Probably not tho

Where is the GBU-28, GBU-54 LJDAM and the EGBU?

For what you need this?

It doesn’t work now.

Cause i want them. Idc that it’s a bunker buster. I want it.

I want napalm on the F-15E so much.

The F-15E has so much stuff that’s missing

JSOW on F-15E is real. I will wait for JSOW in game to make report.

Recently or is it the old test photo?

Nice

So something that probably should be on the F-15E, or frankly any US plane using the GBU-12/16.

“LongShot is compatible with all 1760 and non-1760 equipped fighter and bomber
aircraft. No aircraft modification is required to deploy a LongShot equipped munition. In
flight targeting is done with a knee pad device that plugs into the cockpit intercom,
allowing the pilot to establish two-way communication with wing stores via the aircraft
UHF radio. This allows any combat aircraft without a 1760 smart weapons interface to
have immediate, long standoff, precision strike capability.”

There has been a wing kit for the GBU-12/16 this entire time…

Can even fit onto rails that JDAMs cant to boot, any rail that can carry the bomb to begin with can carry the Longshot.

Gaijin where Longshot bombs for US aircraft?

Yeah hopefully. I am currently trying to gather some information to make that report though. I already made one for the LITENING pod’s air to air mode which I’d imagine should be similar to how it would work on SNIPER but I just need to find something proving that.

What I have currently

0:35 and 1:16 show SNIPER tracking a target aircraft but we don’t really get an idea how it works.

0:47 again shows SNIPER tracking an air target but doesn’t show how it can detect them.

0:59 has a pilot talking about the advantage SNIPER gives them in air to air combat.

Basically there’s plenty that says it has an air to air mode but nothing describing how it actually works, unless you or anyone happens to have something showing just that then it would be greatly appreciated. (So long as it ain’t classified or restricted).

I will send you in DM tommorow some info.

Awesome

Spoiler

i know this isn’t a source but i just think it might be interesting to see how DCS sniper A2A works like IRST at 14:40 https://youtu.be/6kJSN_uv810?si=XGDuFku6Lj-YXIPL

how can i perform better in the F-15A?

it feels pretty bad imo with all the supersonic fox 3 carriers and F-2 at same BR with AESA

ive also noticed my AIM-7 just not working in good shots (within 8km, target approaching)

I really want to be able to enjoy the F-15A

It is just really bad at the br

i really do like its energy retention and speed, but i find that its just really easy to die at the BR and sparrows will sometimes be pretty ineffective
