mooshim Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Cheers All, I don't even know if it's possible in the editor... I was just curious if anyone has ever heard of such a thing as a JTAC targeting a parked (moored) or water borne target underway IRL or in the sim.

Cheers, Moosh I think it's realistic for the controller to direct an attack on anything that poses a threat as long as he can see it from his position and the aircraft has ordnance that can handle the target.

Murf7413 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 JTAC doesn't have to see the target in Type 3 control. If its on the battlefield it's fair game. I would say that riverine targets are valid. A JTAC/TACP isn't going to be involved in anything littoral however. That's Navy territory. Correct... but as a former TACP, I can say that it was certainly within our capabilities to do so, and we would train with working with the Navy for such targets off a coastline... ;-) intel i7 960, Liquid cooled case, Vista 64bit, 8MB RAM, nVidia GTS250 XLR8 Extreme Performance 1MB, TM COUGAR HOTAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooshim Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 Thanks for the info. I figured that all targets were welcome to a TAC Party. I wish I could manage targeting water borne targets in the sim. :( Cheers, Moosh [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Win7 | Intel Core 2 Quad | Q8400 @ 2.66GHz | 2.67 GHz 3.37GB of RAM 60gig Samsung SSD| GTX 570 "Operation: Bull by the Horns" "Bull Run 2.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
