what does DUD mean?

It means you have selected incorrect fusing for what ever weapon you are trying to employ... an example would be selecting MFUZ - Nose when employing a GBU-10/12/16 weapon. Since the speaker is in the nose, there is no Mechanical Fuze (MFUZ) in the nose. You have to select EFUZ- Inst. for it to work...

what s abbreviation of the DUD
I'm not sure it's an abbreviation to begin with. Could literally mean that the bomb is a dud, as in it won't work as intended (it won't detonate). That's just my guess though.

I have struggled with erasing wrongly inputted parameters. One time I got a DUD indication after mistakenly using MFUZ for a GBU bomb but could not get to reverse the mfuz setting.

Any way to get this corrected inflight and get rid of the dud.

Just set the MFUZ back to OFF, EFUZ to INST and you should be good to go.

"DUD" Means the bomb does not have enough time after release to arm before it hits the ground. It will not explode on impact.

 

Can be caused by fuzing delays improperly set, releasing the bomb to low, releasing with improper dive angle, improper fuz delay with the wrong fin/drag options, etc. Not sure if the game models all this correctly however.

 

The phrase "it's a dud"

The bomb is a "dud".

It will not go boom.

Since the speaker is in the nose, there is no Mechanical Fuze (MFUZ) in the nose.

 

 

This explains why playing justin bieber songs to enemy just before bomb impact qualify this type of bombs as weapons of mass destruction. They should be banned immediately.
