Genuine uncage is china hat forward (short) which will self-track if it comes across a valid signature or it can wander away to the sun. Most of the time you want the scan pattern (and changing the home position of the boresight changes the circle) as true uncaged that wasn't due to threshold triggering isn't so great 99% of the time. The manual actually says TMS forward the first time doesn't engage the scan, simply enables slewing, and the second TMS forward initiates the scan. I'm not sure if that's actually the case. I don't think it does because I have pushed TMS forward short more than once and still nothing happens. Even in the videos Grim Reaper's he says to push TMS forward short to go into small scan where the circle goes around the center dot and China hat forward short for a large scan, But neither one seem to work for me like they do in the video. When I push china hat short forward the circle just goes back and forth but does not lock onto anything, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what now that I think about it I wonder if that is the problem. I can't remember if the hud is SOI So many things to remember you miss the most obvious but next time I try it I will make sure it is SOI.

gryper Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 What is the purpose of the tail fuse on bombs such as the Mk82? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederf Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Makes the bomb explode or deploys the high drag device if that can be considered a fuze. A detonation fuze in the tail allows other equipment to be installed in the front such as a ballistic cap, proximity detonator, laser guidance kit. A tail fuze may have less chance of failing when impacting certain surfaces. When used in combination with a nose detonation fuze a tail fuze may be set to a different configuration for flexibility in timing selection or simply to reduce the chance that both fuzes fail preventing the bomb from detonating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wespe Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 When i realise bomb in a training mode, HUD show me pages wit parameters of my shoot, 5 quickly changes pages, it's impossible to read this without PAUSE. How i can assess this informations during the flight or maybe after land. And where i can find descriptions all parametres on this pages?

My understanding is that it is intended to be recorded on the HUD video camera, and reviewed after the flight for debriefing on a video player you can pause and step on.

ASAP Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 (edited) When you go to that IFFCC menu doesn’t it start with “autoscroll Yes” if you use the data rocker I think you can change yes to no and then hit enter to scroll through page by page Edited November 2, 2022 by ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
