Practical Weapon Video Guide

This is a practical, fairly detailed but simple guide on what each munition for the FA-26b (and others) can do and how to use each type.

Weapons shown in this video, by category:
- Dumb bombs* (A2G)
- Mk.82
- Mk.82AIR
- Mk.83
- CBU-97
- Hydra-70 *(missile, not a bomb)

- Optical Fire & Forget (A2G)
- CAGM-6
- AGM-65

- GPS Bombs (A2G)
- GBU-38
- AGM-89*

- Laser Bombs (A2G)
- GBU-12

- Anti radiation (A2G)
- AGM-88
- AGM-126
- AGM-161

- Radar (A2A)
- AIM-120
- AIM-7

- IR (A2A)
- Aim-9
- AIM-9E
- AIRS-T

*AGM-89 anti-ship cruise missile uses GPS, but it has its own internal seeking system to find the targeted ship as it moves. Pretty useful.

GPS bombs and cruise missiles can only hit stationary targets. Optical and anti-radar are great for moving targets but when you need to drop a bomb on a moving target, laser is the only option. I usually use the optical AGM-65’s for most moving targets though, as you’re usually dealing with tanks or trucks in that scenario and they’re more than powerful enough.

You can get air kills with optical, anti radar and laser guided munitions, but the odds are slim. It’s basically a trick shot.
