Introduction

Guided bombs were introduced with the PC 1400 X (1,400 kg), a German manually-guided gliding bomb. It was introduced in Update 1.77 "Advancing Storm".

Manual

The only manually guided bomb in the game is the German PC 1400 X (1,400 kg). When used with the bombing sight it will get a additional guidance lines which tell you area in which the bomb will hit. Once dropped the bomb sight will lock onto the point. When commanding and while the bomb descends this area will shrink in size and finally turn into a crosshair. You need to make rather big correction commands as opposed to commanding missiles where usually small corrections are good enough.
