Zarma Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 I know this thread. Doesnt answer my question about buddylasing like it was working in the Harrier. i9 9900k, 64 Go RAM, RTX 4090, Warthog HOTAS Throttle & Stick, Saitek Combat Rudder, MFD Cougar, Trackir 5 Pro, Multipurpose UFC and Oculus Rift S (when I want some VR), http://www.twitch.tv/zarma4074 / https://www.youtube.com/user/Zarma4074 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zarma Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 OK so sadly no buddylasing.

Freeroamer Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I mean would it be that difficult to simply copy paste the GBUs onto the Hornet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano87 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I mean we are going to have CCIP capability with the Mk82,83 and 84s on EA release so I wonder how difficult gbu buddy lasing would be? I mean you'd deliver the weapon using CCIP as well so you'd only need the ability to change the laser code.

Kayos Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Hopefully they can add buddy lasing for EA. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano87 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 It would certainly add a lot of capability to the aircraft without much work needing to be done on systems etc, the cost/reward ratio makes sense to me.

On M-2000C (no TGP) you can set the code in mission editor.:smilewink: Mirage fanatic !

Shadow KT Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Ugh, these harrier guys.... :lol: What do you mean enable buddy lasing ? Buddy lasing is something you do, it is not a function. If the GBU-12 is available at launch(to be equipped on the aircraft), you don't need a targeting pod or laser finder to perform a strike. All you need are coordinates, talk-on, or/and a smoke. CCIP drop and that's it. The bomb doesn't care, if you are the one lasing or someone else, it just seeks for the lase with the correct code, no matter the source. Look at the F-5E, doesn't even have CCIP Sorry, if I have misunderstood what you guys are asking for, but if this is the case, just wanted to shine some light on the topic.

Cheers Yes you have misunderstood what we mean. For starters one might not even be able to load GBUs on the aircraft to begin with. It might only have access to loadouts using the weapons outlined as being functional for early access. So point number 1 is "Allow us to load GBUs" Now the other aspect of buddy lasing is that we need to be able to change the laser code for the weapon, this is another systems function which would have to be enabled by ED. I think we all understand how to buddy lase, we are talking more about backend stuff that ED would have to put in place to allow us to buddy lase. If we can't even load GBUs in the first place let alone CCIP them or change the laser code then it won't be possible.

Freeroamer Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Basically we would need them to allow us to mount GBUs and edit the laser code within the mission editor/kneeboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumbaos Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 we need to be able to change the laser code for the weapon You don't change the laser code for the weapon, you change the laser code for the designator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonesvf103 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 We were able to buddy lase laser Mavs with one person shooting from a Hornet and the other lasing with a Warthog successfully BTW, I take it Steam users don't have GBUs yet? v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.

Baz000 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 STEAM has GBUs I was flying the Harrier last night lazing targets at night for Hornets... Found that the Hornet pilots had no idea where the targets were so I would use laser marker first so they could use AUTO bomb mode with TDC on HUD and then switch from laser marker to laser and paint the targets. Worked just fine at night when they could see my marker laser from my TPOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonesvf103 Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I just noticed in the ME there are GBUs as well as Mave-F and HARMs. I didn't see any mission though. Don't they usually push an instant action or training mission for the new weapons? v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.
