Hi All,

I have a flight of B-52H x 4 flying over Cyprus at 35,000 through a series of same altitude Waypoints. 2 of the WPs are bombing Additional Waypoint Actions and as soon as the B-52s dive to about 10 or so thousand feet

is this right, even though I have tried various altitudes also in the 'ALTITUDE ABOVE' values also?

Thank you

With MK-82s the bomber settles on 21749' attacking a 423' elevation target. This is exactly 6500m. Same with CBUs and I assume MK-84s. Be aware that the "altitude above" option is altitude above target elevation so if you want a steady bomb from cruising altitude you want to subtract target elevation from "altitude above" option. ALCM didn't deviate from altitude delivering noticeably.

I've had success with "altitude above" option keeping bomber above this vertical distance relative to target elevation. I haven't seen them dip as low as you say.

Thank you for such a detailed response and mission. Off to watch now

Again, my thanks @Frederf
