fixed Kh-65 flightpath bug

[Capn kamikaze]

Dropping these from a Tu-160, tried it at 5000ft and 22000ft, they then start spiralling all over the place, rolling inverted, then soon after crashing.

For some reason I only reproduce this issue over Syria, but I see you have the issue over Caucasus. Could you please attach a track?

[Capn kamikaze]

Here's the track, the Tu-160 is towards the north east, and will start releasing them shortly after it makes a slight course correction.

Many thanks.

I also have this issue in the Gulf Map.

The Kh-65 issue has been fixed internally. I'll see if your SCUD issue is fixed too.

[Flappie]

@BrzI I thought you were saying the SCUD missile was acting the same (because of the name of the mission) but I see there is not SCUD launcher in your mission.

I checked your mission in our internal build and it works as it should. Wait for the next OB update: it will be fixed.

[BrzI]

Yes..sorry - it was confusing. SCUD was working fine.

Looking forward to the Kh-65 update in the stable build.

I removed the Beta - spent too much time looking at bugs at not enough time flying and enjoying the sim.

Hi folks,

the behaviour of the Kh-65 has been fixed. Thank you.

But there is another bug that has shown up.

If a full Tu-160 loadout (12 missiles) is launched the missiles start overlapping as they suddenly randomly accelerate or slow down. There is no damage modelling (no biggie) but they should not overlap..

Thanks

Looks like quantum uncertainty principle to me - they are no where and everywhere at the same time

Next time, it would be better to create a new thread for a different bug, especially when the present thread is tagged "fixed". 

Anyway, thanks for the heads up.

Here is the .trk file.

Three Tu-160 launch 12 Kh-65 each. Watch them leapfrog each other on their way to target.. The swans start West of Sochi.

Ah, so this is how you do it. I thought you had found a way for a lone bomber to release 12 missiles at a time.

Why don't you add some space between the bombers?

Or simply ask them to release their missiles one bomber after the other?

I'm not even sure missiles do "see" each other in real life.

I think you are missing the point. Spacing between bombers is not required as there is no lateral flight path drift.

The issue is that a single bomber will launch all 12 cruise missiles which will eventually end up overlapping. That should not happen  imho.

Thanks

[Flappie]

In your track, I see three bombers, next to each other, launching four missiles each. I didn't see one bomber launching 12 missiles. I tried to do this, but couldn't.

If you can produce such a track, please do.

[BrzI]

Here is the recording and the mission that it came from....3 swans launched a total of 36 cruise missiles.

Many thanks. Issue reported.

[Flappie]

Hi @BrzI. Although it is not mentioned in the changelog, the overlapping Kh-65 issue was fixed in today's OB.

[BrzI]

Thank you..
