In this video we cover a weapon that doesn't normally get talked about, the AGM-12 Bullpup. The Bullpup was a radio controlled air to ground missile that was one of the very early guided weapons that was mass produced.

I was going crazy trying to make the 12C's work thank you for confirming that they are not working at the moment

Yeap. Heatblur confirmed it's a problem at the moment.

One note - the AGM-12A is only semi working. It looses its 3D model once fired, only the smoke and flare are visible. It impacts and explodes though.

so they made us wait 2 years + 6 months + 2 months delay + last delay saying this was their best work ever etc etc only to release the module not working that properly?

@@michelestefanini5466 have you ever seen a module launch without delays and fully finished and with no bugs? that's normal for DCS. Compared to the F16 this is an amazing release. You can actually fly thing thing, do A/G and A/A with most weapons

Me too! I thought it was weird that other content creators didn't even touch this in their previews.

This is like controlling the malyutka from a bmp-1 in ghpc but you're in a plane and constantly moving, i was at first expecting like a viggen type of easy to it

i tried your instructions and the AGM-12C does not fire off, can you clarify the pickle button ? is it the Bomb Button ?? I can only fire the gun.

@LockDCS 21 күн бұрын

The AGM-12 C is bugged. The B version is the only fully working version.

You should probably use a slew cursor on your throttle or stick instead of keys for the weapon slew. Makes it a hell of a lot easier to guide the weapon.

If only I had that on my stick.

Thank you! I'm looking forward to covering all of the aspects of the Phantom that I can, starting off with things that nobody seems to have covered yet.

You might want to use analog controls for weapon slew, you gain more control over the missile that way (the fins are pulsed with frequency proportional to stick deflection instead of being fully deflected the whole time).

Nice! I didn't think it was that detailed. But sadly I don't have a fancy HOTAS yet that can let me do that yet.

@Ramirez4565 23 күн бұрын

Do you have any knowledge of soldering? I have an old TWCS Throttle you can have if you’re interested in making small repairs on it…

@LockDCS 23 күн бұрын

Actually, that's a small part of my job. I'd be up for it. Eventually I want to build my own HOTAS from scratch so that would be cool to start by repairing one.

If you are controlling from the WSO seat that could work on servers that allow it.

So basicly a Fritz-X with a rocket motor.

@nomennisceo6495 11 күн бұрын

Not just that, Max Otto Kramer the designer of the Fritz-X worked for the government in “pilotless aircraft and missile development” while the guidance kit was being developed… so chances are it literally a Fritz-X with a rocket motor (and a few upgrades)

@adrianpaz472 23 күн бұрын

Seems easier to just use rockets. No wonder why the bullpup was so short lived.

@LockDCS 23 күн бұрын

It is... for certain targets. The Bullpup really is meant to hit large targets like buildings, large ships, and concentrated troop formations. Even then the B model with the 250lb warhead doesn't deal a ton of damage. I would imagine the C model would be great against ships and large buildings but that isn't working right now. However for light targets rockets and even the gunpods are the way to go. Even HEAT rockets can deal with armor decently if you use a large ripple close in so they have a good chance of a direct hit.
