STRAFING SWITCHOLOGY
1.
Set the weapons selector to GUN A/G.
2.
Check for correct Mil setting.
3.
Select the gun select switch.
4.
After roll-in, and after the aircraft in front of you has called "Off" and cleared your line of sight, place
the master armament switch to ARM.
5.
To simulate firing, depress the trigger on the front of the stick grip. A release tone will come through
your ICS and an indicator will appear to the side of your HUD display. (You can hear the tone, but
you will not see the indicator.) Be sure to release the trigger at the correct cease-fire altitude.
6.
Upon recovery from each run, turn the master armament switch to SAFE. For succeeding runs,
operate only the master armament switch. After the last run, set the master armament switch to
SAFE, the weapons selector to OFF, and verify that the gun select switch is deselected (in the "out"
position and unlit).
