- Range: 4.5km
- Missile speed: mach 2+
- Manoeuverability: fair
- Technique: fire and forget.
-
- Notes: A very advanced anti-radar
- missile. It benefits over the AGM-65

- Free-fall high explosive bomb
-
- Quantity per station: %
- Guidance: None
- Range: Dependant on altitude of drop
- Technique: dive, level or toss-bombing
-
- Notes: A traditional 1000lb high
- explosive bomb. The accuracy of
- delivery is the most important factor
- when using this weapon. Note that
- delivery under 1000' is likely to
- cuase blast damage to your aircraft.

- Retarded high explosive bomb
-
- Quantity per station: %
- Guidance: None
- Range: Dependant on altitude of drop
- Technique: dive, level or toss-bombing
-
- Notes: A retarded version of the Mk83
- Slick 1000lb high explosive bomb.
- The retarding fins slow the bombs
- descent, allowing the delivering
- aircraft time to clear the blast
- area.

- Retarded runway-penetration bomb
-
- Quantity per station: %
- Guidance: None
- Range: Dependant on altitude of drop
- Technique: low level or toss bombing
-
- Notes: This parachute deployed bomb
- floats nose down over the target
- before being blasted several feet
- below the surface by a rocket motor.
- The explosion then hurls chunks of
- runway surface into the air,
- rendering the runway unusable.

- High explosive Glide bomb
-
- Quantity per station: %
- Guidance: None
- Range: Dependant on altitude of drop
- Technique: level or toss-bombing
-
- Notes: A large glide bomb which is
- highly destructive. The glide
- delivery gives the bomb a much longer
- range than free-fall but is slightly
- less accurate.

- Guidance: None
- Range: Dependant on altitude of drop
- Technique: level or toss-bombing
-
- Notes: a destructive area-effect weapon
- utilising glide delivery to
