A-10 GBU Bombing using Laser Designator in ArmA 2 (with VopSound 2.1)

[@Ametis81]

There's no script. I only used editor, put 1 plane and 1 men with designator and several enemy units. And that's all

[@MAKAVELI412]

this was awesome

[@Ametis81]

That's because AI can see the target too which is locked by your friend even if AI is not in your squad) When your teammate has locked the target, try to press "TAB" key several times until you see it locked on your hud (green sqare)

[@vermanshane]

argh my bad just right your description, haha got it now thanks :D

[@9911MU51C]

@Ametis81 yeah i just tested it XD and i found out you can give the the attack order on rifleman and he'll use the minigun :D now i just need to figure out how to spawn planes in your squad far away...

[@nichopi12]

@glarg1256 yes, to target friendlies you have to do it yourself, which is impossible, without going through the menus.

[@CyclonicTuna023]

Can you actually guide GBU's without a spotter? Because I had some trouble using them, well actually I had some trouble guiding them to a target because i counld't aquire one.

[@Ametis81]

Check:
1. AI must have a higher rank
2. Is there anything blocking AI's sight or laser?
3. AI must be FAC unit with Laser Designator in his gear.

[@vermanshane]

so can you get the AI to laser target stuff for you?
Been trying to use scouts but its not working so far.

[@9911MU51C]

@CyclonicTuna023 you can but they are dumb-bomb (simple fall-boom bombs non guided)

[@9911MU51C]

@Ametis81 can you laser target for AI A10's?

[@steam308]

Do u just lock on like right click the lazed target and drop bombs?

[@mordeth86]

Niiiice

[@Ametis81]

@9911MU51C
Yes! It works fine!

[@Ametis81]

No, with TAB key

[@Ametis81]

Oh, select "GBU 12" first before you press "TAB" key))

[@Ametis81]

No, without a spotter you can't do this) cause GBU 12 - Laser Guided Bomb))
