CATM Weapons A-A , A-G

[Geraki]

• CATM-120B/C, CATM-9M/X, CATM-88D and TGM-65G can simulate missile fire.
  Which means you can fire invisible missiles but those captive rounds remain on pylon.
• Simulated missile hits the target. You can see them in the Tacview.
• Loadout Weight and Drag are calculated as graphic shows.
  No weight loss after simulating a missile fire as the real CATM remains on pylons.
  Invisible missile has no weight or drag while they are on the pylons, but the flight model takes real missile weight and drag into account after those missiles are fired upon the target.
• So basically it calculates weight/drag of real CATM on the pylon. But not for virtual rounds before they are fired.

If they categorise it as "pods" this would mean a lot more loadout options on aerobatics servers too.

Would love to see the AMD pods aswell.

It would be great to have this!

+1 on this!

I can't stress it enough; this would be incredibly useful for realistically oriented communities. At the moment, we have to use shoddy scripts or simply giving each airframe immortality if we want to practice A-A without actually dying, which is less than optimal.

That is not F-16 only… those stuff can be also used on:

- A-10

- F-14

- F-15

- F/A-18

- B-1

- Typhoon

- …..

 

nearly every western jet should be able to load that stuff… also good for training missions and so on….
