is it possible to have some sort of laser guided bombs or missiles that are actualy guided by a laser target marker which is used by some infantry on the ground!! like a squade leader needs airsupport and uses this laser target marker and the A10(and the A10 should be in the same squade) drops the bomb or launches the missile and it hits the point that the SL has locked on. i have seen this type of bombings in bf2 modern combat but there is not an actual bomber in the air:

Already suggested. Mwaaahahaha i beat Vikingo to it!

HAHAHHA and we have green smoke. Also a good cobra gunner should be able to put a rocket on top of the smoke.

uhhh my bad then ops:

reality no prob everyone does it! Just look around and i know the Devs removed alot of the old threads hard to know that.

lol this has been suggested around 2 years ago.

by reading the first few replys to the old thread, this idea seems possible, and would make the game more fun as it is closer to reality

Ah smoke, so green, so useless.

1. You can throw it like 30 feet.

2. MEC guys can see the smoke too. They'll probably leave.

3. Attack orders are invisible to the enemy, are exact, and have unlimited range.

True, but if it's on Kashan and they're in the middle of the desert, there's not much cover to run to and the Littlebird would outrun them.

It is possible to add laser guided/ as in put a target designation on a vehicle so a jet can bomb it. Just use something similiar to the jets bomb mode when it auto targets.

Also Been Suggested before.

I'm sure that can't be done anyway

or just have a F-15 Eagle and make the passenger have a Laser Guided Bomb.(Like the cobra)

would this work?

sl or commander puts down a bomb marker like a move marker but can only put it down if they are zoomed in with the soflam. the marker puts out a heat source that the bombs can lock on to. the bombs are like missiles but have a velocity of 0 so they only go as fast as the jet was going when it dropped it. the pilot locks on to the heat source that the marker puts out and drop the bomb, the bomb then flys to the target and boom.

i don't see why this would not work, there are no crazy lasers that the bomb has to lock on to.

I belive the Dev's want it to work as Realistic as possible, therefor they want an "Actual" laser pointing @ the target. I belive they dont want to "spawn" an object because that would probaly be fairly easy to do for them

no full stop.

if u cant destroy targets with proper bombs then theres no reason to give planes laser-guided bombs

basically learn to bomb properally

i can bomb fine, but with people wanting these laser guided bombs this is my idea to make it happen.

Well,I know in USI,the Apache has a pilot enabled Laser Guided missle system,exactly like the A-10.Should so be but in here.

also with guided bombs it would take some teamwork to do, plus it would look cool.

like a squade leader needs airsupport and uses this laser target marker and the A10(and the A10 should be in the same squade)

theres a problem with that, if they are in the same squad, then they will need to make it so that about 8-10 Warthogs spawn(one for each squad) and that cuts down on the ground forces. I think its fine as it is, I do what my squad leader says, then I ppatrol for enemy armor, nothing complicated about that, and i can cover more than just my squad.

Im saying, IF the LGBs come back, it should NOT be that you have to be in the same squad to drop a LGB on a target.

I would like to see some kind of support request available for the squad leader. for example spawning one bomb with time delay of ca 20 sec perhaps?

edit: of course only a person that has a soflam and it actually looking at the target can do it.

Massive re-suggestion.
