CCIP and hills/mountains

I remember this being a problem with the A10C at one time as well.

 

It seems CCIP doesn't take into account the DTED data for the elevation of the target. Therefore, in the mountains and hills, CCIP isn't accurate (only tested on bombs so far, but I suspect guns/rockets will be same).

 

In the A10 we could work around it by manually setting the elevation of the target, rather than relying on DTED data. Any thoughts for the AV8B?

 

Note: ARBS works well still.

Are you designating the ground near the target? In order for the ARBS to get an accurate HOT it needs to be tracking a spot at or at least near the target. Otherwise the system relies on (I think) RALT for HOT, which is not going to be accurate in hills.

 

Not sure if this is working yet, but that’s my input

Yeah, ARBS is good, it was CCIP that gave the problem.

 

However, tried the same mission in daytime, and bombs were hitting pretty close to target. I’m now wondering if it was something to do with the HUD FLIR....

Yeah but are you using the ARBS when making CCIP runs?

 

Nope!

TO get accurate target elevation you must first lock a spot with the DMT so ARBS can calculate ballistic impact point accurately. This is valid for both AUTO and CIP.

Ah ha!!!! Thanks Zeus. I think that is my problem for the inaccuracy.
