Can't fire any weapon after repair and rearm

[X_legio]

During the campaign, my TGP was hit so I go back to the base, shut down the engine and repaired the plane, after that iI did a refuel and rearm, all was ok, go again to the target, weapon armed,  find a target with the pod, passed the info to a maverick maverick locked the target but I was not able to fire, tried cannon, rockets  bombs, nothing.

Put several time the arm switch to safe and arm again but with no results.

Any idea ?

This may sound stupid, but... did you by any chance forget to retract the gear? With the gear down, weapons can't be fired (unless you set the ground safety override switch on the rear left console to override - but it's generally advised to retract the gear instead).

IIRC Mavericks won't come off the rails with the flaps in the MVR or DOWN position, but that should put a big FLAPS indication or similar on your MFCDs. Also, flaps auto-retract at around 190 knots to protect themselves from overspeeding, so unless you were fairly slow (even for an A-10, that is ), that probably wasn't the issue.

Otherwise, might have been a one-off DCS glitch with an incomplete repair, though I'm not actually aware of any problems with the repair option.

If you can recreate the issue, ideally in a short mission, a track would be very helpful to figure it out.

I am pretty sure that gear was up.... I will try again
