If BOMB (Figure 15) is selected, ensure that
the bomb quantity reflects the simulated
weapons load. If a manual delivery is planned,
the mil setting may need to be changed for the
planned dive angle and release altitude. On
start, the system default mil setting is 12 for
guns, 30 for rockets and 140 for bombs. The
mil setting is changed by pressing the SET
DEP + to increase or SET DEP - to decrease
the mil setting on the DEP (Figure 16) for the
selected weapon.
If CCIP is the planned delivery mode, select
CCIP on the stores display. The target height
does not need to be set (Figure 17). The
entered target height is only retained as long as
the waypoint doesn't change. As soon as a
new waypoint is selected, manually or automati-
cally, the target height reverts to the waypoint
elevation. In addition, the system uses the
radar altimeter for AGL altitude for CCIP

computations. Target height is only used If the
CCIP BOMB
radar altimeter is off or inoperative.
When the desired weapon, mil setting, and delivery mode are entered, return to the ADI and HSI
display on the MFDs and the navigation mode on the HUD. Because it is difficult to achieve a
consistent dive angle and determine a correct release altitude during a pop-up attack on targets of
opportunity, the CCIP delivery mode is more accurate.
