charlielima 328 Posted June 10, 2006 Kinda sad a navy det flying off the beech has to barrow a plane from the mens department to do thier job. I bet the mechs are retaleating for no pork roast for thursday night chow. Welcome aboard Leeman. :ph34r: VR, CL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leeman 0 Posted June 11, 2006 Nice pic, charlielima! Looks like you like to drop your ordinance low, loaded with snakeyes! I like to come in low too. On that particular mission though, I was tasked with bombing a runway. I like to come in lined up with the runway, nice and low, then I start to climb as I near the target and "toss" or "loft" the bombs at the target. Love that technique. I don't know if it's a legitimate tactic or not but at least it keeps me from having to fly directly over my target. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firehawkordy 34 Posted June 13, 2006 (edited) "Toss Bombing" is a skill that is going the way of the Tomcat and Intruder as the JDAM and JSOW are used more and more. It was used more to throw a nuke at some one, but heaving two MER's worth of MK82 on Mr Victor Charles' head is better that getting you a** shot off. Oh yeah, please don't mention loading that many MK82's again, it make me twitch. Edited June 13, 2006 by firehawkordy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlielima 328 Posted June 13, 2006 Half the time I can only hit anything with snakeyes. I only load this many for the picture. My thot is this could only be reasonable to prepare a stretch of jungle for a new freeway. With fuse extenders maybe we could LAPES the Cats in :ph34r: VR,CL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
