At least a 1000lb still has a decent blast radius. You need to move like what, 50-150m to be safe from a 250lb bomb?

You press W for like 2-3 seconds and boom there goes GBU-39.

Notching put simply, is forcing yourself horizontal to the enemies radar thats locking you or firing a missle at you so as to break the lock and look like the ground instead of an abnormality

Because it’s actually nimble, or it can’t actually carry much (which is wrong)?

1000lbs for a ccrp is best but gps is pin point, so as long as they dont move its fine. Basically, u lock them up, then you hit the deck and use ccrp to lob it up without pocking up for them to shoot you. Gives them no warning as they wouldnt have seen you drop it and means they wont be looking out for it. Best idea is to chuck one then get another from another direction as most of the time if they do doge it theyll return back to where they were as thats the spot they want.

ah ok, thanks

brain cell is pudding from trying to understand what people are saying

They has a bit worse explosive than your usual 250lb bomb. It’s 16kg of AFX, which is around 29kg TNT equivalent. I am a little bit hoping we get the GBU-39B/Bs which are SALH, but that might also just be a bit too much, just gotta hope SPAA doesn’t move an inch.

It will be pretty good for farming ground units in air/sim though.

Another way to look like the ground is to crash into it. No missile will get you then. It is not recommended though.

If it’s anything like last year this update will drop right before the event starts to maybe

But I don’t see it going to the TT

Ah, ok. That’s just what I’ve heard/seen going around

can super hind mk4 use Mokopa? Shouldn’t they have been used by mk5?

you will still see the same SAMs, you can also face enemies with amraams and other fox 3 on a much slower platform, the damage is likely better as it will also get the same spall buff that the hellfires got as it is a 180 mm warhead, not to mention that you have that you have worse optics and no thermals
