TWS Range Scale. & TWS Scan Coverage BARS


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

As the title , in TWS when you move the cursor into the left /right MFD gimbals you can change the BAR scan. like RWS.

TWS Range Scale. TWS has four range scales: 10, 20, 40, and 80 NM. The 160 NM is not available. The 10 and
20 NM range scales feature a fast antenna scan rate (65 degrees/second) to detect and update targets in closer proximity. The 40
and 80 NM range scales use a slower scan rate (48 degrees/second) to increase detection sensitivity.

TWS Scan Coverage. Either a 3 bar ±25 degree or 4 bar ±10 degree scan pattern can be selected by pressing the
OSB associated with either the azimuth width or the number of bars. In TWS, scan width and number of bars are not
independently selectable. Bump AZ is not available in TWS

TWS/Single Target Track (STT) Transitions. Acquisition is initiated by coralling the bugged target with the
ACQ cursor, then pressing the TMS FWD and releasing. If the TMS is not released within one second, spotlight search is
initiated. STT is only allowed on the bugged target. In TWS when the pilot bug the target ACQ cursor remain stuck in the bugged target, if the pilot move the cursor then the ACQ cursor unstuck from bugged target.

You can do side cursor azimuth bumping in TWS. It's just not possible when you have a bug. This chooses between the 60 and 25 degree options. This only changes the azimuth setting directly. The bars may or may not change as a consequence of what bar setting is available associated with the various azimuth choices. E.g. A6/B2

i agree for the above but i mention when you do not have bug and you want to change bar scan automatically with cursor movement side to side in MFD. like RWS bar cursor selection.
