bpstalker -> GBU-32 JDAM speed issue (4/20/2017 10:06:05 AM)

JDAM's have an issue under the current build. Their ground speed is heavily dropping after release (down to 1 kts before impact) while the TAS stays at 530 kts. So the Korean MIG-23s can easily kill them with their APEXs, Archers or guns in the Korean missile crisis scenario.

By the way is it realistic to shoot down bombs with IR missiles? (what heat the sensor can lock on?)

1. The gradual reduction of ground speed is realistic (pitch-down attitude).

2. Can you post a pre-engagement save of the above? Thanks.

3. Modern IR seekers can home on even relatively cool surfaces, they don't need a blazing exhaust/afterburner trail like the older ones. What _is_ strange is that a small warhead should have a reduced ability to deflect a guided bomb weapon. Again a save would help.

Thanks.

Thanks Sunburn. My comments below

GBU-12s don't slow down. They keep their horizontal speed till impact. Is this only applies to GBU-32 JDAM?

Added both Missile crisis and a test scenario. In Korean missile crisis, I have a save where the weapons are just released against IWON AB (N40°11'01" E128°50'34") In this game the Mig23's were able to circle around the bombs and reattack

Ok I didn't knew that. Thanks for explanation

Thanks.

Thanks, logged and it will be investigated.
