J-7G with guided bombs(?
I was searching about the J-6 when I came across this image of a J-7G with a mounted laser guided bomb I know the 7G was already suggested but I didn’t see anything about guided bombs, is it real?
It doesn’t look like it has any control surfaces for guidance, it’s probably just a fuse of some kind, perhaps a cluster bomb.

I believe this Mk.82 bomb is using the airburst FMU-56 fuze
Only Bangladeshi F-7BG/BGI and Pakistani F-7PG(GBU-16 was tested once but sadly it didn’t become a part of its final loadout) uses guided bombs, however F-7PG isn’t a J-7G variant. Its based on F-7MG.
Bangladeshi ones use LS-6 and Teber guidance kit Mk.81/82 bombs.
This is a J-7 not Q-5 I think
A new possibility of Chinese top CAS ability. LS-6 with IIR seeker and Turbo motor in triplet pylon
should be able to give J-10 and J-11 6+ * FNF

Perhaps make a report for it and post the link here.
Chinese top tier CAS feels quite underwhelming at the moment …
Some slides on Chinese guidance system accuracy, probably doesn’t really matter in this game but it’s still interesting.

What mechanical deployment mechanisms are typically used for wing extension on Chinese guided bomb designs, and how do they operate?
Kind of hard to say with that sort of quality. Do u have the source for this I might have a look myself for it.

Unfortunately I lost the source video.
Seems like Bangladesh military released. I’ll have a look anyway, quite interesting although I suspect it could be some sort of a pod as well.
should be BLU-107 bomb
Isn’t durandal supposed to be green colored? Both Type 200A and Matra Durandal is painted green.
Maybe training varian without live warhead.

But also it lacks almost any feature of the Durandal, white, smooth, can’t visibly make out fins.

Hi friends,
It seems like there are several variants of the GB250 (GB3) guided bomb, and each version seems to have different appearances, guidance methods, etc., especially the two different versions of GB250.

If anyone could help me understand the different variants and ensure that the in-game variants are correctly modeled, that would be greatly appreciated!

Not a guided bomb can send it?This is China’s latest giant bomb, which should weigh no less than 5 tons.。
Btw does anyone have any information on dropspeeds for chinese laser bombs? They all have been struck with the mach 1.0 limit while paveway4 and hammer can be dropped supersonic
