Home Fries 8 Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) (virtual) VFA-113's tutorial on MGRS coordinates. By 14th_Jar. An excellent primer on how to use UTM/MGRS coordinates (and why the ground pounders use them). EDIT: hyperlink updated Edited January 22, 2014 by Home Fries Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Skeeter 0 Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Thanks for posting these videos, Home Fries. I went through them once and will be watching again. I already learned a lot. Skeeter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
Home Fries 8 Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share 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 Link to post Share on other sites
