Post-penetration physics for delayed-fuze bombs - Which modules and bombs?

Adjusted simulation of post-penetration physics for delayed-fuze bombs. They will now penetrate the ground and objects, and they will decelerate accordingly. Known issue: low impact velocity bombs with long fuze delays might “hang” in the air after penetrating an object.

Improved MIM-72G missile performance: increased autopilot response, improved engine parameters, reduced smoke opacity, and added the proximity fuze.

 

 

Can someone comment on which modules and bombs can actually utilize this function? 

 

I have tried to figure this out for the A-10C II and I am lost.

I think any of them that allow delay fuze. But I think is just a visual candy... as if you delay or not the bomb the result will be the same with a plane inside a bunker. I asked that to Grim Reapers that made the test, and he said that fusing or not, the result would be the same. A destroyed plane inside the bunker. Hope it would make a different result in future.

I have seen the video to verify that post penetration now works 😉.

 

I was looking more for info about which modules and bombs have delayed fuze options. 

I can't find any in the A-10C II.

I think it’s any of the GBUs….laser guided or GPS. If you can choose between “instant” snd “delayed”, then you will get the penetration w/delay if you select “delayed” fusing. In other words, it doesn’t have to specifically be a “Penetrator” bomb like a GBU-24.  May be limited to 1,000 or 2,000 pound bommbs; don’t know b/c I would drop anything but a 2,000lb bomb on a hardened shelter. So try the GBU-10 or the GBU-31(? Whatever the 2,000lb JDAM is)

Hell yeah, penetration videos rule.

Giggity.

What we really need is fuze delay on warbirds. We don't really have any planes that are designed for dive bombing and

therefore, a low pass to drop bombs more accurately always results in blowing yourself up as well.
