also you can make own decal/roundel for ADES(see the ADES custom manual)

Killmark system(MP ONLY)

killmark system is for decorate the killmark on the aircraft with your score.

support air kill/ground kill /mixed types, customizable kill mark texture and manage your score.(for the

customization of kill mark texture, see the ADES custom manual)


for the test, 2 tanks, 2 cars and 2 planes on the map and unarmed.

in Multiplayer, you can see the scoreboard when press the score key(i)
and kill some enemies
press the score button, you’ve got a 2 tanks, 2 cars and 2 planes.

RTB, and close to the hangar and press Open Dialog Button
press the killmark button

(already I have some score)

press the SAVE button.


if can see the hint “saved”, your score is saved very well. also, each score increased(+2)

(there some placement error – select kill mark and select kills type is need to switch each other)

select the kill mark type(air only / ground only / air+ground), I’ve select mixing.

and select the killmarks, select CSAT killmark.

and press APPLY button. appear hint “pasted”, mean killmark have been placed.
so here is my killmark

29 kills total(air+ground) - two 10 marks and 9 marks

after score saved, total score has removed(beware : not remove each score)
when press the save button without total score, you can see error message like “SAVE FAILED : NO SCORE”
I-TGT

I-TGT(Integrated-TarGeTing system) is provide the precise ground-attack capabilities for aircrafts. support

GPS/INS, Dual mode, Map Click and 8/10 digits coordinates.

I-TGT panel Description

1. DGN(Designation) : (map click only) save the location coordinate from map click, and send to the memory slot.

default slot is no.1, 5 slots provided.

2. SEL(Select) : (map click / digits) get the data from memory slot, send to FCS. want to using GPS weapon, must

press it.(see the example)

3. CLR(Clear) : (map click / digits) remove the target data in FCS. if you want select another location, must press

it.

4. DEL(Delete) : (map click / digits) delete the location coordinate from memory slot.

5. MODE : change GPS guide mode. There is two mode, GPS only and Dual mode. GPS only is only using GPS

signal when guiding GPS bomb even support the dual mode. Dual mode is using terminal guidance for “dual-

mode supported” bombs.

6. SLOT(up and down) : change memory slot 1 to 5

7. digits box : grey input box. input the digits coordinate in here.

8. memory slot : black combo. select the memory 1 to 5.

9. ENT(Enter) : (digits only) save the location coordinate from digits box. same function with DGN but only

different is doesn’t click the map.


10. 8(8 digits) : select the 8 digits mode.

11. 10(10 digits) : select the 10 digits mode.

Example : How to use the I-TGT

1. GPS/INS

for example, destroy the radar installation with using I-TGT.

click the open I-TGT System


press the DGN, and click on the map you want.

TGT POS 1 have been placed. so, memory slot 1 have tgt pos 1 location data. if you select other memory slot, will

save to other slot.


press the SEL button. if appear the blue attack marker(mean GPS data), its mean your aircraft FCS have the data,

and ready to drop.

GBU-38(500lbs GPS/INS guided bomb) is on the way


Bingo!

remove the data from FCS, press the CLR button. so no data in FCS, can’t use the GPS Bomb.
press the DEL button for delete the location in memory slot. TGT POS 1 deleted.

2. Dual mode
Some bombs, like GBU-54 LJDAM and EGBU-12 Enhanced Paveway II are support Dual-mode. it’s mean bomb

will using separate guidance during drop, like GPS guide for mid-course, Laser guide for terminal guidance.

Open the I-TGT and press MODE for change GPS mode.
Make sure mode display is “DUAL” in screen, and just doing like GPS bomb drop sequence(DGN->SEL->DROP)

And during drop, turn on the laser and marking on any location or target. If laser target in specific scan area,

dual mode bomb will tracking specific target, not GPS signal. If you can see dual mode activated message in

screen, it’s mean working well.


Waypoint is actually hit area with dual mode, and you can see bomb doesn’t hit the TGT POS 1.

If no specific target in scan area, system will display the message “target not found” and bomb will keep

following GPS signal.

3. Visual Targeting(LASER MARKER)


after virtual targeting pod upgrade, pilotcamera can use the laser marker.

already my Aircrafts support the pilot camera with laser marker. however, some aircrafts need to equip the

targeting pod for visual targeting.

this section make you understand how to use the laser marker for ground attack.
this screen is pilotcamera.

Left Ctrl + RMB is open the Pilotcamera

Left Ctrl + T is lock the camera on the Area,Object.

select the laser marker, and press fire key for use laser designator.

if laser is enable, you can see laser icon(red laser) on the screen.
lock on the target, check the fully lock on and drop the bomb(this photo is after the drop so lock on is disable)

Hit.

