A/G Point of impact

[emibat]

Hi Guys,
when I drop multy bombs like Mk-82 in CCIP mode, I noted that the  impact point given by CCIP Bomb Cross, is the middle between the first and the last bomb. This happens also in auto mode. Is there the possibility to assign the CCIP Bomb Cross as first point of impact and than the others bombs will follow?

Nope.  It will always be the middle of the drop.

Unguided, or dumb bombs, have a CEP value, Circular-Error-Probable.

Released from whatever height and speed, will vary it slightly.

No dumb weapon comes off the rack perfectly aligned with the airflow - lug release not being simultaneous being one cause - so this “pitching” of the weapon can cause it to wander a little.

Im going to say this sim sounds like it implements a CEP variable, so your aim point may be bang on the target you nominate, but the long and short impacts in your stick are showing the CEP in action.

 

Understand though - I don’t know this for sure, but surely a sim such as this should emulate a basic variable of dumb weapons.

We know it does with regard to cannon dispersion, which IS modelled.
