Air to Air Ordnance






AIM-120 AMRAAM Slammer
Range:

25~30 miles under optimal conditions

(from a high altitude launch against a high-speed non-
maneuvering target)

Guidance:

Radar

Target:

Aircraft

AMRAAM is a supersonic, air launched, aerial intercept, guided
missile employing active radar target tracking, proportional navigation guidance, and active Radio
Frequency (RF) target detection. It employs active, semi-active, and inertial navigational methods
of guidance to provide an autonomous launch and leave capability against single and multiple
targets in all environments.



AIM-9 Sidewinder
Guidance:

IR

Range:

8+ miles depending on altitude and aspect

Target:

Aircraft

The missile's main components are an infrared homing guidance section, an
active optical target detector, a high-explosive warhead, and a rocket motor.
The infrared guidance head enables the missile to home on target aircraft
engine exhaust. An infrared unit costs less than other types of guidance systems, and can be used
in day/night and electronic countermeasures conditions. The infrared seeker also permits the pilot
to launch the missile, then leave the area or take evasive action while the missile guides itself to
the target.

Variants

AIM-9M - The M model has improved defense against infrared countermeasures, enhanced background
discrimination capability, and a reduced-smoke rocket motor. This model has all aspect IR capability.

AIM-9P – Less sophisticated than the M variant, the P model must have rear aspect lock on the target. The
P Model is not as maneuverable as the M model.

AIM-7 Sparrow
Range:

15

Guidance:

Semi-Active

Radar

Target:

Aircraft

The AIM-7 Sparrow is a radar-guided, air-to-air missile with a
high-explosive warhead. The AIM/RIM-7 series is a semiactive,
air-to-air, boost-glide mis sile, designed to be either rail or ejection
launched. Semiactive, continuous wave, homing radar, and hydraulically-operated control surfaces
direct and stabilize the missile on a proportional navigational course to the target. The AIM-7
semi-active guidance system requires that the aircraft it is fired from must continue to paint the
target with radar until impact.

Air to Ground Ordnance

LAU-3

Rocket Launcher

Range:

2 miles

Guidance:

balistic

Target:

Mobile soft, fixed soft, and unhardened buildings


Launchers convey and provide a suitable platform from which rockets are
carried and launched. The LAU-3 series Rocket Launcher contains 19 2.75 in
rockets. The launcher can be fired in single (one at a time) or ripple (one after
the other in multiple shots) mode. In ripple mode, the LAU-3 can fire 19
rounds in about one second. There are no service life requirements on the launcher.

40 nm (64 km) High altitude launch (unpowered)
->120 nm (200 km) Powered

Guidance:

GPS/INS

Target:

Mobile soft, fixed soft, and armored targets


The warhead of the AGM -154A consists of 145 BLU-97/B
submunitions. Each bomblet is designed for multi-target in one payload. The bomblets have a shaped
charge for armor defeat capability, a fragmenting case for material destruction, and a zirconium ring for
incendiary effects.


AGM-65 Maverick
Range:

17+ miles (12 nautical miles/27 km)

Guidance:

see variants information below

Target:

see variants information below

The AGM -65 Maverick is a tactical, air-to-surface guided missile
designed for close air support, interdiction and defense suppression
missions. It provides stand-off capability and high probability of strike
against a wide range of tactical targets, including armor, air defenses,
ships, transportation equipment and fuel storage facilities. Maverick was used during Operation Desert
Storm and, according to the Air Force, hit 85 percent of its targets.

Variants

Maverick A is armed with a 125lb. Warhead and guided by the most basic TV imaging. This is a daylight only weapon,
ideal for tanks. Smoke and/or haze will interfere with image tracking

Maverick B is armed with a 125lb. Warhead and guided by TV imaging without IR capabilities. The B model is basically
an upgrade from the A model. It has improved optics and targeting. But this is still only a daylight only weapon, ideal for
tanks. Smoke and/or haze will still interfere with image tracking

Maverick D is armed with a 125lb. Warhead and guided by IR imaging. This allows for all weather and nighttime
operations. The superior imaging allows for magnification which enables locking on from greater distances. The smaller
warhead makes this an ideal night time tank strike, small vehicle, and soft target weapon

Maverick G is armed with a 300lb. HE Warhead and guided by IR imaging. This allows for all weather and nighttime
operations. The large warhead makes the G model ideal for hardened targets and large vehicles such as ships.

