Title: Guided Weapons, how do they work?
Post by: wave04 on May 23, 2023, 08:20:26 PM
They've gotten me stumped more than anything in the modpack. IR-guided missiles? no problem, point and shoot. Radar-Guided missiles like the AIM-54, AIM-120 and AIM-7 are basically the same as well. Laser-Guided bombs with the TGP, the KH-66 on the russian side, the guided anti-ship missiles I can just not wrap my head around. I have no idea how to use them properly nor can I find any resources or guides on that. If any of you know, I would love to make this post a place to collect all the knowledge about guided munitions and how to use them.

Many thanks in advance!

For laser-guided stuff, it's the misc keys. Somewhere in your controls, there's a huge list of misc keys that you can set keybinds for. Try all of them, they control the laser guidance systems for a lot of the laser-guided weapons. I think some can also use the bombsight altitude and left/right keys, but I'm not sure about that.
