Hello everyone! When I make an A-G mission in the F-18 with GBU-12s or any other GBU, I enter the correct laser code, get the correct target waypoint, fuse my bombs and all that stuff, and then I switch to AUTO mode turn on the TGP and it does not home to the target, it just looks into something completely different!? And I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! 😁

Are you arming the laser designator down to the right near the TGP switch? It is labelled LTD/R. After every AUTO laser designation drop, it will flick itself off. So you will need to re-arm it before you next and subsequent drops.

I think I have an Idea why it might be happening! I'll see if my idea works! And how do you fire the Laser?

Or if you leave it on AUTO it will fire the laser automatically (as long as laser is armed each time as Scotch75 said above).

More likely, did you set the laser code on the bomb itself on the ground in the rearm/refuel menu?  You can't change the code on the bomb in the air.  You can change the code in the Stores page, but that's strictly for reference since what the bomb is looking for is physically changed on the bomb (so has to be done on the ground).  Also check that you changed to the correct code to fire in the ATFLIR or LITENING pod page (as appropriate).

Thanks! And how do you turn on the TGP? Last time I could do it but when I tried now I couldn't!? Thanks for all the help! 😁