4. Digits coordinates for GPS


for advanced user or Multiplayer gaming-specially with the JTAC, I-TGT support the digits coordinates system,

mean input the 8/10 digits from map grid.

little difficult, but make more realistic than map-click and give some little job for JTAC.
we want to drop the bomb on LZ Conner with digits. however, arma3 support 6 digits only. so need to convert

to 8/10. but not a difficult!

just simple : 6 digits is 100m, 8 digits is 10m, 10 digits is 1m.

LZ conner grid is 029018. mean x : 2900 / y : 1800, 2km 900m and 1km 800m.

with 6 grids, possible the make error for precise attack because 6 grid is 100m. we need to change to 8

digits(10m)

x is left is 0 to the right, y is bottom is 0 to the top. and draw the line on the map like below(just imagine!)
all coordinate is always vertext from left/bottom like below.

so, we get the 8 digits coordinates, 02980187

and open the I-TGT.


input the coordinates in grey input box, and press the ENT button. default is 8 digits, so if you got 10 digits, must

press 10 button for switching 10 digits.

press SEL button for select the target location.


after bomb release, JDAM hit on the LZ conner.

SEAD

SEAD is a key to Air Operation against Enemy Anti-Air.

After Jet DLC update, AGM-88 and Kh-25MPU Require for Passive radar aircraft sensor.

It is very simple, tracking enemy active radar signal, lock on and pull the trigger.

EWS
EWS, Electronic Warfare System is the new feature since EA-18G Growler Update. As Electronic Warfare Aircraft,

EWS is provided the various solution for jamming and protect the allies.
first, press "EWS OPEN" action in action menu.

EWS menu is similar with I-TGT but has different buttons.

1. HI-RIS: HIgh-risk Radar Interrupt System. create the radar decoys on your position. that's why "High-Risk"
because you'll need to close the hornet's nest for this system. however, this system is longer operation times,
shorter cool times than another system, called LO-RIS.
click the HI-RIS button to execute HI-RIS.

basic operation time: 60 seconds + 30sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G).
basic cool time: 60 seconds - 10sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G).
maximum operation time: 210 seconds
minimum cool time: 10 seconds

2. LO-RIS: Low-risk Radar Interrupt System. Create the radar decoys on your “map clicked” position like I-TGT click.
So more safe than HI-RIS(because you don’t need close to enemy position). But this system is shorter operation
times, longer cool times than another system, called HI-RIS. And limitation of maximum range(your position to
clicked position) is 10km.
click the LO-RIS button to execute LO-RIS.

Basic operation time: 40 seconds + 10sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G)
basic cool time: 100 seconds – 5sec per ALQ-99 pod(max 5 for EA-18G)
maximum operation time: 90 seconds
minimum cool time: 75 seconds

3. S-J: Sensor-Jammer is jamming the enemy active radar sensor when they in jamming range.
when jamming, enemy will not using active radar for scanning, targeting, and can’t use ARH missile during
jamming. However, it doesn’t mean you are perfectly safe because they still have several sensors like IR/Visual.

4, 5. ESM ON/OFF
ESM, Electronic Support Measures is protect the allies from ARH(active radar homing) missile attack in range.
when you click the button, ESM automatically checks the allies in range. this system running consistently until the
turn-off, crashed.

6. Increase/Decrease Range
increase/decrease the range for HI-RIS and LO-RIS.
minimum range: 1km
maximum range : 10km

7. Increase/Decrease Altitude
increase/decrease the altitude for HI-RIS and LO-RIS.
minimum altitude: 500m
maximum altitude: 10km

8. decoys combo menu


select the radar decoys for HI/LO-RIS. F-16 and F/A-18F for initial system, will be more to add.

9. Status texts
you can see current decoy type, altitude and range for HI/LO-RIS.

10. Exit button : are you sure want to know how to this button working?

IMPORTANT: don’t be carelessness during combat even EWS working. Stay sharp always!

