Problem with the 'I' bracket in the IHADS.
When using the CPG to target rockets, the 'I' remains static in the centre of the IHADS, and the rocket pods don't move up and down when moving the pilots head up and down.
When using the pilot to target rockets, the 'I' does move, but not in the correct way, as it used to do before the latest updates. It doesn't provide an accurate CCIP for the rockets. When the 'I' is lined up correctly and the rockets are fired, they are way off target. The rocket pods DO move up and down correctly to follow the pilots head.
There is no updated tutorial for firing rockets, and the manual is outdated.

The I-beam is not a CCIP indicator, it is a steering cursor based on the currently selected sight source to point the nose of the helicopter to where the sight source is looking. Rocket employment is described in the manual starting on page 500.

Thanks for your reply, but I still cant make sense of the I-beam. It moves with my head, and not the helicopter nose. It is offset from center of my view about 10 degrees to the left.

I'll ask in the discord group if anyone else can use the rockets, and help me with it.

Hi, 

it is working correctly, we have checked. It can take some getting used to but Tholozor has given a good explanation. 

If you think it is off ensure you have performed a good boresight. 

thank you
