oho Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 What WP-height should I use best for a medium search of the harpoon when I chose R/BL and medium / low hight?
Frederf Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 WP elevation doesn't matter. Weapon uses own sensors. (I think?)
WOPR Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 I've never tried to set a WP height for the Harpoon so I won't claim it's not possible. However it seems like the intent is to set the cruise height on the weapon format using "FLT" (from memory, I'm unsure of button label text). Terminal height is always sea skimming.
Northstar98 Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 As I understand it, the Harpoon does it on its own using its RADAR altimeter. At the moment though (I think) the Harpoon has issues with low/medium search heights - though the current implementation is a bit questionable as it negates the point of sea-skimming.

The harpoon is questionable, because even when they hit they hardly do any damage.
Svend_Dellepude Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Use Walleye instead. You can get close enough to destroyers to launch one, and one walleye will take it out. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win10 64, Asus Maximus VIII Formula, i5 6600K, Geforce 980 GTX Ti, 32 GB Ram, Samsung EVO SSD.
Northstar98 Posted September 19, 2020 Posted September 19, 2020 The harpoon is questionable, because even when they hit they hardly do any damage. Probably a combined problem of the Harpoon having some borked number in its configuration file and the damage models of ships (which is quite lacking to say the least).
