tedcrowley18 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 The aircraft will not pick up the JTAC laser with my GBU's. I can pick it up with the 65E Mavericks. I have attached photos. On the HUD tutorials, there is a RAUT on the right side, mine says BAUT for whatever reason. I have all the latest updates. Any help would be great. I dunno if it is a bug with the update or what. Master Arm is on, everything is good to go, and I have walked through this with other buddies of mine, uninstalled and reinstalled.

Ramsay Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 TL;DR: You'll use DMT LST mode to detect the JTAC's laser and designate the target for GBU-12's. Detail: You may need to undesignate the previous target (NWS button), if using the LMAV's previously (not sure as I'm typing from memory) and then use 'sensor select aft' to start the LST scan. Once detected/designated the DMT will switch to TV mode and you'll have the target 'diamond' in the HUD and range/bearing info. You'll then use a regular AUTO/CCRP bombing run to drop the GBU-12's onto the target where they should detect the laser spot and guide onto the target. I'm not sure if 4x LMAV + 2x wingtip GBU-12 is a valid configuration but I've had no issue using mixed GBU-12 and LMAV loadouts on stations 2, 3, 5 and 6 On the HUD tutorials, there is a RAUT on the right side, mine says BAUT for whatever reason. • RAUT is for Auto/CCRP mode using the radar altimeter as source. • BAUT is for Auto/CCRP mode using the barometric altimeter as source. You have the radar altimeter turned off but it shouldn't effect accuracy too much when dropping guided bombs (AFAIK use depends on terrain and height anyway). i9 9900K @4.9GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just need to reset your target designator to be sure that DMT will be boresighted, use aft sensor mod between TV/LST, be on LST and be sure that correct laser code is entered. When laser spot you got noting to do, just fly the way on target with GOOD COURSE. As said RAUT and BAUT are radar and barometric automatic realease mod. I till not try to use JTAC with AV8BNA because we cannot enter waypoint so you need to set waypoint before, but sure that it works both GBU and LMAV on buddy lasing.
