What happens when someone takes control of the guidance? A bomb dropped from the sky is going to obey the laws of physics and that's it.

Laws of physics? What are you, a narc?

You dont just "take over" an inertial guidance system.

No, but the possibility exists.

In the same way the atoms that make up you and the atoms that make up a car wont hit eachother if you get hit. Unless there is some massive amount of fuckery theres no stopping a bomb once its dropped.
