What exactly is the point of the ranging bar? Isn't the GBU-12 laser guided?

Only if someone is designating with laser.

Yes, someone as in a UAV which you can control.

If the scenario has a UAV available. And anyway that's beside the point, it's for when you need to drop the GBU on a target that isn't designated.

Looks like it's actually be part of the ILS. I've been placing the targets on runways.. my bad.
