Iran set for smart bomb production
Thu, 23 Aug 2007 02:51:58
Iranian-made smart bomb is equipped with guided system.
Iran’s Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics is ready for production of a 2,000-pound (900 kg) laser- guided smart bomb.
The precision ordnance, code-named ‘Qased’ (messenger) has been successfully test-fired by F-4 and F-5 fighter jets.
Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar is to inaugurate production line of the entirely Iranian made bomb, next week.
The defense minister said last year that Iran has joined the few countries that possess precision-guided missile technology.
The bomb was successfully test-fired during large-scale war games in northwestern Iran last September.

Who needs smartbombs when you got kamikazes?
IOW, the Iranian Air Force has to get off the ground in order to use it.
IOW, it will be a piece of hazardous litter on the ramp of an unusable airfield surrounded by wrecked and burning F4 and F5 planes shortly after commencement of hostilities.
Fine with me.
Still, one has to wonder just how "smart" it is, considering it's built to the Islamic definition of "smart". It probably has a 'Allah wills it" guidence system, just like the Kassam missles they send to the palestinians.
Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think our USAF can handle them!
Very impressive. /s
