A strange thought: When's this thing likely to hit the FMS market?

At some point, (depending on the specific target) when you have a
bomb
so accurate that it can actually hit a target, there may be little need
for
it to actually go "bang" to do its job. The jets parked near schools in
the
first Iraq war come to mind.


in Iraq the RAF and USAF used bombs filled with concrete for
just this reason.
