Meet the JDAM: America's $24K Precision-Guided Munition
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- Technically speaking, JDAM refers to a kit that is bolted onto the U.S. military’s general-purpose Mk-80-series bomb and turns it into a GPS-guided weapon. It comes in three sizes, corresponding to different bomb weights: the 500lb Mk-82 bomb, the 1,000lb Mk-83 bomb, and the 2,000lb Mk-84 bomb.

Thanks - Наука та технологія
I was stationed at Edwards AFB, 412th EMS back in 1998 and worked as an ammo troop in the bomb dump. I was on the test team for the JDAM before it was implemented.
The quick strike JDAM is an insanely good idea.
Don't know why this wasn't in service decades ago?
Only $24k? What a deal!
*starts at $24k. Those upgrades will get ya though.
cost say 5k they charge tax payers 24k
I just wanna know if u could accidentally drop one of these while loading it and it won’t go off
@@kani6855
No, it wont
Modern munitions are built with insensitive explosives and fuzes to prevent such accidents
On the ground , there are also safety pins in pins that are not removed till the aircraft is ready to take off
The US military has enough accidents to where Insensitive munitions are required for everything
Undercoating = Extra. Lease option avail for qualified buyers
I built the bunkers for ALCM conversion.( Aircraft Launched Cruise Missiles). at Barksdale AFB in '86. SAC, MAC & TAC, I worked coast to coast on our military infrastructure for 30 years.
Great Video, THX Sam & Crew of U.S. M.N.🇺🇸
I was surprised to see a JDAM strapped to a Predator drone. Wow!
Nice upgrade from the LGB back in my Navy f-18 hornet days late 80"s !
My favourite bomb in combat flight simulators.
This was a great summary - thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
these Americans are on another level.
WE ARE! But our government is BIPOLAR and still run by idiotic politicians where one of them is a big fat PUZZY and the other is a RUSSIAN BOOTLICKER
This is what happens when you let your citizens be intelligent. Give them a job at Raytheon. Places like Russia and China lock up smart individuals that could possibly build such weapons usually as political prisoners. Those governments fear a smart citizen, whereas we employ them. Just look into “operation paperclip”
@@bbgcarsRussia didn't dare invade Ukraine with Trump in office, but he did twice with the last 2 democrat presidents. You don't have to be this ignorant because all of this information is available for you. You have let the media fool you way to easily.
They are on the same other level like the Russian Smart Bombs (unfortunately). These fly about 30 mls.
@@axwest1 Those Russian glide bombs are cheap trash and are said to have a high failure rate. There was a picture of a failed unexploded one in Ukraine and the add on wing kit looked like cheap old scrap metal cut with a sawzall. Just another example of them yet again trying to copy effective US ideas, as always.
I like the quick sync
Those are some pretty bombs
I think Ukraine needs some of those QuickSink devices...
if they pay for them to US citizens , not O'biden
Tell the GOP house Republicans do nothing Congress
@@randy-qf8pqCommunists supporter
Ukraine sucks with these bombs
The Russian Black Sea Fleet sinks anyway😉.
🇺🇦
Australia must have jdams missiles smart weapons good price 24grand very strong
Where's Eagle Dynamics at?? Need an update for DCS with this good info!
Somebody's got to do it.
You can buy a actual GPS/laser Guided Bomb with much longer range, way lesser than a $24000 kit.
Super cool and really interesting/impressive
But when the bomb is jammed, 24k gone.
It has inertial guidance backup
No, do you honestly think the US would honestly deploy a weapon that has no backup systems, so that if something goes wrong it could land on school of isis children instead of its original target?
They are powerful I like
Did you know, that those JDAM are jumed in Ukraine? It is non usable against modern army...,
If you don’t like being on the receiving end, don’t start picking fights you can’t win
For liberty and independence the people fight eaven worst than this.
Yes we should all accepts the oprresive colonizers
Average US military personnel thinks adding "Joint" in the name of the weapons would increase their lethality.
F15 Pilot: This is lightning 3-1 guidance systems are back online, standing by with a full payload of JDAMS, Requesting clearance.
Overlord: Lightning 3-1 you are cleared to engage
Gotta love our bombs!!!
USA don’t delivers bombs anymore to Ukraine, order from Mr Trump
Gotta love those taxes !
3:00 - Notice the rough-finish coating on these bombs (as well as the rolling carts they're strapped to).
These are Navy bombs, specially coated with flame retardant, to minimize having them "cook off" during an onboard fire event.
