JDAM-ER: Precision Technology on the Battlefield
JDAM-ER (Joint Direct Attack Munition – Extended Range) is a guidance kit that converts conventional bombs into precision-guided weapons using GPS and an inertial navigation system. Developed jointly by the U.S. Air Force and Navy, the system enables bombs weighing between 500 and 2,000 pounds (230 to 910 kg) to strike targets with high precision in all weather conditions, with a range of up to 28 km.
The use of this type of weaponry underscores the growing reliance on smart munitions on the battlefield, enabling strategic strikes on specific targets while reducing the risk of operational errors.
