I'm so dumb. Right after you showed which control bindings to use, I actually hit esc looking for the controls. Not in game, but while watching the video full screen. I feel like an addict.
a lot of people, including myself up until about 10 minutes ago, don't know that in some recent update, the bombs were changed to lock on after launch, so basically to do it, just get the white square and use the continuously calculated impact point (CCIP) (the place that it predicts it will land) close to the square and the bomb does the rest
ArmA 3 really needs a trim system for aircraft. Maybe im spoiled by DCS But nothing is more satisfying than getting the aircraft trimmed just enough to maintain a bank angle and Orbit an area with little need for input letting you more or less focus on the weapon systems and spotting. As always, love the content. Keep up the great work!
Forgot to say: an aspect that could really use a tutorial is ATGM's. Many people do not realize that some of the missiles will not lock on a target that is not moving, some need active radar, some need IR, etc.
Ive been using the dynamic loadouts page of the armed assault wiki for the most complete guide ive been able to find with stats on all bombs and missiles
I remember when i was Jet pilot in Arma 2... -I'm closing to area, please set laser marker on targets. ...Plane gets a target... -Do you confirm laser on target ? Spotter: Yes -Dropping bombs System : Do not kill teammates. Me -.- Spotter: Lol that was squad leader XD
I really like ArmA and I'd love to play with my friends but the thing is that they DON'T understand how the game works. One of them wants to be a sniper all the time (Yeah pretty cliche [don't take it personally if you play a sniper unit mainly, it's just that he has played a little too much cod...]) and they are running in the front lines, like... Dude you're supposed to be a supportive unit somewhere with a good line of sight to the AO. They are way too aggressive which gets us killed whenever we try to play the game. I wish they learned the game, that way it would be more fun for everyone involved. This is not really related to the video at all, I just wanted to rant a little bit.
That happens with most people that transition from regular FPS games to arma 3, try to teach them, if they don't wanna learn you are more than welcome to join me and my friends :)
@@miguellopes2452 nope, i came from cod and mainly battlefield, its just a bunch of fools who think every game is the exact same and if it isnt they will still try to force it to work, when it fails they will call the game trash
You dont have to drop a lot of altitute when wanting to drop a bomb almost straight down. Dropping a bomb when you're in the laser camera will still make it lock (even if it doesnt say it has a lock) later. As long as its been selected as a target for the bomb, its fine.
I'm a US Navy Disabled Veteran. I'm just starting to learn how to use Arma 3 Apex and the Jet DLC pack. Thanks for your video as it has helped me quite a bit. At the moment I have the Logitech Extreme 3D Flight Stick until I can afford a better one. Do you have any idea of a good setup for the Logitech Extreme 3D Flight Stick? Thanks!!
Maybe these entries help you Sir steamcommunity.com/app/107410/discussions/0/340412122411254165 forums.bohemia.net/forums/topic/193668-joystick-configuration/
I have the same joystick. I extended all the wires connecting the base to joystick & used a pvc pipe & hose clamp & extended the joystick & bought the cheapest thrustmaster throttle & pedal. The extension made the joystick wayyyy better in my opinion, but atleast the way I did it, I lost the twist function (which I dont need since I bought pedals).
In vanilla, you need to target the designated laser (with 'T' or 'R') before the GBU will guide to it (it's easiest to do this in the Targeting Pod view right after you've started laser designating). You don't need a solid lock if you're at high altitude - the GBU will execute the required trajectory. At lower altitudes, a solid lock may be required for accurate bombing. Approximately line the CCIP up with the target and the lock will go solid.
I don't like to pilot aircraft in Arma 3 but if the day comes when I must adapt for one of my milsim missions it's extremely helpful to know this. I feel most people who claim their experienced pilots don't know this stuff. Awesome video man, subbed.
I find this guy really helpful I’ve been looking for the thermal controls for about a month now and I finally found out how to do it so thank you so much.
RedCardei Red he has more than a Dozen tutorials, search his playlists or his channel. Arma is confusing to new players because it plays very different to other video games, but once you get the hang of it, it's probably the most fun game to play, especially with friends.
G'day mate, just an FYI you do not need to acquire a solid diamond lock in order to release the weapon. You can release the weapon without the solid lock and it will still (within reasonable release parameters) hit it's target. This means dive-bombing with LGBs is no longer needed.
Even tho its a little late... You fricking helped me a lot! just got my first multi kill with those GBUs from like 1500m and saved like 5-6 mates that got shoot by some Humvees! Luv u
SO informative, i have 600+ hours on the game and never knew i could lock GBUs for my self... always thought you needed to coordinate with boots on the ground with laser designation. Feel like an idiot
The lock on mechanic is gone it has been replaced by a more realistic system where you have to target a lazed target and use your unguided drop hud to drop the bomb in the general vicinity of your laser and the bomb will do the rest So you have to lase the target by yourself or let someone else do it... when approaching the target press R so that it is active. After that, like i have explained above, drop your bomb. Your unguided drop hud hasnt to match perfectly with the target... there could be one full "circle" from the unguided drop hud difference. Than watch the explosion.
Well it helped me alot, but with the Modlist my clan uses, I need to drop it then, when the X in the CTRL - Right Click or the green bomb drop circle is on/near the target. Otherwise it wont track. ^^
I was gonna ask how old this video was, cause scouting at 2500m is impossible these days. We need a view distance update. Just give the admin a console command, PLEASE
Hey I am very confused here, when I try this im not sure if it's because it's an old update or soemthing, but when I lock on I don't get any diamonds or locks at all, I instead get a little tiny green square and then I release, I am confused on how to laser guide when my marker thing is a tiny tiny little green [ ] over the target.
I had the exact same issue. Yeah its been changed now. Instead of getting a lock. You have to watxh for the 2 crosshairs to meet in the targeting view then drop the bomb. It locks on after being dropped
Yeah, there was a change with the Jets DLC. I just made a huge reply to another guy here so you could check that out maybe. Short answer though is you want to move the circle of the continuously calculated impact point (CCIP) over the small green square when you release the bomb.
What the hell are the odds lol. Been watching Luetin since 2018 for Warhammer 40k and then I find this video from him while searching for it as I recently got into Arma lmao. I guess interests align
in my case the minigun start doing BRRRRRT...probably mods who mess up the vanilla controlls. Still dont know how to swich on the laser in exile....-.-
Very heplful video thank you. Tolles Video hat mir sehr geholfen ein bisschen besser du die ganzen Arma cotrols durch zu schauen und das fliegen von Missionen zu verbessern.
I don't understand... after locking an area and turning the laser ON I never been able to get the white box/diamond indicator to show up on any screen telling me I'd have a lock on the position I've lased.... is this a tutorial for some specific mod?
Hi i had the same problem this is because the video is slightly outdated currently aslong as the laser marker is placed and you are on the right path and in range the bomb will hit. It is exactly the same just no box
it has been changed to lock on aftrer launch, so basically drop the bomb so that it will land close (the plane predicts the impact point) and then the bomb will do the rest
Sterling Driggs there is but it locks on after launch, its like imagine if you turn the bomb on as you drop it and as the camera at the front of the bomb turns on it will lock onto whatever laser designation it sees first within a 120 degree cone
Thanks a lot Mate had a lot struggle With bombing and Generally using Jets since i Play this Game learned a Bunch. Could You maybe do a Tutorial Foto a to a Combat and Gau or maincannon using
Arma's simulation of munitions is a bit wierd. Apparently, they have no mass (sauce: forums.bistudio.com/forums/topic/204453-calculating-the-distance-a-bomb-would-travel/). Nobody seems to have found a way to calculate the exact impact point of a bomb. Having said that, toss bombing (including 'over-the-shoulder' boming) *definitely* *works* - however, when you pitch above the horizon too far, the CCIP stops working. So, unless you are using GBUs, employing this method will be very inaccurate.
Cool. I thought of it mainly because bombs deployed that way tend to be falling near-vertical on final approach, and if you do it right it gives you a bit of extra stand-off with the weapon, which could be useful if there's heavy AAA.
I dont know if they changed something these 3 years but it almost impossible to fly in a straight line while in camera mode for me, the aircraft's nose is going up all the time.
Ive been flying every plane with a bomb so wrongly without the bloody lazer markers. I feel like a prick because i keep asking people on my team to lazer mark for me
I can hit perfect with the laser guided bombs obviously if the planes has a laser designator. But all the missiles dont lock on at all for meiv noticed alot of people say this. Is that a bug?

