I think you’ll like this. Footage of a UKR Mig-29 executing a “toss” of AASM 250 Hammer bombs, and the result.

You would be correct!

The AASM 250s are rocket assisted. JDAM-ERs and SDBs are not.

I wonder how far these bombs are released from the target...same for JDAM-ERs and SDBs.

I wonder what steering cues the Mig-29 pilots get.

On NATO jets, including F-16s, the pilot would get pitch and bank steering cues on the HUD and the PFD.

On the MiG-29s, the target coordinates are input on the ground.

On NATO jets, the pilot can input target coordinates while airborne.

Thanks for the ping!
