New to SF2- optical munitions

Man it's been a looong time since I dropped JDAM but... usually a "Square" (which if my mind serves me right) which is about 5 miles.  Accuracy at the latest patch is always iffy, Usually I drop in Afghanistan and get near 100% hits though, but tha's around 24,000 or therabouts feet.  I'll have to figure out what height as usually it;s by feel rather than always specific parameters, and so on. But usually keep within a "Square" of the target and your hit ration should get much better, and high altitude though in some cases medium altitude works too. DCS is different with the A-10C of course since it's a no brainer in employment.  JDAM bombing in SF2 is more practice than anything concrete to get the bomb to hit.

Thanks again, Eric.  I'll stick to LGB until I can get the "feel" of the JDAM's.

Cool.... realistically they're not hard to do.  Also if you haven't already, download the SF2 Bombing Range, which is a threat free (unless you tweak it) place to practice weapon delivery, etc.
