2) I was curious about how to implement the "GBU-39 Small-Diameter Bomb (SDB)" into the game

250lb SDB
(Yes it's Wikipedia, but it's still good for general info if not specifics)

Make it the same as a normal 2000lb bomb? Or give it the accuracy/stats of a 2000lb Paveway?

Somewhere inbetwwen the 2 options, accurate, but not so great HEK?

Guys this might help, read the primary article seems like a very potent weapon for such a small package. Here's the addy:

I'm also considering the Acc, the "Circular Error Probable" is about half that of the JDAM so that means it's more accurate. However while it seems to have a large explosive radius it has little to no fragmentation effect due to the casing so it seems likly the "HE Pen" might be fairly low.

For the moment I gave it stats half way between a 1000lb and 2000lb bomb...we all know weapon manufactures overstate the effectiveness of their products

However if that thermal seeker warhead works as advertised this thing is almost a super Maverick.

I had some info posted somewhere on this when it was still in final trials with the USMC. However I guess it wasn't here but this is the appropriate place for the following.

Note the article ends with the fact that all existing stock is and will be modified as well. They performed 8 for 8 within .75 meters of the target during tests (Actual simulated combat testing can be seen on History Channels "Lock n Load" series.) per the article. I would think this will enhance the fire control modifier and effectiveness to some extent for the rockets in WinSPMBT(?). Go USMC Cobras!! And that from a NAVY guy, maybe the 100+ temp days have finally caught up to me!?!
