If a paveway embedding itself into the roof a tank doesn’t kill it, I doubt a JDAM airburst would either.
Are JDAMs even designed to destroy tanks?
It’s a modular kit so depends on the warhead, and since they fit most bodies that use the Mk.8x form factor, options exist for; GPHE, SAP, AP, FAE(BLU-118), OR(obstacle reduction), RCDM (reduced collateral damage munition), Mine(Quicksink & Destructor) & AShM / Torpedo and Submunition deployment.
So there are a number of options, considering SALH nose fuses do exist that can provide terminal guidance, and could probably be combined with the existing -ER & -P type kits for extended range. There is also the potential for the Quicksink(likely IIR) or Anti-Rad Seeker kits to supplant them as well.
In fact it’s interesting that LJDAMs are already implemented, just not on US aircraft for whatever reason.

It happens to M48s as well, seems like those massive round wielded turrets do quite a lot. I’ve bombed M48 with 2000lb and have a hit as well. 500lb is actually possible cause the server does weird stuff so it doesn’t actually hit properly.
Me when my kh38 only takes out the barrel and tracks of a leo2a6
If you’re not killing someone with KH-38, even if it’s a game bug - we’ll be considering it being a skill issue

It should still kill as well, 152kg explosive, plenty to kill leopard anywhere. IDK why so many people conclude everything as skill issue.
Yeah it is supposed to kill but this is game mechanic, not me making it up. Happens a lot with kh29, agm-65G and even with hammers
