16th ACCW

Probably Sunday Coolio.
I haven't been able to kill one yet but I can evade their first shot at nearly 100% now. Once I get inside of 10nm they volley 4+ missiles at me and I haven't been able to evade them without dropping stores.

I now have ITO installed as well..

May try to meet up with you guys on Sunday.

Excellent. Let's try and get one up on Sunday then. See you then fellas :-)

Do you guys want to try to get this up at 0900 or 1900 CST?
I'm in a bowling tournament at 1300 CST so I wont be available mid-day.

I can only make it for the 0900 one. 1900 is too late for me.

I take it this will be tomorrow right?

Yes, tomorrow. I'll be here for 0900 then.

Sorry Cyborg. Something came up and I couldn't make it.

We did fly Sunday morning.. we carried "Spice Bombs" but when we reached the target we figured out that we did not know how to drop them.. Duh!

Oh well, we will be better prepared next time.

Not sure I've dropped spice bombs. Those glide bombs (GBU38s?) might be a good way to kill SA17s. Good stand off. I'm not sure of the inventory of the Israel theatre though. They are just like dropping JDAMs. Piece of cake.

They are similar to GBU's Coolio but they have to be programmed with target points. Precision steerpoints and radar locks will not guide the bombs. From what I understand, there is no communication between the bomb and the avionics in the jet. The only thing you can do is set the target number on the bomb then it's tied to that target and that target only.
