[INVESTIGATING]Uncommanded Handoff (Maverick)

[Frederf]

Automatic handoff of Maverick missile should only be initiated when pilot presses and releases TMS forward. Currently if TGP is in POINT track mode and slews the TGP the handoff will be initiated when slewing ceases.

 

Additionally it was seen that handoff is attempted even when missile is in the 3 minute power up state. Handoff should not be attempted until the missile seeker clamps are released and seeker is slaved.