so I tried to do this in a server and I can't see anything if I fly higer than 1,000m. I put in the highest viewing distance on my settings. Any help? Thanks.
I don't get it, I'm doing exactly what you're describing and it's not working. My target is lazed but I can't find the double squares indicating a lock for my GBUs. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Don't know if context help but I'm playing on Sandbox. Don't know if it needs to be a different situation. If you have scenarios to suggest I'm all ears.
it has been changed to lock on aftrer launch, so basically drop the bomb so that it will land close (the plane predicts the impact point) and then the bomb will do the rest
Ok so my laser guided bombs don’t work i turn the laser guide on and switch to the bombs then turn around but then it doesn’t have the lock on symbol so the bombs won’t work
I want to change the key bind for the targeting pod to a button on my joystick. But no matter what I set it to in the options, in game it just doesn't work. Even just setting it to an unused keyboard button doesn't work. Any advice on what I'm doing wrong?
Hey everyone. I've put about 400 hours into Arma 3, but I've just been wondering what are the best types of servers to play on? I guess I want something cool and fun that I could play for some hours and not be bored with it. I've already been playing things like KOTH :P Also nice video Luetin :)
That depends a lot on what kind of experience you want from Arma, but here's some fun ones that don't require a set group of people to play with and are pretty accessible: - Battleroyale: Infantry last man standing game mode with a shrinking play area. Drop out of a plane, loot gear, fight, survive and try to win. Not too hard to get into, but a really long learning curve if you want to compete with the top players. - EUTW: objective based combined arms game mode. Take and hold objectives and advance along a line of such objectives towards the enemy base. The enemy tries the same with you. In a round you gain points which you use to buy/unlock gear or vehicles. Unlike KotH the points get collected only for that round not for persistent levels so everyone starts on equal footing. - Wasteland: combined arms combat with both fixed objective areas that need to be captured as well as random missions. The experience can differ a lot depending on what the server settings are and which mods are active. If you're solo you can join bluefor/opfor and just use game chat to communicate and play with the team and usually find some decent guys to run with. Theres a lot of really cool custom stuff that pretty much requires joining a group as well, but you'd have to look around on the forums about joining those. The more mil sim it is the more it tends to be groups doing it instead of being played on public servers since the experience suffers on pubs.
What mod do you use for the AI in Zeus? I remember you saying in your ~40 minute guide you used an AI mod to make the AI listen. What is it? I would like to use it because I've been doing some Zeus V Zeus RTS style and the AI is so dumb its extremely frustrating.
@@restaurantsadan3726 Yes, I had. I figured out how to do it, but why it didn't happen for him is a mistery to me. The bombs only lock on to the target AFTER being dropped. Also, they go after the laser, not a designated target.

