TobiasA Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago (edited) I have no idea why I can't save tracks, that feature somehow got broken and it copies the same track over and over again. I am unable to save tracks, it just saves an old one each time, no idea why. Will try to fix it. So maybe someone can record a track for this. I think I found out that if you boresight your mavericks flying south to north, then boresighting the mavericks will have a slight error along the length axis, so it will deviate a bit before or aft of the target (little bit to the south, little bit to the north). If you now attack from east to west, the error will be to the side (still a bit north or a bit south, instead of long or short of the target), and maverick handoff will fail, because the error now matters, and you will land a significant distance away from your target. The error needs to be a angular one, not meters to the north / south / east / west something. Steps to reproduce: - Align your mavericks in the air, flying south to north. Check if they return to the target with TMS down, they will. - Now fly around that target, and attack the same target with a 90 degree offset (west to east). You will see that your mavericks are now shifted left or right. - Attack from the south, and alignment will be better again, because the error doesn't matter as much now (as you are a bit in front of or aft of the target, but the seeker will still point right at it) Maybe someone can test that and record a track... Because my track feature broke. Attached a mission file to test, there is a single target a bit south of the others. Boresight your mavs and that target, fly out east and notice the direction and visible amount of the error. Let me know if you see the same or not. Sounds weird, I know... So thanks for taking a look. Hope my description was understandable. Tested with the ATP but I'm pretty sure it's the same with the Litening. Mav_test_boresight.miz Edited 7 hours ago by TobiasA 1
