ATO update patch...

[DrDetroit]

I'm pretty sure there was a patch for ODS that allowed for an increase in F-16 tasking...I've looked but can't find it.

Could someone point me in the proper direction.

Good day.

Just click on the link that is below. I must warn you that this patch alters some other things as well. The AIM-120B will be replaced with the AIM-7M and you can only fire that missile in Realistic Avionics ONLY.
Furthermore there will be no GBUs like GBU-10 and all the other laser guided bombs that the F-16 can carry.So if you still want to download it here it is.
Click on the link below and the file will be dowloaded.

Thanks for the patch Butcher_ss. Why is it that the weapon selection has changed with this bug fix? Is it that these were not used back in the day?

Thanks again...

Yeah. The F-16 could not carry GBUs during the Gulf War and no aeroplane could carry the AIM-120 until after the Gulf. So the patch removed the laser-guided bombs and the AIM-120 and added the AIM-7 in its place. Have you understood what I meant that the AIM-7 can only be fired in Realistic Avionics setting? There is a special mode for the AIM-7 called STT (Single Target Track I think) that only exists in the Realistic Avionics setting.

Actually, the AIM-7 should not be carried by the F-16 (at least not in ODS). They were limited to AIM-9 only at that time.

Yeah I know, they only carried the AIM-9 at that time. The AIM-7 I think were only carried by some F-16A but not F-16C that were used during the Gulf War.
