Brainfreeze Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Found an instance where CDIP seems to correlate with the TGT point elevation instead of ground under the piper. Track file attached. tgt point entered as 6. with elevation of 1500ft instead of 4500ft ground lvl. Low drag delivery .. upon pickle computer goes to AUTO but does not drop bomb ... I went around with pickle pressed and as soon as a solution for bombing the 6. tgt point was found bombs dropped. server-20231007-145814.trk 1 i9 14900K / 64GB / RTX 4090 / Varjo Aero / Winwing Orion2 + F15EX / Virpil Wrbrd + Alpha Stick + ACE pedals
Solution KlarSnow Posted October 7, 2023 Solution Posted October 7, 2023 This is accurate and not a bug. If there is no active sensor providing the height above target then the CDIP calculation pulls the current designation or closest steerpoint elevation and uses that. Suite 4 as implemented does not have DTED tied into its bombing calculations. Your only sources right now for height above target are SYS, wwhich isaircraft barometric or GPS corrected altitude compared to the steerpoint elevation. Or LAS which is the target pod latched to the CDIP reticle with the laser firing. The other parts of the height above target hierarchy: Air to ground radar ranging, Radar altimeter, HRM and Passive are not implemented. of those, only Radar altimeter an Air to ground radar ranging would help with CDIP bombing. 3 2
