The JDAM can be used to lauch a similar attack. It would be used to guide a canister with specialised bomblets.
Teh Tomahawk-D can also do this.

Still, the video of a Tornado using the JP.233 on an airfield, played on teh History channel was sweet.
A mile-long strip was cratered and mined in one sweep.

The new Tornado GR-4 automatically caries the HARM or Martel ARM along with 2 sidwinders and the Jp.233.

Seen a couple of films myself, very impressive!

It’s the high cost in pilots that concerns me, using the old Cold War/Nato tactics from GW1 isn’t necessary anymore. The sooner the MOD gets the Storm Shadow/Apache missile to the RAF the better.
