How to use the various aiming reticles ?

[fjacobsen]

I have tried to figure out how to use the aiming reticles of the Abrams and the Multi rocket launcher.

 

How do I use the range marks on the Abrams ?

I see some measuring stuff on the upper part.

 

Using the Multi rocket launcher, I measured the distance from my MRLS to my intended target. I found it to be 14 km and at 169°.

 

I rotated the launcher to point at 169° and raised the launcher to the 14000 mark and then fired, but the rockets fell way short of the target, maybe only reaching 2/3 of the distance.

Figured out the Artillery myself.

 

But...

Mission planner measures distances in feet

F10 command map in Nautical miles

 

Artillery unit in Km

 

Hmm...

Seems I must find out what unit the JTAC view uses.

Hi FinnJ,

 

I think you can switch between Metrical and Imperial units somewhere in the options. If you set it metric, at least the mission editor and the F10 map are also in metric then.

 

Best regards,
