redmatthew Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 Is it possible to set the delay on the bombs? I seen the new mission that is out. In the article its mentioned that they were dropping the bombs at 50' and 100'. When i do this i blow myself up. Is there a way to set the bomb delay yet? thanks
Nytehawk Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 From the pinned FAQ at https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/282007-dcs-mosquito-fb-vi-early-access-faq/. Can we choose different fuse settings for bombs in the Mosquito? We are redesigning how fuses are chosen and used in DCS World; this is a core feature for the entire game. When complete, it will allow delay and other fuses to be used on the Mosquito; however, this is not specific to Mosquito development.
Nealius Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 The OB changelog mentions this: Quote Adjusted simulation of post-penetration physics for delayed-fuze bombs. They will now penetrate the ground and objects, and they will decelerate accordingly. Prior, delayed fuses didn't work on any bombs on any module. So I'm surprised this didn't get added to the Mossie as well, considering the aircraft is impossible to use as intended in it's current state. You can't run anti-shipping missions on account of the missing rockets, and you can't do bombing missions on account of fragging yourself due to the missing delayed fuses. Until we get those two features she's a nice pattern and strafing bird. 2
Darrylx444 Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 I've used the dive-bombing method with it against ships with some success. Just don't wait too late to pull out.

redmatthew Posted September 20, 2021 Author Posted September 20, 2021 I have also used the dive bomb method. Also i drop at level at 500' when i am level and was able to hit, just have to figure out at what point to release from.

How long before we get basic historical timed fuses for Mossie bombs in DCS? This year, next year, sometime, never? Meanwhile, other combat flight simulations have provided this historical feature from the start for years and years. Hope we get timed fuses with DCS soon. Happy landings, Talisman 1
