Cool Breeze Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I've recently been going through the Harrier training missions again and found myself in a bit of a odd situation that's repeated in the Instant Action Missions. Once you start the missions going into the Stores Page for the 2.5" rockets you are greeted with dash marks instead of the loaded rocket type. Digging in to the stock loadouts in the Mission Editor shows FFAR Mk. 1 HE loaded in the LAU-68's. Changing the rocket types to a listed type, the FFAR's aren't on the list apparently, then reloading the mission shows them being recognized on the Stores Page. I demonstrate this with the screenshot of the 68S's being loaded on one pylon and the mission loaded rockets on the other. My assumption is that in one of the updates the rocket types were updated and now the older missions that have the FFAR's loaded out aren't being 'recognized' as a valid weapon thus the dashes. A track file is attached please let me know if this is a bug or just something that is in the que to be updated.

Cunctator Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 FFAR rockets have been removed from the Harrier's possible loadouts with the last update. Apparently they were never used by the USMC with our version of the Harrier. Hopefully all missions will be updated accordingly. The AV-8B can now only load various types of Hdyra 70 mm rockets on pods with 7 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Breeze Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 That would explain why they aren't being recognized in the stores page for sure!

RAZBAM_ELMO Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Yes. FFAR LAU-68 options and TER LAU-68 options were removed as well as LAU-3 options. This is intended but I will make note that the instant action missions and TRG missions will be adjusted to reflect this.

deltatango Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Bump. 24 June 2021. DCS OB ver 2.7.2.8165 and this is the same for day and night pinpoint strike missions. Weird that the 3D model of the LAU-3 pod still shows in ME and game, but you just can't select them. It must be a nightmare keeping track of every single mission's backwards compatibility.

Epiic_Penguin Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 (edited) this is still not fixed in 2022, i've run into quite a few bugs in the training missions, including rockets not being selectable, not being able to slew the waypoint in the waypoint edit training, and much of the TGP and TV terminoligt/symboagy and buttons have changed. otherwise great training missions, best so far except for the errors.
