yonyz Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Hi, I'm doing the Air to Air training mission now, and I am locked on the left (first) Su-25 aircraft with the Litening 2 targeting pod, but there is no indication at all of where the Litening 2 is pointing, on the HUD. So how do I point something that I see through the cockpit, with the TGP? I'd love to provide a screenshot, but hitting Print Screen captures my desktop and not the game, for some odd reason.
Fish Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) Not sure about the Hud, But when in TGP SOI, i expect you look at the TGP. The Little white spot on the edge of the screen shows where its pointing. If its at 12 O'clock position then your TGP is looking dead ahead. Remember the TGP is a very fine adjustment, and the Hud is a very coarse adjustment for target caret. From what i remember, TGP shows as diamond on TAD.

Nate--IRL-- Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 This is correct, no TGP indication for A2A HUD. I use the TGP Boresighted and use the Gun Bore Line (GBL) Cross (Pg 367) which it seems to match, as the indication.

pandawelch Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Had the same problem as you, spent ages chasing around the 2nd plane trying to figure out where it was based on the direction it was pointing in the TGP. Around 50% of the way into the screen (edge -> center) there'll be a small white dot. That indicates which direction (relative to you) it is pointing! 2500K@4.2Ghz, ASRock P67 Pro 3, 8GB DDR3 1600MHz, AMD 6950 2GB, 22" Samsung @1920*1080, X52, TrackIR 5 + Clip Pro, Win 7 64bit.
Henchman14 Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 I think you can hit break lock (c, china hat aft short) and it should come back to facing around the middle of the hud. At least, this works in AG mode.
Sappo Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Had similar issues, not with the training misson though. Just often times when doing TGP targeting in game, I will slew the TGP to forward looking center, and I KNOW it is looking dead ahead on my hud, but the dot does not show ON the hud. Not sure what is causing this, is it the mode the HUD is in perhaps? Or some other mystery... Sometimes it works great, other times... no dot. Without the dot it is incredibly hard to begin searching an area
