question on TPG and Maverik (tpg goes werid after firing maverik)

[rocket302]

I'm not sure if this is normal or if I'm doing something wrong?

First, i have aligned the Maverick and TPG and then set the WPN mode to Visual. The TPG is set to Auto.

When i lock and fire a missile, i can watch the missile through the TGP until it hits the target. 

Also, note in the HUD i see the TGP square and then the Maverick lock circle.

however after the missile hits its target the TPG goes somewhere i can't determine. also the symbols on the HUD go away.

to get back to Fire another missile i have to switch WPN in to Bore, then back to Visual  which i'm then able to re-target.

 

What i am wanting to know, is this normal having to go back to Bore then Visual to get back to a new target lock, or is there a different way i can do this?

I asked the same/similar question a few days ago, in my case it was another weapon that was set to pre forcing the seeker back to the most recent or previous waypoint. 

 

Nobody seemed to be sure if this was realistic behaviour or cockup

First, after you've fired a maverick, TMS-Back to slave the next maverick to the SPI. Then DMS up to make HUD SOI. Then TMS-down to boresight the HUD. Now you can look for a new target. TMS-up twice when HUD is SOI to make the WPN SOI. Personally I would advise against using the TGP in VIS mode. Just put the maverick close with the HUD and then refine with the WPN page.

There is some behaviour regarding TGP/SPI/Maverick. the topic is being investigated.
