jackshen Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The latest update CCIP/CCRP will not compensate for crosswind. This effect can be observed on bombs/30mm and rocket. It's almost impossible to hit target with it. What's broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeriaGloria Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Was it ever supposed to compensate for wind? The gunsight certainly doesn’t. Look for smoke and where previous bombs rockets bullets landed to compensate. Once a target is destroyed you have a nice smoke column to act like a wind sock. It is a feature of the SVP-24 which is a very recent upgrade our Flanker doesn’t have, however I’m not sure if it’s radar is capable of computing the wind speed for it.

What I'm thinking is CCIP trajectory prediction is fed by computer, where crosswind can certainly be calculated from atmospheric data and inertial navigation on board. Whether or not if this is in the Su-27 computer I have no idea. But what I'm getting confused is things got broken after update without detailed documentation like what and why. This is really frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzger Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 If the real one doesn't have the capability to compensate the wind, then it has been fixed not broken. Sent from my Redmi 4 using Tapatalk [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Redmi 4 using Tapatalk Then where's the confirmation if the real one is there or not. One thing I'm quite concerned is Su-27 is in the late 80s when even the WWII Norden bombsight could compensate for crosswind. Need documents/proof to say this is intended.

AeriaGloria Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Compensating for wind in the Norden is done via autopilot, measuring what it takes to fly straight and level I believe. It thus can only measure the wind at its own altitude. I believe that’s how it works.

It's almost impossible to hit target with it. What's broken? Did it ever compensate? I think it was about a year ago that someone was complaining that the CCIP training mission was impossible to hit the targets exactly. The bombs were always a bit off. Turned out there was a breeze in the mission pushing the bombs off target. I don’t fly much A2G in the Flanker but, when I have in the past, there was no compensation for wind that I recall.

AeriaGloria Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 For rockets and guns you often have to fire a round or two see where they fall and correct by adjusting the pipper. Extremely satisfying when you get it right Keep an eye out on anything already smoking it will give away the wind Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
