xanstin Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I am at a loss. On the second target for Pinpoint I use the maverick but keep getting blue on blue kill for a paratrooper which is by the apc I am guessing. Is there something I am doing wrong here, should I just use guns? Looking at the tacview the maverick hits then the troop moves to the burning wreckage and dies.

Sabre-TLA Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Yes you should use guns. This is a Danger Close mission so you need to assess the situation and pick the appropriate weapon (even if different from what the JTAC is asking for). The blue on blue is because the troops are getting killed by the splash damage from the maverick. I recommend guns when troops are close by. The mission only cares that you eliminate the threats not necessarily what specific weapon is used. However if you use guns on all targets you might run out of ammo before all threats are eliminated so you need to use your best judgement.

xanstin Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 Switched to guns if they are anywhere remotely close...drop bombs on the next one JTAC says target destroyed no further tasking but Mission doesnt continue with who to contact next...just radio silence. I have done this probably 10 + times now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre-TLA Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Best to post a .trk of your flight. Some trigger is not firing properly if you not hearing from the FE after the target gets splashed. Are you using VIACOM or any mods?

xanstin Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 no mods. I just ignored the lack of calls on the last run and just contacted Uzi 1-1 and it was fine goin forward after that. Badger was the problem after the MK-82 on the troops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
