Characteristics of Mk.82 Bombs

The Mk.82 is a universal aircraft bomb with a weight of 227 kg (500 lbs), which entered service with the US armed forces at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s. It made its combat debut during the Vietnam conflict, and was subsequently used in virtually every engagement involving US forces: from the Gulf War, through NATO actions in the Balkans, to missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. The Mk.82 is part of the Mark 80 bomb family and serves as the basis for many modern precision bombs, such as the GBU-12 Paveway II.
