Su 25T Guided Weapons Tutorial

Another sample Su-25T mission - this time using guided weapons on the test range. Good for pilots new to DCS or as a refresher if you haven't flown the 25T in a while. Uses only elements available free in the base DCS game.
Download the mission to get the "no mods" test range that uses only stock elements from the game and a custom scoring script.

Thank you for making this interesting and informative lesson showing us how to use Su-25T Guided Weapons effectively.

No problem. Thanks for watching!

Fantastic. It’s not easy to find details like this, things like the use of Autopilot, distances, speeds and altitudes. Even if they’re not specifically mentioned, I read them from the HUD.

Thanks glad that you found it helpful. Hard to know what to include in the narration. It all goes by so fast!

Although I'm more or less efficient with the Su-25 systems, I watched this video thinking if I was a rookie pilot. Awesome instructions, especially mentioning have patience. Only suggestion would be going over control inputs maybe? Some people might not know what key is for laser on, or increase target size... I know that control setup is a reason why some people stop flying in DCS.

Yes. Very good point. I will work on that in future videos. Thanks so much for the feedback!

Thanks so much for the feedback. Nice to hear from you!

Loving these tutorials. One thing I don't think you mentioned is the need to trim the aircraft as soon as you turn off the AP after launching because it will immediately bank in the direction opposite to wing you launched from. That, for me, is the trickiest part of firing guided weapons with the Frogfoot.

[@Sidekick65]

Excellent point. Thanks for the tip.

[@misteriain6209]

@@Sidekick65 I should have added, this is only true for altitude (baro or radar) hold AP or no AP. The attitude hold AP will make that correction automatically if you leave it on for a second or two after firing.

Got it. Thanks

Gateway you said it :)

Great tutorial. A lot of great information. What in the game did you use for the walls there? Could not identify.

[@Sidekick65]

I think you might be looking at the shipping containers. There are a few that come with the standard game.
