Tholozor Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 If you have a GPS weapon (JDAM, JSOW, SLAM) selected, and it hasn't finished aligning, you'll see 'TXA DEGD' to indicate their alignment status is incomplete. 2 REAPER 51 | Tholozor VFA-136 (c.2007): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3305981/ Arleigh Burke Destroyer Pack (2020): https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3313752/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elphaba Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 So what ah-owns when you get this in the air after taking off in a hot start jet? Any way to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the INS is already set from the hot start what else is there to do? Saying “align the weapons” doesn’t explain what got missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, select the weapon on the stores page and wait 7 minutes and 30 seconds for it to align. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elphaba Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Yeah. Done that. Then I deselect the JDAM so I can designate a SPI using the HMD and when I re-box the jdam I get degraded again. Doesn’t it stay aligned or is the manoeuvring tho wit it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elphaba Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Great so as there’s no way to visually place a spi through the hmd with any weapon selected, That mans manual mode much less useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Harker Posted July 10, 2022 Solution Share Posted July 10, 2022 Great so as there’s no way to visually place a spi through the hmd with any weapon selected, That mans manual mode much less useful. You can place down an A/G designation with selected JDAMs just fine. What's the issue? If you want to do it via the HMD/HUD, you need to be in A/G mode. The current JDAM target will still be displayed separately as a diamond, if it's different than your current A/G designation. You can also select other A/G weapons, while leaving the JDAMs boxed. They only lose power if you explicitly de-select them, but you can select another weapon and de-select it to return to the JDAMs. 2 The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs.

Once the weapon is powered it should remain powered. Selected shouldn't matter. What if a bandit pops up at the IP and you have to choose missiles for a moment?

Again, you only loose power/alignment if you specifically ‘deselect’ using the OSB button next to the weapon name. You can go ahead and select an AA weapon using the HOTAS, or even select another bomb type, you can then return to the JDAM, just don’t press the OSB next to an already boxed JDAM. ….And this seems to be correct from looking at a leaked JDAM manual online. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
