added to 500lb and 2000lb class of

accuracy of unguided, general-purpose
bombs. The GPS guidance allows for
delivery in adverse weather. The laser
guidance mode of these weapons allows

The built-up weapons with components
are Unclassified. Information revealing
employment tactics, operational
parameters, the probability of destroying
targets, vulnerabilities regarding
countermeasures and the
electromagnetic environment is
classified up to Confidential.
13. The Joint Direct Attack Munition
(JDAM) is a guidance tail kit that
converts unguided free-fall bombs into
accurate, adverse weather ‘‘smart’’
munitions. With the addition of a new
tail section that contains an inertial
navigational system and a global
positioning system guidance control
unit, JDAM improves the accuracy of
unguided, general-purpose bombs in
any weather condition. JDAM can be
launched from very low to very high
altitudes in a dive, toss and loft, or in
straight and level flight with an on-axis
or off-axis delivery. JDAM enables
multiple weapons to be directed against
single or multiple targets on a single
pass. The JDAM AUR and all of its
components are unclassified, technical
data for JDAM is classified up to Secret.
14. If a technologically advanced
adversary were to obtain knowledge of
the specific hardware and software, the
information could be used to develop
countermeasures, which might reduce
