Can EFT manually punch in coordinates?
Nope, not as far as I am aware. I think Fluffy is right. If its pure GPS guided weapon like GBU-39s, it doesnt need a tpod. If its GPS+Laser it needs a tpod because it has a laser option
So would be nice to have either pure GPS versions of GPS+Laser weapons or for GPS+Laser weapons to be usable without a tpod, but of course, no laser designation (perhaps just give a warning when equipping that loadout, but no hard restriction)
Yes. Was described several times in Typhoon by Mike Sutton which covered events in Op Shader

Remember that LJDAM product card I sent in typhoon thread? Has something about being able to carry LJDAM even without a laser pod iirc
I’m always right, just ask me.
Input by aircrew right before launch, or by ground crew?
I think this isnt a IRL thing, but a game thing
Laser = Tpod
doesnt matter if the laser guided weapon has other modes of operation
Bug report it
Imputted by the pilot. PW4s should also have DL allowing for GPS coordinates to be updated in mid-flight but thats been denied
I’ll enquire with Gunjob tomorrow I think. He’ll know. I want to say this was discussed when the GR4 was added, but I dont recall if there was any answer

Look at teh new Italian tornado. LJDAMs require pod, base JDAM does not. So it appears that’s the issue. If laser then require target pod.
Nice. Hopefully it gets fixed. At least it won’t really matter until buddy lasing is added, since who DOESNT use regular JDAMs?
Britain.

Su-30sm get added new NCTR identification categories. Detailed all planes.
Other craft get it too or russian bias?
Don’t the typhoons all get identical a2g or something?
Not as good as the flanker though. That thing fully ID’s jets
Yet not the French when from what I’ve gathered Rafale should be very good at IDing thingos.
That i think has been nerfed a bit down to preset categories. Of course the weakest is the Typhoon
Well NCTR is heavily classified on NATO stuff. So I guess it sort of makes sense it’s worse since there wouldn’t be as much info to go off of