Age is always just a number matters is the performance
The flaps of such bombs can cause the bomb to hit a side wall of a dropped bomb. Soldiers forget to lubricate the servos, which is very important or else the bomb disappears.
A winged JDAM-ER was developed at Boeing Australia of which was an excellent idea.
Question? a powered 500lb PJDAM with a range of 300 miles ............ is it stealthy and can it fit in a F-35 bomb bay?
Boeing is working on the PJDAM as a private company initiative IIRC.
Similar to the Russian fab bombs except they have their own propulsion system further extending their range. Pretty cool but I honestly can’t tell what the difference this would be from a cruise missile.
Great JDAM bomb
swival propellers in froint even more accurate
I can haz a guess a system like this for bad drivers?
I wonder what will happened if JDAMs werw used without GPS? will they use a Laser Guidance Kit on a nose of the Bomb in case if GPS was jammed or unavailable?
Jdams have backup inertial guidance so if no gps is available or being jammed it still gets close to the programmed aim point
I believe they also have a home on jamming mode. In Iraq thee US used jdams to take out Iraqi jamming towers
They actually addressed this in the video.
Go Air Force!
The powered JDAM was a shocker I never heard of that before… it’s literally a Cruise bomb
I don't see a benefit of it over a cruise missile unless it's way way cheaper...
@@markbrisec3972 i suspect it would be less cheaper and easier to put together… not to mention the different variates of aircraft that can carry it.. like imagine the f-15 load with 12 of them.. or f-16… or even the f-35 and f-22 they all can carry JDAMs but none can carry the massive cruise missiles like the b-52
The B1-B carries 125,000 lbs of these. Lets do the math! Mk-82 ? 250 individual Bombs. They load these onto "Rotary Bomb Racks" so the plane can take its sweet time on Target to deploy.
After JDAMs there will be Peace..
The only military that runs in front of trucks.
What about the mother of all bombs
These can be more effective than tomahawks they can be tossed at max alt+ mach++ distance top secret, in mass! All we need is a GPS coordinates to plug in!
And then "Pantsir" goes: "Hold my beer"..
Funny in Ukraine pantsir is silent 😂
@@tronlegacy2664 Who told you that? JDAMs are shot down pretty often there. When ukrainians find what something they are able to launch it with..
@@tronlegacy2664 Is Pantsir silent in Ukraine?!
Lol, they work there at the speed of transporting ammunition, hundreds of targets are destroyed every day, from reconnaissance drones to Hymars ballistic missiles.
You can find a video of Pantsirs defending Donetsk shooting down the entire package of Khaimars missiles
What if there’s heavy clouds the satellite would be useless..
It isn't that they're guided, it's that they're guided _individually._
Apart from when they use laser guidance; for that you need one laser for each aimpoint.
Oh so that’s what hit the towers.
Thats what for birthday
Jdam or RV. Only $24,000. But I'd have to sell my truck for a fighter plane. Hard choice.
They look bigger on Battlefield V
JDAM is insane. Go US Air Force...!! Go US Navy...!! Go US Army...! Go US Marines...!! US NAVY Veteran. ✌💪
Heil America
this it's very cute
now put some foldable winglets and a small jet engine on that and you now get 500 mile range!
and Putin and Xi suddenly need a change of underwear.
Single use 1 flight only hardware, sounds exactly up boeings alley. At least those clowns are good for one thing i guess...
Yeah it’s a bomb and it explodes.
Thank god Ukraine is being well armed.
Did you know, that those JDAM are jumed in Ukraine? It is non usable against modern army...,
24k woow it’s so cheap
Why can't Ukrainians attach JDAMs to huge hydrogen balloons and let it glide long ways, when released from 100,000 feet or before the balloon bursts?
The balloon is transparent to radar and a bomb rising is too small and slow to be picked up by air defense. The prevailing wind in Ukraine is from west to east.
When Chernobyl happened most of Russia got the fall out cuz of this wind. That's how I learned about it.
it needs a sophisticated delivery platform and if you managed to make an automated one its not something you want floating into enemy territory
A modern air defense system can see a tennis ball at a distance of 30 kilometers. The Russians have air defense systems, almost all Russian air defense systems also have an optical guidance channel
Praying for our men and women around the world and there family waiting back home for their return home .(WWG1WGA)
Will the US provide the promised weapons to Ukraine and Israel?
Send them to Ukraine, immediately!!

Only $24k? What a deal!
