how to drop bombs...

Recommended Posts

1) Make sure a bomb is installed :-)

 

2) Set the master weapons switch, on the left of the ammunition counters to it's Upper position;

 

3) Choose the right settings in the central Bomb Control Panel: Dive ( Sturz ) or Level ( Wagerecht ) and witout ( Ov ) or with ( mv ) delay;

 

4) Don't Forget the V101 circuit breaker must be IN !!!

 

5) Both lamps should now be lightened ( Bomb Status and Ready ) on the Bomb Control Panel.

 

6) Use the default key ( don' t recall which one right now ) or program one of your joystick switches for the Bomb Release funtion. It will be mapped to the outer left button in your stick.

Please read Page 167 in the manual, it is easy to do but I find it hard to hit the target. Also on page 168 Using Rockets is good reading.

I don't even have bombs as an ordnance option. You guys have it?

Yes thank you! This was driving me nuts as the manual says:

"Press the MK 108 Fire Button button on the control stick to drop bombs"

@gavagai,

 

there are no preset loadouts, have you created a new loadout?

 

usualy you can select bombs then by right-clicking on those empty hardpoint fields.

 

have you tried to rearm while sitting on the ground?

 

if you dont have the bomb/fueltank options there, you might try a DCS:Repair.

 

another thing, even with preset loadouts, some might be unavailabel depending on the selected aircraft task.

 

regards,

RR

I use the mission editor, but how do I create a new loadout?

 

Ha! Just figured it out. Had no idea I had to create my own loadout. Thanks!

S!

 

Finally managed to create loadouts too :P The K-4 handles quite differently with the droptank under belly + using 100% internal fuel instead of the 86% default.
