cailean_556 Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) Situation: AI F-15E Suite 4+, with task 'Pinpoint Strike', tasked with destroying a powerplant (Workshop A) using 2x GBU-24s. AI is set to 'Bombing', attack decisions override is 'on'. 3rd waypoint is the 'attack' - alt is set to 20,000 ft. There are ZU-23s guarding the target - however at 20,000 ft that should be a non-issue. AI disregards 'bombing' (but also disregards 'attack map object') and proceed to WP4 and beyond, landing back at the airbase without dropping ordnance. This was tested (exact same parameters) with GBU-24, GBU-10 and Mk-84 2000lb bombs - on each occasion, the AI S4+ did not engage its intended target and RTB'd. When that aircraft was changed to the ED F-15E (which required that I create a loadout that utilised GBU-27s, as the ED F-15E does not have GBU-24s) and the mission was run, the ED F-15E engaged the target as expected, within the parameters set for it. Note: Attached is the mission I am using - it's a WIP mission that I can use to flight-test and do basic combat missions in for any aircraft I own. 00_BASIC MISSION PROFILE v2023.miz Edited November 3, 2023 by cailean_556 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SloppyDog Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 I was having the same problem. What solved for me was to specify to the type of bomb, instead of using AUTO. Mission is attached. I didn't test it after 2.9, so maybe it does not work as advertised. Wingman Attack Command TEST.miz Wingman Attack Test.miz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ED F-15E (the AI one with the Sniper pod) works fine, so I've resorted to using that one for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to go back through the change logs that far to find it "officially"... No wonder I couldn't find anything in the more recent change logs... It's been present since June and is either reoccurring or *still* occurring. Awesome... Oh well, ED's F-15E will do the job for now. Thanks.
