USAF high level bombing through clouds over North Vietnam, 14 June 1966.An EB-66 tactical jamming aircraft leads four F-105 fighter-bombers as a Pathfinder. Also called synchronous radar bombing or buddy bombing, this method required the EB-66 navigator to use his K-5 radar bombing navigation system to detect the target and send a signal tone to the F-105s to drop their bombs.
IEEE 1516.2-2010 – Standard for Modeling and Simulation High Level Architecture – Object Model Template (OMT) Specification [6] Major improvements in IEEE 1516-2010 include Modular FOMs, [8] incorporation of the DLC APIs in C++ and Java, a Web Services API [9] and Fault Tolerance. [10]
The Real-time Platform Reference Federation Object Model (RPR FOM) enables linking computer simulations of discrete physical entities into complex virtual worlds. It is a High Level Architecture (HLA) federation object model developed for distributed simulation applications of defense and security. [ 1 ]
The island of Saipan in the Marianas was assaulted to provide Pacific air bases from which to bomb Japanese cities. Initial high-level, daylight bombing raids using high-explosive bombs on Japanese cities with their wood and paper houses produced disappointing results; the bombers were then switched to low-level, nighttime incendiary attacks ...
The STU features a retarder tail unit (RTU) that is for low-level bombing missions, while a ballistic tail unit (BTU) is for strategic high level bombing. [13] [12] [14] [15] Each HSLD-500 GPB carries 10,300 steel shells of 15 mm diameter. Each shell can target an area of up to 50 m from place of detonation with fragment density of >1 hit/sq m ...
The Chinese development of the precision-guided bomb began in the 1970s after the Chinese military observed the American usage of Paveway in the Vietnam War.Factory 624, later known as the Harbin Jiancheng Group, a subsidiary of Norinco, began the development process in 1974, with prototypes completed in 1980.

As to the distinction between tactical and strategic bombing - IMO it's of little relevance here. After all the result is still the same: human suffering, civilian losses and destruction of cities. Whether done by strategic high-altitude level bombers, dive bombers or fighter/bomber planes changes little.
