Short answer... ripple 2.
At altitude your window to drop in is fairly huge... Manual lase from 25000 at slow speed... ripple 3 max spacing... wait a few seconds... ripple next 3.... even though I've past the optimal drop point for the last 3, the fact that the laser is already firing brings them back in line.... at least that was the working theory in 2003 when it worked.
Back then you could watch the ACMI internal view of the last LGB and you would see it change it's tracking as I would switch from one target to the next... these days LGBs don't behave the same way... no idea which is more realistic.
