Weapon Camera and Targeting Pod

[quachimba]

Just a question.

I know that mavericks use their weapon camera mounted right in the front of a maverick missle. My question is once i fire it i lose visual to the target until I uncage another missle. Obviously when i fire all of them i have no way of keeping a visual on the target to confirm a kill or not. I’ve seen videos around where maverick cameras continue to display to the f-16 MFD while on path to the target. Is there any way of doing this in BMS 4.33? or do i need to carry a TGP and switch from weapon camera to TGP under the MFD selection? Please

It’s not a “weapon camera” it’s the missile seeker - which yes, leaves with the weapon. Yes - you need to also carry the TGP, and that is the post launch video you’ve seen. Use the TGP to funnel in, then lock the MAV.

Are you talking about Mavs or Gbu-15/Delilah?

Mav’s in TGP lock different than in WPN. Seems like in WPN I get a lot less misses too as there with AGM65D almost every shot was a kill and after firing my last maverick the TGP remains active while in WPN it goes off.
