I'm having a bit of frustration. Have been learning the F-18C module after spending a good amount of time learning the F-16 to a T. I have to say they both have their redeeming qualities, but I have to say the Air to Ground munitions in the F-16, for me, have always just worked and were pretty intuitive. My frustration is I have tried the F-18 cluster bomb tutorial. Even with setting the HT to 1500 feet the canister pops open almost as soon as I drop it. That was with a RockEye. Then I go into the mission editor and set up a quick flight with both CBU 99's and Rockeye's and the options to even set the 1500 altitude setting is missing. All I see is a MFUZ setting of Pri or Opt. Opt will seem to wait a little longer before it pops but regardless of what I do I can't hit a target to save my life where I can turn around and load the plane up with MK-82's and hit a solider in his head. I've looked at youtube videos and depending on when the video was made and the patch level they have options I don't have. I have included a TRACK file to show myself flying at around 8000 feet and dropping multiple Rockeye's. When I set it to OPT, again, it waited longer before it popped but there is still 0 accuracy. f18 rockeye problem.trk

We are aware of some issues regarding cluster munition. Hopefully a fix is incoming to mitigate them. Stay tuned.

CCIP with cluster bomb and even AUTO is VERY inaccurate, it falls far off, still. But the regular bombs drop fine. I see that this cluster bomb issue still persists. Some of the Campaigns like Inherent resolve is a pain since they say not to change the loadout.
