 16, 2020 What information are you basing this on? It used to be different if I remember correctly. It also seems somewhat strange if the seeker looks at a random position and outside of HUD FOV. Also, I did not check if it's only the HUD symbol that is doing that and the seeker is actually bore sighted.
ED Team NineLine Posted February 16, 2020 ED Team Posted February 16, 2020 Ok, I will ask the team, but I can't really report something that seems strange, need something to show its wrong, if that makes sense. Thanks. Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

If so, the AIM-9 seeker head will follow that if you have master arm on and AA mode selected.... If you do, try turning off the JHMCS (not just using the RECCE switch as it simply removes the display while leaving the system active). When I have it turned off completely, the seeker head stays bore sight locked until I uncage the seeker head.

Did you get any feedback on this? I don't really know if my point got across. I'll try again. No lock tone in STT, seeker slaved to radar LOS: If you cage the seeker, it will stay at it's current attitude, e.g. 20° right off boresight and level. You can roll the aircraft left and it will stay in its current attitude, now pointing up. If you then reselect the AIM-9, the seeker returns to boresight. With lock tone in STT, seeker slaved to radar LOS: If you cage the seeker, it will move to boresight correctly. I could not find any documentation saying that the seeker should go to almost random attitudes. It's either slaved to the radar or at boresight. I added another track.9Xseekerboresight_2.trk
