I am surprised that the US have not given Britan the technology to use gps guided bombs and the gps units for the ground troops. How hard could that be to put a gps unit and some guidance fins onto a british iron bomb?

The key to close air support is communications and giving the right coordinates to the bombs. Don't want to give the bombs your own map coordinates. Getting the numbers programmed into the bomb's guidance system is the key.
