KenaiPhoenix Posted October 20, 2022 Posted October 20, 2022 Hi, after my share of A-A combat I have decided to start learning A-G combat and the art of dropping bombs. Im currently trying to properly use the targeting pod but many times I drop my bombs with CCRP and targeting pod my bombs falls a couple of miles short or a couple of miles too far. Am following one of the guides I found and have try a lot of bombs. I have also, sometimes, hit right on the spot but many times i just miss all of my drops. I select the correct profile, use the targeting pod to aim at the target. Align the azimuth steering line to my flight path maker, and press the weapon release button when the solution cue "falls" to my flight path maker. And sometimes hit, many times just miss by just some meters. At first i though that I was just too high, so I lowered my altitude (it is my own mission without ani-AA guns, so it is fine) to about 4.500 but still got too short. I also remember that, when I do the start up of my F-16, a align my INS in norm until i got the RDY on the DED, even the INS indicator havent reach to 10. Could this be the problem? So my question is: Am i doing something wrong or forget how to put some values? Am i too high? Or is this just a skill issue and i just have to practice my flight path? Thanks!

Thanks! In norm you need to hit enter each line (if they are correct, if not you need to enter them). While aligning the INS don't load or move the aircraft. 1
Frederf Posted October 22, 2022 Posted October 22, 2022 If TGP aiming and steerpoint aiming at the exact same point give different bomb impact locations, that would be good to know. The airplane doesn't derive relative positional values for TGP and direct to steerpoint the same but a direct comparison would investigate best. 1

While aligning the INS don't load or move the aircraft. In Norm you have to confirm the Lat and the Lon line, in STOR you must not! Also if you are on a somewhat sloped parking slot with minimal movement, hardly noticeable...hit the Parking Brake and then do the alignment. Also I noticed that on multiplayer servers the alignment sometimes fail! 1
KenaiPhoenix Posted October 31, 2022 Author Posted October 31, 2022 Thank you all for your answers and sorry for the late reply, I was too busy and tried to create a track file. It looks like is a "skill issue" problem. When trying to replicate it i was missing significantly l hit many of my targets, specially if I can laser guide the bombs. Thanks again!
