DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer - Laser Guided Rockets

  • Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
  • In this DCS: A-10C II Tank Killer video, we’ll look at the Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System, or APKWS laser-guided rocket. The APKWS consists of either M151 or M282 2.75-inch rocket mated with a laser guidance kit.
    Based on a laser- designation from your targeting pod our an offboard laser-designation source, the APKWS, also referred to as the AGR-20A, can have pinpoint accuracy on targets out to around 5 miles.
    The M151 version has a high explosive warhead and the M282 version has a penetrator warhead. Both versions are ideal against unarmored and lightly armored targets. However, the AGR-20A is not designed to defeat tank armor.
    Seven APKWS rockets are carried in each LAU-131 rocket pod.

    Nice showcase of the FM, and the weapon! I do hope, Wags, down that development road, we see more realistic explosions, and also more realistic behavior from AI infantry and vehicles, who, after seeing a team mate take one, take a leaf out of the Lord Denethor book of responses to terror, and "flee for their lives." That being said, this a/c and the new systems have come together quite pleasingly...

    So let me get this straight, if you come up on an enemy encampment full of vehicles and soft targets, spend some time in the TGP setting up a ton of markpoints. Could you go to the first target, fire off like 8 rockets with a good interval between (7 seconds?), then as soon as the first rocket hits you select markpoint 2, designate, the laser moves to that target and the rocket hits that one, markpoint 3, designate...and so on and so forth?

    I'm having lots of fun with the new laser rockets, HMCS, and new turn ability. One issue, in a "gimbal roll" situation with the original Hawg, I would do a "China Hat Aft Short" to recenter the gimbal. Now that switches the tgt pod to "Laser Search". Outside of switching the tgt pod to "standby" then back to "A2G", is there a quick way to reset
    ecenter\unroll the gimbal?
    Also, I was flying the "Hard Quickstart" in VR and it starts you at dusk. As the light fades outside, my right eyeball begins to see the cockpit with a green "night vision" glow while my left eye does not. This causes discomfort at first, followed by pain as it gets darker out. It is terrible! I've noticed that fires on enemy planes have different intensities between eyes in VR and other general issues between eyes with lighting and effects. The clouds in VR are terrible. They have little blobs that roll with your head when close to the clouds, it looks bad. They also "chunk" in a and out of existence at different ranges and angles off-center of your vision, different clouds between eyes. They also need to be fixed ASAP.
    Finally, white-hot or black-hot IR on the tgt pod has crazy contrast swings that black out\white out the picture if a little smoke comes into view of the tgt pod, even just a little at the edge when zoomed all the way out.
    You should probably adjust the quickstart to hide these bugs (change the time of day, remove clouds, and remove all the fires\smoke) until they are fixed, just something about showcasing all of your bugs to the beginners jumping into the quickstart seems like a bad idea.
    Overall it was definitely worth the $10 though, and these bugs will be fixed quickly right Wags?
