CHAPTER TEN T-45 WEAPONS/STRIKE For a big steep (target lies 35 degrees): For a big steep initial sight picture, a big correction is required. If the target lies on the 35 degree pitch ladder, place the Velocity Vector on the target. This will keep the target from moving up or down. Approaching checkpoint altitude (about 200’ above), smoothly set the Target Placement Angle, which may end up being just a little steep by the time the TPA is set. You should be within 1 degree of the planned dive angle. Make the appropriate corrections, if needed (should be minimal). DO NOT JUST SET THE PLANNED DIVE ANGLE WITHOUT RESPECT TO THE TPA! For a WAY steep (target lies greater than 35 degrees): Safe up the system. Do not attempt to drop. You may go through the procedures of correcting, but don’t allow the Velocity Vector below the target to try and drive the target up. If anything, place the Velocity Vector on the target, approaching the checkpoint, set the TPA and evaluate. Make the corrections in your mind and abort the run prior to release altitude. Checkpoint Altitude to Release Figure 10-10 Way Steep: ABORT The procedures from checkpoint altitude to release are exactly the same as all other tracking techniques. Straight path tracking to release. Pickle referencing the aimpoint and altitude, not solely referencing the altitude or pipper/aimpoint. If the initial sight picture was other than optimum, evaluate what caused it and fix it on the next run. Evaluate the speed at checkpoint and release – adjust to make it what you want. And, probably most importantly, where was my pipper placement and where did my hit go? Move the pipper placement to put the bombs where you want them to go. 10-10 ADDITIONAL WEAPONS MANEUVERS / TARGET TRACKING
T-45 WEAPONS/STRIKE CHAPTER TEN Corrections for the 20 and 10-degree patterns The 20-degree pattern corrections are identical to the 30-degree pattern, except for being 10 degrees shallower on the run. The 10-degree pattern, you are looking for 2 – 2 ½ degrees depressed initially and 4 degrees depressed (14 degrees) at the checkpoint. Again, set the TPA of 4 degrees at checkpoint and track the resulting Flight Path Angle to release. 1003. TARGET ATTACKS WITHOUT TARGET WAYPOINT DISTANCE 1004. INTRODUCTION The T-45A and all training aircraft of years gone by have all flown the weapons pattern without a target waypoint. If you have developed the proper look-out procedures in the T-45C pattern, flying without a target waypoint should not be any different. The approach turn, roll-in technique and pull to the abeam are all the same. The big difference in this pattern is the roll-in without a definitive distance from the target. Ground gouge for the roll-in distance will help, however, the eyeball calibration development of “that looks about right”, or “T-LAR”, on target distance is the objective of this pattern. This type of situation can be encountered in the real world if you were called upon to cover an immediate Close Air Support mission such as a scenario where Marines are pinned down and cannot construct the target coordinates for you. It would be up to you to deliver some support to the Ground Combat Element without it. So gaining the knowledge of T-LAR is an important skill set to have. Turn to Abeam After recovery, at a pitch attitude of 10 degrees above the horizon, apply MRT, relax g, roll to 60 degrees AOB, and initially apply 4 g to reach the abeam position slightly inside the cone. During the turn, you will have to locate your interval (the aircraft immediately preceding you in the pattern). Procedures in the event you cannot locate your interval are given later, under "Safety." After 90 degrees of turn, maintain 2-3 g and begin to reduce power to arrive at the abeam on altitude and airspeed. Abeam Position The abeam position is a point slightly inside the cone and abeam the target; your heading is 180 degrees from the run-in line. The abeam distance is slightly less than two nautical miles. At the abeam, begin a slight AOB turn of about 10 – 15 degrees (wind dependent). Abeam to Roll-In Between the abeam position and the roll-in, the aircraft follows a circular arc, moving from slightly inside to slightly outside the cone. Pattern altitude must be maintained from the abeam to ADDITIONAL WEAPONS MANEUVERS / TARGET TRACKING 10-11
