CCIP with rockets

The thing with terrain masking and Hind's ballistic computer is, if you are unmasking behind something like a hill, and your targets are below your level (which they most likely are), then the computer will be inaccurate. It's ideal when used over mostly level terrain.

 

Did you carry other weapon types besides Shturm + S-8? If so, ballistics computer may have went nuts. Any loadout other than default presets may cause either buggy or realistically broken behavior from what I understand. I had it once when I tried to have both S-8 pods and GUV-8700 gunpod for example.

Only sa8 and shturm,

and range on fixed reticle seem to work, but cross doesnt move....

One small point - you need to be pointed at the ground for the sight to work correctly (so some decent speed on).

 

Yeah, fixed reticle needs to be pointing downward for system to calculate anything.

So you can't hover and ambush anyone with a fixed cannon or rockets, or even missile.

Seems obvious I know, but easy to be 'too level' and it won't be able to calculate CCIP properly. If you are positioned correctly you can get good accuracy out at max range.

 

Yeah, easy to get so as trying to stare the moving sight, instead fixed one.

But it still does work so odd manner.

If you want to sit there hovering and shooting gun/rockets, just use fixed sight and fire-and-adjust.

 

Doesn't really work as you are so inaccurate and you start to gain speed to get nose down enough for proper ranges.

Just tried over flat ground and the cross accuracy was mostly okay, sometimes sending rockets long. The more irritating thing is the lack of fragmentation from the rockets. Unloading two whole pods into a column of 7 trucks and APCs gave me only two kills.

I had them in correct position, as I said, 30mm gun sight works fine, only rockets sight is "stuck" at fixed reticle

Never had that myself. What position was that switch on the Armament panel? I have it in the UP-AUTO position + the lower one left of the sight in AUTO

 

Short, not listed example video(should be 1440p after YT processing)

- in the beginning i switch rockets - 30mm and you can see the reticle move

- ok hits first run

- second run i'm over a little higher ground than the targets -> rockets are a little long

Yep it is UP to auto and the bottom left one next to sight is also auto
