MobiSev Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 What would that do? JDAMs dont get intercepted by SAMs Modules owned: FC3, M-2000C, Mig-21bis, F-5E, AJS-37 Viggen, F/A-18C, KA-50, Mi-8, F-14A&B, JF-17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeriaGloria Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) In DCS. There are plenty of “non-winged” JDAM-esque bombs, including the 250kg version of LS-6 notably. I think this author is pretty biased towards certain things but this page is a good snapshot of what the smart bomb industry looked like in China ten years ago https://www.ausairpower.net/APA-PLA-GBU.html I’m pretty sure winged bombs are slowly superceding the JDAM type with fixed strakes, so I don’t expect it too much as it’s “last-decade” technology. It all depends if they were qualified on JF-17, I haven’t heard anything about them being included by Deka, so I wouldn’t expect any. If all you want is something not intercepted by missiles you got your SEAD weapons for that Edited April 6, 2020 by AeriaGloria Black Shark Den Squadron Member: We are open to new recruits, click here to check us out or apply to join! https://blacksharkden.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorianR666 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 JDAMs dont get intercepted by SAMs thats a mistake in base DCS game. For example Tor was specifically designed to be able to intercept such weapons, but it doesnt in DCS AFAIK.

foxwxl Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 The bomb type weapon doesn't get intercepted in the game, not in the RL. And IAM bomb without wing should have a quite short range(not like the J-82 you have in the game), usually not safy enough for you to deliver against SAM.

GIGA_HORSE Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Yes, in theory, Tors should be able to intercept bombs, how effective this is, is questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paco2002 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Sam's do intercept bombs. Yesterday for example an SA-2 shot me down both GB-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Sam's do intercept bombs. Yesterday for example an SA-2 shot me down both GB-6 That's not defined as a bomb in DCS. GB-6 in DCS would be something like cruise missile/rocket whatever and thus can be shot down by SAMs in DCS. Try the same with an actual bomb. Won't get shot down, never.
