Product Details

Syhart AD028-48 :

This kit consists of two 3D printed resin parts in very high resolution, a decals sheet and an A6 instruction page for a pair of « GBU-49 ».

- GBU-49s are laser / GPS guided bombs 500lb class (250kg).

Used on :
- body Mk.82 : Mirage 2000C/D/N, Rafale B/C, Gripen, MQ-9 Reaper, and others…
- body CBEMS : Super-Etendard, Rafale M, Atlantique 2 (ATL2)…

Able to strike static or moving targets with low hardness in all weather conditions. The bomb is guided to the designated target by a laser, "illuminated" by the plane dropping the bomb, or another plane, or even by troops on the ground, Also GPS guided for aircrafts not equiped with laser pod, and in case of bad weather.

The Rafale may be equiped by following laser designator pods :
- "Damoclès" Pod - (Syhart AD010)
- "Talios" (PDL NG) Pod - (Syhart AD011)
- "Sniper" AN/AAQ-33 Pod (export only) - (available soon)

The Rafale (all versions) carry up to six GBU-49, installed under the AT 730 triple pylons (Syhart AD003)

Note : "body Mk.82" or "body CBEMS" what is it ?

The AASM 250, GBU-12 and GBU-49 exist in this two variants :

- The guided bombs are based on standard unguided bombs (the same as those used during the vietnam war) which a "guidance kit" has been added ; with tail, and guiding head (laser, optique, inertielle, GPS...) to make them extremely precise.

- So what are the differences between "body Mk.82" and "body CBEMS" ?

The same guidance kit can be mounted on differents types of bombes, in most of case, the american standards bombs are used (Mk.82, 83 or 84, BLU-...), but these bombs do not meet the safety standards aboard aircraft carriers such as the Charles-de-Gaulle (R91).

The CBEMS bombs (Secure Multiple Effects Bomb Body), were developed for this purpose, so they are mainly used by the Navy. They have a slightly shorter body than a Mk.82 with a cylindrical section, so the guide heads are a bit longer in order to keep the same aerodynamic characteristics.

Air force = body Mk.82
Marine = body CBEMS
(exceptions are always possible)

They have no printing irregularities, the fins are thin but strong. The parts are protected in a «cage» allowing transport and storage without breakage, including fins.
