A guided bomb is a type of munition designed to hit a specific target with high precision. Unlike traditional bombs, which fall freely and can miss their intended target, guided bombs use guidance systems such as GPS or laser guidance to steer themselves during flight. This technology allows for more effective strikes while minimizing collateral damage. Guided bombs are often deployed from military aircraft and can be used against various targets, including buildings and vehicles. Examples of guided bombs include the JDAM (Joint Direct Attack Munition) and the GBU-12 Paveway II. These weapons enhance the effectiveness of airstrikes in modern warfare.
