Timster76 Posted October 6, 2022 Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) G’day fellow pilots, I finally made it to mission 10 and after I read the briefing and took a look in the mission planer I wondered on how it is intended to deploy the GBU-10s. It seems obvious that you don’t drop them from 500 feet, but what’s the plan here? Should I toss them or should I climb to 8.000 feet and make a normal drop? If someone has any experience on this and is able to help, that would be very much appreciated. BTW I made a video series in german.

Istari6 Posted July 21, 2024 Posted July 21, 2024 I just completed this mission. My approach was to fly NOE after pushing from the Marshal point. Hit WP 8, then turned to IP at 9, headed towards WP 10. At that point I began a slow rise, trying to give the TGP a LOS onto the cave entrance without rising so much I entered the SA-10s range. Was able to sight the cave entrance and released both GBU-10s at probably 1500-2000 ft AGL, with good impacts on target. Then I broke down again to NOE. I was never lit up by the SA-10.
