Full Weapon Guide | VTOL VR

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* AGM-161 Laser Bombs (A2G) GBU-12 Anti radiation (A2G) AGM-88 AGM-126 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. Join my community discord server!
