Florence201 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Just tried to drop CBU97 in a Low Level Pop maneuver and upon Pickling, nothing left the jet. I was above hard coded BA of 1500' when i released. I had to come back around and drop in CCRP Level Delivery. I'm not the only one seeing this issue. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Frederf Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Can you provide a track? Here's a pop up with C-97 that was successful. As far as I am aware CCIP won't inhibit release regardless of weapon arming. It will show you all sorts of visual warnings about duding but it should still come off. But the high HOF combined with a pop up is going to severely limit what deliveries produce an immediate pipper-on-HUD condition. I tested coming out of 20,000 in a 30 deg dive and pipper didn't enter HUD until ~8000'/450KCAS and left the HUD again 4000'/480KCAS. 45 deg dive had a window of 12,000'/375KCAS-3,000/500KCAS. Outside of these windows the PBIL shows a delay cue indicating that WR has to be held and the CCRPish solution symbols have to be flown to release. Sorry, I don't have NTTR installed so I can't view your track.F-16 C97 Popup.trk
Florence201 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Posted November 21, 2020 I have the feeling that possibly pickle button may not have been held long enough for CCIP delay release. I did have good indications in the HUD at release [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
randomTOTEN Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 I watched your track, You had no valid CCIP pipper displayed on the HUD when you pickled. The jet did register your pickle command. I took control and was eventually able to destroy a large number of the targets using your SMS settings.
SunDevilPilot Posted December 13, 2020 Posted December 13, 2020 I am having a similar issue. Generally occurs with the F16 fully loaded with max number of CBU bombs. I can pickle the first set of bombs, say a single pulse pair. Subsequent drops will get hung up and will fail to release. Seems to happen only with the 3 quantity stations and not when the jet is configured with the 2 station hard points.