AGM-88 HARM
Range:

30 plus miles (48 plus kilometers)

Guidance:

passive RF acquisition

Target:

Radar-equip Air Defense Systems

The AGM -88 HARM (high-speed
antiradiation missile) is a supersonic air-to-
surface tactical missile designed to seek and
destroy enemy radar-equipped air defense systems. The AGM -88 can detect, attack and destroy a target
with minimum aircrew input. Guidance is provided through reception of signals emitted from a ground-
based threat radar. It has the capability of discriminating a single target from a number of emitters in the
environment. The proportional guidance system that homes in on enemy radar emissions has a fixed
antenna and seeker head in the missile nose. A smokeless, solid-propellant, dual-thrust rocket motor
propels the missile. The Navy and Marine Corps F/A-18 and EA -6B have the capability to employ the
AGM -88. With the retirement of the F-4, the F-16C is the only aircraft in the current Air Force inventory to
use the AGM -88. The B version has an improved guidance section which incorporates an improved tactical
software and electronically reprogrammable memory.


BLU-107 Durandal
Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

Anti-Runway


Once the parachute-retarded low-level drop bomb attains a
nose-down attitude, it fires a rocket booster that penetrates the
runway surface, and a delayed explosion buckles a portion of
the runway. It can penetrate up to 40 centimeters of concrete,
creating a 200 square meter crater causing damage more
difficult to repair than the crater of a general-purpose bomb.


BSU-49

High Drag General Purpose High Explosive

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

bridges, unhardened buildings, electronic

installations, tanks, armored personnel carriers, SAMs,
and AAA


a MK-82 (500lb Low Drag General Purpose (LDGP)
bomb.) modified by attaching a BSU-49 AIR tail assembly.
The tail assembly provides a high speed, low altitude
delivery capability due to increasing the bomb trail. Additionally, bomb ricocheting or broaching is
less likely due to increased impact angles. The high drag delivery can provide better weapon
effects due to impact angle and reduced likelihood of casing break-up.

BSU-50 (HDGP)

High Drag General Purpose High

Explosive

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

wide variety of targets, including artillery, trucks,

bunkers, Scuds, surface-to-air missile sites, antiaircraft artillery
sites, early warning radars, and supply points

is a MK-84 2,000 pound bomb modified with a BSU-50/B high
drag tail assembly. The "ballute" air bag which deploys from the
tail provides a high speed, low altitude delivery capability by quickly slowing the bomb and allowing the
aircraft to escape the blast pattern. The tail assembly consists of a low-drag canister unit containing a
ballute (combination balloon and parachute), and a release lanyard assembly that opens the canister
releasing the ballute.

CBU-52 B/B

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

anti-personnel

and soft skinned vehicles

The CBU-52, loaded with 220 antimaterial, antipersonnel bomblets, weighs 785 pounds and can be used
with a variety of proximity fuses or the mechanical MK-339 timed fuse. The submunition is a 3.5-inch
spherical bomblet weighing 2.7 pounds with a 0.65-pound high-explosive warhead.

CBU-58 A/B

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

soft skinned vehicles and anti-personnel

The CBU-58 is loaded with 650 bomblets. These bomblets contain 5-gram titanium pellets, making them
incendiary and useful against flammable targets.

CBU-71 /B

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

used for area denial soft skinned vehicles and anti-personnel

The CBU-71/B is very similar to the CBU-58, carrying 650 baseball-
sized bomblets. However, the CBU-71 submunitions have a random
delay fuzing option making this cluster weapon great for area denial
against soft - skinned targets (light or no armor).

CBU-87 CEM

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

armor, anti-personnel and material

The CBU-87 is a 1,000-pound, Combined Effects Munitions
(CEM) for attacking soft target areas with detonating bomblets.
The BLU-97 is effective against armor, personnel and material,
containing a shaped charge, scored steel casing and zirconium ring for anti-armor, fragmentation and
incendiary capability.


CBU-97 SWF

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

tanks and armored vehicles

After release, a fuse causes the dispenser to disperse
the 10 submunitions, each stabilized by a parachute.
At a preset altitude a rocket fires, propelling the
submunition in an upward vector. As the
submunition climbs, it is spun to disperse the 4 internal skeet warheads randomly by centrifugal force. An
IR sensor in each warhead searches for a target, and upon discovery detonates over it, firing a kinetic
fragment. The fragment drives itself through the lightly armored top of the target. If no target is found, the
sensor detonates the warhead above ground to spray the battle field with a myriad of lethal fragments.



GBU-10

Range:

freefall

Guidance:

ballistic

Target:

Mobile hard, fixed soft,

fixed hard

The GBU-10 consists of an MK-84
2,000 pound bomb with an added
