Description The Paveway™ family of precision guided bombs has been the leader in precision guided weapons for more than a quarter century. Paveway™ bombs have been put to the test in every major conflict and proved themselves, time and again, as the weapon of choice by the end-users. Paveway™ II Laser Guided Bombs (LGB) home on reflected laser energy directed on the target. This proven design drastically reduces the number of munitions required to destroy a target and features accuracy, reliability and cost-effectiveness — previously unattainable with conventional weapons. The universal nature of the laser guidance kits, an added feature, enables general purpose bombs to be readily converted to precision, tactically effective munitions. Paveway™ III LGB enhances the Paveway™ II LGB’s proven capability with increased delivery range, low-level release optimization and greater seeker Benefits g The Paveway™ family of weapons includes laser-only or dual-mode GPS/laser guidance – GPS/INS guidance for all weather – Laser guidance for precision and man-in-the-loop g Options to fit all MK-80 series warheads as well as BLU-109, BLU-113, BLU-116 and BLU-122 warheads g Low cost and high reliability g Accuracy exceeds specifications g Integrates with any tactical aircraft g Combat proven lock-on distance. It flies an adaptive trajectory, which optimizes endgame energy for increased accuracy and enhanced warhead effectiveness. The latest developments in the Paveway™ line are the Enhanced Paveway™ II Dual Mode GPS/ Laser Guided Bombs (DMLGB) and the Enhanced Paveway™ III DMLGB. These are among the world’s first dual-mode laser/GPS guided bombs. This innovation combines the accuracy and flexibility of traditional laser-guided weapons with the all-weather capability of GPS guidance. The result is a weapon that decreases the required sortie count and weapon inventory while simultaneously increasing the mission success rate. Both the Enhanced Paveway™ II DMLGB and Enhanced Paveway™ III DMLGB, now in production, were combat proven in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Paveway Laser and GPS/Laser Precision Guided Bombs Paveway™ is the world standard for low-cost, highly reliable precision guided bombs to fit any scenario.
