FAB-500 M62

Literally a bomb. Feel free to use it, but give me credit.

Anyway, a little context:
The FAB-500 is a "dumb" bomb produced in the former Soviet Union/Russia. It's essentially a 500kg bomb, this build in specific is modeled after the M62 model (FAB-500 M62). The M62 was made as a slim, low-drag version of the previous FAB-500 (the M54 I think the previous one was called) to be mounted on faster jet fighter bombers or fighter jets with air-to-ground configurations. If I remember correctly, the M62 was mounted on planes such as the MiG-29 or some of the flankers or whatever, speaking of which, the aircraft in the thumbnail pic is this MiG-29.

Features (not many):
- 1:1 scale to the original bomb
- Boom boom effectiveness should be accurate to the real bomb
- Weight is almost perfectly the same as the real bomb (the real bomb was 500kg, the bomb here as itself in-game is maybe 507kg)
- Details are relatively the same (it's a rather simple, plain-looking bomb)
- Some words on the side of the bomb (eAsTeR eGg!1!1!!!!!1!1)

How to mount it (these steps are kinda important for those who don't know how to put it on something, even though it's rather simple to do so anyway):
1. Grab the red detacher (ignore the pylon).
2. Connect the uppermost point of the detacher to whatever part of the thing you want to put this bomb on.
3. among us (you're done).

Controls:
lol

Known problem(s) with the bomb:
Dropping the bomb is always somewhat off center from the bomb drop marker for the next 2 reasons (the 3rd thing is another issue):

  1. The detacher has a detach force of 32 instead of 0

  2. Even with this problem rectified, it still tends to fall off point, this could be due to the custom bomb's fuselage parts having weight/drag, you could try to make all of the bomb's parts weightless (MassScale set to 0) or you could just leave it because it adds a bit of realism to the whole dumb bomb thing.

  3. The bombs don't always explode, resulting in duds...more realism I guess?

Note:
I made this as a sh*tpost because I haven't uploaded anything in a little over a year, and yes, I was bored.

kthxbye (I'm probably gonna disappear for another year or so)

    It's a dumb bomb that's smarter than I am, and it's made of more parts than I have braincells.

    Also, the only reason why I wanted to make this bomb was that I wanted to have a CAS loadout for that specific MiG-29 I put a link to in the desc (the CAS loadout going to be kept to myself and myself only :troll:)

    If you're actually being serious about that statement and not actually joking, the explosive weight is 300kg, steel/metal casting/casing is an additional 200kg