Agreed, it took me a lot of trial and error to figure out how Mavericks lock on to targets.
BIS need to update the field manual with the target methods for each munition IMO, this shouldn't be something you need trial and error for.

How do you know if your laser has locked on now and your in range to drop, because now, you no longer get the square with the diamond
The lock on mechanic is gone it has been replaced by a more realistic system where you have to target a lazed target and use your unguided drop hud to drop the bomb in the general vicinity of your laser and the bomb will do the rest

Maxi thanks ive been wondering that
In real life the only way you would know if your bomb is locked on is by doing an LSS with a TGP. You don’t actually know range until then.
Fantastic explanation I do say. Laser guided GBUs are fun.
Love the Star Citizen music!

it has been changed to lock on aftrer launch, so basically drop the bomb so that it will land close (the plane predicts the impact point) and then the bomb will do the rest
Ok so my laser guided bombs don’t work i turn the laser guide on and switch to the bombs then turn around but then it doesn’t have the lock on symbol so the bombs won’t work
your introsound comes from battlefield bad company 2 or ?
I want to change the key bind for the targeting pod to a button on my joystick. But no matter what I set it to in the options, in game it just doesn't work. Even just setting it to an unused keyboard button doesn't work. Any advice on what I'm doing wrong?
Hey everyone. I've put about 400 hours into Arma 3, but I've just been wondering what are the best types of servers to play on? I guess I want something cool and fun that I could play for some hours and not be bored with it. I've already been playing things like KOTH :P
Also nice video Luetin :)
That depends a lot on what kind of experience you want from Arma, but here's some fun ones that don't require a set group of people to play with and are pretty accessible:
- Battleroyale: Infantry last man standing game mode with a shrinking play area. Drop out of a plane, loot gear, fight, survive and try to win. Not too hard to get into, but a really long learning curve if you want to compete with the top players.
- EUTW: objective based combined arms game mode. Take and hold objectives and advance along a line of such objectives towards the enemy base. The enemy tries the same with you. In a round you gain points which you use to buy/unlock gear or vehicles. Unlike KotH the points get collected only for that round not for persistent levels so everyone starts on equal footing.
- Wasteland: combined arms combat with both fixed objective areas that need to be captured as well as random missions. The experience can differ a lot depending on what the server settings are and which mods are active. If you're solo you can join bluefor/opfor and just use game chat to communicate and play with the team and usually find some decent guys to run with.
Theres a lot of really cool custom stuff that pretty much requires joining a group as well, but you'd have to look around on the forums about joining those. The more mil sim it is the more it tends to be groups doing it instead of being played on public servers since the experience suffers on pubs.
great video
Thanks
This was helpfull, Thanks !
how did you get that lock icon
how do i lock on to the laser marker? i tried hit t but notthing happen, and my GBU bomb drop just like a dumb bomb. yes, i turned the laser on
So basically, after bombs away, the bombs will guide themselves towards the laser des.?
@MistakenBacon ight thanks
military jets aren't planes anymore they're moving battlespace managers
What mod do you use for the AI in Zeus? I remember you saying in your ~40 minute guide you used an AI mod to make the AI listen. What is it? I would like to use it because I've been doing some Zeus V Zeus RTS style and the AI is so dumb its extremely frustrating.
doesnt appear to work for me, point laser at target, turn it on but doesnt designate it
15:45 You turn around and see that square, that does not happen for me. Any settings that I'm missing?
have you selected the bombs?
@@restaurantsadan3726 Yes, I had. I figured out how to do it, but why it didn't happen for him is a mistery to me. The bombs only lock on to the target AFTER being dropped. Also, they go after the laser, not a designated target.
how do you get into that camera view so that you can access the laser?
you have to bind it in the options
Do most people play with the real vehicles mod?
