Re: Questions about the CAS system.

Before reading the rest yet,

*edit: Well I cant type it lol. Let's just say **** is the f-word in both cases .

Oh and you need the qinling training map.

This is my "depressed stance." When you're depressed, it makes a lot of difference how you stand. The worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you'll start to feel better. If you're going to get any joy out of being depressed, you've got to stand like this. ~Charlie Brown

The AGMs (missiles) have a pretty decent damage radius, with one missile able to take out about four tanks parked tightly in a square formation. I would recommend using the AGMs for precise targets such as vehicles, and enemy infantry that is near friendly troops.

The LGBs (bombs) have a much larger damage radius than the missiles, however, I am never close enough to the ground in my A-10 to see how large the radius is, so I have to estimate about half of a square coordinate grid on the in-game maps.

There is no difference between CO laser targets and SL laser targets. They both function the same way and are deployed the same way.

Re: Questions about the CAS system.

Scout heli co-pilot can lazer designate by pressing 2

The altitude given in aircraft is above sea level, if your target is not at sea level make sure you account for the additional height needed to maintain 500m distance

Re: Questions about the CAS system.

maybe this has been answered, I am just not seeing it. But, when dropping GPS bombs, how do you know when to release? When you see a green box like the lazer guided missles? Or when you are 500m higher than the target and X meters away?

any help is always greatly appreciated.

You need to be 500m above the target and according to the official movie, 500 to 700 meters away from the target. I usually release when I 'm about 1 grid square away from the target.

When bombing a target with the LGBs (from the CAS Aircraft), I like to stay at about 600-700 altitude above the target area. I DO NOT fly low enough so that I can see the green box, even though I know it's there, because I find myself lower or too close to the 500 altitude mark when trying to find the box. So, basically I fly over the target area, LISTEN for my pilot-character to say "I've Got Lock" or some Arabic/Chinese phrase, and then drop the bomb. Works every time, and puts you out of most harm's way.

Re: Questions about the CAS system.

Oh I never even do that, I trust the guy lasing, ask him when enroute to the target, check his pos then drop whenever im about 500 or 600m high up. So far its never missed its target, And since the laser can attack onto some things if the target is moving will the bombs be less likely to entirely eliminate the target than the missiles? (Just assuming missiles to be generally more accurate and versatile than bombs).
