Sedlo Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I'll start off by saying I have never dropped a JDAM in real life, let alone flown an aircraft capable of it. But from what I understand from one person who has, is that the programming of the weapon is in degrees, minutes/decimal minutes NOT minutes, seconds/decimal seconds. It's also a referenced a bit in this podcast: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/afterburn-warbirdradiocom/e/78074378?autoplay=true at the 37:33 mark, where they talk about given targets in dd mm ss.ss and it was incompatible with their jet. It's Air Force, but the joint in JDAM would lend itself to inter-service use. Any chance this could be looked into a bit more? All of the radio traffic I've monitored in the last 20 years or so has target coordinates passed in degrees, minutes/decimal minutes. Cheers!

I think you should ask that question in the F-18 bug subforum (as well). i7 - 9700K | 32 GB DDR4 3200 | RTX 2080 | VKB Gunfighter Mk II /w MCG Pro | Virpil T-50CM2 Throttle | TrackIR 5 | VKB Mk.

Sedlo Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 Hornet for sure, not sure if this will be incorporated into the Viper or not. My Youtube Channel MY DCS MISSIONS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Viper doesn’t have this feature yet and looks to be a long time till that happens. So you need to post in the f-18 forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
