Right, so MK5 HEAT rockets wont fire. Probably any rockets.

OK. So I got 4 pods 19X MK5 HEAT on four underwing stations and 150 gallon tank on centerline. 2X AIM-9P5 on points.

From About 2K feet slant distance to TGT, in 30 deg dive at 350 KIAS.

Pylon Power ON (on right panel) with Tank pump ON

Weapon pylons ON for rocket stations. In up position.

Weapon selector in Rockets

Master Arm (Guns) ON in UP.

Pipper  set to Manual -12 mil depression.

Flaps up, gear up

ROCKETS DO NOT FIRE with  First Detent, Second Detent (Press to SHoot), Weapon Release.

Somebody changed something and now its all hosed.

Quck test, works fine here. Both FFAR and Hydra's.
Been throwing a lot of these (Hydra variant) the past few weeks. They always launched.

If they don't work, why are his rockets firing?

 

Did you also rotate the weapons selector to rockets?

Nope does NOT work.

Be sure to try with MK5 HEAT.

My pipper was in MAN, -12 mil depression Dogfight modes were OFF. Radar OFF. rocket bearing stations ON. Center pylon and wingtip stations OFF. 

ROckets do not fire.

Almost without fail, if I have weapon problems in the F5, it is because I left SEL JETT up after dropping bags.

Having said that, I just dummied up a mission with HEAT rockets. Both FFAR and Hydra type, and both LAU canisters (7 and 19) I can't hit water in a rainstorm with them but they all fired.

You really should attach your mission file and a trk for us to look at.
