my 25th time running the shooting range...

[WildBillKelsoe]

Hello simmers,

So.. After ALOT of practice, alot of time dedicated to the shark, alot of rocket science research, and alot of crashes, ejections, weapon blowbacks, vortex ring states...

 

I finally zipped the shooting range mission. In my entire 2 year experience, I never had the pleasure of completing the mission. Not once..

 

That's enough with the cheap talk.. Ladies.... Gents.... I present to you... My 25th flight shooting range mission re-attempt..

 

 

I'd love some cheering fellas.. Also, I'll try to make a split youtube render for some of my remarks while flying this mission, as an aid to the fresh meat coming down this isle...

 

All your comments are highly appreciated

 

Kudos to you all, and enjoy...

I've never flown a pre made mission or campaign. Am I missing something?

No.

Track does not replay correctly for me.

 

You don't actually hit anything and crash & burn a few minutes after entering the range!

 

Also after startup, you got permission to taxi to runway 22 but did a short hop to the opposite end of the runway and took off from there?

Hi. I watched it.

 

I don't know why the enemy doesn't respond you, but if they would atack, I think it wouldn't be easy to hit them via S-8KOM.

 

By the way; You had full of S-8KOM. They are unguided rockets. Then, why did you try to "lock" the target? You don't have to lock while using S-8KOM, right?

Locking the target gives the computer a range. Otherwise it's a fixed distance you have to judge. The enemies not responding because it's a shooting range training mission rather than a real combat one.

Hello. Thanks for your feedback. Indeed the targets are of type static objects ,so they won't shoot back. Think of it as Arma 2's static objects or training targets. Besides, they don't have a trigger for detection.

 

And about the locking thing, you are partially correct when you say I dont have to use the laser. Thing is, laser corrects the HUD sight for rockets based on rangefinding. By default, you wont use it if you'll correct the HUD via the CETKA (*) mode and the wall panel rocket correction table. I will post a quick short video trying the boresighted shkval mode using the laser designator as constant painter.

Ok guys. But I think I should practice and see the difference; Using unguided rockets with laser & locking and without them.

 

Thanks. :)
