This is impressive, an EIGHTY 500-lb smart bomb drop from 40,000 feet!

Even more impressive because they didn’t make use of explosives. So you can exactly see were the bombs striked their intended targets. Nice stuff.
They even got a hit on that 50 gallon drum.

Why not spend a few bucks more and fill the bombs with explosives? It would have made a much more impressive demo.

Impressive. They really hit within a few meters as ELP has mentioned in the F-117 thread.

Well they WERE dropped from 40,000 feet 😀

The thing that’s always puzzled me about that video is why do many of the entry holes on the targets have charred paint around them? I realize some heat is going to be generated by the bomb passing through but it surprises me that it would be THAT much (also the charring isn’t on all the holes just some of them).

Now just imagine if we had a hundred B-2s…

Fantastic! Well documented.

Yup. Impressive. This is one of the videos that demonstrates the useful accuracy of JDAM.

Thanks for the video, A225HVY!!! 🙂
Works for me, I use the VLC media player…
Pitty those bombs had no explosives… :diablo:
