Quaggles Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) When using an AIM-9X on a LAU-127 pylon (The single AIM-9X wing pylon) the seeker cannot look more than 20 degrees or so off boresight with JHMCS. Switching to a wingtip AIM-9X or LAU-115 dual rack pylon and you can utilise the full 90 degrees.

CoBlue Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Confirmed & Good find Sir :thumbup:. So that's why some of my 9x behave so strangely when loaded on Lau127-pylons. i7 8700k@4.7, 1080ti, DDR4 32GB, 2x SSD , HD 2TB, W10, ASUS 27", TrackIr5, TMWH, X-56, GProR.

Arlios Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 From what it appears, is that the single mount pylons are obstructing the seeker's head, Examples: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaggles Posted November 18, 2018 Author Share Posted November 18, 2018 That makes sense in the vertical axis to an extent but this behaviour even occurs aiming left and right. The AIM-9X seeker also doesn't seem to get masked by the fuselage when you are using an AIM-9X on the left pylon and lock someone up on your right for example so I'm not sure if this is intentional.

naturestrike Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 yes exact same issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldur Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I always had the impression that AIM-9 and 120s on LAU-127 were unrealistic anyway - at least that's what ED stated once IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
