whats the best profile for yeeting a dumb bomb/jdam??

[eatthis]

as above obviously its gonna be as high and fast as possible but does anybody have any actual numbers? dump tanks and hit m1.6+ witha single 1k lb bomb at 35k pull nose up to 45 deg and release it? probably doing m1.3 ish and 50k feet ish by then??

You want to actually hit something and land safely after?

land yes, accurate enough for a jdam or lgb to guide, pinpoint isnt required

There are many limitations here. One thing is laser slant range about 10nm iirc which puts you vertically at max 52k, while our LANTIRN has max 40k alt limit iirc.

Then the GBU-31 is advised to be employed at level 1G flight, no more than 570KIAS/0.95M if I read things correctly.

I don't know if you guys are referring to a mod for the 14, as it can't carry JDAMs in DCS. I get the advisory, but to add, you can loft the GBU-31 reliably from other planes. It doesn't need to be 1G level flight.

450kts, gentle pull at 3nm (low level)/5nm ish high level, holding the pickle button.

i was thinking about buddy lasing via helo or jtac, as for the bomb itself i have no idea hich 1 would or wouldnt work, im well aware this is a fringer borderline mental thing to try
