in roadmap BDU 50 Practice Bombs

[Gambit21]

I thought at one point that I'd seen these on the Viper road map - can anyone confirm?

I might be mixing this up with another module.

 

I could really use them for a project that's in the works.

The BDU-45 is essentially an inert Mk82, used by the navy - it's a 500lb class weapon (which we should get AFAIK).

They're in the game for other modules, as well as the BDU-33, so I'd expect we'll get them eventually.

Ahh...so the 45/45b is Navy only.

Got it.

BDU 50 is the exact same as a BDU 45. 50 is Air Force, 45 is Navy.

Then I guess my query is about the bdu-50. Thread title changed.

Those are GBU-12s being loaded in the video. The bomb body IS a BDU-50, but once the CCG and fins are installed, it becomes a GBU-12.

 

I'm an F-16C weapons load tech, so I'm just dropping you some knowledge my friend.