Air to Air Missile

Name : AIM-9L/M Sidewinder

Type : Short-Range Air to Air Missile

Guidance : IR

Range(in config value) : min 10 / max 5000m

Description : The subsequent AIM-9M ("Mike") has the all-aspect capability of the L model while providing all-

around higher performance. The M model has improved capability against infrared countermeasures, enhanced

background discrimination capability, and a reduced-smoke rocket motor. These modifications increase its ability

to locate and lock-on to a target and decrease the chance of missile detection. Deliveries of the initial AIM-9M-1

began in 1982.
Name : AIM-9X Sidewinder

Type : Short-Range Air to Air Missile

Guidance : IR

Range(in config value) : min 10 / max 5000m

Description : The AIM-9X Sidewinder, developed by Raytheon engineers, entered service in November 2003 with

the USAF (lead platform is the F-15C; the USN lead platform is the F/A-18C) and is a substantial upgrade to the

Sidewinder family featuring an imaging infrared focal-plane array (FPA) seeker with claimed 90° off-boresight

capability, compatibility with helmet-mounted displays such as the new U.S. Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing

System, and a totally new three-dimensional thrust-vectoring control (TVC) system providing increased turn

capability over traditional control surfaces. Utilizing the JHMCS, a pilot can point the AIM-9X missile's seeker and

"lock on" by simply looking at a target, thereby increasing air combat effectiveness. It retains the same rocket

motor, fuze and warhead of the 9-"Mike", but its lower drag gives it improved range and speed.

Mk 82 Snakeye - high-drag "Snakeye" tailfins used for low-altitude release.


Name : Mk 84

Type : 2000lb General Purpose Bomb

Guide Type : Unguided

Description : The Mark 84 or BLU-117 is an American general-purpose bomb, it is also the largest of the Mark 80

series of weapons. Entering service during the Vietnam War, it became a commonly used US heavy unguided

bomb (due to the amount of high-explosive content packed inside) to be dropped.

The Mark 84 has a nominal weight of 2,000 lb (907.2 kg), but its actual weight varies depending on its fin, fuze

options, and retardation configuration, from 1,972 to 2,083 lb (894.5 to 944.8 kg). It is a streamlined steel

casing filled with 945 lb (428.6 kg) of Tritonal high explosive.

The Mark 84 is capable of forming a crater 50 feet (15.2 m) wide and 36 ft (11.0 m) deep. It can penetrate up to

15 inches (381.0 mm) of metal or 11 ft (3.4 m) of concrete, depending on the height from which it is dropped,

and causes lethal fragmentation to a radius of 400 yards (365.8 m).

Name : GBU-10 Paveway II

Type : 2000lb Guided bomb


Guide Type : Laser-Guided

Description : American Paveway-series laser-guided bomb, based on the Mk 84 general-purpose bomb, but with

laser seeker and wings for guidance. Introduced into service c. 1976. Used by USAF, US Navy, US Marine Corps,

Royal Australian Air Force and various NATO air forces.

The GBU-10 has been built in more than a half-dozen variants with different wing and fuse combinations.

Weight depends on the specific configuration, ranging from 2,055 lb (934 kg) to 2,103 lb (956 kg).

Laser-guided bombs are often labeled as "smart bombs", despite requiring external input in the form of laser

designation of the intended target. According to Raytheon's fact sheet for the Paveway 2, 99 deliveries of guided

munitions will yield a circular error probable (CEP) of only 3.6 feet (1.1 m), compared to a CEP of 310 feet (94 m)

for 99 unguided bombs dropped under similar conditions.

Name : GBU-12 Paveway II

Type : 500lb Guided Bomb

Guide Type : Laser-Guided

Description : The GBU-12 Paveway II is an American aerial laser-guided bomb, based on the Mk 82 500-pound

general-purpose bomb, but with the addition of a nose-mounted laser seeker and fins for guidance. A member

of the Paveway series of weapons, Paveway II entered into service c. 1976. It is currently in service with the Royal

Australian Air Force, Royal Saudi Air Force, U.S. Air Force, US Navy, US Marine Corps, Royal Canadian Air Force,

Colombian Air Force, Swedish Air Force, and various NATO air forces.

Laser-guided bombs are often labeled "smart bombs" because they are able to follow a non-ballistic trajectory

when laser designation of the intended target is undertaken. According to Raytheon's fact sheet for the Paveway

2, 99 deliveries of guided munitions will yield a circular error probable (CEP) of only 3.6 feet, versus a CEP of 310

feet for 99 unguided bombs dropped under similar conditions.


Name : GBU-24 Paveway III

Type : 2000lb Guided Bomb

Guide Type : Laser-Guided

Description : GBU-24 Paveway III or simply GBU-24 is a family of laser-guided bombs, a sub-group of the larger

Raytheon Paveway III family of weapons. The Paveway guidance package consists of a seeker package attached

to the nose of the weapon, and a wing kit attached to the rear to provide stability and greater range.

