The Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) is a long range precision incendiary solution that widens the capabilities of armed forces.
Highly effective and accurate over long ranges, the GLSDB is designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s and tomorrow’s armed forces.
Capable of conducting reverse slope engagements and defeating a range of targets, from hardened facilities to soft-skinned assets, the GLSDB adds another dimension to armed forcesґ capabilities.
Developed in partnership with Boeing, the GLSDB is a flexible, precise and reliable weapon that exemplifies the value of Saab’s thinking edge.
Features
With 360 degrees target engagement ability, the GLSDB provides commanders and planners with a flexible weapon which complements existing ballistic trajectory weapons. The weapon builds upon the successful Small Diameter Bomb Increment (SDB I) and the Multiple Launch Rocket System rockets.
The SDB is a 250-pound class weapon with an Advance Anti-Jam Global Positioning System-aided Intertial Navigation System, combined with a multipurpose penetrating blast-and-fragmentation warhead and a programmable electronic fuze.
The GLSDB provides:
Increased range
Accuracy to within one meter
All angle, all aspect attack - even targets behind the launch point
Multiple rockets to act against multiple targets, with near simultaneous impact
All weather, 24/7 capability
Terrain avoidance, such as mountains
Cave breaching capability
Launches from hidden or protected positions to avoid detection
Programmable fuze for impact and delay fuzing for deep penetraion or proximity height-of-burst
SDB Focused Lethality Munition (FLM) variant is also an option for low collateral damage
Airframe-specifications are specific to the GBU-39/B
Warhead: Carbon fiber case with conical steel nose for ultra-low fragmentation
Weight: Case assembly - 32.7 kgs
Explosive Fill: 57.6 kgs Insensitive Munition Certified
Fuze: Integrated Electronic Safe/Arm Fuze System (ESAF) Impact and Delayed Settings with Height of Burst Sensor
Guidance set
Intertial Navigation System (INS)/Global Positioning System (GPS)
Anti-jam and Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM)
.The weapon is designed to be launched out of a multiple launch rocket system (MLRS), used by a number of US allies already, avoiding the need to design a new launch system. That MLRS can hold six weapons per pod, with two pods per vehicle
There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics
"After the uprising of the 17th of June the Secretary of the Writers Union had leaflets distributed in the Stalinallee
stating that the people had forfeited the confidence of the government and could win it back only by redoubled efforts.
Would it not be easier in that case for the government to dissolve the people and elect another?" -Bertolt Brecht
I remember very vividly, a few months after the famous pacifist resolution at the Oxford Union visiting Germany and having a talk with a prominent leader of the young Nazis. He was asking about this pacifist motion and I tried to explain it to him. There was an ugly gleam in his eye when he said, "The fact is that you English are soft". Then I realized that the world enemies of peace might be the pacifists - Robert Hamilton Bernays -

🇺🇸 🇺🇦 Speaking @CSIS, Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment LaPlante indicates the Boeing-Saab produced Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb has proven largely ineffective in Ukraine.
