Home Fries 8 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 I came across this video from ralfidude. I've been a fan of his videos for some time, but this one is great common sense and "good to know" tips. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M8yiAjQ7ps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Report post Posted November 13, 2013 Another video. The theme is dropping multiple JDAMs, but the real takeaway is the use of Markpoints. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy-RNLLP-Rs&feature=share&list=PLD3E628696DCD7A08 Just a point of clarification: flight plan and mission waypoints use numbers, whereas Markpoints use letters A-Z (Z being reserved for the last weapon release). This is why he is able to create a Markpoint flightplan just choosing points A-C. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Report post Posted December 19, 2013 Another great video that explains how the TGP works, and why it's good to lase your target prior to dropping a JDAM (even though the JDAM is not laser guided). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOZ18GNPI-c Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Report post Posted December 20, 2013 A couple of battlespace/target management videos by Gerry Abbott http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHLYXlPto1w Note: if you watched the video in the previous post, you'll understand the target offset at the end of this video This one's a bit longer, but you'll definitely get something out of it. The Bulls-Cursor selection was pretty cool IMHO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTIguQdI4ZI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An excellent primer on how to use UTM/MGRS coordinates (and why the ground pounders use them).

Home Fries 8 Report post Posted January 22, 2014 I've watched these videos more than once as well. Best bet is to watch, do, watch. That way you have a frame of reference to catch something the second time around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Report post Posted February 21, 2014 Another video by Ralfidude on SAM hunting. He also ingeniously uses Mark Points to delineate friendly lines, helpful to avoid blue-on-blue engagements. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8IjkpOOgW0&list=UU7lK8qHqm21bv2jW6TKdNKA&feature=share Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
