K, i did an account and hopefully this url works. http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i18/warthogmadman987/april_05l.jpg

Can anyone tell me what the blue small like bombs or thingamajiggers are/do? are they practice? To my understanding when the do "war games" things are painted blue. Does this mean that they actually use a-10s in war games and the a-10 can actually drop something? Can i get some info?

 

bombs are on the center racks. i forget what you call them racks, but i have some small ones sitting on my model table.

The blue bombs are used in many Airforces to practice bombs mate, They drop in a similar fashion so give accurate feed back for training purposes mate. Its better to drop a £50 concrete bomb than a £100,000 real one.

 

Hope this answers your question mate

ya, thanks. but so exactly how accurate are they to the real thing, like when an a-10 was in combat situations, i image they somehow must be the same in weight and drag ratios and what not?
