5. General Purpose Bombs
The 540lb (312kg) and 1000lb (505kg) general purpose bombs can be dropped as unguided freefall bombs or fitted with a retarder unit, allowing aircraft to drop a bomb at low level over the target and get clear before detonation.
Both bombs have three modes of detonation: above a target in airburst mode, impact detonation, or post-impact detonation after a pre-set delay.
