I have a question regarding CAS (Well more accurately, about attacking vehicles.) How does a platform like the F-35 deal with movers? As a former tank guy my first course of action upon encountering a fixed wing air threat was to get moving and fast. Now there are vehicles in motion on the battlefield whether they are aware of an air threat or not. Obviously Maverick works, as does LGB, but what does an aircraft that is only hauling around GPS guided munitions do when it has to attack armor that is moving around at a 20+ miles per hour and changing directions? Is CBU97/105 the way of the future in regards to taking out vehicles on the move?
