  • Опубликовано: 20 сен 2017
  • The GBU-39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) is a 250 lb (110 kg) precision-guided glide bomb that is intended to provide aircraft with the ability to carry a higher number of more accurate bombs. Most US Air Force aircraft will be able to carry (using the BRU-61/A rack) a pack of four SDBs in place of a single 2,000 lb (907 kg) bomb. The SDB relies on the Global Positioning System to provide navigation to the target. Furthermore, the small size of the bomb allows a single strike aircraft to carry more of the munitions than is possible using currently available bomb units.

      More likely Windows Embedded or Embedded CE - when you build the OS image you customise what you leave in and out, like all the consumer stuff and unneccessary services, so it's not quite as goofy as the idea of XP on weapon diagnostic tools.

    Using the F22 to carry Air to Ground munitions is a waste. Lets save those flight hours for Air to Air training and combat.

      @kellenhietpas7349 6 лет назад +2

      If an f22 is in Syria doing air-air mission but can also carry a few SDB and support ground troops it sounds like a win win to me

    • @rbrtck
      @rbrtck 6 лет назад +1

      +Kel Hip Sure, why not? The F-22 is in the area anyway for various reasons, including CAP, some SIGINT, looking out for pop-up SAM threats, and general situational awareness, so it might as well carry some air-to-ground ordnance to support ground troops or take out SAM sites should those situations arise. They could call in F-15Es or other assets, but time could be critical, and for SAM sites the F-22 would be the better option anyway. Each F-22 could carry, for example, 4 GBU-39s (SDBs) or a single GBU-32 (1000-lb JDAM) in place of 2 of its AIM-120s, leaving 4 AIM-120s + 2 AIM-9s for air-to-air, which makes for a light but useful multirole/swing-role loadout.
      Another reason to do at least a little air-to-ground with the F-22 is of course to test its air-to-ground capabilities in a realistic combat scenario. In a potential future war against a major power, the F-22 may well be tasked with SEAD/DEAD and other offensive counter air missions in the early stages, not just air-to-air, so we need the pilots and their aircraft to have that sort of proficiency. Naturally the F-35 is envisioned for those tasks, but I think when they see how bad things can get with dense, overlapping SAM networks and fast interceptors such as MiG-31s streaking in when warned by long-wave radar, they may decide that the F-22's superior all-aspect stealth (it's not stealthier at the frontal aspect than the F-35, but it is from most other aspects) and kinematics (including Mach 1.7 supercruise) will give it a better chance to survive and get the job done. I mean, it can drop bombs at double the speed and altitude of other strike fighters.
      I wouldn't worry about F-22s doing too much of the bombing in Syria, though. They're only flying a very tiny percentage of the air-to-ground sorties, leaving the bulk of the work to older fighters. They're just staying limber and maintaining fitness, so to speak, for really bad potential future scenarios, and are not getting worn out by any reasonable measure. They're not carrying external ordnance on their wings, either, although if necessary they could. An F-22 could (with the appropriate racks and sacrificing stealth) carry 8 GBU-31s (2000-lb JDAMs) plus a full load of 8 air-to-air missiles all at once, no problem. Even an F-15E Strike Eagle couldn't do that. :)

      the f35 can load under its wing the weight of an unloaded f16 in bombs... all this while still retaining a smaller cross section than any 4th gen fighter.

    • @rbrtck
      @rbrtck 6 лет назад

      +Locutus494 Physically, at least, the F-22 can carry about as much. If it were to be programmed to deliver heavy munitions carried externally on its wings, then it has four hardpoints with standard military buses for intelligent weapons and a capacity of 5,000 lbs each. Based on its maximum takeoff weight, its maximum capacity for ordnance (internal and external) is about 22,000 lbs. They're more comparable to the F-15E in this regard than other legacy fighters.

    • @rbrtck
      @rbrtck 6 лет назад +2

      +hoofed SDBs are meant to be carried by non-stealth fighters, as well. They're enough to take out many targets, have very good bunker-penetration capabilities despite their light weight, and are intended to keep collateral damage to a minimum (500-lb bombs are overkill for many types of target, especially as precision improves).
      As for the ability of stealth fighters to carry ordnance, as already pointed out they can carry more than most legacy fighters when carrying externally as well as internally. Of course they have to sacrifice stealth for this, and in stealth mode their payload is far more limited. However, is it really that bad? For comparison, once the F-16 is loaded with everything it needs for most missions, typically it only has two hardpoints left for ordnance, which is pretty much what a stealth fighter has internally. Sure, larger legacy fighters can carry more, but this is still a useful load, and they don't have the option of a stealth mode.
