Stickler Posted December 23, 2024 Posted December 23, 2024 According to the game manual, timers for ARBCS bombing modes are available for PULL-UP (0 to 60 seconds) and RELEASE (0 to 30 seconds). Both can be set in increments of 0.1 second, with 0.1 second as the minimum setting. This statement is confirmed by all real-life F-4 manuals at my disposal. As seen in the attached track, the pull-up timer can be set to values greater 60 seconds (70 seconds in the track), and the release timer can be set to values greater 30 seconds (40 seconds in the track), each in intervals much smaller than 0.1 seconds. The aircraft will not only permit these values to be set, but actually uses them in bombing: In TL mode, 70 seconds after the bomb release button is pressed, the pull-up light goes out and the steady tone comes on. 40 seconds afterwards, the bombs release. timers.trk 1
