Just a small suggestion, is it possible we can get a sound just before the JDAM hits the ground like one of those plane sounds on Korengal Valley?
It sounds abit weard hearing nothing and then suddenly the JDAM comes in, would be nice if you hear suddenly a plane coming in but cant see it, and a second later a JDAM goes off.
Thats all.

As far as I know, they already have this? Or it used to be, in .8 or .75. I remember hearing the jets and running away in a car. Then the Jdam hit, but I was out of the radius.

IIRC, the last time I heard a JDAM, you could hear the plane coming in right before the impact. Though it wasn't as pronounced as the plane sounds in Knorengal.

the bombs are droped from a fair height though.
best is the GBU 28 though (an M110 howitzer barrel full of explosives dropped from a plane)

most of the time you won't hear anything until it's too late.
When going to areial show did you noticed that the sound of a jet seems to 'follow' the jet ?
And JDAM are dropped at high heights,quite far.
