CCRP Autorelease
Now we have enabled CCRP bomb automatic release. The CCRP instructions have been updated in the manual but just in case:
When in CCRP, the trigger instead of releasing the bombs, now functions as a release consent switch.
1. You must press the trigger as soon as you see the release cue.
2. Keep the trigger pressed for as long as the cue is in the HUD. The bombs will be automatically released when the cue crosses the diamond reticle center.
The CCRP target will clear when:
a. A bomb(s) has been released.
b. The cue is over the diamond reticle if no bomb has been released.
TAS is working and precision has improved. It still needs some work. But now bombs are hitting in elevation, even if they miss on azimuth (to the left or right).
