A-10 CCIP Bombing In LOMAC Page 7
Back To Page 6 Summary OK… let’s hit the high points and then call it a day. A good attack starts with good parameters. Use our parameters to fly a realistic bombing pattern. Understand the LASTE HUD symbology for A2G bombing. Understand the concept of the AOP and its relationship to s typical A2G flight […]

Back To Page 5 Moving Targets The last thing I want to mention is a way to deal with moving targets. While the CCIP may seem to be “magic” sometimes, it still doesn’t know that there is a target down there! It’s telling you that if you pickle now, the bomb will land at […]

Back To Page 4 Tracking The Target We are now in the final stage of the pass prior to release. We’ve set our AOP-target-CCIP ratio, and we’re now “coming down the chute”. Your work is not yet done… you have several things to watch. One is AOP placement, one is your airspeed, and the […]

Back To Page 3 The Initial Aiming Problem To aim with, we need an aiming reference. We have a flight path symbol… the TVV… but it isn’t much good when we’re turning or pulling g. We know when we are at one g that the TVV is pretty much centered in the top half […]

Back To Page 1 CCIP Display There are three main features of the bombing display… the flight path marker, the bomb fall line, and the bombing pipper. Total Velocity Vector (TVV) The TVV shows the point that your flight path is aimed at. This marker is also known as the flight path marker. If […]
A-10 CCIP Bombing In LOMAC
by Andy Bush Bombing Theory None of the A-10 “bombs” are terminally guided weapons… they are all freefall “dumb” bombs, no different from weapons used since WW1. Once released, they follow a predictable trajectory until impact. The only thing that HUD designs have done over the years is to give the pilot a better idea […]
