I THINK , the shkval is not working properly.It won't track to target when pressing datalink to egress on a designated target. Its waaay off the mark. Is it not supposed to anymore or is it broke?

 

I'm refering to this feature...4:00 on time scale in this video

set the contrast and the brightness ;)

L'importante non è stabilire se uno ha paura o meno, è saper convivere con la propria paura e non farsi condizionare dalla stessa. Ecco, il coraggio è questo, altrimenti non è più coraggio ma incoscienza.

Longitudinal (forward or behind the target) or lateral (left/right) or both?

If I remember correctly, the target elevation isn't taken in consideration, so the camera will most of the time be pointing on a spot forward or behind of the target necessitating a manual correction up/down.

I'm not talking about locking a target...I'm talking about tracking too a target via data link\ingress point...look at the video at 4:00...it will "snap" to target point.

Could be ,but I did try it at multiple altitudes...does it work for you??

It does work.

 

If you mean to recall s KABRIS stored target position using a datalink panel?

 

As I can do that same as in video.

 

1) reset targeting system

2) select target type and target stored by pressing target type as ma y times as needed in datalink panel.

3) select DL = Download

4) check you don't have a HMS active.

5) Uncage shkval

 

To store a target properly, you need to range its distance with laser before storing to KABRIS.

 

 

The Shkvall will not lock on target recalled from KABRIS, it simply sleeves itself on that position when uncaging. And you likely should get it just near it, not exact position.

No...not the same thing,...or is it??? Look at time stamp 4:00 on video....were talking about the skhval auto slewing onto an already saved target on the datalink when uncaging.In the video it slews right to the target...mine is waaay off when I do it.The target is not from me,its from a wingman,so the range data should already be there.This is on the instant action mission "insurgents" on Caucasus map BTW.

Folks, please test before posting!

Tried the same mission, sent the AI to scout and all DLink points were significantly off vertically. The coordinates are correct, but not the altitude.

 

In the track file I'm flying sideways and the reticle will stay perfectly above the target.

 

I suspect there is something wrong with the altitude calculation, basically adding the wingman's radar altitude to the target altitude.

 

ED, if you're working on the upcoming BS3, that's cool, but it would be really nice if you stopped pushing incomplete/broken updates into open beta.

 

Thank you