Warhead options consist of:

Mk. 84 – 910 kilograms (2,000 lb) General Purpose

BLU-109 – 910 kilograms (2,000 lb) Penetrator

BLU-116 – Advanced Unitary Penetrator

CPE-800 – Used in the BPG-2000, a similar, indigenous Spanish weapon

Compared to the GBU-10 family, or the Paveway II family, the GBU-24 glides farther as a result of more efficient

guidance technology. The Paveway III guidance kit is more expensive, however, making the GBU-24 suitable

against well-defended, high-value targets. It was introduced into service c. 1983. This weapon is in service with

the USAF, US Navy, US Marine Corps, and various NATO air forces.
Name : GCS-1

JASDF, using Mk 82 500lb bomb.


Name : GBU-31/32/38 JDAM

Type : Guided-Bomb

Guide Type : GPS/INS

Description : The Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) is a guidance kit that converts unguided bombs, or "dumb

bombs", into all-weather "smart" munitions. JDAM-equipped bombs are guided by an integrated inertial

guidance system coupled to a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver, giving them a published range of up to

15 nautical miles (28 km). JDAM-equipped bombs range from 500 pounds (227 kg) to 2,000 pounds (907 kg).

When installed on a bomb, the JDAM kit is given a GBU (Guided Bomb Unit) nomenclature, superseding the

Mark 80 or BLU (Bomb, Live Unit) nomenclature of the bomb to which it is attached.

The JDAM is not a stand-alone weapon; rather it is a "bolt-on" guidance package that converts unguided gravity

bombs into Precision-Guided Munitions, or PGMs. The key components of the system consist of a tail section

with aerodynamic control surfaces, a (body) strake kit, and a combined inertial guidance system and GPS

guidance control unit.

The JDAM was meant to improve upon laser-guided bomb and imaging infrared technology, which can be

hindered by bad ground and weather conditions. Laser seekers are now being fitted to some JDAMs.

Name : CBU-87 CEM / CBU-89 GATOR / CBU-97 SFW / CBU-103 WCMD

Type : Cluster Bomb

Guide Type : Unguided(87,89,97) , GPS/INS(103)

Description : The CBU-87 Combined Effects Munition is a cluster bomb used by the United States Air Force,

developed by Aerojet General/Honeywell and introduced in 1986 to replace the earlier cluster bombs used in the

Vietnam War. CBU stands for Cluster Bomb Unit. When the CBU-87 is used in conjunction with the Wind

Corrected Munitions Dispenser guidance tail kit, it becomes a precision-guided weapon, and is designated CBU-

103. Each CBU-87 consists of an SUU-65B canister, a fuze with 12 time delay options and 202 submunitions (or

bomblets) designated BLU-97/B Combined Effects Bomb. Each bomblet is a yellow cylinder with a length of 20

centimeters and a diameter of 6 centimeters. The BLU-97/B bomblets are designed to be used against armour,

personnel and softskin targets and consist of a shaped charge, a scored steel fragmentation case and a zirconium

ring for incendiary effects. The CBU-87 can also be equipped with an optional FZU-39/B proximity sensor with 10

altitude selections.

The GATOR mine system is a US system of air-dropped anti-tank and anti-personnel mines developed in the

1980s to be compatible with existing cluster dispensers. It is used with two dispenser systems—the Navy 230 kg

(500 lb) CBU-78/B and the Air Force 450 kg (1,000 lb) CBU-89/B.

The Air Force CBU-89/B is a 450-kilogram (1,000 lb) cluster munition containing 72 antitank and 22

antipersonnel mines, consists of an SUU-64 Tactical Munitions Dispenser with an optional FZU-39 proximity

sensor. The TMD is the same general configuration used for the CBU-87/B Combined Effects Munition. This

commonality allows for high-rate, low-cost production of the dispenser.

The CBU-97 Sensor Fuzed Weapon is a United States Air Force 1,000-pound (450 kg)-class non-guided (freefall)
Cluster Bomb Unit (CBU). It was developed and produced by Textron Defense Systems. The CBU-97 in

conjunction with the Wind Corrected Munitions Dispenser guidance tail kit, which converts it to a precision-

guided weapon, is designated CBU-105.

The CBU-97 consists of an SUU-66/B tactical munition dispenser that contains 10 BLU-108 submunitions. Each

submunition contains four hockey-puck-shaped sensor-fused projectiles called Skeets. These detect target

vehicles, such as tanks, armored personnel carriers, trucks and other support vehicles, and fire a kinetic energy

penetrator downwards at them.

