Ever since the A-6E got removed I believe about a year ago now, I have been waiting. Many US holidays related to the country and/or military have passed such as 4th of July, Memorial Day, the US Navy’s birthday just 2 weeks ago, the US naval aviation anniversary, US Marine Corps aviation anniversary and so on and it still has not come back. It’s the only plane to have the AGM-123 Skipper and it sucks it’s been locked away now for almost a year.
Dont worry,you aint missing out on anything atm. Skippers and GBU-12 and basically every GBU with track rate of 8k i believe are bugged and dont track laser.

I believe they fixed that, was working fine for me earlier
I dont think so anymore ive had GBU12 working recently (not killing tanks on direct hits of course but still hitting)
They didn’t fix anything. I bought the AMX today, forgetting to check whether its LGBs were broken — and guess what, they are. And it doesn’t have any other guided weapons at all.
And yes, these bombs can work correctly if dropped in a dive from short range. The problem appears when the bomb, while in the air, acquires the laser spot with its sensor.
