Divide Et Impera Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Mk-84 for only unarmored and light armour ? Its very effective against tanks and all heavy armour [sIGPIC]http://forums.eagle.ru/signaturepics/sigpic86251_7.gif[/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toby23 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 (edited) I agree and I have updated the guide to show this. From the Manual - Although most effective against unarmored and lightly-armored targets, the Mk-84 can also be effective against armored targets when dropped in close proximity Edited July 22, 2011 by toby23 Ryzen 5800X, 32GB RAM, RTX 3060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadTommy Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Great guide... but what you list as suitable for light to medium armour always destroys the heaviest armour in the field. Mk-82, GBU-38, GBU-12, AGM-65D/H. Also the CBU-97/87 are very effective against groups of mobile targets. i5-3570K @ 4.5 Ghz, Asus P8Z77-V, 8 GB DDR3, 1.5GB GTX 480 (EVGA, superclocked), SSD, 2 x 1680x1050, x-fi extreme music.

toby23 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 Tommy, I agree with you but I don't have experience dropping these bombs in real life, so I can't comment. My information is sourced from the manual, the USAF, FAS.org, Northrup Grumman and Wikipedia and also based on first hand JTAC accounts. Perhaps the sim is a bit too generous with bomb damage?

I feel your pain, I have the same issue with my Threat Guide...what manuals and other locations say isn't the same as how they act in the sim. Very frustrating and I don't have time to go and test every AAA or SAM threat to find out the in sim ranges/limits. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website | v303rd Fighter Group Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
