DCS: F-16C Viper – Multi-Target Engagement with AIM-120 AMRAAM
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
FOR NEXT OPEN BETA UPDATE
In a previous video we looked at the Track While Scan (TWS) mode of the F-16C. In this short video, we’ll look at how to use it with the AIM-120 AMRAAM air-to-air missile to simultaneously engage up to six targets.
The operation is quite simple:
1- Set the group of track targets as system targets (TMS right)
2- TMS right again to bug (designate) the closest target
3- Launch an AIM-120, then TMS right to cycle to the next in priority sequence, and then launch the next AIM-120
4- Rinse and repeat
Notes
All targets must be within the 25-degree scan area until their onboard seeker takes over.
Target will only get a search radar hit when engaged in this mode, until the AIM-120's radar goes active.
