Hi!

When is the correct release time (when to press the weapon release button) for the JDAM in order to not getting a hung store?

I thought from what I´ve read, it would be, as soon as MAN REL is advised in the HUD...

Thanks in advance for clarification!

Not to change the subject but also to ask another question. I had a hung store and I was wondering if there was actually a way to jettison it. I tried to find a manual jettison with no luck.

 

I generally hold it down until it is removed from the stores page.

Yes, it's when it says "MAN REL" or whatever it says, you just have to hold the pickle button down for like 3 seconds or it will hang the store.

Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

In CCRP mode when the carrots seperate in the ring and the countdown begins hold button till bomb clears rack.

 

Use the jettison stores button to clear your stations. There are steps to take to rectify a hung store but I'm not confident in explaining that:huh:

Thanks for your quick replies!

Ok, so if I don´t wailt for 3 seconds until I release the button, I´ll get a hung store?

@Cibit: I see the carrots and know what they mean, but I´ve never seen a countdown as with the MK 81/82 or the LGB in CCRP with JDAMS...

look at wags video at youtube. there is a solution without jettison your weapon.

Well inside the circle in the HUD that the carrots revolve around there is a smaller circle which moves round the inner circumference. Once you see this it corresponds with man/rel in hud.

Ah, okay, then I know what you mean.

I did another few tests, and when I hold down the weapon release button as soon as the timer starts (MAN REL appears on the HUD), it takes about 2 seconds and the bomb is being dropped automatically. :thumbup:

So I think I got that!

Thanks for your help!

I think the time for release is variable.

 

Cues are already mentioned

-starting of countdown

-DSMS page

-slight sound noticable

 

When hung store occurs, reset station trough INV page.

Well, as much as I'm against unfair fights, I'll go into this one three on one. Me, pg. 291 of the manual and the eternal souls of the crew of the SA-9 in the provided track against Viper. Hmm... that's more than three. Oh well. ;)

 

Follow the procedure and hung JDAMs do reset now. Wouldn't have made any sense otherwise. No chance in hell a weapon with that price tag would be accepted if your thumb slipping off the pickle button at an unfortunate moment would mean a permanently hung store and possibly scratched mission.

 

I also invite everyone to study my new, brilliant egress technique. If you leave your speedbrakes out, you fool the enemy into thinking that you are not egressing at all. Thus they save ammunition for a second go, at which time you flip them the universal sign of peace and understanding and head off for home.

Joking aside, I'll attempt to get final clarification. I am however 99.9% sure we're dealing with a Beetle if you're resetting and deploying a hung JDAM :)

Also pg. 608, abnormal checklists. "Hung IAM Station". This "it's a bug, not a feature" thing is reaching far and wide it seems! ;)

 

Do not put too much credence in the ramblings of an eccentric mind (mine)........:)
