new feature for a-10c How come I don't need to boresight Mavs to tgp?

[razorseal]

As viper drivers you know you need to boresight (bsgt) the tgp with the mavs or you cant do handoff properly. 

 

With the a10, this isn't the case. I set spi on tgp, then soi to mav then slew to spi with China hat and I'm good to go. 

 

How come? I would ask if it isn't modeled but I doubt it as I think a10 has more functionality compared to the f16...

 

Just curious what makes it different.

Mavericks were part of the A-10A/C Loadout from Day 1,
For F-16's A2G as a whole was an After thought.
It also depends on the Type Of Maverick being fielded.

So why did this get moved to the wishlist then? Got moved as if i was asking for a feature when in reality I'm curious if it's a missing feature or a10 and maverick does something differently. Your post indicates as if it's as designed.

ah ok. Thought you were also a mod here. lol.

 

Yeah it's def not a feature request. I'm just curious if the process is automated, or if it is indeed a missing feature. SMEs would have to chime in I think.

Once Upon a Time, yes.

But not since Oct 2020.

It is indeed a feature request as at the time it was not something we had planned to model, so we have moved to wishlist for now. Thanks.

It’s not a missing feature.

You don’t bore sight the maverick to the TGP in the A-10. The maverick is bore sighted in the HUD. 

It is always perfectly boresighted in the game. That would be realistic for a jet that has flown with that same maverick and it has been previously boresighted by a previous pilot.  I believe you can adjust it if you want, at least I want to say that you used to be able to. I’m not at my computer right now but I’ll do it and send a track file when able.
