Satarosa Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 "The Mk-81, 82 and 83 have both a L and a H option being for low-drag and high-drag versions respectively." I always use L (low-drag), I don't udestand when using the option H for the bombs? Because, when I put the "high-drag" I alway mist the target, the bombs going to far.. ??

electricaltill Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Yes, I'd like some guidance on technique for dropping the high-drag bombs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The L option is for normal unretarded bombs, the H option is for snakeeye or ballute high drag bombs. Of these only the Mk-82 has this option in the loadouts in DCS.

If you use the TGT/PLT technique with high drag bombs they will land short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naquaii Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 That should not be the case, we have been having problems with the carrier and INS alignments leading to erroneous results in systems relying on it. It should be improved as of latest patch but we'll have a look ofc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naquaii Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Sidenote: the fuze controls the L/H delivery of the retarded bombs. Correct, if you set the wheel to high drag delivery and then don't fuze the bombs to actually use the retarded mode they will miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knock-Knock Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 In short. Set fuze to 'Nose and Tail' to use the bombs (SE and Y) as retarded. - Jack of many DCS modules, master of none. - Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS. | Windows 11 | i5-12400 | 64Gb DDR4 | RTX 3080 | 2x M.2 | 27" 1440p | Rift CV1 | Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS | MFG Crosswind pedals | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karon Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Correct, if you set the wheel to high drag delivery and then don't fuze the bombs to actually use the retarded mode they will miss. Yep, and I also usually carry SE only and use them as standard by switching the fuze and the drum. The more flexible, the better! :) "Cogito, ergo RIO" Virtual Backseaters Volume I: F-14 Radar Intercept Officer - Fifth Public Draft Virtual Backseaters Volume II: F-4E Weapon Systems Officer - Internal Draft WIP Phantom Phamiliarisation Video Series | F-4E/F-14 Kneeboard Pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