Name : GBU-39 SDB

Type : 250lb Guided-Bomb

Guide Type : GPS/INS

Description : The GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) is a 250 lb (110 kg) precision-guided glide bomb that is

intended to provide aircraft with the ability to carry a higher number of more accurate bombs. Most US Air Force

aircraft will be able to carry (using the BRU-61/A rack) a pack of four SDBs in place of a single 2,000 lb (907 kg)

bomb.
Name : GBU-53 SDB II

Type : 250lb Guided-Bomb

Guide Type : GPS/INS + IIR + Semi-Active Laser + Millimeter wave Active Radar

Description : The GBU-53/B Small Diameter Bomb II is an American air-launched, precision-guided glide bomb.

Development was started in 2006 for a 250 pounds (113 kg) class bomb that can identify and strike mobile

targets from standoff distances in all weather conditions. It will be integrated on the F-15E and F-35 fighters.

The bomb uses GPS/INS system to guide itself into the general vicinity of a moving target during the initial search

phase, with any necessary course correction updates provided using a Link 16 or UHF data link. The bomb has

three modes of target acquisition: millimeter-wave radar, Infrared homing based on uncooled imaging infrared,

and semi-active laser. The weapon is capable of fusing the information from the sensors to classify the target and

can prioritize certain types of targets as desired when used in semi-autonomous mode.

The shaped charge warhead in the bomb has both blast and fragmentation effects, which makes it effective

against infantry, armor (including MBTs), unhardened structures and buildings, as well as patrol craft sized boats

and other soft targets. The bomb would be the first purpose-built no-drive zone enforcement weapon.
Name : AGM-154A/A-1 JSOW

Type : Glide Bomb

Guide Type : GPS/INS

Description : The AGM-154 Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) is the product of a joint venture between the United

States Navy and Air Force to deploy a standardized medium range precision guided weapon, especially for

engagement of defended targets from outside the range of standard anti-aircraft defenses, thereby increasing

aircraft survivability and minimizing friendly losses.

addition, the AGM-154A-1 configuration is under development by Raytheon for FMS sales. This version replaces

the submunition payload of the AGM-154A with a BLU-111 warhead to enhance blast-fragmentation effects

without the unexploded ordnance (UXO) concerns with the BLU-97/B payload.

Name : Durandal

Type : Anti-Runway Bomb

Guide Type : Unguided

Description : Named for a mythical medieval French sword, the Durandal is an anti-runway penetration bomb

developed by the French company Matra (now MBDA), designed to destroy airport and airfield runways and

exported to a number of countries worldwide. As a simple crater in a runway could be just filled in, the Durandal

deliberately utilizes two explosions in order to displace the concrete slabs of a runway, damage that is far harder

to repair.
Name : KAB-250

Type : Guided bomb

Guide Type : Laser(L)

Description : The KAB-250L is a laser semi-active homing 250 kg guided bomb. It is the smallest laser guided

bomb manufacturerd by Russian industry.

The weapon uses the Azov 27N or later 27N1 semi-active laser homing seeker using an annular airfoil and optical

design similar to the Paveway I/II series. It will provide similar characteristics to the baseline Paveway I/II seeker.

The cited CEP is 3 to 10 metres which is consistent with this size of bomb, style of seeker and the bang-bang

control loop technology involved.


Name : KAB-500

Type : Guided bomb

Guide Type : Laser(L)/ Satellite guidance(S-E) / EO TV guide(Kr)

Description : The KAB-500L is a laser-guided bomb developed by the Soviet Air Force. It remains in service with

the CIS and post-Soviet Russian Air Force.

The KAB-500L is analogous to the U.S. Paveway series: it is a standard FAB-500 general-purpose bomb, which

has a nominal weight of 500 kg (1,100 lb), fitted with a semi-active laser seeker and guidance fins, turning it into

an unpowered guided bomb.

KAB-500S-E is a Precision-Guided Munition (PGM) whose guidance system is based on GLONASS. The weapon

can be dropped from aircraft flying at an altitude from 500 meters to 5000 meters and with an airspeed of 500–

1150 km/h. The CEP is 7–12 meters. These bombs were used for the first time in the Russian military intervention

in the Syrian Civil War in September 2015.

The KAB-500Kr series are Electro-Optical guided bombs. The seeker employs a gimballed daylight television

imaging sensor under a wide angle glass dome. Unlike the earlier US GBU-8 HOBOS and AGM-65 Maverick

which employed contrast lock technology, the -Kr series guidance system employs Scene Matching Area

Correlation technology more akin to the US Navy DAMASK seeker or Tomahawk DSMAC. This results in the

ability to attack low contrast targets by exploiting the contrast of nearby terrain features or objects. IOC was

achieved in 1984.
