Just a note, if you turn on the needle directors on the ADI they guide you in performing a 4g pullup, which the bombing computer is programmed for, and yaw input. They can help a lot in aiding precision
Im confused. How does the aircraft know that you want to drop bombs on a specific waypoint? Is there a way to designate the waypoint as a target point? If set up waypoint 1, 2, 3, 4&5, how do i let the plane know that I want to bomb waypoint 3?
Ok. Makes sense. So when you hit/hold bomb release, it knows to release the bomb at the right time to hit a point - whatever distance you entered- from the IP in the direction your jet happens to be pointing (hence the target waypoint and flight control to keep you on target)
Thank you for great video. Let say if we have detected a sam site during mission how we deal with that by lofting ? If we can not mark via F10 map, can we do loft bombing via visual targeting ? What will be they way use loft bombing ?
I did not set Target waypoint, as you pass the waypoint before Target (IP) Hold bomb release , computer knows distance from waypoint where you hold bomb release to next waypoint is target and 10 miles and does what you saw. Hope that helps,. You need only a waypoint on target and a waypoint before approx 10 miles for this.
Great video. I understand that the Phantom had some real life flight no nos like not using the ailerons for the roll at a certain AoA, you would use the rudder instead. Is this DCS Phantom modelled with the same type of accuracy?
@@MotorCitySCRIPTS actually at 1500 feet is what we set ( see 2:10 )and flew 550 ias is 564 kts True a difference of 14 kts. At 3000 feet 550ias is 570 True a difference of only 20 kts, at 5000 feet 550 ias is 585 True a difference of 35 kts. Now yes there is a difference, but like I said at low alt it is not enough to make a huge diffenece to an already inaccurate area attack. From what I can see 70 kts difference is just plain wrong ! and yes 70 kts would make a difference, not in this case ? (This is of course using DCS in game readings not real life)

wow, didn't know this thank you will try it :)
Good job, keep those videos coming!:D
Well done Shifty! keep up the good work, and please keep the videos coming!
how does you computer know where the IP point is? did you enter lat long coordinates in the jester menu?

It knows the next waypoint is target because as we pass a waypoint I hold the bomb release (at my IP, but in sim is just a waypoint).
do you need the target wpt and ip wpt set?both?
Great video Shiftie!

I mainly play multiplayer on 4YA, how to you set the IP point? i don't have this step clear
Not sure, I had the waypoints from mission editor set up. Sorry, I dont do MP.

We can mark with F10. The marks become waypoints in Jester's menu
noicee, im really enjoying learning the beast
Can you do a video on how to set up in the back seat for multicrew?
Sorry no I can't. 1 I don't fly multicrew or much Multiplayer and 2 I don't do WSO seat :) (haven't even looked much back there) maybe one day.
Do you have to set a target waypoint for this to work? If so, how do you do that, via F10 map?
I did not set Target waypoint, as you pass the waypoint before Target (IP) Hold bomb release , computer knows distance from waypoint where you hold bomb release to next waypoint is target and 10 miles and does what you saw.

@@shiftiemover4110 thats rather neat - thanks!
nice "snake impact pattern"
Bravo Sir, great video Shiftie
how do you set up the IP point?
its just a waypoint in mission editor at the moment, early access, improvise, overcome and adapt.
Thanks Shiftie.
what about target altitude?
Target altitude is set in the bomb table with jester ? R Crtl +B @1:55
Mine always fall short by 2 NM… no idea what i do wrong so now i just add 2 NM
The most wierd delivery mode thou must be O/S😅
Great video. I understand that the Phantom had some real life flight no nos like not using the ailerons for the roll at a certain AoA, you would use the rudder instead. Is this DCS Phantom modelled with the same type of accuracy?
yes, you get severe adverse yaw using ailerons at high Aoa just like the real thing which could be lethal at low alt.
Great stuff!
👏👏
Well done.
Your run in speed is wrong, on bomb table you enter 550 TAS but you fly 550 IAS
yes, i know but lets be honest, you cant read that and at low altitude they are so very close it doesn't matter :)
@@shiftiemover4110 Its about 70kts on your altitude, at this speed you miss a lot

Let me guess. You learned this by attempting during league bowling night. Lol. 🎳 😂 that was awesome. I can't wait to get home and try this now.
