that’s right
how about button candy? -
I like button candy but I guess it should really be finger candy
-
nice

Smallish error on page 137, second to last paragraph: Attack azimuth for a JDAM is controlled with OSB7, not OSB8.

Suggestion - Training Guide - Mission 2: Basic Navigation - Page 34
Text seems to suggest pre 4.33 mode selection behavior (auto-selected)
“Select the TOS page.
Depending on the TOS page being mode selected or not the HUD will display ETA or ETE to the selected steerpoint.
Note that when TOS is mode selected it is highlighted in green.
When not mode selected only the asterisks of the scratchpad are highlighted.
In this case it is highlighted and the HUD displays ETA.”Suggest something explaining the select step in 4.33
“Switch to the TOS page. The scratchpad highlights the asterisks of the current page. Select this mode with ICP 0 MSEL and notice how the mode is now highlighted in green. The HUD now displays ETA to the selected steerpoint (not ETE) and an airspeed caret appears on the HUD speed scale.”

don’t get it.
The text is correct. The only difference is that “by default” in 4.33 TOS is not mode selected
but the behaviour of one or the other one is unchanged.
The user should see if TOS is mode selected or not depending on the highlight as the text implies? -
well, I played the training mission and reading
“When not mode selected only the asterisks of the scratchpad are highlighted.
In this case it is highlighted and the HUD displays ETA.”"simply doesn’t match what’s happening during the flight, thus is confusing.
In the mission as flown TOS ends up not being selected - if the training mentions how to select it (ICP 0) you’d avoid questions in the forum re caret showing.

In the training manual on the Mission 2: Basic Navigation, p32, at the bottom where it says “the CDI is still set to 248°…”. I think it should be “the Course Arrow is still set to 248°…” The CDI has moved to the 2nd dot, parallel to the Course Arrow .

Yep, will correct, thanks

in <bms-training.pdf>, p.99
Knowing from which side the bomb will be released is therefore very useful and can be easily checked in the TGP page by looking at the highlighted station number.
The station selected for dropping can be changed with the MSL STEP button on your sidestick.i tested it, it dos’t work, it cycle bomb mode from CCRP CCIP DTOS.

indeed
I screw that one up. Use OSB button insteadThanks for the feedback
-
what? i dont think so.
i tried OSB on both side, no one works.
i think BMS dos’t have this function. -
I think you’re right. I must be seriously confused with AG missiles.

@Red:

You can only step stations with AG missiles, yes. The MMC drops from alternate sides for bombs automatically. You can adjust its drop pattern by reprogramming the loadout to omit a station if need be - though not in BMS, with the automagic loadout selector in the SMS.

@Red:
I think you’re right. I must be seriously confused with AG missiles.
I confirm, dumb bombs and LGB cannot be “stepped”. A workaround for Hung ordnance (that would prevent single release and forbid to jump to the next station) is to drop in pair.

Apologies if this has been posted already.
Page 127 refers to Force Correlation mode of the AGM-65G. It says ‘You don’t need to designate track with TMS up but aim for the lowest possible spot on the span.’
This is not correct. Without a TMS up to designate the missile will not track and will simply lawndart.
Edit RD: need investigation

p.133
we are planning to attack both columns with a pair of JSOWs in trail, it’s best to fire JSOWs at INS steerpoints rather than cursor positions, so we need to mark both centres of the columns and use them as our attack INS steerpoints. As both attack axes are different, we’ll set the first two bombs for the 315¡ã column, ripple the first two JSOWs, then program the SMS for the next column axis before releasing the last 2 bombs.consider about this situation, i think it should be two?
