AIM-7M/MH always loft in F-15C


Recommended Posts

The M/MH Sparrow seems to always loft in the F-15C until it reached down about 5 or so miles. This would make high aspect shot nearly impossible. This seems to be a long-standing bug and i remembered that it was reported before but i can't find that thread again. If there is such a known thread, please dup/merge.

So i was not hallucinating when i mentioned that I have heard this bug before. This was the old discussion over on the subforum for the F-15C: 

 

AIM-7 Disable loft please - F-15C for DCS World - ED Forums (eagle.ru)

 

Any updates on this would be highly appreciated. This is making any Sparrow shot at >5 miles incredibly hard if high-aspect.

It should also be disabled as a default for the MH.   Loft engagements procedures for the sparrow require

1) Selecting LOFT

2) Pitching up 20 degrees or more

 

Otherwise sparrow will not loft.

 

AIM-7P might operate differently (more like a 120), but I have no information on this.   The above information comes from IRL weapons manuals.
