AIM-54C Mk60 Turns Completely Around After Launch [RESOLVED]

Recommended Posts

I didn't save the track, because I didn't realize this was a bug until watching the (attached) Tacview replay. On the latest OB, I (pilot) launched an AIM-54C Mk60 at a MiG-29S in TWS Auto, targeting done by Jester.

Range was approximately 33.7 nm, essentially head-on, both aircraft doing about 0.9M.

I was at 26,400 ft, target was about 15-16,000 ft.

Upon launch, the Phoenix launched, climbed, and then almost immediately began a hard left turn away from the target. Within about 40 seconds after launch, it was pointing almost directly away from the target, and it held this heading until the end of the mission.

In the cockpit, there were no indications that I had lost the lock at any point (until I began violent maneuvering to avoid the missiles the MiGs fired at me). From the front seat, everything up to that point seemed like it had gone perfectly.

That's likely related to the guidance bug that was introduced in DCS in general, and also affects the AIM-120. That's up to ED to fix...

this issue was fixed, if you are seeing another issue please attach track replay examples and any evidence in a new thread, but as far as I am aware all is good currently
