AGM-123

[Pulkzestörer]

Just wondering, can a loadout be made for the workshop giving the A-6E 4 AGM-123 Skippers. And perhaps a mod to increase the range of the "Pave Tack" Laser Designator.

I would rather them change its function, along with GBUs. They deployment of both are basically the same as level bombing and it negates any of the standoff advantage of the weapons.

Yes it can be.

How so? The GBUs are dropped, the AGM-123 Can be launched from 13.5nm away.

Perhaps give the A-7E 4 AGM-123 with a laser designator?

What do you want the pave tack range to be? It's already well within the range based on real world data. 10nm or 18.5km.

Do you want a new loadout all together with 4 skippers or just replace the rockeyes on the anti-ship precision loadout?

[Pulkzestörer]

I'd say replace the 4 rockeyes with a pair of skippers. As for the pave tack, i know what i'm asking is unhistorical, but that's what the workshop is for. I'm thinking of a range of 20nm and able to designate several targets simultaneously.

[Pulkzestörer]

i'd say 4 targets at once

[Pulkzestörer]

Or Perhaps a loadout for the A-6E carrying Laser Designator Pods.

Yeah, I agree with your workshop sentiment. I just needed to know the distance you wanted.

Anyway, let me know if it's working. I tested it and all seems ok. If you're using NTU, you'll most likely need to put this above NTU in your load order.

[Pulkzestörer]

OMG I thought you were joking, thank you so much!

[Pulkzestörer]

So, just one question. What does the Target Channels increased from 2 to 4 mean? Can i now designate 4 targets at once?

[IRememberJeep]

In theory. I've never actually engaged multiple targets at once with them to be honest. It should support dropping four at once at four separate targets.

[Pulkzestörer]

Strange because when i went into the Encyclopedia the A-6E's Pave Tack only showed that it had 1 channel, and its radar only had 2, i'll try rearranging it in the Mod Menu

[IRememberJeep]

Radar doesn't matter for the AGM-123 to my understanding. It's only guiding on laser.

Try putting it at the top of your load order. The Pave Tack has 2 channels by default, so I'm not sure why it would show only one. That's not my doing.

Going to try now
