A guide to: CCRP

I think we’d need more info than that. I’d assume that there is no CCRP target selected…

Does it show CCRP next to the selected weapon? Are you sure you have a target selected?

How do you select/release the bombs? Per [Drop bomb] /Drop bomb series] command or via [Select secondary weapon] and [Fire secondary weapon]?

See also Use of CCRP in Sim battles (Sim EC) | War Thunder Wiki, paragraph “Prerequisite: Weapon selection”.

i remember they added ability to switch CCRP modes between old style CCRP and able to drop bombs even not at the point last patch…

Seems like this was the culprit for me, it was set to off, resulting in this behaviour:

I turned it on, and now CCRP is functioning as intended. I thought the setting did exactly what it says: releases bombs without intervention from the player.

Hi, can someone explain the difference between “activate target point” and “sight stabilization”
Both of these buttons work the same for both CCRP and guided weapons.

I dont have any aircraft unlocked to test this but I think difference is one of the ballistic computer.

Activate Target point doesn’t work on aircraft without a bombing ballistic computer where as sight stabilization can be used within any AGM or targeting pod.

Where an aircraft has a ballistic computer (which is the majority) AGM/Tpods afix to the CCRP point created by the ballistic computer

It looks like one of the functions is a bit useless, and it’s just an extra button.

Yeah, in 99% of use cases, they can be interchanged, but I guess its that 1% where its worthwhile to have both options available

And also how do i know the excatct position of the base because i just cant seem to find it

If you are targetting a base via the map, make sure to zoom in on the map first. Placing the marker when zoomed out is very innacurate.

It does depend on HUD and Practice helps a lot, but looking for landmarks near the target like a river or town can help visually find it.

What aircraft are you using?

F4S phantom

Ah, that has only a sight, not an actual HUD, yes? Most Phantoms have the issue that there is no indicator for CCRP, in Sim even though the real aircraft showed direction to CCRPtarget on the sigjt. F-111 and F-105 have that issues as well.

I think the F-4S does actually have an upgraded HUD with CCRP symbology. WOuld have to double check though

Yeah it has a line in the middle when ccrp is engaged

Being a premium I can jump into a test flight, try it out and provide some more direct help.

I think what may be the issue is that you need to ensure the sight mode is set to “Bomb (Auto)” otherwise it wont show the correct symbology for CCRP. It sometimes doesnt automatically switch from “Bomb” to “Bomb (Auto)” when CCRP is enabled and needs to be manually selected. If you dont do that, the symbology appears to bug and just float randomly in-line with the aircraft until you have “Bomb (auto)” selected and the bombs selected.

I havent played Sweden, but the JA37C is very good for the BR. (very very good radar for an 11.3)

I’ve heard the AJ37 and AJS37 are okay mud movers, but there is a lot of compromising you have to do with their loadouts
