Abstract
Requirements of the modern battlefield enforce the use of precision assets of striking (PAS) including above all the guided bombs. Their high price compels the user for employment of exercise PAS equivalents in the training process. The article presents requirements for modern guided bombs. A general division of airborne bombs was made regarding the purpose, the method of use and the manner of bomb's movement. The specifics of dropping for guided and classic bombs are presented. The basic systems of guidance and control for precision assets of strike are reviewed. The article presents basic technical solutions used in a guided airborne exercise bomb (G-AEB) developed by the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), and compares them with specifications for production and using of newly designed exercise bombs of this family.
