Problem with AI-dropped SD2 trajectory

Recommended Posts

AI-dropped AB250 w/ SD2 munitions fail to hit the designated target

 

Note that this is for ME-selected, AI-dropped attacks. This is not a question of player skill, but the use of the automated, AI aircraft.

 

It applies even on days with good visibility and calm (no wind) conditions.

 

In tested cases, the bombs fall short of the target. It seems to be more pronounced at higher altitudes. This suggests that the bomb trajectory calculations are incorrect. It may be related to the winglet bug (see May 2020 bug report, LINK )

 

To test this, an AI aircraft was set to bomb a point on the runway at the position of the controller hut. This bombing position is shown in the mission editor screenshot.

 

A second in-game screenshot is shown showing the position of where the munitions actually landed. As can be seen in the screenshot, the entire bomb scatter falls well short.

 

This accuracy problem does not apply to any of the regular bombs (e.g. SC250, SD500, etc.) that I tested. They all hit more-or-less on target.

 

 

Track file attached.


The tests were done on DCS Open Beta version 2.7.2.8165.
