Flapjacks Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 If you're above 25,000 ft it won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo67 Posted July 8, 2023 Author Share Posted July 8, 2023 (edited) I was above, about angels 28, I can't even get that Laser to arm, no indication on dash even on the climb the indicator light will not come on.

Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 33 minutes ago, Mongo67 said: about angels 28 Correct as is, then. LANTIRN is an old system with limitations. One of which is the altitude limit of 25,000 ft.

VladimirSputnik Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Is here a function IRL to adjust this 25 000 ft setting? What if you are attacking a target on a mountain with elevation 20 000 ft? You will only have 5 000 ft to work with and get into the range of the defences. Just saying, I don't think the designers anticipated the USAF will ever fight in the Alps or Andes (or Afghanistan), but yes, it's old technology But some red guy placed an EWR on mount Kazbeg in the Caucasus and it made lobbing LGBs a bit limiting.

Considering the limit is there for physical reasons, the limit will always be relative to sea level. But it was clearly enough of an issue since later versions of the lantirn pods have a much higher limits (for example the version the DCS Tomcat has) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VladimirSputnik Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Awfully glad for the upgrades It is nice that it is modelled though. If you fly in cold war period servers to keep it like it would have been for the drivers in those days - nostalgic. Thanks for the reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
