GBU-12 with MAU-169/B and MAU-169 A/B
-
Hello guys and girls,
I was wondering why now we have GbU-12’s in the original greenish skinhead and the ones with light creamy grey.
in BMS 4.32 the gbu-12 version that is modeled is the GBU-12 B/B that has the skin you see in BMS 4.32
now, over the years the Gbu-12 PW II has received some upgrades, the up grades have been done to the CCG ( computer control group) mounted on the head of the MK-82 wear head and also to the AFG ( airfoil group) mounted on the tail of the MK-82 warhead.
Correct cté me if i am wrong but i found the following:
GBU-12 B/B uses MAU-169/B (CCG) and MXU-650/B (AFG) both greenish ski colour. (Current BMS 4.32 version)
GBU-12 C/B uses MAU-169 A/B (CCG) grey skin? And MXU-650/B (AFG) Green skin.
all this to deduce that if like me you wish to use accurate skions for the modèles weapon in BMS, you should leave it completelly green. Or are the newly manufactured CCG’s simply all grey regardless of the version?

As of my -limited- knowledge, green kits are from Raytheon, gray are from Lockheed Martin. Haven’t dig more into what exact chips are in there in each manufacturer version.

That is already some good info mate :). It is some tomes disturbing, i saw the Belgian air force use Grey CCG with Green canards and Green AFG’s. Maybe rayer hein does not build the kits anymore, only for EGBU ? And LM took over since they are competitors, only guessing.

Some old info, hope it helps

Thank you very much mate
