**Q:** Laser locking is broken, when are you going to fix it?</br>
**A:** Fun fact, it isn't, you need to come from the direction of the laser, (laser is pointing to the east, you come from the west) and you drop the GBU, it will then guide itself to the target. The reasoning behind that is that the vehicle or building laser designated would obstruct the laser and the GBU would then be unable to lock on it. </br>
