check weapon laser code ATFLIR 1688 is the only code working on Afghanistan map

[Pribs86]

I am flying in Afghanistan the only code that works with the ATFLIR on the left cheek is 1688. Any other code the rounds (500lb LGB) are impacting about 100 meters off the target. The only other laser codes I've tried so far are 1686 and 1687, both are a no go. A friend and I also tried to buddy lase for one another with 1686 and 1687 and same issue, rounds impact off the target. I placed a JTAC on the ground lasing targets with 1686 and the LST won't even pick up the laser. Haven't tried the JTAC on 1688 yet, but will here soon. So far the only code that works in Afghanistan is 1688. Haven't tried any other maps yet either so I cannot speak to those.

 

Thanks!

The LGB bombs should be coded before starting the plane on the ground.

Use the Ground crew menu, code the laser number for every weapon and press OK. Then wait for rearm to the new code be transfered to the bomb and start up the Hornet.

Change the laser code on the ATFLIR and done. Bombs codes cant be changed in flight, default is always 1688.

In addition to Esac info above, refer to the manual for laser bombs deployment beginning at page 321.

And you can do it after you start the plane, but it does need to be changed on the ground with the ground crew REARM/REFUEL menu

Hi, 

please ensure you are setting the laser code correctly on the bombs. 

If you still feel there is an issue please include a track replay example. 

thank you
