GBU-54 February patch change

[Flapjacks]

So I noticed that some of the targets I usually have had no problem bombing with GBU-54's now aren't being killed as consistently. I saw this line in the changelog for yesterday's patch.

• Weapons. Corrected aiming data for GBU-10, KAB-1500-LG-Pr, KAB-1500LG, GBU-24, KAB-500L, GBU-54, GBU-12.

I did some testing and with the same coordinates entered for each type of bomb, the GBU-38's take out the targets no problem, but the GBU-54's seem to fall a little short only damaging the targets.

 

*Edit* just to be clear, I'm using the same exact coordinates that are set in the mission editor for both types of bomb.

So this didn't get fixed ED, what gives?

The digital model for this bomb doesn't still have a bright purple circle at the tip does it?  I don't think in real life it would be that pronounced of a color.  It always bothered me when I saw that on the bombs.

Depends on the angle:
