miguelaco Posted May 25 Posted May 25 (edited) I noticed it is possible to select R/BL mode with no target selected. This seems to contradict what's stated in the manual and Chuck's Guide. Additionally, if R/BL is selected before having a TGT, when undesignate, the mode is changed back to BOL, but only for the selected station. Even more puzzling if you observe that when R/BL is selected for the first time, the indication INV TGT is displayed, possibly indicating that you need a designation first. However, later on, if you undesignate and select R/BL again, the last TGT seems to be remembered, IN RNG is displayed and the target is displayed in the HSI. If this is a feature and the target is persisted to the missile's memory after undesignate, why changing mode back to BOL? Is this correct behavior? Doesn't seem very consistent as it is right now. agm84d_mode.trk Edited May 25 by miguelaco null
miguelaco Posted May 28 Author Posted May 28 Any word on this? I provided a track and I think there's enough evidence to determine if this is a bug or working as intended. My view is that this is bugged and it makes no sense to change mode to BOL on undesignate while it is possible to select R/BL with no target selected. Any comments?
