correct as is Can not fire HARM when targeted by a SAM

[Hulkbust44]

In A/G when you have MUD, a HARM will not fire regardless of PLBK override condition outside of SP. Only way to fire a HARM is to H-OFF via TOO despite the SP PLBK logic.

reported we will look into it,

thank you

[BIGNEWY]

Spoken with the team this is correct as is, and handoff is required

1. PLBK - indicates only that system detect SP PB threat and you should return to HARM page
2. HARM - indicates that weapon ready to launch to SP PB threat

If "HRM OVRD" button is boxed only "PLBK" will be shown.

if HARM is the selected weapon ( opened on HARM page) - SP PB will not work.

for SP PB threat switch to A/A mode, where SP PB will be unboxed by default, note we do have issue with HARM PLBK via AAM which does not work if AGM-88 is in PB/TOO mode and HARM is selected.

 

thanks

That I can understand, but the issue is that if you have HARMs on the jet in A/G, SP BLK will not work even without HARM selected. You can see it's trying as HARM appears, but pressing weapon release flashes PLBK and the weapon dosen't fire.

You have 3 Self Protect Pullback cues. 

HARM - The Harm detectes a threat and  HARM OVRD is NOT boxed. It will Fire on the pickle
HARM - HARM crossed out. The Harm detectes a threat and HARM OVRD is NOT boxed but HARM is inhibited from firing due to A/G not ready.
PLBK - A pullback condition exists, but is being overridden (HRM-OVRD boxed).

So as far as I know it is simulated correctly.

Problem is, in A/G without a HARM selected I get HARM on the HUD and whatnot, but upon weapon release PLBK appears for a second and nothing happens. Are you saying that you can't be in A/G without a weapon selected?

If you have a HARM on board and your HARM OVRD is not Boxed and your HARM detects a possible leathal threat the HARM will be first priority weapon and will launch in self protect mode on the pickle. 
However if you have a HARM on board and do not want the HARM to override any weapon, make sure HARM OVRD is boxed. Now you will get the PLBK indication if the HARM detects a threat, but the priority will still be on the selected weapon.
