kenportner Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Hi. Just bought SF2 I and tried a single mission with an A 4E. It doesn't appear to have a sight for dumb bombs . How are you supposed to launch the weapon on target? Thanks. Quote
+Fubar512 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) The Skyhawk, like many of its contemporaries, had a T.L.A.R gunsight that was used for both gunnery and bombing, as well as a LABS timer for nuclear weapons delivery. Edited January 30, 2015 by Fubar512 Quote
+Dave Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 There is no easy answer to this. There was no CCIP back then, it was all dive bombing and math. I have practiced on the range terrain many many many times to get the right feel and have been able to hit targets. So the short answer is practice. Quote

+Dave Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 TLAR; tried and true after about the first 1000 times you do it. Quote
+SupGen Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 ken, check out this thread, especially the links in the second post: http://combatace.com/topic/82375-any-good-bombing-instructions/ . Good luck! Quote
+EricJ Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 Kinda why I like modern aircraft, I'm too impatient to worry about TLAR though, so CCIP and Guided is how I approach it. Quote
