In this training mission we enter North Korean airspace to target the anti aircraft assets escorting a headquarters battalion road column. A follow on flight of A10's will deal with the remaining vehicles. This gives us the opportunity to learn more about the AGM65 Maverick missile, and in particular the D variant. We will first boresight the missiles using DD963 Spruance as a reference point before crossing the coast, and after a flight through a valley at low level we will enter a plateau, locate the column, identify the ZSU 23-4's escorting it, and destroy them with accurately placed missiles.
TO DESIGNATE ZSU's: Designate with the TGP using TMS Up to command Point Track. HANDOFF IN PROGRESS should appear on the WPN page, and a C appears over the weapon station number. Switch to the next Maverick with the MSL STEP button and repeat the process. With a steady pointing cross the Mavericks are ready to be fired.
NOTE: To avoid the TGP handoff fail error during boresighting you may designate the target using the TGP prior to uncaging the Maverick. You may also adjust the magnification level on the TGP's NARO display using the manual range knob, which is ALT+F3 and ALT+F4 by default.
