TEMPEST.114 Posted December 25, 2022 Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) I've set their alt to 40000, spd 420kts, I've got a waypoint about 5nm before the target with a waypoint action of 'Carpet Bombing' above 40000 and release auto with a spread of 50ft, and another waypoint in the same direction about 5nm past the target area to keep them on track as they drop. They don't even open the doors. They are AI set to Ace. They are dropped 80 GBU 38's Where am I going wrong? I've seen videos on YouTube with this aircraft doing carpet bombing but I can't get it to work. Edited December 25, 2022 by Elphaba
tripod3 Posted December 25, 2022 Posted December 25, 2022 GBU is not freefall carpet bomb type, it is guided weapon and shouldn't be released in carpet mode. Use Mk bombs instead Mr. Croco

Use Mk bombs instead I tried that too, thinking it was the munition type, and they still wouldn't drop. Are the 'bomb points' bugged like the embark/disembark points are, in that they mustn't be moved from the inside of a waypoint's circle? Is there some minimum distance from the waypoint that the bomb point has to be for them to work?
TEMPEST.114 Posted December 26, 2022 Author Posted December 26, 2022 Seems it's the altitude. I can't drop from 40,000ft like I'd like to. I have to drop from 16000 and below. Is this a figure set somewhere in the mod or hard coded in DCS due to wind/projectile physics <lol> etc?
tripod3 Posted December 26, 2022 Posted December 26, 2022 (edited) B-2 has these sensors OPTIC = {"Sniper XR FLIR", "Sniper XR CCD TV"}, It seems they have limitations, like pilot's eyes Edited December 26, 2022 by tripod3 Mr. Croco
