GBU 39 Small Diameter Bomb ( SDB) Explained

The GBU39 Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) is a 250 lb (110 kg) precisionguided glide bomb that is intended to provide aircraft with the ability to carry a higher number of more accurate bombs. Most US Air Force aircraft will be able to carry (using the BRU61, A rack) a pack of four SDBs in place of a single 2, 000 lb (907 kg) bomb. The small size of the bomb allows a single strike aircraft to carry more of the munitions than is possible using currently available bomb units. Factual, impartial and current. Aii
