missing trackfile GBU-24 CLAR max range

[Anubis_94]

Hello,

 

When using the GBU-24, in SL or PP, we have a min&max range.

But, while the manual say : "Normally, the bomb can only be released when the aircraft is inside the LAR."

(page 324)

We cannot release the bomb before the release cue crosses the velocity vector.

In image, that means that while we might think we could release the bomb any time in the red part, we can only release it in the yellow.

Weapon release doesn't do anything in the blue part. We also tried a forced laze, and a loft.

CLAR ORV ignored because, the manual doesn't say we need to use it to drop while in the CLAR.

 

No track right now. Can do one if necessary.

Hello,

 

Seen the mising trackfile tag, so here is the reproduction track.

Precisely, the bomb is allowed to drop sligthly before the crossing of the VV by the release cue.

Some weapon release in the red zone didn't drop the bomb, then one drop at the start of the green one.

I also dropped one at the end of the green zone to confirm that the 24 was able to come back on the TGT from the min range.

Hello,

 

I am still seeing the "missing track" flag but the track is provided in the message above.

So, bumping the topic to ensure the track is seen.
