DSMS Page items:
Station box indication for ARG-20 beneath the warhead type (M151 or M282). For example:
MK-151
APKWS
To the right or left of the station box would indicate the number of APKWS rockets on the station.
From the Inventory Page / ROCKET page, the following options would be available:
OSB 1. STAT page
OSB 2. RET (return to previous page)
OSB 4. LAU (number of LAU on the station)
OSB 5. QTY (number of APKWS rockets on the station)
OSB 6. MNT PYLON
OSB 7. MOTOR. Select between MK66 or MK40
OSB 8. LAUNCHER. Select between LAU131 or LAU68
OSB 9. LOAD
OSB 10. LOAD SYM
OSB 18. CODE. Upon pressing this OSB, the scratchpad is available on the HUD/UFC to enter the desired 4-digit laser code that the rocket will guide on. This would need to match the TGP designation laser PRF or external designation source. Once entered, the code number string would be displayed below CODE.
Engagement
Once CCIP or CCRP are selected with the APKWS selected as the selected weapon, the pilot simply fires the rocket as he/she would with an unguided rocket using the current HUD symbology. Assuming laser CODE is set correctly to the designation source, the rocket will guide to the designation source upon launch. These is no unique HUD symbology for this weapon.
GBU-54 Laser-JDAM
The GBU-54 is a strap-on guidance kit for a standard Mk-82 general purpose bomb. The guidance kit includes both the GPS/INS guidance kit and a laser seeker / target detection guidance kit that allows the bomb to guide on moving targets.
The GBU-54 can be loaded on any station that a GBU-38 can be loaded on (any 1760 smart station).
DSMS Page Items:
On the DSMS page station boxes, each GBU-54 box would consist of:
GBU-54 in top left of the box
Laser code on bottom left of box (XXXX)
Status indication in bottom right of box (RDY)
On the Inventory page, it will be the same as the standard LGB Inventory page but the SERIES selection at OSB 16 is removed. As with other LGBs, the laser code will be entered here at OSB 12.
TAIL fuze options are only:
FMU152
FMU139
The NOSE fuze option is only:
DSU38
HUD Items:
The only change regarding HUD symbology is that it uses standard JDAM HUD symbology, but the weapon name is:
GBU-38
M/GBU-38
Engagement:
Upon creating the SPI at the target location, the pilot would slave the targeting pod to the SPI and laser-designate the target (static or moving) in point track or area mode. When the bomb is released, it will use GPS/INS guidance to reach the target location and the laser designation will continually update GPS/INS guidance to allow the weapon to change guidance while in flight based on the designated location. If laser-designation is lost, the weapon will continue to guide on the last designated location.
HUD
Rather than a CCRP reticle with Launch Acceptable Region (LAR) indication, it should instead be a stable on the left side of the HUD with indications for:
Maximum range
Optimal range
Minimum range
Current range
Between the minimum and optimal range, the staple is closed to form a box. The current range is caret that moves along the LAR range indications. Below the LAR staple is a digital indication of target range.
