laser-guided bombs
Laser-guided bombs (LGBs) are precision-guided munitions that use a laser guidance system to hit specific targets. They are equipped with a laser seeker that detects the reflected laser light from a target illuminated by a laser designator, which can be operated by a person or another aircraft. This technology allows for greater accuracy compared to traditional bombs.
LGBs are commonly used by military forces to minimize collateral damage and increase the effectiveness of airstrikes. They can be deployed from various aircraft, including fighter jets and bombers, making them versatile tools in modern warfare. Their development has significantly changed the landscape of aerial combat and target engagement.
