H60MTI Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I'm trying out a random mission for the Eagle. I'm used to the Hornet where I need to enter the laser codes into the weapon before releasing. I'm not seeing anything for that in the Eagle. I tried taking out this ship with the GBU-28, big boy bomb, but it was waaaaay off. Is there a screen where I need to enter the laser code prior to deployment? I have to be missing something... Former SSG US Army UH-60A/L/M Crewchief "2 To Fly!"

pokeraccio Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Hi, try to have a look on F15 DCS Manual pages 420-421 and 497-> 501 there are also some limitations/conditions to meet: 1. Laser arm switch should be set to ARM. 2. Valid laser code must be entered. 3. Weight Off Wheels and gear handle up. 4. Altitude is below 25 000 feet.

H60MTI Posted June 26, 2023 Author Share Posted June 26, 2023 I figured it out. It was problems with the GBU-28. It doesn't link with the laser for some reason. The GBU-24 is spot on! 1 Former SSG US Army UH-60A/L/M Crewchief "2 To Fly!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H60MTI Posted June 26, 2023 Author Share Posted June 26, 2023 Ohhh...I'm not at the computer right now, bedtime for kids, but do they different codes listed? I'm used to everything being 1688...

pete_auau Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 default codes are set to 1688 so no need to change any code if your happy with 1688 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconus Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 From the F-15E patch notes (known issues): Quote It is not possible to change the GBUs laser code with the kneeboard.

BlueF16 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Make sure that the TPOD is also lasing at the freq. ie. 1688 whatever matches the bomb. The TPOD someitmes shows different numbers that 1688 by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H60MTI Posted June 26, 2023 Author Share Posted June 26, 2023 Well, that would explain it then. If you do the Tilda sinking mission, it gives you a big old GBU-28. Yeah, it's a 5000lb laser guided artillery barrel bomb and would probably just punch straight through the ship but I would of still like to of seen it... 1 Former SSG US Army UH-60A/L/M Crewchief "2 To Fly!"

JetJake76 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) H60MTI is right. I tried that mission, too. GBU-28 didn't "catch" the laser beam. TGP code was 1688, as well as the code for the GBU-28's station, as I checked in the Mission Planner. Mk-84 bombs seemed to be buged, too. I couldn't place the CCIP pipper on the ship when diving. I think the last case was reported here: Edited June 29, 2023 by JetJake76 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GBU-24 is spot on! The GBU-28 isn't really implemented it. The current GBU-28 is a very old model for use by AI aircraft. It doesn't work properly with player aircraft and will be entirely re-done. 1 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

Silver_Dragon Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Remember the weapons as GBU-28 has build / redone by ED. RAZBAM has nothing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
