A "Smart Bomb" refers to precision-guided munitions designed to hit specific targets with high accuracy. Unlike traditional bombs that can cause widespread damage, smart bombs use advanced technology, such as GPS and laser guidance systems, to ensure they strike their intended location. This capability minimizes collateral damage and increases the effectiveness of military operations.
These weapons are often used in modern warfare to target enemy installations, vehicles, or infrastructure while reducing the risk to civilians. The development of smart bombs has transformed military strategies, allowing for more strategic and controlled use of force in conflicts, such as those seen in Iraq and Afghanistan.
