Of course it can hit its target and with a high Pk as well. Altitude really doesn't matter (unless it's too low to build up enough kinetic energy to control the munition).

Once the munition reaches terminal velocity, it's gonna fly like it does from 10K, 20k, 40K. . .no matter. . .but let's not get carried away here, we don't generally deliver at 40K or 50K.

BTW, usual limitation for standard PGM's are targeting related. Can the tgt pod designate and can the PGM detect from great ranges?

As far as GPS is concerned, GPS is GPS.

Coolbeans, thanks.

BTW: Maximum Ceiling for the F117? Is that knowable outside of a security clearance?
