I believe you can also pre-set the TOO bombs with the ATFLIR. You don't need to aim, pickle, aim, pickle, etc... You can actually aim, TDC depress, step to next station, aim, TDC depress, etc. That will save each coordinate to that station's bomb. Then you can drop them all at once, and get all the bombs hit about the same time (as long as the targets are close together).

Oh that’s cool! I’ve found a renewed interest in the Hornet as of late and have been having a ton of fun with it. These videos have been really helpful.

always the best! Thanks so much for the great Vids. Im a huge fan!

Thank you for making this informative DCS F/F-18C JADAM tutorial for us.

Cheers mate, glad it helped you

Entering the heading can be very useful if you want the bomb to avoid overflying something. For example, over a populated town, you might want the JDAM to come over from a specific direction to avoid overflying a residential area, as if the bomb falls short for any reason, then it doesn't risk hitting someone's house. For the same reason, it's standard practice not to release ordnance anywhere where it would overfly friendly positions, as there is always a chance of something going wrong and the bomb or missile falling short. Moreover for new viewers, as of the latest update you don't need DCS scratchpad to have those coordinates up like that. You can just left alt+click on your target point on the f10 map, and it will bring up the same thing for you (wow, ED actually implemented a QoL feature!).

Another great teaching video (thankyou) you was asking about doing a kneeboard training video in last Persian Gulf Cam Sortie 03 mission I noticed you had gimp on your desk top in one of your Utube Liberation Missions, would like to know how to create a mission plan using gimp to get the kneeboard plan into mission ,that would be great, also I enjoyed Persian Gulf Cam Sortie 03 really like the way you present your missions, “Keep'em Coming Mate” great stuff !!

Cheers for the kind words mate. I mainly use GIMP for thumbnails for YT and that is about it. Liberation generates the mission knee-boards for the sortie automatically which helps a lot cuz I am not very techy savvy on the editing side of things haha. It's a miracle the average quality videos I put out are to the quality they are :P

Really good video, thanks. How do you get that overhead view? Is it one of the normal views or a mod?

MATE.... How did you get the co-ordinate overlay that your using to enter the PP co-ordinates? And does it work in VR?! One of my pet hates is having to take a photo of all my co-ordinates from the F10 map with my phone and then sit with the VR helmet half off and enter in all my co-ordinates....

A great tutorial mate. I was wondering could I select multiple targets in TOO and then pickle all bombs at once. Similar to PP mode?

@TorniQuetHD

2 жыл бұрын

As far is I know you can only have one target in TOO as the GPS coords are linked to the TPOD so as soon as you move it it updates the position for the next bomb. The work around would be to find a target, make it a mark point… rinse and repeat for all targets and then target designate on a mark point and drop a bomb, cycle to next mark point and repeat until all mark points have been pickled on 💪🏻

Great video! Love your Hornet tutorials. Any reason why you didn't use markpoints for the final pass?

Are markpoints working again? A few months ago after an update there was an issue with markpoints. You were able to create the markpoints but when you “uploaded” them to the bombs as you entered the last one, they get all erased. I don’t know if it’s still happening or not, I’ll try next week…

@@Vortex31415 awesome, what’s the procedure you used for mark points in PP mode?

You can't program to all 8 bombs TOO gps coordinates to drop them 8 simultaneously right? You have to drop 4 first then switch the mission to T002 for the other 4 GPS coordinates?

Is there a way to use point track mode like in the A-10Cii?

Thanks, super useful guide! Sorry, bunch of questions about pre-planned mode. You enter 4 coordinates for 4 stations. Which of those coordinates does the HMD determine your min/max range and zone cone on? If they are close enough to each other that probably doesn't really matter, but what if you've set these coordinates to wildly varying locations, so one target might not be in range when another one is? My assumption was the HMD cone and HUD target dot are the ones corresponding with the station that you have currently selected, but then if you hold the pickle button, it will still drop all 4 bombs. Or does it just cycle to the other 3 stations while you hold pickle, and it drops all of them as each time it cycles, the next coordinates are in zone as well?

@TorniQuetHD

2 жыл бұрын

Good question mate and I don’t know the answer. I’d have a guess that it would only drop the weapons that are in launch parameters and not drop the ones that are still yet to be in range. I’d presume that real world practices would be dropping multiple JDAMS on targets in the same vicinity of each other so the issue you are wondering about wouldn’t be a factor but can always fire up a mission and mythbust it for science haha

To do a bomb toss with JDAM you go into release type and select auto loft and the degrees you want to loft the bomb at. Once in zone you hold weapon release and pull nose up until bomb fall line goes through velocity vector 👌🏻 I will be doing an advance bombing video at some point in the future

Open the F10 map and zoom in on the area you want to set the camera to.

Use the mouse to look around and press numpad + or - to zoom in and out further

Jdam is fire and forget, although if your target moves it’s position during the flight time of the bomb the bomb will miss as it’s dropping on a coordinate and not tracking a laser
