Thanks Aurcov.

Yeah the Longshot is a toss up. Depends what you want to do. Isn’t that stock kit limited to 1000lb weight? And yes it is easier to mod certain aircraft but there is ( in the case of the B-1, B-2, F-18E/F as other aircraft grow the ability some unworkability with that nice simplicity of Longshot, where you do radar assisted/enhanced bombing ( targets that allow it ) and offset bombing which in the case of those aircraft have a faster interface to pipe the enhanced cords directly from the bomb/nav system into the selected weapons on the rack on your final bomb run. Also the thing were we do a lot of NCW ( netcentric warfare ) now where a batch of cords are piped into your display over the network and you assign the weapons to them on your MFD menu without typing in LAT LONGs.
Correct me, but in the case of Longshot you have to type in the cord on the UFD? Good for a lot of situations and a lot of fighters you don’t want to install a new laser-ring gyro-secure anti-jam-anti-spoof GPS system into. I think both systems have their place.
