CCIP for the F-111

[JosefK 911]

When I have fun flights, I kinda like jumping into the US jets (and Tornadoes) of the Cold War.  Not too happy with the lack of a CCIP in the @FastCargo & @viper63a F-111s so I have crafted my own.

Here are a few pictures of the end result:

It's not perfect and I don't terribly like the reticle.  But at least this lets me simulate radar bombing with CBUs and slicks.  Yes, back before the modern "smart weapon" era where it's click-point-shoot-boom.

Here's the current code that works in the F-111s' Avionics.INI and I put it at the very bottom:

Once I get something I'm 100% happy and not 80% with, hope it's okay to upload the details here for grins.  Already operationally tested this with cluster bombs and MK 82s as well as a LGB before posting here.

Thoughtfully;

Why would there be a problem in uploading the modification? (other than historical accuracy  )

I doubt there'll be any (real*) objections

 

 

* imagined ones, sure

Oh man, with F-111 you can destroy half of small country. It's probably not allowed to attack countries smaller than 10000 sq km, so where is a problem? . <-- .

[JosefK 911]

After a bit of research, I need to eliminate the line going down if I can.  But yeah, the reticle is real.  I just want some means to simulate radar bombing in lieu of TLAR (That Looks About Right).

[+guuruu 5,909]

Gimmie cockpit 3d and i'll do radar bombing for you ;-)

[+yakarov79 11,089]

not want to be rude but what is so special about this ccip ?

[+EricJ 4,245]

Just the fact that there is a CCIP, instead of trying to bomb by guessing, which is the case with the F-111.

[+dtmdragon 2,704]

F-111D had a HUD and CCIP bombing mode. Get it here:

Or here: (Ignore the what if Israeli skin)

I have the F-111D and it's HUD.  So will review the code for the above which I just downloaded.

No worries, see below @yakarov79!

Yup @EricJ.  If you're trying to take out say a radar site that's lit you up and blocking your path to the target, you really don't wanna be guessin... or if you want to just make one pass at the target, you want a CCIP.  Remember, SF2 doesn't simulate radar bombing nor a WSO.

[+yakarov79 11,089]

oh...just asking

cause I thought it was for years already here somewhere. At least I have it for ages in F-111.
