Once on the ground, Special Forces soldiers can guide precision bombs of U.S. Air Force and Navy planes with a device that "paints" a laser signature on a target. That signature is used by laser-guided bombs to locate the target. I thought the Special Forces use the laser to range the target, which loads it into a handheld computer and uplinks the coordinates to the bombers and their JDAM targeting pods. The GPS coordinates then guide the bomb home to mama.
