TSe419E Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I took the STRV 122 to the range last night to prepare for the mission today and had a couple of instances where the LRF acted oddly. At the fourth or fifth engagement I would lase the target and the range would flash on the numeric display and then immediately switch to the battle-sight range. After that I would be unable to get a proper lase with the range stuck at battle sight. I talked to another player today and he said he had the same issue with this tank on the tank range, as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you remember that STRV and 2E have this feature where it is possible to zoom out to low magnifigation on daysight. And that if you do.. then lazer doesn't work. And that lazer only works when daysight channel is on high magnification? Was that the problem? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, like I said, it flashed a new range before going back to battle sight and getting stuck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After more investigation I was able to recreate the problem. Lumi was correct. If the day sight is set to wide angle, ie less magnification, and you switch to the thermal view to engage a target it will reset the range to battle sight when you lase even if you are in the higher magnification view of the thermal. I don't know if this is supposed to happen that way but at least it is known now that is how it is operating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ssnake Posted March 13, 2023 Members Share Posted March 13, 2023 The laser uses the optical channel, and is therefore properly focused only in narrow field of view. If unfocused, no laser echo will be registered, hence the fire control system falls back to battlesight range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
