Hi all and merry Christmas. 

I would like to know if there is a known bug for the HARM. The problem i encountered is that when i land to reload HARMS they are not working on any mode. If i deliberately crash the plane and i spawn again on my slot everything works ok. I tried every mode and every scenario i could think. It is just not working when i reload them. Sorry for my english.

Hi and merry Xmas,

 

all seems fine when we test, can you include a track replay showing the problem? 

Maybe you forgot to power on the HARM after rearm?

 

thanks

I am experiencing the same issue. 

 

HAS mode works fine for the initial volley of two HARMs, after landing and rearming, the WPN sub-screen for HARMs never resets back to the grid -- it remains blank. None of the OSB buttons work, except the SRCH (OSB4). But even then, you can't change the TBL, so it's pointless. 

 

If, during the landing and rearm, I shutdown the engine and everything entirely, when everything comes back up the HAS screen on the WPN sub-screen seems to be working, but unfortunately the radar sights never show up on the HAS screen crosshairs again. So I'm not able to select the radar sight to get a lock and launch. I've done everything I can think of to get the HAS screen to reset, including cycling the AG88 PWR off and on again. It doesn't help.

 

If during in-house testing you are able to launch the second set of HARMs after rearm, please share with us the sequence you go through to get the WPN screen to work again. 

 

Version: 2.5.6.61527

 

Thanks and cheers!

So irl, you normally wouldn’t hot tea-arm the jet. I think wrt HARMs, the ALIC connection may need resetting to allow new HARMs to talk to the 1553 bus. 
 

not sure how much of this is modeled. Shutting the jet down cold SHOULD reset everything. Once you have powered up the new missiles, do an RS on the WPN page and see If that helps.

Ok. I gave it another try to collect the track and it worked! Even after a couple hot rearm I was still able to use the WPN page and the ALIC worked fine. I just made sure I turned off the AG88 in the A-G before requesting rearming (but I haven't checked to see if that makes a difference).

 

However, on my final rearm I left early before the ground crew said "rearming complete". That seems to have made a difference. The WPN page was not reset and the HARMs could not be made to lock. I'm not sure if I had done that every time in the past, but I suppose I may have. 

 

I'll do some more investigating, but I've attached the track if you want to take a look. 

 

Thanks again.

Here is a situation where the ALIC does not track at all. I have everything configured the same as above with 11 and 19 in TBL1 but the tracking radars never show up on the ALIC for me to select, lock, and fire upon. However, they lock and fire upon me over and over.

 

A few times you can see them track in the ALIC when I turn away, as if ALIC is pointed out the rear of the aircraft. ??

Here's a track showing inability to get to the A-G main screen to even turn on the HARMs PWR. Nothing I do seems to get me back to the A-G screen. 

 

This has happened in the past while in the air as well.

Update: You can see on the trk that the INV is missing from the SMS page to get you back to the main A-G. I have found that fiddling with it, clicking back and forth between WPN and SMS will sometimes and eventually get an INV to show up, but it's random. Very frustrating.

Leaving early will definitely cause problems. Make sure you wait until they're done, because I think the last steps they do are to set up the aircraft's Stores Management System.

True.

 

However, if you look at the track above, I've had issues with ALIC not tracking even after a clean start into the mission. 😞

 

Thanks for the response, Machalot!

 

Cheers.

Ok. I went back to the trk and worked with it. I found I was able to hit the A-G button and get it back to the HSD -- and THAT'S when it's in A-G mode. If I then subsequently select SMS, it now shows HARM and the INV is available on OSB-4. Also, after making that change to the SMS, now when I select the A-G, it will toggle the INV -- however, it continues to show HARM rather than NAV when the INV disappears.
