STEP Change for JSOW/JDAM


NineLine

Recommended Posts

Having problems with jsow being very inaccurate with the 154A and C version in too mode, I make the waypoint the target with the wpdsg button on the hsi, but the bombs keep flying over the target missing it with a big margin. Any advice?
Are you sure you set the waypoint's elevation to ground level? It's probably that.

Mark the target with the pod... and it is a accurate and can hit tanks.. dead on...

 

but using the waypoints gets confusing and misses targets.... IMHO

My experience marking targets with TGP the AGM-154C consistently impacts long, by (it appears) about 20 meters.

Weird, I don't have that. Are you designating a point at the base of the target? If you're designating the top of a target, it's often the case that the actual point designated will be behind the target, on ground level, along the TGP's line of sight.

I'm using the Rippling

by Grim Reapers.

 

Since last update, when i use the step function to switch from station or release a bomb, it automaticaly switch to TOO mode. By the way, it erase PP1 stored coodinates with last coordinates from TGP

 

Track: Tracks

 

To avoid, I find I can use PP2, PP3 and other to not lost PP coordinates. But each drop, it switch to TOO mode, then I switch to PP mode, select PP2 or other.

I had the same experience with TOO mode, until I learned that I have to undesignate target before I change waypoint and hit the "Waypoint Designate" button. With that process, every one of my JSOWs hit its target within the S300 battery.

PS: I did not find this information in the flight manual where it should be, but I remembered vaguely something to that effect I have read in a post that I could not possibly find again.

We have reported the TOO / PP issue, for now use the undesignate work around between each target is set.

 

thanks

The undesignate-workaround doesn't work for me (see https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4089493&postcount=5). What am I doing wrong?

As I mentioned the next post after yours, undesignate only stops coordinates from transferring from TOO to PP, it doesn't prevent the stations from switching back to TOO mode, you'll have to do that manually.

JDAM,s miss targets by meters even with correct coordinates?

 

I was wondering if the JDAMS are currently bugged or something. Normally I would hit targets with JDAMS right on the pickleberry. But recently i had repeated misses when bombing through the clouds at 28000 feet. I punch in the correct coordinates and ellavation in feet which i collect in the mission briefing with the correct coordinates change with alt-y or whatever it was. I double check both ellavation and if the coordinates are correct ( zoom in and put the mouse over the middle of the targets to get the coordinates) But yet what looks like a bomb homing in on the target end ups missing by meters not even damaging the targets at all. All 4 bombs missed even though I was absolutly sure the data was 100% correct. Also i noticed there is no step function anymore to enable you to program multiple targets for multiple JDAMs requiring me to make 2 or 4 different passed for each Single JDAM. So are JDAMS bugged atm? I could just go for Mavericks or something else instead. But I need to know if the problem is on

My end or not..
