Weapon Systems

[wizbomb]

Hello all,

 

I am very new to A-10 and so far has been really good. I know the start-up like the back of my hand and i have an understanding of what everything does but when i got to the guided laser systems i hit a brick wall, its so confusing to me its not funny and i don't know why, it might be the way Obama explains it but i just cant connect. it also might have to do with the fact that there is 40 different ways to do the same thing and im getting a mixed bag of info out of it. My question is this, Does anyone know of a place where i can learn how to use the systems that explains it better and simpler? Or any videos?

 

Thanks in Advance

 

P.S. One off topic question if you don't mind, what do you guys think of DCS combined Arms?

I learned a lot from YouTube tutorials.

 

Gerry Abbott's were especially helpful: http://www.youtube.com/user/gerryabbott

I had a bit of trouble my self in the beginning, especially i found the profiles hard to figure out, but once you get the hang of it its quit easy. YouTube has been a great help, there are a lot of tutorials about delivering weapons.

 

Fx: Guided bombing tutorial (Gbu-12 and Gbu-10):

Maverick part 1 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1IoF2xKBCI

Maverick part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6b8-omBruE

Maverick part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25MgpCEe114

 

And a very good tutorial about CBU-97:

 

The training missions in the game itself are also very helpful.

 

The Wiki is also very helpful: http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/w/index.php?title=DCS_A-10C_Guides,_Tutorials_and_Reference_Documents&oldid=2100

 

Keep up the faith and you will see the light ;)

Thanks guys for the fast respounce, im sure once i figure it out i will never forget it but the training missions throw me through a loop because the guy drags and talks about stuff that's irrelevant sometimes, these videos might help.
