Su33 Guided A-G missiles/bombs??

[Stratos]

Can the Su33 or the Mig29 shoot any kind of A-G guided missile or bombs? Of course using mods, I know the real one can't. Will like to use it on smart A-G missions.

If yes, can someone tell is wich ones and how to use it??

[borchi_2b]

well when targets are assigned, you can for example use the a-10 with gbuґs, but it is important that the targets are assigned and you have the targetbox in the hud. do not know if it works with the russian jets

[Stratos]

I'm thinking more in missiles like the Kh-29

[borchi_2b]

when targets are assigned it might work.

the best is you test it

[Stratos]

Thank's Eric, I started my training, but is not the pipper moving a bit too fast ( well in reality is moving amazingly fast ) so is very hard to aim. any way I can slow it down?

[S77th-konkussion]

You might get this to work using "easy radar" I think there's a command for "cycle targets" or some such thing.

[Stratos]

Is possible that If you load AG missiles your dum bomb CCIP failed to work correctly? I loaded a couple of KHML25, destroyed a AAA and then tried to attack a convoy with dumb bombs, and the CCIP is not working any idea??

 

P.S. Are you sure you sended that golden canopy for Flanker?

[Stratos]

Thank's Eric! I tried Su-27-30FONAR on Flanker and works great!! a bit of rep for you man!!

 

P.S. Will try to post pics when I get home and can try it too on LOCKON

[Gen. Dragon]

Yes, you can, by editing the MEinit.xml file. I modified the Su-33 to be able to carry Kh-29L A-G missiles. You then lock and launch them in the same way as the Su-25. I modified the loadouts so that I can add six Kh-29L missiles, six FAB-500 bombs in pairs of three on two pylons and four A-A missiles, its a heavy loadout but, very destructive. Just open the MEinit file with notepad, search for the Su-33, look for it's pylon configuration and add the compatible weapons you would like. I also added the Kh-65 nuclear cruise missile to the Su-33's loadout. I can post my MEinit.xml file for download if you would like to use it as an example.

[Stratos]

Sure, will like to take a look, specially to the Nuke :)

[tim_k]

As for Su-30, (humancockpit=yes) it can use TV and Laser-guided weapon.

IMHO, the same can be done for Su-33 by editing meinit.xml.

I will post the file within this week, as for the nuke, it has trouble rendering a nuclear explosion, 90% of the time it makes a normal, small explosion. Graphics options and machine specs may have an influence with this problem.

There are no nukes modelled in Lockon (and quite right too). Both Kh-55 and Kh-65 missiles are armed with conventional warheads and make a normal size Bang. Ignore the information in the Encyclopedia.

[Gen. Dragon]

Unfortunately, that is correct, however, it still is fun to use the missiles as they have a very long range. The Kh-22 has a 1000 kg warhead and still does a lot of damage, it takes out the CVN-70 with one shot. Maybe myself or someone more experienced can someday make a mod for the missiles to render nuclear explosions.

[Stratos]

Is possible somehow use the Antishipping missiles as Antiradiation missiles? Or even better, exsit any kind of missile that can hit a PRE-MARKED target?? You know as anthishioping missiles but on ground.

Thank's!

[Gen. Dragon]

Yes, the Kh-41 and Kh-22 is quite easy to launch if you have a ground target marked. In the Su-33, select ground attack mode and select the missile, activate the correct radar mode (default "i") and lock the target. When you lock the target, nothing will be displayed but the missile's guidance will be set. Activate the weapons launch override (default "Alt+w" on version 1.02) and launch it.

[polluxware]

It is possible that i can use "KAB-500L" on the SU-25T version? I can see it on the game starting splash screen, and i know that this laser guided bomb can be used the "T" version.

 

I tried to edit the meinit.xml file, but in the player controlled su-25t can't been seen it...

 

§sorry about my english ;)

[RedTiger]

I've been messing around with this on the Su-33 this evening. The problem is that as soon as I fire a missile, the pipper jumps to the center of the flight patch marker. Other than just for fun, I'm not seeing the point of this since you really aren't achieving any stand-off ability. You're getting just as close as you would if you used dumb bombs and with very little increase in accuracy.

[Stratos]

It depends of the missile and your hability really, try to max the zoom. Best way to work is, activate the pipper, put it where you can remember it is and where is easy to aim later, deactivate, put the target on the point you selected, activate, target and BOOM!

Works great and is damn fun

Gen. Dragon can you post an example of your file pls... be nice to use as a guide.. i'll make a mess other wise.

 

Thanks mate

Nope, unfortunetely in game there is no another point of laser source to aim bomb than Su-25T. Also Shkval can't turn too behind plane so it can't aim it, cause when we release bomb it slow down and fly behind us..., but IR 25T can deploy these bombs. But don't worry, add next pair of Vikhr and you will be have a'la TM (39) version of Frogfoot :D

Sorry that the file is not up for download yet, I need to get the file from home to work as I only have internet access at work and I had a serious problem with removable data storage (removable HDD burned out along with many, many mods and backups). I am now using my brother's flash drive so, I'll post the file as soon as possible.

good luck with your techie problems... and thanks, when you have time mate.
