acknowledged GBU-54 guidance kit is dummy kit

[wwWolfcom]

Current situation

GBU-54's tail guidance kit is labeled as 'Dummy kit, KMU-572(D-2)/B'


But according to congress record, KMU-572(D-2)/B is Dummy set for load training.

First Material
CONGRESSIONAL RECORD—SENATE April 28,2025
In this record, They mention two KMU-572s "KMU–572(D–2)/B Trainer (JDAM)," and "KMU–572 JDAM Guidance Kits for GBU–38/54;"
Both are handled separately, and KMU-572(D-2) is specifically mentioned as dummy/training kit.

Second Material

In this image, Label is same as in game. And there is stencil "MK82 LOAD TRAINER NOT FOR FLIGHT" on other side of label.
Even the wings are welded.

And using common sense, Using Dummy kit on live ammo does not make sense.

Third Material

DVIDS - Images - Munitions Systems Specialists Assemble GBU-38 [Image 7 of 15]

Label should be like this image (GBU 38 also use KMU-572B)
'Guidance kit
KMU-572B'

TLDR;
Label on tail guidance kit of GBU 54 should be fixed.
Also, add label same to GBU-38 since both are same tail guidance kit.

Sorry but changing labels isn't something that is going to happen, not many people look at labels and it has no effect on the weapon in game, reporting this and assigning dev time to it would be a waste of resources. 

thank you
