That's the first time an A-10C uses a GBU-31V(3) in combat. This GBU-31V(3) is a penetrator variant, the GBU-31V(1) is based on Mk-84 warhead. GBU-31V(3) uses the BLU-109 instead. It also uses a different guidance kit (KMU-557/B)

Somewhat different source, but here goes:

- Jack of many DCS modules, master of none.

- Personal wishlist: F-15A, F-4S Phantom II, JAS 39A Gripen, SAAB 35 Draken, F-104 Starfighter, Panavia Tornado IDS.
