So why is the walleye being included within list of planned weapons? this is a Vietnam vintage weapon, that would have only really been employed with the F/A18A when it was one of few guided munitions available at its first service years.

 

By 2000s This weapons wouldn't be in service anymore on a F/A18C unlike the Aim7M and Aim9M series which despite having been largely outclassed by newer missiles, are still some around in inventory and are occasionally carried in training exercises or are deployed In lower threat combat environments like in Syria.

Because we are trying to do most Hornet weapons from IOC to 2005.

I'm really looking forward to the Walleye. It's a very interesting weapon imho.

Same It's basically a non powered maverick, the cool stuff comes with the datalink pod without it it's fire and forget with the datalink pod you can keep the targeting camera active and update target and flight path in real time as it's falling it's pretty cool.

id like to think a maverick would be more effective ( besides the obvious fact it doesnt require flying directly over targer) simply bacause the Walleye is 1960s vintage technology, and ever since AGM65D, the mavericks we have have IR based , so target acquisition is easier against anything that emits a heat source ( like a tank)

 

IM guessing the Walleyes TV image quality would be of worse quality and more noticeably blurry even when compared to the CCD Agm65H/K

Hehe don’t worry we’ve all had some fairly hilairious typos from mobile devices. What it does do is highlight “the the impotence of proofreading” ;)
