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.
