Approaching the Target

Your Position

Waypoint B1

Waypoint B2

Waypoint B3

Target Point M3

Pop-Up Point U3

Located 10 km North-East of M3 following a

heading of 250 (from target’s 2 o’clock)

Kobuleti Airport

Runway Heading: 250

In the following rocket attack tutorial, we will use the following approach:

•First segment:We will follow waypoints B1 and B2 by maintaining a radar altitude of 50 m AGL

(Above Ground Level)

•Second segment: Using a pop-up point is by no means mandatory, but since we know the

targets are lined up parallel to the runway heading, we can use the Pop-Up Point U3 (generated

in relationship from Target Point M3) to approach the target from an optimal direction.

•Third segment: Fly from the Pop-Up Point U3 towards the Target Point M3 at the required

safety altitude, then perform attack.
