[REPORTED]Harpoon HPTP mode immediately flies to BRG direction instead of towards WP


Recommended Posts

Posted

When I setup my harpoon in BOL mode, I have WP2 selected, select HPTP and I can see on my HSI that the line draws out towards WP2 as expected. I want the missile to turn 050 upon hitting WP2, arm at 10nm and destruct at 30nm. The symbology on the HSI and SA page looks correct, the missile is going to fly to WP2 and then turn right over the target. When I fire the missile, it immediately turns 050 from my jet, as if I did not press HPTP, and it keeps going until it destructs. I have made multiple attempts, it does not fly towards the WP, regardless of whether I still have the WP selected, or I switch over to a different WP (as in the attached track).

In addition, if I use R/BL mode with a turn point, it doesn't fly to the WP, instead it heads straight to the target point.

 

select a WP, press HPTP to make it a turn point, designate a different WP as a target, press Mode to go into R/BL mode. The HSI symbology indicates the path I expect. If I fire, the missile ignores the TP and instead heads directly to the target, as if it were a normal R/BL mode with no turn point.

Getting same issue here. Will try to post a track later, but so far only tested in multiplayer only and not SP.

[ALREADY REPORTED]Harpoon wont fly to HPTP

 

When I fire the AGM-84D in BOL mode, with a HPTP selected, the missile will turn immediately to the bearing selected in BRG, instead of flying to the turnpoint before turning.

 

In the track attached I fire two missiles. First with WP2 as HTPT and then a bearing of 166. Second with WP2 as HTPT and bearing of 090. Screenshot of the configuration of the first missile.

HARPOON HPTP

 

I´m noticing a very odd behavior on Harpoon´s launches when I use HPTP option. I set properly the weapon´s Search, DSTR and BRG options, and a turning point (HPTP). When I launch Harpoon, it goes straight to the final bearing, instead of going to the TP AND THEN turn to the bearing.....IS it a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

[ALREADY REPORTED]Harppon HPTP not working

 

I've just done a training flight with Harpoon and i've done every step in the Wags' video but if I select HPTP the missile is launch as FXP.

 

I've selected the wayopint, and heading, shoot the missile and instead of reaching the waypoint and then turn to the designated heading it turns immediately, just like it would do in FXP mode.

 

The video I was watching was this:
