Been meaning to find those, thanks

What am I reading? I don't understand. Explain each point in words for one picture pls.

Hello,

 

Here where i found informations for this attack: KOREAN AIR FORCE TACTICS, TECHNIQUES & PROCEDURES 3-3

Offset Pop-Up Definitions

 

• Initial Point (IP)—The steerpoint where the last leg to the target begins. Normally, theIP is prominent, unique, and 10 to 20 NM out from the target.
  
• Offsset point (or Action Point/Range) —The point/range from the target where you take offset for an off-set or indirect pop-up attack.
  
• Pop Up Point (PUP)—A position at which the pop-up attack is initiated. The point where climb is initiated.
  
• Climb Angle (or Pop angle)—The angle of climb to be achieved following the initiation of the pop-up.
  
• Pop-to-Pull-Down Distance—Distance from the pop point to the pull-down point. This distance is predictable for a specific set of delivery parameters.
  
• Pull-Down Point (PDP)—Altitude where you start maneuver from the climbing to the diving portion of a pop-up delivery.
  
• Dive Angle—The selected dive angle for weapons delivery.
  
• Apex—The highest altitude in the pop-up delivery profile.
  
• RA: The planned "Release Altitude"
  

 

Typical Offset Pop-Up:

In this maneuver, the pop-up approach course is at an angle from 15 to 90 degrees from the final attack heading. The approach course angle-off varies with the planned climb angle to permit the pilot to acquire the target as soon as possible and main-tain visual contact until completion of weapons delivery.

 

Approaching the Pop-Up: The pop-up is initiated over a preplanned pop point(normally with airspeed greater than 450 KCAS). System avionics can aid in finding the planned pop-up point.

 

The pop point may be coincidental with this ground reference, or adjacent to it.

 

Initiating the Pop. At the pop point, select desired power (afterburner or Mil)make a 3- to 4-G wings-level pull to the desired climb angle (POP ANGLE) and initiate the desired chaff/flare program. The target should become visible.

 

After popping, maintain planned climb angle and monitor altitude gained.

 

Pull-Down. Approaching the preplanned pull-down altitude, make an unloaded roll in the direction of the target. Perform a 3- to 5-G pull-down to intercept the planned dive angle.

 

Make corrections during the maneuver to compensate for minor errors in thepop point or unexpected winds in the climb to apex at the desired altitude.

You normally achieve planned apex altitude about halfway through the pull-down maneuver.

 

 

Hope it's help.

We were able to verify this data during a training. It's work

Work but extremely fun and effective. Are we going to have offset ques in the HUD similar to the F-16 when using target action points ? OA1, OA2 etc. as I know in BMS we were able to load Popup attack profiles. Weapon Delivery planner was an awesome tool and program for this, Wish we had something similar in DCS. Neat as we are getting closer with Deka's implementation of a data cartridge. Would be neat if we could set up folders in an external directory to load and augment outside of DCS.
